Hey its my first post!

Chieftain - BSB

Warlock - Level 2, Warp Condenser, Doomrocket

Warlock - Brass Orb

35 Clanrats - Music, Standard, Shields
30 Clanrats - Music, Standard, Shields
30 Clanrats - Music, Standard, Shields

25 Slaves

26 Plaguemonks - Music, Plague banner

Doomwheel
Doomwheel

Warp Cannon

1998.5 Points

Mutate: Also! Armies I will mostly play will be Lizardmen and Tomb Kings

What are your ideas/restrictions? Are you playing themed or happy to field anything?

My suggestion is to drop the warlock to lvl 1 and use the points elsewhere. Perhaps increase the slave unit?
Other than that it looks alright :P.

I'm happy to field anything, though clan Skyre would be nice.

first off, a good early list building rule to follow as skaven is to have 1 model for every 10 points. so in your case you should have 200 models.

your sitting on 154.

engineer should be level 1, otherwise he will just fight for power dice with your greyseer

2 units of 50 slaves with music and (optional) shields. would help your model count

droping a unit of clanrats, buffing the other units to 40 man and buffing the plague unit size are all good ideas.

+1 to what Mathu said.

In addition consider buying your BSB some magic banner and if not some protective gear. In both cases slap him a shield. It's cheaper than dirt.

Here is an updated army roster, taking suggestions into account. I'm limited to max 160 clanrats/slaves right now because that is all I own! The model count on this one is 215.

How should units of Skavenslaves be created? Like if its 50 models, should it have 10 ranks in order to be steadfast for longer? Or 10 files to get horde attacks?

My blade shall cause your death
The list looks fine but I suggest you remove the effects from each of the items and units before mods do.
I have awoken, so have my pets.

My blades will be upon you soon.

Then you will be bathed in warp-fire.

much better, run the slaves 5 wide 8 deep, slaves are not there to kill, they are there to stall and for strategic purposes.
