hmmm... these green-skins are giving me trouble must-now take care of this quick-quick. hmmm... but how? Those rat ogres that I bought-stole might help but that shooty-spear thrower might kill-spear them. Those gutter runners I hired-bribed will help to but they were for Chieftain Vitt. I can take care of him latter. hmmm... must think-plan this quick-quick.

Ok so there's the story so now for the lists...

List A) 500pt.

Chieftain Vitt: General
Chieftain Voss: BSB

Vitt's green-furs: 25 CRs; shields, musician, standard, WFT
Varnik's Tunnel-scum: 50 slaves; musician

Voss's Ogres: 2 Rogres 1 PM

List B ) 500pt.


Chieftain Vitt: General
Chieftain Voss: BSB

Vitt's green-furs: 25 CRs; shields, musician, standard, WFT
Varnik's Tunnel-scum: 50 slaves

The Guttersneaks: 5 GRs; slings, poisoned attacks

List C) 600pt.


Chieftain Vitt: General, Blade of Nerglitch or Banner of Banner of Verminous Scurrying for Voss
Chieftain Voss: BSB

Vitt's green-furs: 25 CRs; shields, musician, standard, WFT
Varnik's Tunnel-scum: 50 slaves; musician

The Guttersneaks: 5 GRs; slings, poisoned attacks
Voss's Ogres: 2 Rogres 1 PM

Ok my question is should I do list A or B? and is C an ok list? This is going to fight O&G.

Any comments, critics and suggestions welcome :swarm:
Even if you win the race your still a rat.

all three dont look to shabby,
however B and C have preference due to gutter runners. Would your opponent be fielding a mage?

List C, I like best. None are bad. The good thing is that at this point level, Skaven have some very good options.

I must take into account the orc-things mage-wizard but how to conquer him? Must think-plot this quick-quick.

A lvl 2 orc shaman will more than likely be on the field and he will be hoping for the foot of gork stompy killy spell.

OK if i take list C then I have 10 points free for my heroes what should I give them?

You might want to think about some kind of magic defense. Orcs & Goblins are one of the few races that can field decent magic at this low point value. Speaking from someone who plays only low point value games, magic can play a huge part in a win or loss.

If your opponent is allowed to essentially free cast, you will have no choice but to eat all of his spells, which could mean disaster for you. Following that train of thought, you might want to take a Warlock Engineer, maybe upgraded to Level 2 with a Doomrocket for fun or a Warp-Energy Condenser for reliability.
Yes-yes, o most clever of generals.

hmmm... The Warlord of Gritus has point-idea there he does, may have to promote him then kill-kill. But what to do about this? Maybe my other adviser-friends of the under empire can help-suggest on what to send those orc-things.

Warlock LvL1
Chieftain Voss: BSB

Vitt's green-furs: 25 CRs; shields, musician, standard, WFT
Varnik's Tunnel-scum: 40 slaves

The Guttersneaks: 5 GRs; slings, poisoned attacks

My preference would be to find 20 points to get the warlock engineer a warp energy condenser. If your opponent fields squig's you will be in trouble without some decent tanged attacks (i know you already have slings on the gutter runners, but its nice to have a back up plan).

Varnik, do you know what your opponent is taking?

That could help us narrow it down quite a bit...

At 500 pts. you could even afford a single Warp Lightning Cannon... a little expensive, yes. But it could potentially be devastating, especially if your opponent is footslogging.

Well his list has evolved a lot but for the most part he does not leave home without about 18 orc boy big-unz, 20 night goblins with 2 fanatics and a lvl 2 orc shaman, oftentimes he has 2-3 trolls and/or a spear chukka squigs for teh occasional laugh.

With your opponent's list, you're on the right track. You'll definitely want to outnumber him. Gutter Runners could take care of the Spear Chukka, which would threaten your ranks. If you go Clanrats vs. Night Goblins, the fight could be pretty close, but Fanatics could swing it in his favor. If he takes the Trolls, I see those as your biggest problem.

Do you have a plan of Attack?
Yes-yes, o most clever of generals.
