replace plague censer with a flail(your just hurting more of your guys than the enemies) and id drop both tail weapons not really worth it. Warlord is fine with SoM but weeping blade works too if you want him character/multi wound hunting. Now that i think of it, dump poison too...with a flail your str 6 and it doesn't help plague censer. Replace razor standard with plague banner (personal preference, both work fine). Also which units are the characters going to be in?
SHINY!!!!! urgh....its only gold...needs silver.....

Yeah the censur on the furnace means that all of your men in contact with it every turn take toughness test.

he probably meant lvl2 although if you have a condensor lvl 2 is a waste of 35 pts right cos all you want him to do is cast warp lightning?

imho Yes, level 2 is almost always a waste on warlocks.

the way i do it when i dont go with seer+ bell is 2xseer :) i never get warlods i dont know way i think they are out of the skaven skyle if you want CC bell with seer is MUCH better than warlord if you want magic 2xseer is the way

...tht was perhaps the single most random post I have ever read.

yes having 2 grey sears allows him to take 13th twice, are you advocating he take 2 grey sears? there are numerous reasons to take or not take a second sear, don't just randomly spout that your should take one, back it up.

Bring the unit of 50 clanrats to 35 and add 30 slaves for the points you gain. More models = more power !!!!
Also i'd drop the shields on your slaves, they are quite the waste of points, every 4 shield give an extra slave and you only make 1 in 6 safes on a 6+.
And indeed try getting a dawn stone on that warlord so you can re-roll your armour saves.

only against strength 3, there is decent reason to take shields but most of the time no.

Normally, two spellcasters within an army cannot take the same spell, and, unless I'm missing something, that should apply to The Curse of the Horned Rat (aka the Dreaded Thirteenth) as well.

Do not give the Doomrocket to a Warlock Engineer with spellcasting powers. What if there's a misfire? The Doomrocket should always go on a cheap, ordinary, naked 15-pt Warlock Engineer. If you want the Warp-Energy Condenser in your army, get yourself another Warlock Engineer, giving it Level One magic; no need to spring for Level Two, since this Warlock Engineer's entire destiny is always just to cast Warp Lightning in every possible turn.
