Hi all, sorry for another noob question. Can you rank up a rat dart in a single file line? Basically 5 ranks of giant rats and the packmaster in the 6th rank, all single file? Mostly I see people running them in 2 wide formation. Was curious if the 1 wide was illegal or if there was just better strategic reasons for running them that way. Thanks. |

2x3 is easier to move and position. Also, as redirectors which facing is where is important. a 2:3 ratio of front to flank is easier to use against your opponent than a 1:5 ratio. |

Running 2x3 also gives you more attacks, as the 3rd rank gets to strike due to the Packmaster having a whip and the Giant Rats having the Fight in Extra Ranks rule according to the Skaven FAQ. |

Oh okay. Cool, thanks. That makes more sense. Sorry again for these kind of questions. I'm sure I'll have a ton more so I apologize in advance. I've been a longtime big fan of all things Skaven but I've only ever played a few games of WFB actually. My games group has always been more card game oriented. But recently another friend started playing WFB so it looks like finally I'll be getting to play. Now I just gotta learn the rules better heh Oh yeah, and build and paint more stuff.

As a friend usually says. There are no stupid questions only stupid people asking questions. Come to think of it that's not as uplifting as he pretends....
