Okies the idea is to use the Chieftains and Warlord to absorb the damage on the unit.

Front rank
Chieftain 1 Tricksters Helm, Shield (3+ Armor save, 6+ parry) attacker re-rolls successful rolls to wound.
Chieftain 2 Fencers Blades, Dragonhelm (WS10, 4+ AS)
Chieftain 3 Worlds Edge Armour, Halberd, (4+AS with 1 re-roll, ignores 1st wound Strength 6 or higher)
Chieftain 4 Glittering Scales, Rival hide Talisman, Shield (-1 to hit, 5+ AS and 6+ parry, force 1 model to re-roll successful hits)
Chieftain 5 Charmed Shield, Talisman of preservation 4+ Ward Save

Warlord on War-litter takes up 2 spots (Warpstone Armor build).

Chieftain BSb War Banner for Static combat res
Stormvermin Banner of Clan Superiority extra static combat res

Another possibility might be 2 Warlitter Warlords and a single Chieftain.

Dunno.....none of them seem particularly unkillable in my opinion.
More like a large points gift to the opponent.
If the solution isn't 'Rat ogres' then I'm afraid there's not really a problem to start with ... :-D

I agree with only 2 wounds might be better off using Warlords or assassins.

unkillable doesn't apply to anything skaven. As you say your probably better of with assassins and guarantee some hits at the very least against a unit.

You're better off avoiding close combat, and feeding them a pile if slaves.

slaves are limited in the tourni though so fun times ahead with massive complex comp packs to come.
