Hello once again mates. After playing with my wood elves for a while I have decided to shelve them for a little bit to focus on another army that I have always wanted to do (probably until the new book comes out sad to say, they just need to get more competitive). A while back I started to build a Clan Skryre themed Skaven army but for some reason figured High Elves would be the better route to go

(dont get me wrong the High Elves are good but after attending a tournament where out of the 16 players I think 5 or 6 were High Elves I decided it was time for a new army, hence my Wood Elves) and want to resurrect my sure to be invincible Skryre Skaven (unless the failure of my underlings proves otherwise

). This is a tentative attempt at re-doing this list so as usual all thoughts and Ideas are welcome, thanks again mates!

-x2 Doomwheels
TOTAL ARMY: 2500 POINTS
L+H: With Ikit and 3 Level 1 Warlock Engineers (all with warp lighting) that should give me plenty of both magic defense and output against a wide variety of opponents especially with tons of warp lightning being thrown about. The
BSB has a 3+ armor save and is strength 4 with a warplock pistol for the hell of it (had 8pts. to spare). And thanks to Verminous Valor i can refuse a challenge and still get all the
BSB benefits.
CORE: 130 total infantry may be small for a Skaven army however the fact that they all have wonderful mix warpfire throwers and ratling guns (seriously a fething flame thrower and gattling gun in fantasy! ) should help even the odds if i ever come across armies that outnumber me or even have just plain better infantry. Each unit also has a hero/character leading it which should also help in the long run as each unit can dish out its own respectful amount of punishment each turn. also being run in ranks of 5x5 (6x5 with the stormvermin) will help with my leadership.
SPECIAL: 12 Warplock Jezzails to target elite units such as knights, elite infantry and warmachines. Two units of 6 enable flexibility and a decent enough amount of shots where a few should hit.
RARE: This explains itself for the most part. Two Doomwheels doing what they do best which is beating the ever living hell out of opponents with two Warp Lightning Cannons to back them up. I am also considering dropping the cannons for Plaugeclaw Catapaults but will keep it as it is for now.
