Does anyone get anything out of these? I've used them in several games now, and I think I've managed to kill a griffon once and three other models total. The vast majority of the time they do nothing for me at all. My plan is to use them to shoot into combat with slaves. How do you guys feel about them?

They are VERY annoying, especially with their ability to Stand and Shoot. They can kill a massive swath of a charging unit and potentially panic it away.

Some games they will be amazing, some games they will do nothing at all. Just like the entire Skaven book.

Pretty much what Vulcan said. One game all they did was light themselves on fire, run into my general and then explode. Another game I hit a block of Greatswords dead on and paniced them off the board.
