Hi all,

Just a quick inquiry; how big do you go for your units of Clanrats? Is it just a case of the bigger the better, or do you prefer a certain size?

I'm trying to figure out how to divide mine up; I've got 94 Clanrats, all with hand weapons and shields, as well as 2 warpfire throwers and 2 poisoned wind mortars, which, as far as I can see, I have to field as attached units. How would you guys divide that up?

Get 6 more Clanrats from somewhere and do 2 blocks of 50. Skaven work better in large units. They basically epitomise 'horde' gameplay, even more than Undead.

I like fielding my Slaves in blocks of 50 and my Clanrats (as character bunkers) in blocks of 40 with weapon team attached. The weapon team then follows the slaves and shoots into combat until they die.
