Bell will anchor my line and face off against the opponents other core units. Warlock will accompany the 25x Clanrats and proceed to take on Special Units or flank anything it can.

The Rat Ogres will flank the Bell unit to provide a hammer and/or stall/charge opposing hammer unit. I watched 2 games now with an Ogre Gnawtooth unit (1 time had Poisoned, other had Regen) and the unit was pretty solid and racked up a lot of wounds per turn.

The Globadiers will do a little character or knight hunting and attempt to take out high toughness targets.

Slap the Warp Lightning Cannon on a flank, take 1 turn to move it up, and proceed to utilize enfilade fire downrange (if I don't have a hill of course).

Slaves will drove in front of the Ogres to ward away incoming enemy threats and frenzy pullers. Also another unit of slave will probably accompany the 25xClanrats and Monks to do the same.

My big mystery is the Monk unit. While 30 Monks seems pretty solid, I'm not sure having the Banner of Clan Superiority is worth its weight in gold yet. Seeing as this unit has NO armor and very vulnerable to missile attacks, I'm worried about getting these guys charging into combat and sticking around for the entirety of the battle. I think having the Censer Bearers stick close by is a good idea for a hammer unit. Another big question I have is whether to have the Plague Priest stick with the Monks or the CB's.

I'm really liking a lot of the Plague spells and want to do my best of getting either Bless with Filth (Unit w/in 12" gets Poisoned Attacks, 7+) or Wither (Enemy Unit w/in 12" @ -1 T, 8+). I figured if my Priest can get either of those or both and just concentrate on getting those spells off every turn it would provide a HUGE benefit to this army.

I'm thinking the Grey Seer will double dip in both Skaven Lores and take the 13'th Spell as his basic. There's not a single spell in either lore that I can't find a great use for yet and I think having a lvl 4 throwing Scorch, Wither, Warp Lightning, or Plague every where over the battlefield is a TREMENDOUS advantage.

Let me know what you think
