Tale of OG Gamers - Skaven

[Tom Hale]

Right ho, looks like i've ended up with the skaven out of several sets of the island of blood, and i'd thought it would be good to fill out a full army for them, and to get them done nice and slowly over the year on this 'tail' 

for my 600 pt list is something like;

warlock engineer with some toys
30 slaves with muso
25 clanrats with full command and shields and a warpfire thrower
2 rat ogers and a packmaster
doooooomwheel  (because i'm all about the hobby)

that gives me a mix of things to play about with (but still a fair number of bodies done)

[Garzini]

are you planning on making a Hellpit Abomination at some point ?

[Dave]

He's already said he's all about the hobby!  Tom, don't you know that under 8th the doomwheel is only considered 'good' rather than 'ridiculous'.

[fatolaf]

They are at least easier to catch in 8th ed, good luck with the ratties Tom , what theme are you going for?

[Dave]

what theme are you going for?

Since his stardom on 2gamer radio I'm assuming he'll be adopting the 'winning is a theme'?!

[Tom Hale]

@ garzini: not any time soon, not a big fan of the background for it if I'm honest and double cannon + double wheel looks good

@ Ol: thankie sir, need to get into the background a bit more, but I'm not a fan of pestiline, love the skyre side of things. That and the idea of just hordes of slaves and clanrats in a tide of fir

@ dave: yes. Yes it is

[Tom Hale]

I now have an idea of what I want the finished army to look like. Something of the order of;

Grey seer on bell with toys
Chieftan bsb
Warlock engineer lv2 with toys
40 clan rats to push bell
35 clanrats with warp fire thrower
35 clanrats with warp fire thrower
45 slaves
3 'darts' of 5 giant rats 1 pack master
6 gutter runners with poison slings
Abomo
2 warp lightning cannons

[Steve H]

3 'darts' of 5 giant rats 1 pack master

Bent!

Good luck with the log though dude... remember 10 days 'til first submission!

What's your first months stuff gonna be then mate?

I think a block of clan rats and a weapons team. The problem is all my stuff in in Sussex and I won't get it till the end of the week. So I'll have 4 days......no problem !
