Pr3mu5 Posted August 23, 2017 Share Posted August 23, 2017 Hi everyone, So I'm not new to wargames but am new to Warhammer AoS and never played WHF. I have however looked longingly at Skaven models for years and have taken the plunge and managed to get a hold of the Skaven half of the Spire of Dawn set for a good price. Now I've built it all and added a couple of units I just really like the models for and am not too sure how legal a list it could make and/or what to add next. So I currently have Queek Warlock Engineer 2 Rat Ogres with master 40 clan rats Warpfire thrower Poison wind mortar And have now added 20 Stormvermin And 2 Doomwheels (simply because they look great) So are all his units in one army legal or do I have to pick a clan and stick to it? And how exactly does the FOC (borrowing from my knowledge of 40k) work? Secondly, what would be good next additions? Baring in mind though I'm not too fond of the Clan Pestilens look but all the other clans... Verminus, Skryre, Mouder especially are great aesthetically. I'm literally in a position now where I just want to buy everything and in need of a little guidance. Your help would be much appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dez Posted August 23, 2017 Share Posted August 23, 2017 You have a good start, more Clan Rats and Stormvermin would be good. Doomwheels look awesome, their performance is lackluster unless used as distraction or chaff. Stormfiends are great, so are warpfire throwers. on my phone so not a complete list by any means.

orion976 Posted August 23, 2017 Share Posted August 23, 2017 Ditto on the Stormfiends, a tough unit that look awesomeSent from my SM-N9005 using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James McPherson Posted August 23, 2017 Share Posted August 23, 2017 Eshin stuff is good, Verminlord is a must , jezzails are useful, warp lightning cannon is great. Some of the old compendium characters combo well like Tretch (stormvermin) and Throt (stormfiends and rat ogres) are good if you can find them on ebay or convert them. I get the feeling Skaven are going to be a lot better now that we can use allies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder how it will change, but imo the 2 best are the deceiver and the warbringer. The warpseer is also good as he is so cheap and is a tank (if you dont throw the orb). But this may change in the new ghb2017 meta. I couldn't choose between warbringer or deceiver, so i bought 2 verminlords and built both haha. Woops.

I don't even like to magnetise to be honest (2 thanquols here - one with braziers the other one with throwers, and 2 verminlords so far:)) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

przenicki1987 Posted August 27, 2017 Share Posted August 27, 2017 I was also thinking about brass orb for artifact and becouse u cant put clan rats as battleline in skryre and u need just to play grand alliance chaos i would try to take kairos and then u have on ur screeming bell 100% auto kill enemy hero or monster in 8 inches for once a game Wysłane z mojego SM-G928F przy użyciu Tapatalka Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
