Gotta say, apart from losing Rabid Fever (sob) it's all pretty damn good! The Verminlord is a straight up badass! Plus the Furnace is genuinely good now on its own!!! Having a save on the Monks now is just weird haha, gonna take some getting used to.
-
I'd be fully on board for Rat Ogors to become the new filth!
-
Skaven deserve their own op 'broken' unit! Make Monks great again
-
Is it too much to hope they'll leave the Plague Monk scroll exactly as it is......and give them the benefit of Overwhelming Mass!?

I love seeing what pestilens players take in their mixed skaven lists besides the 3 groups of 20 clanrats, it shows what playstyles they favor.
For example in place of your Moulder units I have the same list but with 2 units of Gutter Runners and a Screaming Bell
Yeah, was also toying with maybe running a Warp Lightning Cannon.
Tried the Poison Mortar Launchers too a few times but they did ****** all, so have dropped them for more bodies!

All the Pestilens units are ready, would mean painting a ton if clanrats though!

From the Chaos FAQ 1.4 Age of Sigmar.
Q: If a Skaven Deathrunner is your general, or has an artefact
of power or a command trait, do these things apply to its
illusionary twin?
A: Yes.Cunning Deceiver and Crown of Conquest is what I've played the last 5 games for an almost completely verminous army, just letting me spam the warlord's ability along with the Verminlord Warbringer. The Deathrunner also gets a net -2 to shoot it because of the new "look out sir" so keep em' as close as you want to those clan rats. I struggled so much with low bravery in the recent past. It hurts like hell. I say the new Crown of Conquest is the single greatest thing Mixed Skaven can get right now. This just might carry me all the way to the much needed Skaven battletome release down the road (rumored).
Sounds like a very cunning plan indeed! Will defo give the Crown of Conquest a go when i give my newly acquired Deathrunner a go

Sadly Clanrats have to be taken as a group of either 20 or 40, but they're super cheap so it isn't a bother. Ally 1 or 2 groups of 40, or 3 groups of 20. As for the bell, it should still be 200pts, same as last edition?
You're right, I thought I'd read that it had gone up in points,but was mistaken. Mmm seems a bit swingy to rely on it and hope it'll summon the Verminking though. Fun if it does though haha

Deathrunner. The Crown of Conquest. Give 'em a command trait (as a general). It just gives me tingles. Quite frankly, good in any general chaos army.
Does that mean both models, the copy and original count as having the artifact? Naughty!

Hey there mate, if I had to recomend my top 5 units to ally to Clan Pestilens id have to go with...
- Screaming Bell
- Arch Warlock
- Clanrats
- Clanrats
- Clanrats
Clanrats do two things well. They form a wall to protect assets and they squat on objectives. As a pestilens player you should be playing to the strengths of your army (Plague Monks) and working to ally in choices that best compliment them. This is why i prefer not to ally Skryre weaponry and only take the Arch Warlock to tournaments rather than just general games. Clanrats will protect your Plague Monks and hold objectives while your monks run up the table and lay the pain. Give it a try sometime and let me know how you find it.
Will do, cheers dude. Do you find they work best in big blobs or more as multiple groups of 10 acting as chaff/screens to absorb charges?
The screaming bell looks tempting just sucks it went up in points.

Hey dude,
Really interesting post, must say I've always dismissed the Chaos allegiance as trash but reading this may give it a go over Pestilens allegiance! Are there any particular non Pestilens Skaven units you'd recommend as part of a mixed list? I normally only ever bring an Arch Warlock on Balewind.
Cheers
