Seems like in any forum where Pestilens lists are discussed, the discussion becomes completely focused on whether to use two blades or blade+stave on the Monks haha

Fellow rat men of unusual size, it really doesn't matter. The mathematical difference is slight and its so unpredictable whether or not you'll get the buff on that specific unit, whether the Verminlord gets sniped early, how many Monks are still alive in that unit, etc that just really go with what you want. Those Monks are nasty either way

If you're looking for someone to tell you "Consensus is definitely bring paired blades" or vise versa, then it's not going to happen like that 

Wow! Thanks for the easy to understand clear answer. Read a lot about this discussion and it seemed to favor dual blades but it always seemed like 60/40% split on opinion but in the end does not seem to matter haha. Wont ask again and thanks for the clear response

So the consensus is that rerolling failed attacks with 3 attacks per is betting than just doing 4 attacks without rerolling?

All your posts could not have come at a better time since I am getting started with my skaven, so thsnk you!

But I have some questions, what are your thoughts on Plaguemonks with dual blades vs blade and staff? I have read the pros and cons but just cant judge or decide what is better since I have played 2 intro games of AoS and thats it.

Secondly is the plagueclaw just hot garbage or should I still assemble them so I can flip them between a plagueclaw and a warp lightning cannon?
