[AoS 2 - Skaventide Discussion]

So two lists. What do

List 1:

Warpseer -General -Suspspicious Stone -Master of Magic.
Bell
Bombardier
Warbringer

x40 rats - spears
x20 rats - Swords
x20  rats - Swords

x6 Jezzails
x6 Jezzails

Warp Lightning Vortex

List 2:

Warpseer -General -Suspspicious Stone -Master of Magic.
Bell
Bombardier

x40 rats - spears
x20 rats - Swords
x20  rats - Swords

x6 Jezzails
x6 Jezzails

x40 Plague Monks, woe staves + blades. Then full banner loadout.

Warp Lightning Vortex

I'm considering dropping the bell for ??? - While it's fun, its peal is completely random and I hate babysitting the thing. Any recommendations there? Considering switching it out for a regular Seer with skitterleap for first turn bomb WLV shenanigans. But then I'd have 80 points left.

So I've come to this. Only thing I kinda want to change are the Doomwheels, but they put massive pressure on the enemy to deal with them rather than shoot my clan rats.

I have a warpseer / warbringer verminlord in case of a roll of 12 on the bell.

I'm brand new to Skaven and AoS in general (40k player). I've already bought the Bell, a verminlord for 12s, a WLC and 20 clanrats. So question time before I buy anything else.

How are stormvermin on the table when backed by a claw lord? Is there anything else I can be doing to make people want them dead versus other things? Is Claw-horde worth it? With it this list has six drops.

I could ask a million questions, but I'd love some pointers here!
