Hey ! i'm totaly new to wargames. I did discover all the warhammer fantasy lore since total war warhammer 1. I'm a big fan of skaven and decided to build an army.
I have few questions. I had the chance of purchasing a " Battle force Skaven Corupting war swarm" in a warhammer store. It includes 20 clanrats, a plague catapults that in built in canon, a verminlord warp seer, a screaming bell 20 plague monks and a plague priest. I also bought a warcry skaven wich includes 20 clanrats and a pack of 2 rats ogres, 3 pack masters and 6 giants rats .
My questions are :
1. i decided to build my 40 clanrats in spears mode. do i have to bring the both banner and musicians ( from the 2x20) or a single banner and musicians is enough?
2. Can i build the 2 claw leaders in my 40 clanrats ? and can i put on them the sword made for them orr i also have to give the a spear ? if i can't have 2 clawleaders in the 40 clanrats, how do i build the one who should not be a claw leaders ? do i just put off the thing on his helmet
3. A musician or a banner model does still have an attack as if they were spearrs ? or do they loose this ability due to the fact that they don't wear a weapon ?
I new to this gmae, i started reading rules and battletome but some things are not obvious to me. And all my appologies for this wobbly english.
Thanks for your help !
