    So what are folks opinion on 30 Acolytes vs 6 Stormfiends as I have a bit of trouble choosing which unit to use.

    So 6 stormfiends have the range and can do a lot of damage when buffed (Spark, More More and Vigor) but they lack abit when they are not buffed. Also they are a pretty beefy unit and can do some melee damage

     

    30 Acolytes on the other hand can do crazy amount of damage (buffed and unbuffed) however they are on 32mm so it can be a problem getting everyone in range and the 8” is pretty low (20” threat range however).

    So yeah I can’t really decide whats best…

    What do ya’ll think?

    Looks good, although this might not be the thread for your tournament list.

    You’re probably off better asking in the Skaventide thread.

    As for the list it really does look good.

    I’m not sure if the Screaming bell will be worth the points in a 1200points game, especially when you only got 4meatshields to protect and move it, but considering the rest I think you’re solid.

    Oops very sorry! haha thought this was the thread xD

    EDIT: Thanks for the input tho!

    180 clanrats and a plague priest as the general.😉

    while using the infamous onion formation, this list will literally become unstoppable 

    Onion formation? Can you explain why this list is good?

    @Gwendar Ahh okay i see. I never got to use 9 fiends, i bought the last 3 this weekend and then the FAQ hit -_-
    I was thinking about going with this list:

    I just don't know if the 40 Monks are worth it anymore! Sure if they are buffed with +1 Attack/reroll hit and Wound but without im not so sure. I really don't know what to do about it! 

    see your point with not using Acolytes with stormfiends.

    Also: Is Warpseer and Bell  still worth the +20 points?

    I’ve been taking a pause from skaven and just got back! I’m very curious with whats “best” 

    Plague Monks or Stormfiends?

    i got 9 stormfiends waiting to be build and i got 80 monks and i just don’t know what to use!

    Monks are cheaper and you can easily fit 9 Jezzails in as well!

    Have anyone tried combining them in a list?

    what are your thought?

    How do you guys deal with enemy Plague Monks?

    Played a game against  Maggotkin of Nurgle and he used a max sized unit of plauge monks and they destroyed my army (He sadly unbinded my death frenzy on my Plague Monks). He alsp used Glottkin however i managed to shoot him down with 9 Jezzails.

    Any tips on how to deal with them?

    Make the AW into a bombardier:) Imo, since you don't have any stormfiends, or a 3+ team of ratling gunners, I think you should be safe to downgrade him.

    He will probably just hug the jezzails just sparking them/MMWP when needed.

    I would not swap out a grey seer if you are planing on the skitterleap WLV combo, and the other one to follow the monks around casting deathfrenzy.

     

    Will do that then! Yeah it seems like a waste to downgrade the Greyseers

    Anyone got any ideas on how to increase the Jezzails from 6 to 9? 

    Maybe either drop the Arch-Warlock and make him a Bombadier or drop a Greyseer? or maybe 20 clanrats?

    Thoughts?

    Hey Everyone.

    I know i have posted something like this recently, but once again i'm in doubt...
    I am going to a tournament pretty soon and i have decided to bring skaven. I have never really tried them out, so maybe it's not that smart but who cares. I came up with the following list:

    Spoiler

    Allegiance: Skaventide

    Leaders
    Arch-Warlock (160)
    - General
    - Trait: Overseer of Destruction 
    - Lore of Warpvolt Galvanism: More-more-more Warp Power!

    Total: 1960 / 2000
    Extra Command Points: 0
    Allies: 0 / 400
    Wounds: 184

    However i have been reading through the forum and i noticed people really like Jezzails! So i came up with another list and i really need help with what list to choose...
    Second List:

    Spoiler

    Allegiance: Skaventide

    Leaders
    Arch-Warlock (160)
    - General
    - Trait: Overseer of Destruction 
    - Lore of Warpvolt Galvanism: More-more-more Warp Power!
    Verminlord Warpseer (300)
    - Artefact: Suspicious Stone 
    Grey Seer (140)

    Battleline
    40 x Clanrats (200)
    - Rusty Blade
    40 x Clanrats (200)
    - Rusty Blade
    20 x Clanrats (120)
    - Rusty Blade

    Units
    40 x Plague Monks (280)
    - Foetid Blades
    - 1x Icon of Pestilence
    - 1x Contagion Banner
    - 1x Doom Gongs
    - 1x Bale Chimes
    9 x Warplock Jezzails (420)

    Endless Spells / Terrain
    Warp Lightning Vortex (100)

    Total: 1920 / 2000
    Extra Command Points: 0
    Allies: 0 / 400
    Wounds: 181

    I also have some questions :)
    1) - Is it worth brining the Warbringer in the first list? I mainly use it for Death Frenzy on monks. 
    2.  - Should i bring more endless spells? I have heard that spell heavy lists are quite good?

    I am leaning towards the first list, i quite like it, but i want to be as competitive as possible. 
    So what lists looks more competitve? Or is there something i should change to make a list more cpmpetitve?

    Thanks before hand :)

    @Darkhan, @Skavelynn Thanks for the input! I tried to update the list like you said and i came up with two ideas!:
     I think i like the first lit most, and are the Ratling Guns really worth it? Thoughts?
    I have also heard that before the point increases, Verminlord Heavy Lists worked quite well, is this still the case?
