8th Ed. 500 Points of Skaven allied detachment

[Eladimir]

Playing in a 2250 + 500 tourney
Fluff - A group of skaven were tunnelling in to a mountianside nearby a Lizardman City to lay siege and were captured and pressed into service (its weak but its what I got)

Lizzies is
Slann
Priest, SV
Saurus
Skrox
Chamo
Terradon
Steg

Any recommendation from players who know skaven what to spend the 500 points of skaven on? Only requirement is 125 points of core (BSB's aren't shared)

Was thinking:
28 Clanrats
Chief BSB
Plaguewind Mortar
DoomWheel
Warp Lightling Cannon

Skaven are my main opponent! Plaguewind Mortars are solid choices. They work great for thinning out tough troops (like Saurus)

If the only requirement is 125 in core, you better take a Hell Pit. That thing is unstoppable unless you tailor a list to kill it. The Doonwheel is good also and Warp Lightning Cannons are fun, but the Hell Pit is gravy. And it's relatively cheap!

all slaves!

 

[Eladimir]

I'll ask around I should be able to borrow a hellpit. (I don't own one yet looking for a weird no GW model)
Yeah its a great choice.

I thought hard about bringing 125 points of slaves but I really want the PWM, I never get to use warmachines so thats the plan here.

Lastly all slaves eh? 5x50 slaves deploy. Then lizardmen behind it

Dont you play with maximum 25 % rare for the skaven?

 

[Eladimir]

Theres no restiction on the 500 pt allied force portion other than the 25% core.

The 2250 portion of my army will be lizardmen and will have normal restrictions.
