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!
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
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.
