The large base size makes the bubble very large and allows you to spread your meatshields out a bit more.

In a mixed Chaos Skaven army he is a great candidate for the Crown of Conquest (6″ battleshock immunity bubble). Don’t forget the Unbridled Malice (Unpredictable Destruction) roll to give him a potential +1 to hit in combat. Since you can’t field a Masterclan army he will likely be Mixed Chaos (or allied to a Skaven Clan). Use them to zone out the board and trigger your opponent multiple times per game. Since there is a maximum of 18 rats per unit, they won’t get their bonuses and won’t be good in combat, but you’re not expecting them to kill anything. Use it to screen your units, to reach out and tag objectives, or to keep enemy units busy. This ability can be absolutely fantastic. The unit has to be deployed within (not wholly within) 13″ and more than 9″ away from enemies. Possibly his standout feature is his ability to summon 3D6 Giant Rats by spending a command point. The 3″ range is fantastic and, if positioned correctly (behind clanrats usually), allows you to attack an enemy without them being able to reach you.įorth-forth, Children of the Horned Rat!

Quite a choppy stick that can do serious damage when it goes through. Save it for the right moment as you will lose your save re-roll when this is thrown.ģ″ range, 3+/3+/-1, Damage 3. This is fantastic for deleting small heros (Stormcast wizards especially). Throwing the orb does D6 Mortal Wounds, unless the target has a move of 5″ or less, in which case it will do 6MW. Once per game you can throw this at a unit within 13″. Re-roll failed save rolls while the Warpseer holds this. Keep him behind a screen of clanrats and only move him into combat when he can strike without being hit back. The Warpseer can do damage when he is in combat (3+/2+/-1/3 Damage), but he doesn’t like being hit.

Verminlords, while they are big scary monsters, are not combat tanks by any means. With the scrying-orb he is possibly the most durable Verminlord. His command ability summons 3D6 Giant Rats within 13″ of him and his spell can shut down enemy charges. He works well as a support hero, though has a decent chance at doing some damage if he ends up in combat. At 260 points the Verminlord Warpseer is the second cheapest of the six Verminlords available.
