Sub Standard Skaven Lists

[jbusta]

Hey All,

I’m toying around with a few different army lists for my Skaven army right now and was hoping to get some feedback.

I’m not looking for an “optimum build” list; I’m trying to take less seen options and units/models that I like. While I don't mind losing every game, I also don't like getting tabled every game.

The following are the three lists I’m debating on for a local tournament in June:

Option 1

1 Grey Seer w/ Screaming Bell and dispel scroll
1 Chieftan BSB with shield, talisman of preservation and Iron Curse Icon
31 Clan Rats w/ full command and Poison Wind Mortar (house for bell)
20 Storm Vermin w/ full command, flaming banner and Poison Wind Mortar (for aboms and hydras)
40 Slaves w/ Musician
40 Slaves w/ Musician and shields
30 giant rats w/ 6 pack masters
6 Rat Ogres w/ 3 pack masters and upgrade to a Master Bred rat Ogre
6 Gutter Runners w/ Poison Attacks and slings
30 Plague Monks w/ Full command and Plague Banner
1 Doom Wheel
1 Hell Pit Abomination w/ Warpstone Spikes
1 Warplightning Cannon

Option 2

1 Grey Seer w/ Screaming Bell, skalm and dispel scroll
1 Chieftan BSB with shield, talisman of preservation and Iron Curse Icon
1 Assassin w/ weeping blades and potion of strength
31 Clan Rats w/ full command and Poison Wind Mortar (house for bell)
20 Storm Vermin w/ full command, flaming banner and Poison Wind Mortar (for aboms and hydras)
40 Slaves w/ Musician
40 Slaves w/ Musician and shields
5 giant rats w/ 1 pack master
5 giant rats w/ 1 pack master
6 Rat Ogres w/ 3 pack masters and upgrade to a Master Bred rat Ogre
6 Gutter Runners w/ Poison Attacks and slings
30 Plague Monks w/ Full command and Plague Banner
1 Doom Wheel
1 Hell Pit Abomination w/ Warpstone Spikes
1 Warplightning Cannon

Option 3

1 Grey Seer w/ Screaming Bell, skalm and dispel scroll
1 Chieftan BSB with shield, talisman of preservation and Iron Curse Icon
1 Assassin w/ weeping blades and potion of strength
35 Clan Rats w/ full command, shields and spears
30 Storm Vermin w/ full command and Leadership Banner (house for bell)
40 Slaves w/ Musician

Also, in a few days I’ll try to get some pictures up on the hobby section as I get the army painted.
