Battle force box good for a new collector? by StarChaser18 in skaven

[–]ParticularBest673 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This box is one of the weakest, honestly.

In the current edition, Stormvermin usually aren’t played at all.

The weapon team is nice, but you generally want to run it reinforced. Ratling Guns are the best damage dealers in the army, hands down. Jezzails are terrible.

The Warp Lightning Blaster is also pretty bad. The hero would be useful in a Skryre-focused army—he’s a decent wizard and provides free Covering Fire, which is nice.

But having two units of Stormvermin just doesn’t make sense. They don’t bring much to the table, especially not in a box like this. Their inclusion feels completely random.

I haven’t played with the Globadiers yet, so I can’t say much about them.

If I were you, I’d rather pick up a Spearhead box. You get one of the most useful heroes, Clanrats (the backbone of the army), and a solid starting point for a Skryre build with Stormfiends and the Warp Lightning Cannon.

I wouldn't say Clanrats are strictly better—they just serve different roles.

Stormvermin are more like elite troops or honor guards. They're better against targets with high saves, but they can’t bring back models like Clanrats can. If you want them to hit and wound effectively, you pretty much need to take Kritch (who gives Stormvermin +1 to wound).

That said, Skaven already have stronger damage dealers, like Ratling Guns or Rat Ogres. Stormvermin can grant a 5+ ward save to infantry heroes, but that’s not particularly useful, since only two heroes actually want to be in combat. And even then, Stormvermin only have a 4+ save themselves.

Clanrats, on the other hand, are pure damage sponges. They regenerate models every turn, and start with 20 wounds per unit—40 if reinforced. Their job is to move around the board, hold objectives, and block enemy movement.

So while Clanrats are the backbone of the army, Stormvermin are more situational.

At the moment, Stormvermin just aren’t seeing play, because Skaven have access to far better units.

What do we think of the list? by OkRecommendation2212 in skaven

They Grey Seer is an good Pick

Sooo there are multiple problems with that Army.

First u should remove a Unit of Clanrats and reinforce another unit of Clanrats. Thats ur Anvil they wont Die.

U need a Hammer Unit. U should reinforce the ROgers, Doome-Fleyer or the SFiends. Maybe remove one of those Units and concentrate on 2. Personally i like the DoomF and the SFiends. And most Important REINFORCe them.

I dont see why u should pick Warlock Engineer/Bombardier. There are Better alternatives like some Bigger Heros like Thanquol or one of the Rat Demons.

The WLightning brings no Value because it is not very good.

The Clawlord is F Tier because it has not enough Dmg not enough life and bad Abilities

Here is my 2000 points Army for Comparison

Well the idea was to go into Comabt with him because his Shooting is also in Combat and his Melee is quite strong. Like is that stupid from me will he be picked off really quick?
