Great video, struggled with my old Skaven army, but was convinced that there is something with the Gutterrunner. As usual thanks for the great content.
Thank you ! You can definitely build a very scary list with the gutter runners . So his list with the stormvermin and the gutter runners is right at the end I posted his list 1:09:27 :)
I'm 6 mins in and I'm loving this as somebody who is going solo to TSN next weekend for their first ever 2 day event. Putting my big boy pants on to do it and totally ready to get them pulled straight back down but can't wait!
All really good info. Love these kinds of vids. And yes people need this type of tactic analysis…. There’s allot of just negative give up advice online. So thank you both for shedding some light in the dark. Speaking of dark the theme song fakin ROCKS.🎸
Glad you enjoyed it thank you ? Love doing this type of tactical analysis rather than just this stat is good as prefer the human factor to warhammer :)
Death globes for the big bricks, an assassin with the weeping blade I always think must have legs. With skaven brew is it at the modified leadership from the unit? If so I think that's worth including.
Haven't watched the full video yet, but I hope it is something to do with Rat Swarms. As they are a swarm, they don't block line of sight, so any skaven behind can shoot/magic missile/vortex over them. Meanwhile, they can get in the way of pesky knights to blunt their 'first charge' ability.
@@stonehorsegaming so I’ve had these used against me multiple times and they are great ! I love rat darts aswell which is giant rats in matching collum zipping about blocking the board hahaha
I want to try a skaven list very focused on defence with the maximun output possibile of Pestilence cloud spell, with 2 warlock (2 power scroll) and the seer that choses spells for trying to have at least 2 clouds on the field for 2 turns. When it became a 4+ to wound, 10 globaridera became quite reliable-reiable
Ok bois check this: I think jezzails are slept on. Heres what im thinking 13 jezzails (which is actually only 250 points), grey seer nearby w/ battle magic and lore familiar: pillar of fire, fireball, warp lightning, CURSE OF ARROW ATTRACTION. These 13 jezzails (13 for cool lore reasons and its just a good amount) are now re-rolling those potentially fatal 1's and with their strength six their wounding most things on 2's with -3AP and your grey seer is contributing to an absolutely formidable gunline with fireball and pillar of fire and warp lightning. Pair this with 22 gutter runners and the stormvermin deathstar +7 combat res with another grey seer and demonology for the death star buffs and you've got threats coming from every part of the battlefield, cupla clan rats on either side of the jezzails for protecc. Thoughts?
@@supersingularcurve743I don't think plaguemonks will work for this list build tbh, i'd have to add a 60 pt plague priest tax and could no longer fulfil my core requirements which the stormvermin are pumping up
Being a fluff geek, few armies are as quintessential Warhammer to me as the Skaven. So iconic and unique. They should really have been a core army IMO. Great discussion!
So in no more room section for heros , if they aren’t in the front rank they go to the back of the unit and don’t give any bonuses or ld effects but as the verminous valor rule says it gives ld effects I think you don’t get the rest which I feel is an oversite . Page 209 on retiring from combat :)
Richy should get a sponsorship for the t-shirts. Huge fan of sponsoring the legacy forces and talking through the synergies and tactics others are missing. Brilliant.
Hahaha I don’t think my channel is big enough for cool clothing brands yet haha I say yet ! 😂😂 thank you I think all the armies have play , everyone was saying dwarfs were one of the worst armies in the game before I started winning events with them . I think we can be positive about every faction :)
@@Dawiafterdark100%. Would love to get your take on dark elves. I know they have the dragon but I’m inclined to go oldhammer blocks, those classic executioner sculpts are some of my favorites, and it’s been a challenge to build a viable list in the US
I mean you can make them zoom about very fast with magic , I think taking a hero with monster slaying sword in the unit and making him as tanky as possible could work people will have to deal with the death star to get points off you so could definitely work
Love the deep dive with experienced players :)
@@goth84 thank you!! More to come next week !
I started skaven knowing I want alot of Eshin stuff. Glad I watched this
Glad it helped :)

A week ago I was wishing this video would exist, and here it is. Thank you!
Good! Hope you enjoy it !!
yes yes yes sneaky skeven:) Another great Video!
Cheers mate !!

@ yep, that’s the one!
@ nice I’m there too ! Come say hi :)
@@Dawiafterdark ah cool! I will for sure!
Outstanding work again mate
Thank you so much !
Great video from two giants in the game, which is weird cos you both play little short people!
Hahahaa love it mate ! Thanks mate really appreciate it ! And yes we love a shorty !

Definitely the human factor. And you guys are talking about the “ what ifs “ and things that define certain strategy. Love it more please 🗡️
Much greater minds than mine… love that you always play up hill - much more rewarding!
Time to print me some stormvermin… lol😂
Do it mate !!!!
Wow that outro music is a banger! \m/
@@Hoodoo102 thank you ! I’m gunna keep slipping it in haha
Normally calling someone a filthy rat is an insult, but to a skaven player it's a compliment :D These deep dives are great
@@JohnnyTightIips glad your enjoying them mate ! Hahaha gotta love some dirty ratmen haha

@Dawiafterdark haha, great stuff. Nothing like blocking expensive models with expendable chaff. Infuriating for the enemy, and a joy for us.

@@ComandaKronikk can just imagine you shouting “ more more more “ maniacally 😂😂 love it ! Love some good combos !!
Nice, I'd run it with plague monk death star.
@ can you explain to me the plague monk deathstar my friend?
@@ComandaKronikkHas more attacks
@@supersingularcurve743I don't think plaguemonks will work for this list build tbh, i'd have to add a 60 pt plague priest tax and could no longer fulfil my core requirements which the stormvermin are pumping up

I know it’s a massive shame they aren’t ! Maybe in the future hopefully !
I think plague furnace is the best model in skaven, and I haven't seen it used.
I really like the massive plague monk blobs aswell

He has an own RUclips channel and a video where he speaks about it in detail. Just search "Anubis Chaos dwarfs"
Is his list somewhere?
@@dannystewart7323 at the end of the video mate :)
The Cautious Shield is the most Skaven like Magic Item i can imagine
@@Folgeantrag it’s amazing isn’t it ! I think a lot of what the skaven can do holerious
Bois im not seeing any rules that says the BSB has to be in the front rank to give the buffs? Where am I missing it?

@ Ah yes you're absolutely right! Thanks Richy! Yeah that sucks but oh well, as Jack said, Skaven is HARD MODE haha
Surely fly 9 is 6+ 3 so 18? Or am i missing something
@@monsterhelmet48 haha sorry my maths was wrong on that good catch !

Gutter runners? Great. The models that aren't available. Lol
Etsy have lots of 3d print versions you could use :) that would fit in nice :)
You can build them from the plastic box, that's was everybody on a budge did and still does
@everydayisfriday4885 meh....
Clawpack from AoS works pretty good.
Vinci miniatures have some sick ones!
