First Skaven battle - 750pts

So I had my first true Skaven battle today. My 'mighty' forces took on a rather large, for the points, Empire force.

Some of my work

Just realised I havent actualy post any photo's of my work. So heres my last attempt at painting something to a decent standard. This was done back in December for the Librarium Online forums a Secret Santa style mini exchange. I know the person who recived it loved it, its just a pitty I never actualy recieved mine.

Making a list.

Well, I have had the book for a few days now, and I'll be thruthful. I haven't read it through. I have however done what everyone does with a new toy, and gone to the 'best bits'.

So using a little program called Armybuilder. I've come up with a fairly decent (I think) 750pt list for an escalation type campaign currently taking place down at my LGC.

750pts Skaven.

Plague Priest - lvl 2, Flail, Plague Furnace
Warlock Engineer -  lvl 2, Doomrocket, Warplock pistol
Plague Monks x20 - FC
Clanrats x20 - FC, Shields
Slaves x20 - Mus

So thoughts? Also when you get a new book, which bit do you flick to and read first? Do you read all the fluff or only ever read the back 15 or so pages?

The Under-Empire

So its decided. Ive gone with the Children of the Horned Rat, the populace of the Under-Empire. Skaven.

Works already begun on geting the swarm ready for battle. More updates soon.

Welcome one and all!

Well, I've finaly done it. I've gone and started a blog.  Now before I start rambling on, I will introduce myself.


Ive been playing tabletop games for a little over 3 years, and..... well,  thats the problem. Ive been playing for 3 years. I have multiple armys for multiple games, and I can count the number of fully painted units I have on 1 hand. Now I actualy enjoy painting, and I dont think Im too shabby either. So Im hoping this blog will encourage me to produce some nice looking units and eventualy armys. Of course I would love any coments on the minis or even any tips you may have to help me.

Anyhow back on track, tomorrows a big day for me. Im going out and buying what will be my new Warhammer army. This will of course be the main focus of this blog for a while, boy's and their toys n all that. Which army that will be is still up in the air, as you'll soon find out I'm a very fickle person, but its a toss up between Skaven and Tomb Kings. Who knows what tomorrow will bring....
