It would be nice to rely on your high AG to dodge out of TZs once all other important moves have been completed – but you can’t. Use a thrower deep and throw in as many runners as you have near the widezones, ready to run deep. The storm vermin setup with the runners giving deep field protection.ĭon’t forget that Gutter Runners can throw the ball only marginally worse than your Thrower can – a completion and a lucky MVP means a skill! If I have rat ogres I put them on the line, otherwise just stick expendable linerats up front. Start with just 1 or 2 gutter runners, with the plan to try to run deep and interfere with the guy receiving the kick off. Three cards guarantees a Magic Item and two Random Events. If two cards are drawn then I would tend toward two Random Events, but be tempted by a Magic Item. And they’re cheap too! Palying a skaven TeamĪlthogh less reliant on money than an Elven team, Random Events are probably still your best bet. Try at least 1 go-for-it and you’ll soon see how far these little guys go. That extra square or two makes such a difference. Never underestimate the Linemen if you can capitalise on their speed. (Freebooting 2 Linemen instead of buying 1 is a gamble you may want to try – just hope to pull money cards.) The latter is a mistake – especially if you can’t buy an Apothecary after game 1. What about the rest of the team? A Rat Ogre would be nice, but this is balaned by starting with fewer Rerolls, a lower Fan Factor or even only 11 players. Starting with only one means that there is only one target for your opponent to worry about, two targets can keep them off balance longer. If you’d like more Gutter Runners I would recommend that you hold off for a while as you risk reducing the overall strength of your starting team by introducing them too quickly (giving up critical Fan Factor or Rerolls for a ST2 player – of which you already have two).
That’s not quite true, but fact is you may not have any players left standing by the time the final whistle blows! I started with an ‘all out’ option as I like to live with the doubt that any of my players will be on the pitch by the end of the game. You can go two ways here: ‘all out’ for skills and edge-of-your seat dice rolls or ‘strength’ giving a means of retaliation against power teams like Orcs or Chaos. A good thing too, as it can throw them off their gameplay! Starting Teams Actually it’s remarkable as to just how fast these rats can run – this can infuriate your opponent if they’re not used to it. The Skaven are fast, but they break easily. The Wood Elves have an advantage in that all of their players are more agile – which balances the low armour the Skaven have to rely on their low cost to keep them supplied with plentiful replacements.(Which seems appropriate for rodents really.)
Skaven are an uneasy blend of low armour and very fast players. A good thing too, as it can throw them off their gameplay!
