2500pt skaven

[feydruatha]

This is the first list i have drawn up for 8th edition, and I’m 98 points short.

should i get a second Warlock engineer, or is there some other hole that i am not seeing?

The warlord and bsb are in the with stormvermin ranked up 6 wide, the skavenbrew chieftain is in with the clanrats and the seer is in with the slaves

Any help would be appreciated.

Honestly, most of this looks pretty good! There are a few things I'd recommend though:

Globadiers; another unit of 5 or none at all.

Drop the shields off of your clanrats; no parry with spears, and the minuscule addition to the save won't help much. This should free up enough points to squeeze in another chieftain/engineer that isn't completely naked.

Really, that's all I can come up with at the moment. Placement of your bonebreaker and doomwheel should be carefully considered in bigger battles.

thanks for the advice. I took some of it and tweaked the list a bit more and this is what i came up with.

the warlord and BSB in the Stormvermin. the seer in the clanrats and the plague priest in with the monks.
