After today's game against the Empire, I came to a conclusion, that my Skaven are Lemmings in disguise. Out of the whole 1K pts army, only 7 Gutter Runners survived (and another one fled). At first it looked promisingly good, but then.... Waiting for the report and pics.

Just a little note: There were 20 Gutter runners on the battlefiled. The second clanrat unit did not contain the general, but my Engineer. (stupid, stupid) (Note to myself: Paint him finaly, so I don't mistake him for a clanrat again)

So what did I learn today: Make sure the units ARE within the range (and not half an inch off) Do NOT run from cavalry, especially when they are so close One skirmisher can't rally and it is better to sacrifice two skirmishers, than run away (as it could have saved the clanrats hiding behind them) Do NOT run from cavalry, especially when they are so close Look carefully if there is not a character in a unit you want to flee with (what a stupid way to loose the Engineer along with a whole unit) Get five towers and plant jezzails on them. 3:D

You know, some other time in the near (not likely) or far (possible if the odds are better) future, I will get my revange and win again. Skaven will prevail.

I now know what happened: our lair was attacked by a rival clan and our brave warriors rushed to help their brethern when they were mercilessly slaughtered by the cowardly Empire soldiers with whom they had no quarrel.

The Great Horned One smiled upon my small clan and the magic cards arrived today. Hope it will change the odds and my suicidal lemming skavens will slaughter foes instead of being slaughtered.
