Sorry, what I meant was is have things that aren't really Clan specific oriented. Have a base of Clanrats, Slaves, Stromvermin, and rat swarms to be more of the stuff you would have than units being of Clan Pestilen, Skyre, Moulder, and Eshin. So your vanillia, that's what I call it, seems more balanced between Clans. So, your coloring could be a leather cloth, so snakebite leather should work, and black could be armor, or metal, just dry brush boltgun metal over it. The fur could be brown, or black for Stormvermin, Rat Ogres, and Warlords. White fur if you plan on having a Grey Seer, which could have an odd shade of blue for cloth along with a leather color cloth. If painted right it may look pretty good.

Yeah, once I get another unit of Clanrats my base will be half way done, I want a rat swarm(something else that dissipeared) and I'd go with Storm Virmen only thing is, I don't know what halburds do. My last incarnation of the army had a very rag tag apearince, the cloth was all different colors and the only thing that unified them was their shields. I'm varing the color of their fur, so that they don't look exactly the same, using different techniqes with a light and dark brown. White fur also looks good on slaves, in an odd way. Metal such as the armour and weapons usualy are a dry brush of bolt gun over black, followed by a wash of either green or brown. Usualy looks good. Yeah, I think I'm going to try brown leather, a blue gray color, and bleached bone for cloth. It should look good in the end.

Haliberds aren't too hard to figure out, just look in the Warhammer Rulebook, or ask someone at the store. I'd like to tell ya, but I think that would be a breech in the guild rules, you know giving out rules for something. Anywho, what you have planned sounds pretty good.

Yeah it would be a breach... sweatdrop I still have yet to pick up the rule book. I have a semiphotographic memory, so I don't realy need it that much.

Having the Rulebook helps, sometimes you'll need it more than you think.

Yep, I'm definately learning that. I use to know what all the different weapons do, but I havn't played fantasy in almost a year.

Fantasy has always been more of my game, and these been some changes, some big and some not so much.

I prefer fantasy, but since I stoped going to my local store, I've only been able to play 40k. My friend only had a 40k army. But now that I have two armys, should be able to play fantasy again.

This is the color scheme I settled on.

Looks perfect, and now you're just about good to go in playing a game of Fantasy.  

[Ruric Torrune]

Well, once I get ahold of a buddy that plays fantasy, and after I finnish painting the fourty other models... I hate going to battle with unfinnished models.  

[Daemon_King]

You'll eventually get used to it...  

[Ruric Torrune]

Yeah, it just bugs me anyway.

Haven't been here in awhile.. 4laugh

And I got a question: Is it required to field Nurglitch in a Bubonic Court army?

The only reason I'm asking is because of my last attempt at finding the answer. I went to GW and asked the guys there, and they said you don't have to have Nurglitch in the army. But later I went online to get the army rules, and it said it was "compulsory." Now I'm confused.

In less than 2,000, I believe it is not neccessary. However, once you are capable of taking Nurglitch, I believe you MUST take him.

It is his army, though there's no reason to assume that he leads ALL his forces.

I'm back with skaven questions.... sweatdrop

The people I play a lot with use elves. One does woods and one does high. As such, they have a ton of shooting. So I lose almost all of my force by the time I get to them.

Anyone have any advice for dealing with shooty-elves?

Spells, gutter runners, and lot's of skirmish. I get through my wood elf friend that way.
