I hope you guys enjoy tell me wat you think. Made some edits to this after realizing I had done some stuff illegally lol. Will be updating the list itself shortly.

I don't really like this list. The Master Assassin only passes leadership onto gutter or night runner units, so those 5 man ratling gun teams are likely to turn tail at the salvo of enemy fire.

Also, the rank and banner bonus are a big deal to skaven which this list has very little of, with only some slaves with ranks.

It seems predicated on getting a combined charge with most of the units at once, but with the gutter runners likely to appear piecemeal that isn't that likely.

There is little in terms of ranged fire, with the longest range being the ratling guns, and there is very little magic defense, which in a 2000pt army is important

I dont have range in here cause its not a skryre list this is an eshin list. And like stated about the five mans before I only have them for the ratling guns, as soon as they get deployed in the first turn they will detach and hide behind the slaves and then unleash the fire. So the slaves are there as a squishy wall. I just wanted an Eshin but thanks for the input.

Why are the Clan rats under the minimum of 20 per unit? And again the double warp stone amulet thing(thought you could only have 1 of each magical iteam per army). Only 2 problems I see with the list

You might be right about the amulets in which case i can change that and as for the clan rats i forgot about about the 20 minimum and will changing those out for something else.

Yeah... Only problem with this list is that it's illegal.

Night Runners and Clanrat Slaves must be equal to or less than the number of Clanrats units in the army. (pg.45)
