Skaven Warphunters

"And thus I am glad to announce that an irrefutable scientific proof exists that Skaven are merely a figment of imagination."- Hieronymous Bach of the University of Nuln

It is the time of Chaos. It is the time of Civil war. It is the time of the Skaven. The Thirteen Lords of Decay have chosen Clan Eshin to recover the priceless magical stones which the manlings would use foolishly and perhaps do harm to the greater cause of the Horned Rat. No-no, the Wyedstone belongs to the Skaven. More potent by far than Warpstone and far safer to use, the meteoric stones value to the Skaven is incalcuable.

It is your clan, the silent and deadly Clan Eshin, which has been assigned the mission to recover all the Wyrdstone. You must lead a warband of the clans finest scouts and killers into the ruins, and quickly, silently and stealthily gather the priceless shards. If someone gets in your way... well, you don't want the Manlings to start believeing in Skaven again, do you? None must survive.

A Skaven warband must include a minimum of 3 models. You have 500 WarpTokens (WT) which you can use to recruit and equip your initial warband. The maximum number of warriors in the warband is 20.
