Some thoughts:
– If what I’ve heard about having to use non-hand weapons if you have them is true, shields are worthless on Stormvermin, as they must always use their halberds. I think I’m at peace with that: their save w/o shield is the same as that of the clanrats with them.
– Part of me wants to take more Slaves, but I don’t see the points. I’d have to cash in a block of Clanrats for them, which I don’t think would do me much good.
– Doomrocket’s back in.
– The Warlord’s kind of juiced up now: he’ll have a 3+/4+ save and will spit out ten S 5 attacks. A bit pricey, though. I could see dropping the WAW for something cheaper + Slaves, maybe.
