The History and First Unit

Ok ,so first entry for the blog that will be the story of the creation of my Skaven army.

So I will give you a brief history of my clan before they embark on their journey.....

From Clan Carrion born was Nitz...Nitz started with a clanrat unit and slowly progressed into leading the stormvermin unit of the clan and it was in a battle against the ogres of the Goldtooth tribe. In this epic battle Nitz was able to slaughter a slaughtermaster and decided that he had the power to command his own clan and from this idea, the deceit set hold. The battle was going in the favour of the clan and so the Ogres began to fall back, ready to regroup and fight another day. This was not acceptable to Nitz and saw this as an opportunity to break away from the clan....

Nitz gathered a large group of clanrats and a warlock enginneer to chase down the remaining ogres to truly break the ogre tribe and to be able to break away and start his own clan.

When Nitz and his clanrats caught up with the ogres, they massacred the remaining ogres and robbed them of all their armor and weapons, ready to take on their own foes.

---------------------------------------------

Based on this basic back story the first unit that i have created for my Skaven Army is a unit of 40 clanrats and an attached poison wind mortar based on the various ogre kingdoms parts. The unit of clanrats will have 3 mini scenes of skaven fighting the remianing ogres and littering ogre gut plates throughout the unit to count as shields.

For the poison wind mortar I will be looking at using a leadbelcher gun and mounting it on the back of skaven to look like the mortar.

.....Pictures incoming asap
