Regarding the stupidity issue, I've been including general in my my CoK's as well as a BSB. Interestingly, I haven't failed a stupidity roll yet, and I've not lost more than 50% of my CoK's so far.

Well, except to that Great Unclean One the other day, but that was because we didn't read the rules for Demonic and took the Chaos player's word for it that demons are immune to all mundane weapons. :roll:

"Anyway my advice is always charge them in the flank."


That assumes you CAN charge them in the flank! Ratling guns and wall-to-wall troops protect flanks like nobody's business.

There are other ways to deal with Skaven, but as soon as someone finds a way to guarantee a flank every game the Skaven will weep tears of blood.~Azzie

:shock: Now THAT is a frickin miracle... okay, not really. Who the hell front charges any decent regiment with 8 Silver Helms anyway?!

And when the light seemed darkest... we get the visual equivalent of the opening lick from Thunderstruck."
