Check out the last list on this page:

The Island of Blood: Skaven Sample Armies | Games Workshop

This thread still going? Looks quiet, but either way.

After a competitive but good looking army, lots of quality painting and converting in mind, not so fussed about picking a faction or single colour scheme for skaven though since having it mish mash themed per unit would still look good

2000 points (or 2225 - 250, using IOB set, keen on a plague furnace or bell, ogres, lightning cannons, assasin and vermin lord would be good oh and some plague globadiers maybe and i like the idea of hordes of cheap units ruining people

New to fantasy, so keen on the perspectives of skaven armies, might just make a small skaven army and roll chaos in the end but planning out a bigger army with some perspectives would be good

Oh and im totally keen on picking up the big ass army box $350aus one (battalion? or is the army one the bigger one?) once I work out a list and see if its worth the money

Also a bigger points option inc doomwheel would be nice

Giant rambling post over...
