Skaven are a characterful, black parody of mankind and ultimately embody everything that is wrong with humanity, only more so. In addition to being cowardly, Skaven cheat, steal, and endlessly stab each other in the back for their own promotion. They will, quite literally, eat each other alive. Skaven are never culpable, being wholly unable to take the blame for even the most obvious and egregious errors entirely of their own making. But, unlike humans (at least, the better sorts), Skaven embrace this total lack of scruples or honour. In fact, the better at scheming and double-crossing a Skaven is, and the more swaggeringly arrogant he acts about it, the more suitable he is for leadership of a Warlord clan! A Skaven army is a ragged mass of vicious cut-throats, eager to usurp civilisation and nest in its broken ruins. They are a multitudinous horde with a staggering amount of troops at their disposal, from rank after rank of warriors, such as Clanrats, Stormvermin, or Skavenslaves, to packs of war-beasts like Giant Rats or the hulking Rat Ogres. Specialist troops, such as the Poisoned Wind Globadiers or stealthy death squads of Gutter Runners, march alongside the larger blocks of infantry. Towering over it all are the devilish war machines of a wickedly clever race. Masters of an insane blend of magic and technology, the Skaven can field a number of infernal devices of destruction, such as the infamous Doomwheel or the highly feared war engine of ruination known as the Screaming Bell. The Skaven are the ultimate scavenger army and they are led to battle by a Warlord or a Grey Seer, the powerful mage-rats that claim to be the prophets of their foul vermin-god, the Great Horned Rat.

Storm Daemon Misfire Chart

Polearm. Attacks with this weapon have the Lightning Attacks special rule. In addition, the Storm Daemon can project bolts of dark lightning from its tip. Storm Daemon contains a Bound Spell (power level 6). This is a magic missile with a range of 24" that causes an artillery dice worth of Strength 5 hits with the Lightning Attacks special rule. In the case of a misfire, no shots are fired, but instead, roll a D6 and consult the Storm Daemon Misfire Chart: 

D6	Result
1-2	ZZZzark! Storm Daemon overloads. Ikit Claw and every model in base contact with him suffer a Strength 5 hit.
3-5	Disruption. Minor malfunctions and cursed tangles. Ikit may not cast spells for the rest of this Skaven Magic phase while he sorts his power cables out.
6	Full Power. The warp generator absorbs untold power for Ikit's use. Ikit may immediately add D3 power dice to the pool for the current Magic phase.
