A Verminlord has the Unstable and Ward Save (5+) special rules. In addition, it can never be the Army General.

A Verminlord Corruptor must choose all its spells from the Lore of Plague, and can re-roll failed casting attempts when attempting to cast Plague.

A Verminlord Deceiver must choose all its spells from the Lore of Stealth, and can re-roll failed casting attempts when attempting to cast the Skitterleap spell from the Lore of Stealth, and can choose itself as the target of this spell.

Enemy units that target a Verminlord Deceiver with a shooting attack suffer a -1 To Hit modifier in addition to any other modifiers.

A Verminlord Warbringer must choose all its spells from the Lore of Ruin, and can re-roll failed casting attempts when attempting to cast Death Frenzy.

A Verminlord Warpseer must choose all its spells from the Lore of Ruin, and can re-roll failed casting attempts when attempting to cast the Warp Lightning spell from the Lore of Ruin.

A Master Assassin may be the Army General. However, he can only pass on his Leadership value to other units if he is not Hidden.

Master Moulders and Master Mutators may join units of Giant Rats or Rat Ogres and act as their handlers following the Mixed Units special rule, or be deployed in the front rank if they wish. All friendly Clan Moulder units within 6" of a Master Moulder or 12" of a Master Mutator roll 3D6 for all Leadership tests and discard the highest dice.

A model mounted on a Great Pox Rat is treated as an Infantry model for the purpose of "Look Out Sir!".

If a Brood Horror is slain, all units in base contact with the Brood Horror suffer 2D6 Strength 2 hits, distributed as shooting attacks.

The Grey Seer may use Verminous Valour to refuse a challenge, but is not moved to the back of the unit – instead it clambers higher atop the Screaming Bell. The Grey Seer is not moved but cannot fight or be attacked for the duration of that round of close combat.

This model and any unit it joins has the Stubborn special rule.

In your Magic phase, immediately after generating power dice, you can choose to ring the Screaming Bell. The owning player can choose to roll between 1-3 D6's, representing the vigour the Rat Ogre bell-ringer is commanded to supply.

If the Screaming Bell suffers one or more wounds inflicted by a shooting attack with a Strength of 5 or more, it will immediately ring once using one D6, even if it is destroyed as a result of the attack.

Doubles - If any doubles are rolled, a backlash of magic reverberates through the Screaming Bell. Apply the following effect in addition to the result on the chart. The unit pushing the Screaming Bell immediately takes D6 Strength 4 Hits.

Triples - If a triple is rolled, apply the following effect in addition to the result on the chart. The unit pushing the Bell immediately suffers 2D6 Strength 5 hits, and the Screaming Bell itself suffer a single Strength 5 hit.

Billowing Death follows the rules for Breath Weapons, but can be used in every turn. All models Hit must pass a Toughness test or suffer a Wound with the Ignores Armour Saves and Magical Attacks special rules. All Clan Pestilens models gain a +1 bonus for this tests.

The Plague Furnace may inflict special attack after all other attacks have been resolved, inflicting an Artillery dice's worth of Hits against a single enemy unit to their front. A roll of Misfire means something has gone wrong; roll a D6 on the Plague Furnace Mishap chart below.

The Warpfire Thrower fires like a Fire Thrower with the following profile:

In case a Misfire is rolled, roll a D6 and consult the Warpfire Thrower Misfire Chart.

Warpfire Thrower Misfire Chart

A Weapon Team must be deployed at the same time and within 3" of the unit it was bought with. After this the Weapon Team is free to move and counts as a normal unit for all purposes. In addition, they follow the "Look Out Sir!" rules for Shooting at Lone Characters, representing them lurking in obscurity and ducking for the protective cover of the larger unit.

The Ratling Gun uses the following profile:

Roll an Artillery Dice to determine number of shots fired. After the first Artillery Dice is rolled, you can now decide whether to stop or to roll an additional Artillery Dice, and repeat the process up to a maximum of 3 Artillery Dice. In case a Misfire is rolled, roll a D6 and consult the Ratling Gun Misfire Chart, no further Artillery Dice may be rolled.

Ratling Gun Misfire Chart

The Doom-flayer uses the following profile:

The mass of whirling blades provides an excellent protective shield, giving the Doom-flayer an armour save of 3+ against all models attacking from the front. The Doom-flayer has only a 5+ armour save against attacks from the flank or rear.

Instead of attacking normally, the Doom-flayer causes one artillery dice worth of Impact Hits at the start of each close combat phase. In case a Misfire is rolled, roll a D6 and consult the Doom-flayer Mishap Chart.

Doom-flayer Mishap Chart

The Poisoned Wind Mortar fires like a Stone Thrower with the following profile:

Models hit by a Poisoned Wind Mortar must pass a Toughness test or suffer a Wound. Note that Poisoned Wind Mortar crew wear Gas Masks. In case a Misfire is rolled, roll a D6 and consult the Poisoned Wind Mortar Misfire Chart.

Poisoned Wind Mortar Misfire Chart

The Warp-grinder uses the following profile:

A unit with an attached Warp. grinder is not deployed at the beginning of the game.

During deployment, before Scouts are placed, place a tunnel marker anywhere on the battlefield. The unit will then deploy using the Ambushers special rule. When the team emerges, roll a scatter dice and an artillery dice. If you roll a hit on the scatter dice, the marker stays in place; if you roll an arrow, move the marker the number of inches indicated by the artillery dice in the direction shown by the arrow. If the marker is moved off the tabletop, the team and its parent unit are considered lost; treat them as casualties. In case a Misfire is rolled, roll a D6 and consult the Warp-grinder Mishap Chart.

Once the final position is established, place the Warpgrinder and its parent unit so both can touch the marker. If the marker is under a friendly unit or impassable terrain, place it next to the closest edge of the unit/terrain. They may face in any direction.

If the marker is under an enemy unit when the Warpgrinder and its parent unit emerges, the Warp-grinder and its parent unit are both considered to have charged. Place the attacking Skaven to the front of the enemy unit that is atop the marker.

Although not designed for combat, the Warp-grinder can still mete out damage with its close-ranged warp-powered blasts. The Warp-grinder fights in close combat using its crew's Initiative, but not their Attack profile. The Warp-grinder is a Warpstone Weapon and inflicts D3 Strength 4 Hits in each Close Combat phase.

Warp-grinder Mishap Chart

If a unit of Skavenslaves breaks from combat, any units that they flee through (friend or foe) immediately take D6 Strength 3 hits for each complete rank of 5 or more Skavenslaves left in the unit. The broken unit is then removed as casualties.

Skaven can voluntarily target ranged attacks (including templates) at enemy units engaged in close combat with Skavenslaves (but no other friendly troops) even if they are further than 4" away. However, if they do so, they will hit their Skavenslaves on To Hit rolls of both 1's and 2's rather than just 1's.

When it is their turn to attack, roll a D6 for each model armed with Snare-nets. On a 2+, one enemy model in base contact is ensnared and suffers -1 Attack (both rider and mount) for the remainder of the close combat phase.

Flail. At the start of each round of close combat, all enemy models in base contact with one or more models bearing a plague censer, as well the Censer Bearers themselves that are allowed to fight this round, must pass a Toughness test or suffer a single wound with the Ignores Armour Saves and Magical Attacks special rules. All Clan Pestilens models gain a +1 bonus for these tests.

The Wolf Rats gain +1 Toughness but suffer -1 to their Initiative.

The unit gains the Poisoned Attacks special rule.

The unit gains the Armour Piercing (1) and Magical Attacks special rules.

All Rat Ogres in the unit gain medium armour.

All Rat Ogres in the unit are no longer subject to Stupidity or Frenzy.

All Rat Ogres in the unit gain +1 Attack.

All Rat Ogres in the unit gain +1 Movement.

All Rat Ogres in the unit gain +1 Toughness.

All Rat Ogres in the unit gain the Regeneration (5+) special rule.

A Pavise has the following armour profile:

*Only applies to missile attacks in the front arc.

When a model with a Gas Mask is forced to take a Toughness test from any weapon source in Warhammer: Skaven, they get a +2 bonus for these tests.

Models hit by a Poisoned Wind Globe must pass a Toughness test or suffer a Wound. On the To Hit roll of a 1, the Globadier hits himself (including when firing into close combat).

The model gains +1 Attack.

The Brood Horror gains a Strength 2 Breath Weapon which Ignores Armour Saves.

The Brood Horror gains medium armour.

The Brood Horror gains the Armour Piercing (1) and Magical Attacks special rule.

The Hell Pit Abomination gains the Magic Resistance (1) and Magical Attacks special rule.

If two or more 1's or any triples are rolled when the Abomination is making its Random Movement, do not move the Hell Pit Abomination; instead roll a D6 on the Berserk Abomination Chart.

Berserk Abomination Chart

Abominations do not attack in the same way as other creatures. Roll a D6 when it is the Hell Pit Abomination's turn to attack to see what the mutated beast does:

Close Combat Attacks Chart

As soon as the Hell Pit Abomination loses its last Wound, roll a D6 and check the Too Horrible to Die chart. If any of the Hell Pit Abomination's Wounds were lost to Flaming Attacks, the beast is dead and no roll on the chart is allowed.

Too Horrible to Die Chart

Doom-Flayer Gauntlets use the following profile:

Ratling Cannons use the following profile:

Shock Gauntlets use the following profile:

Each model with Warpfire Projectors fire as a Fire Thrower using the following profile:

Each model with Windlaunchers fire as a Stone Thrower with the following profile:

The Plagueclaw Catapult uses the following profile:

The Plagueclaw Catapult uses the large template. Any unit that takes one or more wounds must immediately take a Panic test.

In case a Misfire is rolled, roll a D6 and consult the Plagueclaw Misfire Chart.

Plagueclaw Misfire Chart

The Warp Lightning Cannon uses the following profile:

This is a non-physical attack. In case a Misfire is rolled on the first artillery dice, roll a D6 and consult the Warp Lightning Misfire chart.

The Warp Lightning Cannon fires like the normal Cannon, with the following exceptions. A roll of a Misfire on the bounce means that the energy dissipates and no hits at all are suffered. If a number is rolled, centre the small round template where the shot first lands before the bounce, to represent the crackling and exploding ball of energy. The shot then bounces like a normal cannon ball.

All models touched by the template or the bounce suffer a hit at a Strength equal to the result on the Artillery Dice for the bounce roll. Note that only the model under the centre of the template and the bounce itself suffers Multiple Wounds.

The Warp Lightning Cannon cannot fire grapeshot.

Warp Lighting Misfire Chart

At the beginning of each round of combat in which it did not charge, the Doomwheel inflicts D3+1 Impact Hits.

At the end of any phase in which a Doomwheel that is not in close combat or fleeing suffers a Wound, the Skaven player must take a Loss of Control test. Roll a D6 for each wound suffered in that phase. On the roll of one or more 1's, the Doomwheel goes immediately Out of Control (as detailed in the Doomwheel Mishap Chart).

In each friendly Shooting phase, even when engaged in close combat or when fleeing, the Doomwheel automatically unleashes bolts of warp lightning using the following profile:

Each warp lightning bolt will automatically hit the nearest unit (friend or foe), regardless of line of sight and direction. This is a non-physical attack.

The Warlock Engineer may choose to take a Leadership test in an attempt to stop the Doomwheel from firing. If the test is failed, the machine fires as normal.

Roll an Artillery dice to determine the Strength for the bolts, measuring from the Doomwheel's base. If the closest unit dies from the first bolt, the second bolt hits the next closest unit in range, and so on. If two targets are equidistant, the owning player may choose which unit is struck.

If you roll a misfire result something has gone awry. No more shots are fired this turn and you must immediately roll a D6 and consult the Doomwheel Mishap Chart.

Doomwheel Mishap Chart

Boneripper may fire one Warpfire Thrower each turn, while Boneripper Mk II can fire two Warpfire Throwers each turn. These attacks are completely resolved one at a time, and may be directed at different targets if desired. Because Boneripper Mk II has four Warpfire Throwers, he may re-roll all failed rolls To Wound with them.

Each Warpfire Thrower fires like a Fire Thrower with the following profile:

In case a Misfire is rolled, Boneripper suffers a Wound with no saves allowed.

Thanquol has the Ward Save (4+) special rule. For every wound Thanquol saves, one friendly model within 6" (owning player's choice) takes a wound instead. Normal saves apply. If no friendly model is within 6" the Wound fails to deflect anywhere and is ignored.

When casting a spell, if Thanquol rolls a 1 with any power dice generated by a Warpstone Token, he can re-roll the dice. The second result will cause a wound on a roll of 1 or a 2.

If, at the start of any friendly turn, Boneripper is not within 12" of Thanquol, then he is programmed to shut down. While shut down, Boneripper cannot do anything at all, and in combat he will be hit automatically and will not strike back. If the game ends while Boneripper is shut down, he counts as a casualty. If Thanquol is slain or flees off the table, Boneripper is removed as a casualty as well.

Skreech Verminking re-rolls failed casting attempts when attempting to cast Curse of the Horned Rat.

Skreech Verminking is armed with two Magic Weapons: a Doom Glaive and a Plaguereaper (see Verminlords). At the start of each Close Combat phase, you must declare which weapon he is going to use for that turn.

Queek must always be accompanied by his Red Guard, and may join no other unit. The Red Guard are a unit of Stormvermin with an additional +1 Strength. Queek must deploy with this unit and may not leave it. No Grey Seers may join the unit.

Queek must issue or accept challenges whenever possible. When fighting in a challenge, Queek gains +1 To Hit and To Wound.

Any non-Clan Pestilens unit within 6" of Nurglitch suffer -1 to their Weapon Skill. Furthermore, any such model in base contact with Nurglitch at the end of any close combat phase automatically takes a Strength 4 hit with the Ignores Armour Saves special rule that counts towards combat resolution.

Nurglitch and Bilios are subject to Frenzy and Hatred. Such is the inspirational effect Nurglitch has on his army that no Clan Pestilens units will lose their Frenzy whilst Nurglitch is still alive.

The Plague Lord is so favoured by his vile god that he has a Ward Save (5+). In addition, neither Nurglitch nor any unit he joins will ever suffer wounds from spells cast from the Lore of Plague or Lore of Nurgle. Furthermore, they automatically pass the test for the effects of plague censers.

Any models in base contact with Lord Skrolk suffer -1 on all of their To Hit rolls. All Clan Pestilens models are immune to such effects.

Throt has the Beastmaster special rule (see Master Mutators). In addition, unless he already is the Army General, all Clan Moulder units (except Characters) treat him as having the Inspiring Presence ability.

At the start of each of his turns, Throt must pass a Toughness test or start to eat one model in base contact of your choosing. This model suffers 1 Wound which Ignores Armour Saves and does not allow Ward Saves. If this is not possible, Throt will suffer 1 Wound with no saves allowed.

Any unit joined by Spinetail may re-roll To Wound rolls of 1 in close combat.

If Warlord Spinetail is in base contact with an enemy Infantry Character at the start of any close combat phase, he can attempt to throttle them with his tail. If he does, both you and your opponent roll a D6. If you roll the higher result, the enemy Character suffers one Wound which Ignores Armour Saves. If your result is at least double your opponent’s, that model suffers D3 Wounds which Ignores Armour Saves instead.

Any rolls on the Misfire table for all Clan Skryre units may be re-rolled.

If Klawmunkast is included in your army, you may upgrade one unit of Skavenslaves to Warpstone Mutants for +2 points per model. Warpstone Mutants have +1 Strength and Attacks.

Morbus causes Fear, even against friendly models.

All models in base contact with Morbus suffer a -1 To Hit penalty in close combat as they are distracted by the biting fleas.

If Morbus is included in your army, you may upgrade one unit of Plague Rats to Yellow Death Rats for +5 points per base. Yellow Death Rats have +1 Weapon Skill and Strength.

Once per friendly turn, at the start of any phase, Tretch can leave any unit he is with and make move of 2D6" as if it was the Remaining Moves phase.

Tretch can choose one unit of Clanrats or Stormvermin in your army to deploy as Ambushers as long as they do not have a Weapon Team. If so, Tretch must deploy with this unit. In addition, he and his unit re-roll all failed To Hit rolls when attacking in the flank or rear.

If you include Skweel Gnawtooth in your army, you must also include a unit of Giant Rats that he must join. After deploying Skweel into his unit, roll a D6 and consult the chart below to determine the pack's special attributes. The effects are for the entire pack but do not affect Skweel, Packmasters or Master Moulders. Skweel will never leave his special pack and may never join another unit.

Ghoritch has the Armour Piercing (3) special rule.

Ghoritch has the Frenzy special rule. If he ever loses his Frenzy, he will become subject to Stupidity for the rest of the game.

Two hand weapons. These claws give Veskit the Armour Piercing (1) and Magical Attacks special rules. In addition, they have the following missile profile:

Successful To Wound rolls against Veskit must be re-rolled.
