The Deployment:
Clanrats and Stormvermin protect the Stormfiends. Warpfire teams are inside the castle waiting to cook some bones. Arkhan stays close to his bodyguards. Skeletons ready to march on the other side of the battlefield.

Skaven Turn 1:
Hell Pit Abomination and the Clanrats assault Arkhan and the rest of the units close to him. They leave Arkhan in one wound, then I lose almost all of my models.

Death Turn 1:
Arkhan and his bodyguards kill all the Clanrats and the Spirit Hosts are ready to taste more rat flesh.

Skaven Turn 2:
Engineers call a warp storm that kills a Morghast Archai then Stormvermin and the rest of the characters kill the Spirit Hosts and the Knight of Shrouds. Warpfire Thrower Weapon Team kills 5 Black Knights.


Death Turn 2:
Arkan resurrects the Spirit Hosts then kills my Arch-Warlock. Spirit Hosts and Morghast Archai assault the Stormvermin but most of them die an I lose only 5 rats. Black Knights kill my Weapons Team.

Skaven Turn 3:
Stormfiends wound badly Arkan and the Stormvermin finish the job. They also kill the last Spirit.

Death Turn 3:
Skeletons continue to advance towards my units. Stormvermin kill the Cairn Wraith.

Skaven Turn 4:
Everybody starts to run from the incoming wave of Skeletons.

Death Turn 4:
Again the army advances. Black Knights fail the charge on the Stormfiends.

Skaven Turn 5:
I can taste victory since I got to the edge of the battlefield and I am a safe distance away from any model.

Death Turn 5:
Black Knights try again to charge the Stormfiends and again they fail.

Skaven survive and win this round!
