You’ve also got units such as the Ark of Sotek, which is the big, armoured Bastiladon which will sort of spew snakes from the top of it and deal damage around it. So, they’re quite useful in that capacity. We’ve equipped them with Great Weapons, so giant hammers, so they’re very… not solid, obviously they’re still Skinks, but they have the ability to move fast and get around the flanks with these armour-piercing weapons. You’ve got the Red-Crested Skinks they’re basically the blessed Skinks of this religion. “For the Lizardmen’s perspective, they’re all focused around Tehenhauin and his Cult of Sotek. You’ve got units like the Doom-Flayers, which is the Skaven’s take on a chariot. So, they work quite well with other missile units like the Ratling Guns you’ll reduce their chance to block and then you’ll hit them with a fusillade of fire. They’re at extreme range, so they’re kind of the opposite of the Ratling Guns, where they’re very few shots but each one is deadly accurate and also negates their target’s ability to block projectiles as well. Besides that, we have the Warplock Jezails, who are the Skaven sniper teams with the big shields protecting them. Basically, this thing has got a high rate of fire and it actually suppresses targets as they approach, so it slows them down. You’ve got units such as the Ratling Gun, which is obviously the sort of Skaven’s take on the Gatling gun it’s a medium-range suppressive machine gun. So, their ability to deal damage at range is hugely increased. GD: “From a battle perspective, what the Skaven will be getting is a hefty buff to their ranged potential. No doubt some of this will be apparent once the DLC is announced, but before we get to specifics, can you give me kind of an overview of what fans will be getting in The Prophet and The Warlock?
We also have the aspect that Tehenhauin is a very religious character, and then on the other hand, you have Ikit Claw who’s very scientific, mechanical… so again, that’s like a perfect match-up.” So yeah, we have Ikit Claw, who matches up perfectly with Tehenhauin because it’s the age-old Skaven versus Lizardmen match-up. So that always determines which Lords we choose we try to find ones that match up really well together. MH: “I think I was… in terms of like what you mentioned we like to do sort of a head-to-head style for all of our Lord packs.
For example, in this one in particular we were focusing on Clan Skryre because for Skaven we felt like getting those weapon teams in there and getting those extra war machines in there was beneficial – and would enhance gameplay.” GD: “I think it’s… well from my perspective at least, it’s a case of looking at what the main content team have done what they have released and what I feel that the roster’s lacking in terms of units.
