the circumstance of this deployment the fact that there is only one big unit of slaves wont make a huge differnce. i would check out if you are able to put this unit of slaves in your deployment zone, because of the pure size dimensions, i think it will be a little longer then 12 inch( I just checked, they are exactly 12 inch). I would place the hpa relativly central, nearby the slaves and try to make it impossible to ignore or avoid it for your opponent. You ve got warpstone on it, so it will have a kind of psychological impact to your opponent when he will decide do go in direction of your flank with the hexwraithes. Have you thought of where to place your seer an bsb? If you manage it to redirect the generals unit bear in mind that you will meet one other heavy hitter. @moreDakka: I would go for the second combination, because i think its mor versatile. Also, 2 HPA wont make you many friends Re: Skaven in 8th Ed. Thanks! Yes, he has more drops than me but the positive side of it is that I get the +1 for the first turn, so have with a little luck one good round for shooting / redeployment more. We will roll for the scenario (except for the watchtower scenario), so we can also roll the scenario where we do not know where our units start (scenario 2). Could also be the mountain
