Incoming Skaven!

Some of you may know that I started playing Warhammer 40K while I was in the Marines. What you probably don't know is that the first Warhammer miniatures that I even bought were actually a box of Skaven Clanrats from the Games Workshop store in Carousel Mall. Adam Sinnett and I each bought a unit box (he got zombies, unfortunately the same exact models they sell today, 10 years ago), assembled and painted a couple, but then he went to school in Michigan and nothing really happened with them.

This November they are coming out with a new rulebook for the Skaven, as well as some brand-spanking new plastics, including Clanrats! I've always loved the Skaven, but their mainstay unit (Clanrats) look like monkey-men and are impossible to rank up with their ridiculously long tails. Here's a picture from the newest White Dwarf magazine, and I am INCREDIBLY EXCITED! I'm going to start selling crap on eBay right now so that I can afford to get the new Skaven stuff when it comes out.
