[@mikehus7439]

Thats VERY good

[@sagaofdice]

Hey thanks so much!

[@kakiip228]

Very good. Please make more skaven related tips~

[@sagaofdice]

Glad you enjoyed it, thanks for watching!

[@awijntje14]

Love these tips, thank you for sharing! I'll be playing a casual 1000 point tournament soon with a pestilence list and will now be adding gnawholes to that list. Hope there's more to come especially tactics on pestilence armies or general list building tips.

[@sagaofdice]

Hey thanks so much for the kind words! Definitely hoping to do more of this type of content!

[@VenGardGator]

very useful videos! Just started Skaven so lots of good info. Any chance of doing a general Skaven 101?

[@sagaofdice]

We actually did a couple of podcast style videos on them! Let me know if you can't find it and I will link you!

[@VenGardGator]

@@sagaofdice I watched them and I loved the idea of the rat bomb, I tried it out yesterday against some SBGL. They did very well, killed about 400 something points. Had my opponent very nervous about some tiny rats XD haha

[@Engra_]

Loving these. Keep em coming. Would love to see Alex do some. He's a crafty Git.

[@sagaofdice]

Thanks so much dude, that would be great! I'll see what I can do!

[@leeroijenkyns]

Can you explain how if a gnawhole is smashed, how it prevent skaven from jumping in, but not coming out of it?

[@sagaofdice]

It's basically because once you smash a terrain feature it loses all abilities but keeps its keywords so if you read the description you can see that you should be able to come out of one because it still retains the key words necessary but to go into it you need to have the ability. Hope I explained that okay!

[@leeroijenkyns]

@@sagaofdice I'm looking at the tome, but I don't see the keywords. Can you reference them? I just want to make sure because that is very good if so. I'm a first time Skaven player, and i got a mini tourney next month. Thx for the help.

[@sagaofdice]

@@leeroijenkyns sorry I'm so used to everything having a keyword that I forgot that terrain doesn't. Having said that it's definitely still legal, they don't lose the name Gnawhole, just the ability listed so you can still come out of one!

[@yamiwinchester5748]

Great ! The Combo with skitterleap, endless spell and jump back ist just awesome, never thought about it. Maybe you can make a video about Verminlord ranking ? From worst to best or something like that ?

[@sagaofdice]

I would love to do more content like that! Thanks for the great suggestion!

[@kakiip228]

Can a unit teleport through different gnawholes and ended up teleported back to the first gnawhole?

[@sagaofdice]

I'm not exactly sure of the question, but are you asking if the unit can teleport back and forth in the same phase?

[@kakiip228]

​@@sagaofdice yes. For example, Gnawhole A is close to an object. My hero can run close to gnawhold A but not able to reach the objective. Then i using Gnawhole A to teleport the hero to gnawhole B, and then use Gnawhole B to teleport the hero back to Gnawhole A to hold that objective. I think it is allowed since the teleport are done at the end of phase as per my choice of sequence.

[@sagaofdice]

@@kakiip228 I see what you're saying! To be honest, I hadn't thought of it but I don't see why not, you're not going into more than one gnawhole in that scenario... let me talk with Matthias but it sounds reasonable to me!

[@Kernel_Kertz]

@@kakiip228 why would you need a hero to be close to something just for an instant at the end of the movement phase before being teleported again?

[@voice9893]

More, more and more Strategie yes-yes. Good General Mathias gonna kill all the human Things and man Things. Maybe also list Analysis would be cool or Power pairs as Warp grinder plague monks. Levitate doomwheel etc

[@sagaofdice]

We did something kinda similar analysing his list at the grand finals. Let me know what you think but I would definitely love to do more content like this. If you want to see more we would be happy to do it just let me know! kzbin.infoXUy9HfL23us?feature=share

[@voice9893]

@@sagaofdice yep i have Seen this allready. Was really cool i Just binchwatch every skaven stuff you Post 👍 so i am allways down for more.

[@sagaofdice]

@@voice9893 we'll have to make more for sure. I think Matthias analysis of the current GHB with skaven would be a great idea for a vid! Thanks again!

Sitting at the feet of the Rat King!
