Klawmunkast's Rat Tank is the most audacious and warped weapon of war he has created to date. In appearance it is similar to an Imperial Steam Tank, only it has been constructed from brass and planks of mouldering wood, while it moves around on a system of tracks, driven by rats racing around inside the machine.

This rat-race is also instrumental in powering the tank's impressive array of weapons through its warpstone generator. These weapons - the warpfire cannon, the warplock jezzail and the warp-lighting projector - are all mounted on the tank's exterior.

Weapons & Equipment: The Rat Tank mounts a Warpfire Thrower in the turret and Warp-Lightning Cannon on its hull. The Warlock Engineer commander is armed with a warplock pistol.

It's a Steam Tank! - For all intents and purposes the Rat Tank acts and uses the same rules as the famed Empire Steam Tank, which can be found in the Warhammer Annual 2002. The Rat Tank has 25 Hull Points.

Warpfire Thrower - In the Shooting phase, the Warpfire Thrower may be used, and it shoots in the same manner as the Warpfire Thrower as described on p28 of the Warhammer Armies: Skaven book. It costs 1 Steam Point to fire the Warpfire Thrower. If a misfire is rolled on the artillery dice, then instead of consulting the Warpfire Thrower Misfire Table, roll once on the Steam Tank Misfire Chart. If a 1 is rolled, in addition to the damage done to the Tank itself, the Warpfire Thrower is destroyed and cannot shoot for the remainder of the battle.

Warp-Lightning Cannon - In the Shooting phase, the cannon can unleash a bolt of green warp-lighting, which shoots in the same manner as the Warp-Lightning Cannon as described on p28-29 of the Warhammer Armies: Skaven book. It costs 2 Steam Points to fire the Warp-Lightning Cannon. If a misfire is rolled on the artillery dice, then instead on consulting the Warp-Lighting Cannon Misfire Table, roll twice on the Steam Tank Misfire Chart. Any roll of 1, and in addition to the damage done to the Tank itself, the Warp-Lightning Cannon is destroyed and cannot shoot for the remainder of the battle.

Klawmunkast's Pride - The Rat Tank can only by fielded if Klawmunkast is commanding the Clan Skyre army. The Tank counts as a 0-1 Rare choice. After all Klawmunkast only ever built one, so only one can be fielded in the entire army.

Well, that's the end of this Skaven Warpstone scenario. Historically, Morbus was successful in his coup to take over the warpstone mine. During the battle of Putrid Pit, the Rat Tank blew itself up and so also condemned Klawmunkast's machine to obscurity, never to be built or used again thanks to this catastrophic failure! Why not have a go at making your own scenario up with its own special rules? Above all though, have fun!
