Hello Generals,

I am playing a Skaven opponent this weekend and had a few questions as far as maneuvering. I will have my BoTWD SH Bus with noble, prince, level 4 and a level 2. Two units of PG. 2 Reaver units. And 3 bolt throwers.

I'm not sure I want to set up directly in the middle and just push it forward as I will probably get my bus flanked.

I think setting up off center would be the best tactic and try to advance against one side of the Skaven line and deal with the other half later.

What are the experiences of your battles? With only 5 or 6 units how do you mitigate being out maneuvered?

Thanks in advance!

Depending on terrain I would probably try to sweep across the board as opposed to lining up against him. It doesn't take much for the Skaven slave blocks to start getting in the way of one another, so should let you focus on one section of the army at a time.
