So I've been thinking about some shambler minion options with my Skorne. I'm reaching for Makeda 1 with her feat keeping the Bokor alive adding in a thin one (PGTM) for tough on the shamblers and other tricks.
As soon as I reached for the PGTM I started thinking about adding in that unit of gators that's been sitting gathering dust.. 7pts cheaper than the cats+willbreaker combo. Okay so they don't threaten as far but that kinda helps on feat turn!......
Easy tiger...back away from the gators.. its just a cadaveric spasm .. you know they are dead to you and skorne....
Sorry back to the post.. Shamblers anyone had any joys running them?

I haven't been running shambles but I have been running Farrow with mak1 with some pretty good results, granted I succeeded an absurd amount of tough checks in some of these games.
Mak1
-Cannoneer
-Cannoneer
-Ardus solider
Task master
Tast master
Extoller soulward
Willbreaker
Max Farrow Brigands
-Warlord UA
Slaughterhousers
Slaughterhousers
Cannoneers and brigands shoot stuff on its way in and to get as many wounds on enemy models as possible so that the slaughterhousers can charge at Mat9 with POW13 (thank you task master) and take down to ruin my opponents day.
Mak1's feat is a great delivery system to make sure the slaughterhousers make it to their targets alive.

I like Morghoul 2 with Double Brigands. Any caster that can get them an ARM debuff will let them get to POW 16 against their Prey is real good.

As I've gone troop heavy with Morg3, I've got shamblers there. A boosted stationary on one model makes landing blind on the unit much easier.

Stationary from the hand is super effective at getting off those debuffs to that end I don't have Morg3 but have Morg2...Getting of mortality without boosting sounds like a good reason to try the shamnblers and drop Marketh potentially... I wanted to bring the despoiler with the lord assassin but struggled as I always had Marketh penciled in..

How hard is it to keep the Gatorman Bokor alive sense the shamblers don't block LOW to the Bokor as its on a larger than the shamblers?

PGTM adds a bit of potential survivability with scutter for extra 3' reposition after activation... tough doesn't help the bokor as it's already native but does help the shamblers.. and the pain driver is just gravy
The gloryshot with Morg2 = mortality + despoiler apply pain driven bokor to a gargolssus and watch it melt.. Still getting that off is going to need some doing..

Seems like Karax + Shamblers + PGTM should be a pretty good way to clog up a flank or zone forever.
