Below you will find quickplay army lists for Ratmen from Age of Fantasy.
Note: as v2.50 is in constant development the following might not be accurate.
Vanguard (500pts)
This is a v2.50 list you can build using the Vanguard: Skaven box from Games Workshop, or any other models of your choice.
It's missing 5 points. Doesn't really matter, I think.
Your Clanrats are run as Conscripts. The point total of the list would go above or below 500 by too much if they were all run as Warriors, and as they are all visually identical, splitting it into a Warriors and Conscript unit didn't feel right. If you do want to do that, you can free up the necessary 30 points by lowering the Rat Artillery's weapon back down to the default Heavy Cannon (30", A2, AP(2), Deadly(3)). With the remaining 5 points, you could make one of the Warriors a Sergeant for a 4+ to-hit.
I don't agree with Stormfiends being Tough(3), but it is what it is. If they were Tough(6) they wouldn't be in a group of 3, most likely. They're your best punchin' unit. 5 AP(2) + 2 normal attacks on the charge, hitting on 3+, per model, is going to do a lot of work. At this point level, it might be enough to kill anything they encounter. Don't let them 'be' charged however, as 3+ armor is not as good as it sounds, and you might not get enough damage in on the return hits to win.
Just put the Wizard wherever you want it. It's probably best on the Conscripts, as their 6+ in everything means they'll need natural 6s to hit anyways, so they're a good target for your Poison buff.
