Nightlord Deathleaper and his disciples Rare Choice 350 Pts.
In times of great threat Clan Eshin will send out triads of their elite assassins to dispose of an enemy leader or cause havoc behind the lines. If the situation or target is deemed threating enough a nigh lord might be assigned to carry out the missions or lead a triad. Nightlord Deathleaper is a sensei to many Clan Eshin assassins and he trains small groups in the arts of stealth and death. When one of these missions is deemed necessary Nightlord Deathleaper will volunteer to carry out the mission with his students in tow. He considers the triad missions a way to weed out his weaker students, so only the best will survive to learn his skills.
Deathleaper’s Triadconsists of Deathleaper and two Skaven assassins and is deployed as a single skirmishing unit.

Nightclaw and his Black Skaven Clawpack Troop ChoiceNightclaw and Nine Black Skaven cost 100 pts. you can add more for 8 points a model
When Clan Eshin has need for a divisionary attack and often a suicide mission as well, the twelve Nightlords will go to one of their thrall clans and promise to train their most promising pack leaders in the Eshin ways. For the most part this is a subtle lie to find an expendable leaders and groups to make the attack. It is almost never herd of for one of these groups or leaders to survive the mission and receive the promised training. Nightclaw and his pack of black skaven are the exception. Nightclaw and his pack come from the Eshin thrall clan, of Clan Kreepus.
When it was deemed that a full frontal assault on the dwarf stronghold of Barak Cingar would not work the Nightlords thought it seemed fit that a diversionary assault would work. As the dwarf defenders would be too busy dealing with those attackers instead of the main assault. Nightclaw and his pack as well as 10 other claw packs from other thrall clans were chosen to take part in a rear attack on the dwarf stronghold two hours before the main attack. When the main attack began the Skaven had no resistance from the dwarf stronghold and when they breached the walls and entered they found all the dwarfs dead as well as the leaders of the other claw packs. The only Clawleader to remain was Nightclaw as well as a few night runners from all the claw packs. Since then Clan Eshin has sent Nightclaw and his black skaven on numeroussuicide missions in hopes he won’t return, but to their astonishment and disappointment they do.
