Clan Vulkn Tailslashers (Clanrats-Shields)

Clan Vulkn Tailslahsers (Clanrats-Shields) is a Skaven Regiment of Renown unit in Total War: Warhammer II. The cornerstone of the Skaven military, less numerous but better trained than the slave class.

Description
Clan Volkn dwells in fortress warrens carved into the searing heart of Fire Mountain. All clan members are branded upon birth and its warriors dye their fur a bright red. The warriors of Clan Volkn bear blades of shiny black obsidian, mined deep beneath their volcanic lairs. The Stormvermin and Warlords of Clan Volkn even incorporate this material into their armour, inscribing it with runes that glow red with an infernal heat. Clan Volkn's banners typically display icons and markings on a background of lava, flames, or else upon an image of an erupting volcano. Unsurprisingly, Clan Volkn breeds many pyromaniacs and the clan is known for its fondness of Warpfire Throwers. As a result, many of Volkn's warriors are covered in soot stains, scorched fur and scar-tissue.[1a]

Strategy
This units gets a 70% fire resistance as well as flaming attacks. This alongside its combat bonuses make it a decent melee unit especially if you expect regenerating/healing foes. They can be used alognside other Skaven infantry Regiments of Renown to form an elite army of rats.
