Yeah crazy game in the beginning. I had first turn, he popped storm banner which neutralized all my shooting and my frost phoenix.
But I rolled an 11 in magic phase and channeled with my only wizard for 12. I used fiery convocation which is #6. Well I rolled 6 dice for it and got 3 6's at his unit of 60 clan rats, best option in range, and I killed 37. Well I rolled a 4 on miscast table and killed 8 archers out of 18, um.... then my wizard got sucked into nothing because I rolled a 1 on that result. So yeah that's a thing. I dominated the left side of the table with a unit of 26 sword masters and unit of 18 silver helms. His storm banner lasted for 3 of my turns, my frost phoenix got a flank charge off on his rat ogres, and I had M 1 lolol um he shot his doom rocket and hit 12 silver helms, wounding 10 and I pass 2 4+ saves.
But my frost phoenix made the rat ogres lose combat and fled. I pursued and caught and gave his remaining clan rats (think 20, but 10 wide) my phoenix flank, he charged. Did nothing, I saved the 2 wounds. I killed off 10 rats from my 4 attacks and I rolled a 6 on stomp. He fled, I didn't pursue. He gave up when my phoenix charged into his doom wheel and killed it. It was way over though.
Oh by his turn 3 his hell pit charged into my 32 elf unit of phoenix guard. First round, I put 1 wound, 2nd round 2, 3rd round 2, 4th round I finally killed it. But it didn't even kill off half my unit, between it's rolling 3d6 attacks 3 of those rounds, because of stomp to. I lost the first round of his hell pit combat by 2, but passed the break test on a 8, because I gave them the standard of discipline.
He was upset that he had no way to deal with the phoenix, he didn't even put one wound on it. It killed 2 units at full power, and finished off a unit half strength.
I don't think Skaven have a good way to deal with the phoenix besides the doom wheel, but if I use units to cover the phoenix, I just out maneuver too
