After talking a little with Dan (my new regular opponent) it seems like 5000 point games are going to be the new norm for me. He actually wanted to play even larger games but I gently reminded him that we have to make sure the game is an appropriate size for the amount of time that we have to play games.
I was bored so here's what I'll eventually build to with my skaven:
Lords: Queek Headtaker (general) Warlord (heavy armor, fellblade) Grey Seer (Earthing Rod, Talisman of Endurance)
Heroes: Plague Priest (Plague Censer, Talisman of preservation, plague furnace) Chieftan (bsb, armor of destiny, shield) Warlock Engineer (doomrocket) Warlock Engineer (Obsidian lodestone) Warlock Engineer (lvl1 upgrade, dispel scroll) Warlock Engineer
Core: 80 Skavenslaves (musician) 80 Skavenslaves (musician) 80 Skavenslaves (musician) 60 Stormvermin (full command, QUEEK'S STORMVERMIN, Standard of Discipline, Ratling Gun) 5 Giant Rats (packmaster) 5 Giant Rats (packmaster) 5 Giant Rats (packmaster) 5 Giant Rats (packmaster) 40 Clanrats (full command, ratling gun) 40 Clanrats (full command, plague wind mortar)
Special: 55 Plague Monks (full command, plague banner) 9 Gutter Runners (slings, poisoned attacks) 9 Gutter Runners (slings, poisoned attacks) 9 Gutter Runners (slings, poisoned attacks)
Rare: Warp Lightning Cannon Warp Lightning Cannon Warp Lightning Cannon Warp Lightning Cannon Hellpit Abomination Hellpit Abomination Doomwheel
I'll paint up a bunch of rat swarms/giant rats/rat ogres as well to use as unit fillers and to break up all the monotony that comes from painting horde armies.
Will look pretty impressive, especially alongside my WoC when I field a grand army of the everchosen!

Awesome about the 5k points games you will be playing.
That skaven army is certainly going to look like a skaven army with all those numbers.

No Plague Claw Catapults? Even two of those would hit Empire hordes HARD!
Looks like fun though!

I don't have the models...
Also I don't know what I would replace to get them. I would like some though

Hmmm...Maybe the Gutter Runners? I suppose it depends on how you're planning on using them.
I'm just a sucker for themed, fluffy lists, and seeing how many Plague Monks you have there, it just seems fun. Not to mention, it might be a good way to thin out a lot of the hordes you'll be facing.

Gutter Runners are for anti-warmachine duty. 18 poisoned sling shots = 3 poison wounds statistically. I could drop a unit of them for a plagueclaw I suppose. Ideally I'd like a pair of them as in my experience unless it's of dwarven make then a single one doesn't do much.
