Skaven

 by Gideon Marcus

Inspired by the Skaven of Warhammer fame, these Skaven are giant, techologically advanced rats.  Their method of operation entails small, weak but fast ships which gang up on bigger targets.  Individually, their ships are unimpressive, possessing truly primitive weapons (Particle Beams, Lasers, and Missiles), they have very powerful drives and a racial advantage--each ship attacking the same target adds to the effectiveness of the others.  2 ships do double damage.  Three ships do triple damage, etc.  Ten Packrats against a dreadnought will encounter very little resistance!

Note: These ships have not been playtested.  If you play these guys, PLEASE let me know how it went.  Is their multiply factor too high?  Do you have ideas for other ships? (do NOT submit Skaven Super SpaceControl Battleship Dreadnought Carriers).
