Editing Deathmaster Snikch (section)

==Total War Warhammer==
The Deathmaster makes his debut in Total Warhammer in the Shadow and the Blade DLC, where he faces off against Malus Darkblade. In complete defiance of tabletop rules and fluff, Creative Assembly have applied their trend of turning named heroes into legendary lords to Snikch. We'll leave whether that's good, bad, or not worth caring about to you. Unitwise, his DLC draws from the Eshin list for Storm of Chaos, and adds the Master Assassin as a lord, Eshin sorcerer as a hero and the Eshin Triad as a new unit, as well as Warp Grinders and Poison-Wind Mortars to fill out the remaining weapon teams for the Skaven. Predictably Snikch himself excels at dueling and assassinating single lords and heroes, having good combat stats, armour sundering and increased damage the more health his target is missing. However he's also extremely squishy as he has very little armour and a pretty small healthpool, so he's ill-suited to fight it out in the infantry blobs on the frontline. But most notable about playing him is his late-game scheme Plunge Into Anarchy that only he can enact which [[Lulz|assassinates a faction leader and causes their entire faction to be replaced by rebels]] on a 100 turn cooldown, for when you just can't be bothered to grind through that #1 Strength Rank faction that's standing in the way of your victory objectives.

His reputation is also clearly such that players will hear their generic Skaven Assassins vocalize that, in an overinflated sense of self-worth typical for a Skaven, they fancy themselves a Deathmaster.

In TTW3, he’s managed to get into Cathay. If he hasn’t already been murdered by one of the siblings, he’s forging a ninja rat empire right under the Dragon Emperor’s nose. Before any of you even start, NO BLOODY NARUTO JOKES!! Nippon isn’t in the game yet.

Fun fact: He was originally classified as “Dual Sword Infantry” (A.K.A. CA didn't do their homework). After demand by a lot of fans, he is currently the only unit in the game classified as "Triple Sword Infantry" due to his tail-blade.
