Clan Skryre

This article related to Warhammer Fantasy Battle is a stub. You can help 1d4chan by expanding it.

Clan Skryre is one of the four major clans of the Skaven, and along with Clan Moulder represent the scientific bent to the race. They specialize in making technological wonders, often combining mechanical ingenuity with Warpstone-powered magic and expendable slaves or idiots to carry the damn things. Their inventions range from the Skaven-portable Warplock jezzail, to the Warpfire Thrower (read: magic flamethrower), all the way up to the mighty Warp Lightning Cannon. They also made a Chaos nuclear bomb once and placed it under the capital city of the MANTHINGS once, but it failed to detonate. In general, the more powerful the device, the less reliable it is -- the results of using one are always spectacular, but sometimes they do more harm to the user than the intended target (which is why Clan Skryre tends to behave like wizards and stand amongst their bodyguards while the footplodders do their work). This suits Skryre just fine, as long as they get enough data to make something better.

tl;dr They have the best gubbinz and they sell said gubbinz to everyone else.

More recently, they developed the Farsqueaker, a telephone-like communications device that has managed to unify the Skaven tribes for the first time in recorded history.

Notable figures/Noteworthy regiments

Klawmunkast- the famous "Warlock Caster", Klawmunkast was the pioneer of one of Clan Skryre's best weapons- the Warplock Pistol. A gifted inventor and surprisingly enthusiastic commander, Klawmunkast was always willing to do whatever it took to make the next big thing. His image currently sits in the gallery below.

• Warpstone Mutants- side-effects of Klawmunkast's botched experiments with the mysterious "Rat Tank", those Skavenslaves that survived the explosions and leaks of warpfire mutated horribly. Their sanity long since eroded away, they have developed several interesting evolutions- from multiple limbs to a Superman-esque physique.

• 
  Minor innovation of Skryre Engineers.
• 
  A more advanced piece of Skaven equipment pioneered by Clan Skryre.
• 
  The most advanced weapon to ever grace the field of battle in Warhammer Fantasy. Misfire causes it to become a neutral Monstrous Creature that wanders the field eating the basing material on your minis.
• 
  In Dreadfleet, Skryre Engineers decided to turn a giant dead fish into a warship. No, really. It's a little known fact but much win on /tg/ comes from Skaven fucking off at work.
• 
  Little known fact, but Chemrat served in the Skaven armed forces until the age of 17, whereupon she went to Hoeth to become an actress.
• 
  Like the Adeptus Mechanicus, but actually get shit done and know how it happened!
• 
  Skaven snipers. World War 1 tech in a universe dominated by renaissance and stone age technologies. Don't worry though, the bullet will probably fire out the back of the gun.
• 
  Clan Skyre nobility, Klawmunkast.
• 
  The best of the two SCIENCE clans.
• 
  Orks, eat your heart out.
