History
Following the Second Skaven Civil War, with the help of Clan Skryre the clan was able to replace the crude catapults it had used previously with great wheeled scaffold-towers bearing catapults. [1a]
Weapon
The Plagueclaw is able to launch loathsome missiles made from disease-soaked corpses, poison and foul magic - these cover their unfortunate targets with a toxic liquid that causes skin to slough off even as the flesh errupts in sores, armour is no protection against such a weapon. It is crewed by Plague Monks [1a]
