Opinion: Which faction has the best skirmishers?
in my mind: skaven (huge collection of fast missle rats)

Obv no one plays the game?? Skaven gutter runners with poison specially as eshin. Best in the game by a mile.

Depends on what you call skirmishers- if cavalry's on the table, probably Empire.

Yeah. Don't get me wrong, some other factions have pretty legit skirmishers, but I'm thinking stuff like Outriders or Outriders w/ grenade launchers or even better, the state troop Outriders from Marienburg.

Skirmishers are best when they can delete whole units in a volley.

Truly op... cav cant even catch them... as eshin a full gutter runner army with poison and warlock for ammo boost is probs the strongest army in game for the cost. Specially when ambushing you just shred everything at the start of the battle and nothing can catch you...

In campaign? Easily wood elves. Waywatchers with sacrificial hunting grounds are insane. Its arguably the most powerful doomstack in the game. In mp theres a lot more at play, but probably wood elves again, though the majority of factions has some very potent/cost effective skirmishers.
