skrag/butcher question

original thread ↗

If I field skrag, do I still need to field a maw butcher before I can field a beast/death/heavens butcher?
"However, if you field any Butchers and/or Slaughtermasters in your army, at least one of them must choose his spells from the Lore of the Great Maw."  (pg 35)

"Skrag is a Level 4 Wizard that uses the Lore of the Great Maw."  (pg 59)

Unfortunately, Skrag no longer counts as a butcher/sm in the new rulebook.  By a strict reading of the rules, you still need to field additional casters to get choose a different lore.

Snark is right, from the RAW perspective.

I really can't think why they didn't FAQ this, they had to in the last army book, but I am fairly confidant that it will be FAQ'ed eventually that he is indeed a SM.
Current win streak: 10
