So I got more models for my birthday. 40 Plague Monks, 40 IOB Clan rats, 20 Clanrats.

So I had three thoughts:
Unit fillers
Slaves
Gutter Runners/Night Runners

Here's the catch, IOB clanrats have shields built into their left side, making them impossible to pose. GRs and NRs don't come with shields, will they look too out of place? Can I cut down the shield and cover with a cloak?
What do you think of using Monks for Gutter Runners? I guess its capes vs cloaks.
