Hey. Have some lizardmen miniatures for waaaay back! My friends suggested to try the game, so here I am. 1000p list, and need your advice. General Slann starmaster Leader Engine of the Gods Units 10 Saurus Warriors (clubs) 10 Saurus Guard 5 Saurus Knight 10 Skinks (boltspitters and star Buckler) In my collection I have 1 slann 1 skink priest 1 saurus lord on cold one 20 saurus warriors 20 temple guard 10 skink with blow pipes 10 cold one riders 2 swarms engine of the gods
For what you've got, looks pretty solid to me! If your friend is proxying and fine with you proxy as well you have some more options. If you just want to try it out and get a fun game in, looks like you will accomplish your goal.
You have half your army wrapprd up in the slan and the engine, don't think it would last long in a tourney. You could try this: Leaders Saurus Scar-Veteran on Cold One (100) - General Skink Starpriest (100) Battleline 5 x Saurus Knights (120) - Lances - Seraphon Battleline 5 x Saurus Knights (120) - Lances - Seraphon Battleline 5 x Saurus Knights (120) - Lances - Seraphon Battleline 10 x Skinks (80) - Meteoric Javelins & Star Bucklers 5 x Saurus Guard (100) - Seraphon Battleline 5 x Saurus Guard (100) - Seraphon Battleline 5 x Saurus Guard (100) - Seraphon Battleline Units Battalions Firelance Starhost (60) Total: 1000/1000 The guard are there for back up support, but mostly to sit on objectives.
I agree. for a first game to try it out, the first list is fine. For any sort of very serious play, Bowser has it nailed. Your EoTG and Slaan suck up a lot of the total points and at this points value, not be worth it. Would be better to utilize your other heroes and fill out the remainder of the core to be more competitive.
