How ridiculous would something like this be... Allegiance: Seraphon Leaders Slann Starmaster (260) - General - Trait: Great Rememberer - Artefact: Incandescent Rectrices Skink Starpriest (80) Engine of the Gods (220) Engine of the Gods (220) Battleline 10 x Skinks (60) - Boltspitters & Star Bucklers 10 x Skinks (60) - Boltspitters & Star Bucklers Endless Spells Balewind Vortex (40) Chronomantic Cogs (60) Total: 1000 / 1000 Extra Command Points: 0 Allies: 0 / 200 Wounds: 51 Obviously I'm going all in on summoning for this list. I thought about doing Shadowstrike, I have 3 rippers which i know isn't optimal but definitely still strong. But toying around with this good rolls from my Engines could get my skinks on the board while my Slann could focus on getting bigger dinos out there. Seems like its a will do great some games and fall on its face others kind of list Thoughts?
I'd bring another 20 more skinks or 3 razordons instead of the starpriest and balewind. You need more pressure or screening in your army to start on the table. This list is extremely passive, which will make it hard to get onto objectives early. More screening units would help with that. Summoning is strong and all, but it doesn't matter if you've already lost the game on turn 2 because they shot the slann off the table before you could summon and you can't get to the objectives, or if they kill your summons or get on top of your army turn 1 or 2 to deny summoning space. It'll do great vs slow armies without shooting, but IMO, it's a bit too vulnerable outside of that.
The list should do fine vs armies that aren't capable of turn one reach. However if the enemy can shoot you turn one or it is something like Beast of Chaos, Daughter of Khain, Idoneth, or other armies that can make turn one charges there is a decent chance you will be tabled turn one.
