    Hey Lustria! Feels good to be painting and playing AoS again. I want to play with more Skinks. I'm a skink at heart.

    Leaders:
    Slann Starmaster
    Engine of the Gods
    Skink Starpriest

    Units:
    20x Skinks
    10x Skinks
    10x Skinks
    6x Rippers

    Behemoths:
    Stegadon (thinking flamethrower)

    Shadowstrike Starhost

    This is a 1500 point skink army led by the Slann. I think this strikes a solid competitive balance that will let me fight most armies with success. You can teleport the engine and stegadon to do some cool turn 1 things alongside the Rippers. I am worried about the size of my Skinks, but at 1500 it's hard to fit everything in. Do you think it would be better to take the Rippers down to 3 and beef up the skinks? Also any advice on the new Artifacts would be great!! Is Incandescent Rectrices a requirement for the Slann? I'm imaging if you keep Curse of Fates up you can pretty easily bring him back and then try to teleport him the next turn.

    What do you think?

    Also, thank you to Adam Trunz for the inspiration for this list. It mimics the main core of his army.

    Hmmmm I think the list can work but you are dangerously low on wounds.
    If your glass cannon doesn't work you are toast.
