Hello everyone, I wanted to buy a skink starter, is there some kind of universal roster out of this box that is suitable for both war cry and aos. Before that I played only 40k, I know almost nothing about this faction. I only have a gang of lizards for underworlds )
I have an idea like this ++ **Pitched Battle** (Order - Seraphon) [490pts] ++ + Leader + Skink Starpriest [120pts]: 1. Incandescent Rectrices, 1. Master of Star Rituals, 6. Tide of Serpents, General + Behemoth + Bastiladon [220pts]: Solar Engine + Battleline + Skinks [60pts]: 10 Skinks, Skink Alpha . Boltspitter and Moonstone Club + Other + Terradon Riders [90pts]: 3 Terradon Riders, Sunleech Bolas, Terradon Rider Alpha + Allegiance + Allegiance . Allegiance: Seraphon: Coalesced + Game Options + Game Type: No Points or Battlerole Validation (Open) ++ Total: [490pts] ++ For Warcry 4 Skinks Boltspitter and Moonstone Club 3 Terradon Riders Sunleech Bolas 1 Skink Starpriest leader
Welcome to the forums! I wish I could offer good advice but my tactical nous is practically nonexistent. But I'm sure someone will be along who can give you good guidance soon!
I wouldn't search for something strong out of the SC box. It is only SC anyway. Some general rules: - boltspitter and shield is still the best load out for skinks; - bastiladon takes solar engine, no "ifs"; - terradons are probably still better with bolas.
I'll think of something, it's just that in our club, the warcry starts first, I'm not sure about the AoS, but I hope we'll start, it is difficult to lure people from 40k to fantasy, I myself play for the order of the salamanders))
You can go for boltspitter+club. It won't, like, destroy your army. And clubs can be good in large blocks of skinks.
You couid also just give your skinks both shields and clubs, it won't matter for warcry and in aos proper the shields are going to be the most visible thing on that arm, so it probably won't be an issue to just run them as that
