    Hi all,

    I’ve got a campaign upcoming in which I intend to field my Lizardmen (new player to Lizardmen).
    I’ll be competing with High Elves, Dark Elves, Vamps, Tomb Kings, Chaos dwarves and a few other factions.

    2000 point base army with up to 100 pts of magical items on top. No named characters/end times.

    I’ve prepared the following list, open to critique and suggestions:

    Slann, level 4. BSB. Becalming cogitation, harmonic convergence, wandering deliberations. Channelling staff.

    Scar Vet, Cold one, armour of Destiny, GW.

    Scar Vet, Cold one, Dawn stone, dragonhelm, GW and Light armour.

    2 x level 1 skink priests. One beasts one heavens.

    2 x 20 saurus warriors. Full command.

    2 x 10 skink skirmishers with javelins.

    2 x 5 chameleon skinks.

    20 temple guard. Full command.

    2 x salamanders with extra snacks.

    Any thoughts, feedback, changes welcomed.

    It's a great list for not knowing who you're going up against, but I would switch Salamanders for a Stegadon.

    For me, no Lizardmen list is complete without a Stegadon, they are really useful in a number of scenarios.

    We can expand armies as the campaign progresses, so that was next on my list. Think it’s best to have the Stegadon from the start?

    Looks like a solid list. I'm always carefull fielding monsters, they attract shooting. But with the armies you are facing it should only be a problem against the elves.

    Assuming an 8th Edition list, Chaos Dwarfs have access to some very nasty shooting. Dreadquake Mortars, Deathshrieker Rocket Launchers and Hellcannons.

    Overall though, yeah, it's a good all-comers list.

    And the Steam Cannonade on the Iron Daemon. That thing can put a hurting on monsters and monstrous units. S6, armour piercing and Multiple Wounds (D3).
