    Heya,

    here's my 1500 points list without a slann mage priest. My main opponents are Skaven and ogres.

    skink priest beast level 2, dispell scroll
    skink priest beast level 2, feedback scroll, bsb
    18 skink cohort
    10 skink skirmishers blow pipes
    10 skink skirmishers blow pipes
    25 saurus warriors standard bearer
    25 saurus warriors standard bearer
    stegadon
    salamander
    salamander

    total: 1500 points

    Both skinks in the saurus, cohort in front. salamanders and steg in one flank, skirmishers in the other.
    The rest is fairly self explanatory I think.

    What'ya think?

    Might want a scar-vet instead of a priest for general. (for leadership)
    Otherwise, pretty solid list.

    Priests can't be BSBs. You could try taking a chief BSB with a spear/light armour/shield riding on your Stegadon (for a 3+ AS and 3 S5 attacks on the charge, as well as an 18" Hold Your Ground range), which comes in at only 71 points, on top of the cost of the steg. To free up these points I'd drop the cohort, any leftover points can beef up your skirmishers/saurus. If you're playing with 50% heroes allowance this will fit easily. I'd also consider dropping the blowpipes for Javelins, I find that all too often you'll be hitting on 7's if you want to double-tap which defeats the purpose of poison. Other than that, I like it!

    Yeah I realized this as well. I need to rework it a little to include a chief. Unfortunately, as much as I like to include a steg mount, we are not playing end times. So that won't fit. Also, I cannot include a scarvet, as the upper skink chief must be my general (it's a BitB campaign game)

    Looks good to me. Are you bunkering the BSB in the cohort or putting all 3 characters in the Saurus?

    Yeah that was the idea. The cohort is there to invoke a charge or try too redirect.

    If there is enough points left over, give the Stegadon Unstoppable Stampede upgrade (+1A on the charge).
