You're thinking of shadow, and no, once he's in TG he can't leave until the unit is completely destroyed.
You are absolutely right, I don't know why i had it in my head that incomplete full ranks in wider formations didn't count. Let's actually do the...
Your math is a bit off; even if you kill 5 the 5x4 would still have 3 ranks, and as long as the 5x4 kills one you only have 2 ranks, thus the 5x4...
Having seen and fought against them a few times I haven't been impressed by hordes, at least in the 10 wide formation. I think that outside of a...
Then it looks like an extremely solid list, once you get a few games in with it I'd love to hear how it works out.
Only change I would make is switch out the razordons for salamanders. Razors have always let me down, but sallies are amazing in 8th. Edit--...
Actual horde (10 wide) wouldn't be worth it, 250mm frontage means that a lot of your guys on the edges wouldn't be getting their attacks in, so...
Most of this is dead on, but don't count out lore of beasts. Even without transformation (RIP means I would never use it anyway) Wildform gives a...
Page 88-- If a model carries a special close combat weapon he must fight with it in the close combat phase. (Emphasis mine.) So TG can use their...
Because it says specifically down towards the bottom that regrowth cannot be used to heal characters or their mounts.
I wouldn't take any of our special characters to anything other than a historical re-fight or themed list, and even then I'd probably complain...
Doesn't work on characters, EOTGs, carnosaurs, or a steg taken as a skink chief mount, but everything else (including regular stegs and ancient...
You need 104.5 more points in core for the list to be legal. I suggest beefing out the saurus and adding another unit of skinks. Trade harrowing...
He's wrong, the only thing you lose is the parry save, which isn't all that great anyway.
You only use the halberd with two hands in combat, you can use the shield against shooting/magic.
Speaking of old editions, anyone remember when scaly skin was like a ward save? I miss those days.
Light armor gives them a 4+, 3+ vs shooting.
Page 490, second paragraph says that you pick a lore when you create an army. So, no more tailoring lores to the opponent before the game starts....
I wouldn't say life is cookie cutter as much as "lore made for us but others can use". I really wish light was available to skinks though, I have...
Well, terries got iffy in 8th. Since you can only attack with two at a time (monstrous cav count as 3 models each, you can fight with 6 models...
