I am just starting to play warhammer fantasy but I really like Lizardmen and I am starting to build and army, the local game store has a lot of people just starting so it seemed like a good time to start. They are running events at 1.5k for starters to help newer players learn the game. The list I am working on so far is: Slann focus of mystery Becalming cognition Lore: Life BSB 350 points ----------------------- 20x Temple Guard 320 points ----------------------- 20x Saurus Warriors(Spear, BSB) 252 points ----------------------- 20x Saurus Warriors(Spear, BSB) 252 points ----------------------- 10x Skink Skirmishers(Blowpipe) 70 points ----------------------- 10x Skink Skirmishers(Bloowpipe) 70 points ----------------------- 5x Cold One Cavalry 175 points ----------------------- Total Points: 1489of 1500 Comments and Criticism welcome, I really do want to run the temple guard and Slann in the list.
I would alter the Saurus into one unit especially with spears - This will give you a total of 20 attacks from the front, 10 in 2nd, 10 in 3rd and 10 in 4th (total 50 attacks!) depending on how many in base contact. Worth noting that saurus standard bearers are not battle standard bearers. Slann as BSB is only really worth it if you take a standard as well. If you can alter the points then give your skirmishers javelin and shield instead of blowpipe. Shield plus hand weapon gives 6+ ward save, shield gives 6+ armour save Might pay to lose one of the skink packs and replace with 5 x cham skinks..... Good news for new LM players is a new book rumoured on the horizon!!! Welcome to the scaly side Wizgamer
solid list, but i think that if you drop the cold one cavalry and take a couple of salamanders it's better. Also if you don't run a skrox my advice is to give the razor standard to the temple guard for fighting high armoured targets
are you allowed a slaan at 1,500 points? thought it was no lord choices in an army under 2,000 points? could be wrong
if you go with life 375 points is enough to make a pretty powerful slann: i usually give him the plaque of tepok, becalming and the bonus dice, and i make him bsb or give him a dispell scroll
my mistake. In my gaming group we have a home rule: a wizard can take a number of arcane items up to his magic level. I got confused
I have updated the list after looking at the feedback on this site and some others, this is what I am now thinking of fielding: Slann(375){attached to Temple Guard} Ruination Mystery Cognition ----------------------------------- Temple Guard(515) 30 models Full Command ----------------------------------- Scar Vet(110){Attached to Saurus Warriors} Golden Sigil Sword Charmed Shield ----------------------------------- Saurus Warriors(360) 30 models Shield/Hand Weapon Full Command ----------------------------------- Skink Skirmishers(70) 10 Models Blowpipes ----------------------------------- Skink Skirmishers(70) 10 Models Blowpipes ----------------------------------- Points: 1500 Models: 82
