Yo Cold Blooded Brothers. Love the Lizard, been playing a long time with them just not on a tourney scale. Yup my tourney list. keep it short: Dawn attack, battle line x2. 3 games that could be against Dark elf/High Elf/Wood Elf/Vamps/Dwarfs/Skaven/beastmen. Have had a very high success rate at this point lvl against these lesser races. My List: Old Blood Cold one, Light Armour, GW Dawnstone S Warriors (muso/StB) (Hw/shield)x10 S Skirmishers x10 (Bp) S Skirmishers x10 (Bp) S Skirmishers x10 (Bp) Camo Skinks x5 Bastiladon - Solar Engine Bastiladon - Solar engine Terradon Riders x3 Salamander Salamander 1188 My strategy in games so far: is to split there army into two forces (left and right flanks) force a redirect and pepper the two till one flank starts to fold, then move in with the lord and Terrodon for the kill. Or in most cases watch the opponent group up and then watch as one unit at a time goes down to concentrated fire. This strategy has worked quite well. Not Having a caster is a bit of a concern, but with the 2 blastadons and there ability they are op at this point lvl. Obliviously a well placed artillery shot can end that option, and it has happened; but massed SS/CS with a prowling lord is very hard for opponent to deal with. Why only 10 SWarriors, I find they are not much useful for the skirmish style of play, but they are great at occupying a building and forcing a opponent to deal with them in the building (20 attacks is nasty) or forcing the opponent to run around and get shot up by mass shooting. SSkirmisher I'm 50/50 on Javes or Blow pipes My lord is usually out sight when the game starts for protection. I use the lord more in a support/hunter/cleanup role. A question i do have is with my lord and his load out. As it is i have around 15 points to play with. The lord is light on survivability only having a armour save. Dragon helm is a option. Flaming attacks are something of rarity at this point lvl (my experience). There is also the chance for ethereal units but i have a 1/12 chance of playing the vamps. i have thought about the the Sword of Striking to get a magic item in the game, but the GW is hard to give up. Any ideas would be great.
Add charmed shield to the lord. You've got the spare points, and he'd like a 2+ ignore the first cannon ball. -Matt
