    I have a match coming up against a dark elf player. I have a year of playing lizardmen under my belt, but just in small games, as money is short and my army is tough to expand. I currently have under my command:

    20 Saurus Warriors
    1 Saurus Hero (scar vet/oldblood)
    8 SCoC
    2 Sallies w/ 3 handlers
    12 skinks w/ blowpipes
    10 skinks w/ jav+ shield (possible conversion to blowpipes)
    2 skink priests

    My opponent has:

    24 Dark elf warriors
    20 or so repeater crossbowmen
    1 Sorceress
    20ish Corsairs
    10 Black Guard
    5 Cold One knights
    Possibility of assassins in his units, maybe 1-3

    I've beaten him every time (3 matchups) in 1250 pt games, some were close calls, but with the addition of the assassins and the black guard, i feel that i will be hard-pressed to win. Any tips on how to set up my army list? Even vs. DE tips would be appreciated :) thank you

    with cold one, if possible
    -some magic items, mundane armours


    Skink shaman 125pts
    lvl2, fireball


    Core:

    20x Saurus warriors 250
    full command

    12x Skink Skirmishers 84pts
    blowguns

    10x Skirmishers 80pts
    javelins

    7x SCoR
    flag+ music, banner of +1M/warbanner or if you got points banner of AP

    rare:

    sallies

    Avoid BGs and Warriors, Assasins propably hide there. Shoot BGs down, since they are only 10 strong

    Consider buying Terradons and camo skinks and Stega, they help a lot vs DE
