    considering the amount of casting power you have you should focus more on offense then defense with that in mind i would swap the diadem for the plaque of tepok

    i would make your unit of saurus 6x3 with no champ and i would lose 3 temple guard between the scar-vet and the slann that will bring them to 15 you could also lose the cold-one champ which gives you another 40 pts

    and with the points you save you can get a scar-vet on cold-one and give him the BBoC and enchanted shield
    what this does is give you your champ's str a better WS and way more -AS on attacks not to mention more attacks plus another cold-one rider so a total of 7 in the unit now you have a real challenger in that unit and a real hammer unit

    i would also split up your skinks into 2 units of 10

    Your Slann should cost 395, BSB is 25 pts.

    And you should definitely give at least one saurus block spears, they do so much pain that way. 2 attacks times 2 ranks! :jimlad: :meh:

    thanks for the feedback, i've taken your advice and made some modifications to my list. The scar vet will now go in the unit of cold-ones. i will be fielding my saurus in rows of 6x3, the unit with spears should get a total of 24 attacks on the charge. my skinks were broken into 2 blocks of 10, one of them with a kroxigor.
    i have 14 points left over, if you can think of anything, let me know.

    You could do with some blowpipes, perhaps drop the skink brave and then upgrade that unit to skirmishers.

    Your first list-tweak changed you list for the better. You can still improve it though.

    Your list - with advised tweaks-->
    ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    395pts-Slann mage priest- focus of mystery, the focused rumination.
    Cupped hands of the old ones. BSB (PERFECT, except GIVE War Banner)

    440pts-Skink Priest- lvl2 upgrade engine of the gods, plaque of Tepoc, dispel scroll. (DROP the LEVEL 2 upgrade, and the PLAQUE. WHY?

    1 -> With him being level one and keeping the scroll you have 5 DISPEL DICE [lots, really] and still a scroll.

    2 -> Heavans magic sucks.

    3 -> It frees up points that can be spent on a unit/s, which is always useful, as opposed to more magic and magic protection, which is only SOMETIMES USEFUL. (Play the odds when it comes to points allocation).

    4 -> You spend less on your characters, and you army loses total Power Dice. This is good because
    A] -- Your army looks less cheesy and hence is more likely to get higher Army Composition points when it gets judged for Soft-Scores before a tournament.
    B] -- Doesn't even matter cos the Slann doesn't lose any PD, and he's he one that actually does stuff with his magic.

    145pts-Saurus scar vet.- burning blade of chotec , enchanted shield, light armour, cold-one.

    154pts-Saurus temple gaurd- revered gaurdian. Dagger of sotec (DROP Dagger of sotec , its cool but not worth the points.)

    212pts-Saurus warriors- 18, standard bearer, musician, spears. (MAKE FULL COMMAND)

    194pts- Saurus Warriors- 18, standard bearer, musician (MAKE FULL COMMAND AND give BOTH units spears, bro. Most important change) [Additional - Saurus with spears BLEND PEOPLE!]

    260pts-cold one cavalry- 6, standard bearer, musician, (DROP ONE, so you have FRONTAGE of 6 with the Scar-vet in the unit.) [Additional - They are real expensive and kinda crap].

    56pts-skinks- 10, skink brave. (DROP Brave)

    105pts-skinks- 10, kroxigor (DROP. This unit is a dire waste of points. They are classy, cool looking, charismatic and funky. But crap.)

    ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    You Should now have points free, while your army's units are still providing the same function as before.

    WHAT NOW DO YOU GET?

    FIRST AND DEFINATELY
    --> 2 more temple guard minimum, so you have 16. 16 + 4 (base size of slann) =20. = ranked 5 x 4. -OR- [viable tactic, depends on your preferred playstyle] get 20 in total, and rank the unit 6 x 4. [Slann = 4 +20 TG = 24, 6x4]

    ++AND++

    {EITHER}
    - Skink Skirmishers (1-3 units more)
    - 3 Terradons
    - 5 chameleon skinks with no stalker

    {OR}
    - More unit/s of 18 Saurus with spears ranked 6 x 3 with full command.

    What will make you choose either/or?
    1 - Opponents army make-up [Blocks or Skirmishers or Fast Cavalry, Fear or Terror or Not? Shooting or Combat---What will you most likely be fighting against?].
    2 - Playstyle Choice
    3 - Model aesthetics choice

    Last but not least. If you HAVE TO free up some points, the best things to drop are, in order of droppability ;p

    1- The entire unit of cold one cavalry and the chracter in it. I get it if this is a no-go, so....
    2 - The burning blade on the scar-vet.
    3 - The enchanted shield on the scar-vet.
    3 - The dispel scroll on the priest.
    4 - Everything else is essential.

    Thanks for giving me somehting to do at work.
    Have fun.
    Good Luck.
    Hope it helps.
    For the Old Ones.

    TheSecondman, I think your being quite aggressive, and the points your making are mostly untrue
