Bit of a different tournament. In this one we get any special character for half price so I can maximize by taking Kroq gar or take what I think works best with tett'eko. Also we can take storm of magic models in rare. Hence the frostie. The one thing I'm missing is I can't fit salamanders to deal with elite infantry. Saurus Oldblood: Dawnstone; Glittering Scales; Ironcurse Icon; Cold One; Great Weapon. Saurus Scar-Veteran: Luckstone; The Egg of Quango; Dragonhelm; Cold One; Great Weapon; Light armour; Battle Standard. Tett'eko 27 Saurus Warriors: Musician; Standard Bearer. 10 Skink Skirmishers 10 Skink Skirmishers: Lustrian javelin; Shield. 10 Skink Skirmishers: Lustrian javelin; Shield. Stegadon 5 Cold One Riders: Standard Bearer. 3 Terradon Riders Ancient Stegadon: Sharpened Horns. Frostheart Phoenix 2,000 points
And here's the Kroq'gar list Kroq'gar Tetto'eko Saurus Scar-Veteran: The Egg of Quango; Enchanted Shield; Sword Of Striking; Light armour; Battle Standard. 27 Saurus Warriors: Musician; Standard Bearer. 10 Skink Skirmishers 10 Skink Skirmishers 10 Skink Cohort Bastiladon: Solar Engine; 3 Skink Crew. Stegadon: Sharpened Horns. 2 Salamander Hunting Pack Frostheart Phoenix 1 Great Eagle 1 Great Eagle
Should revise only the first special char is half price. My first list was Kroq'gar tett'eko and gorrok. It was alright but it screamed for a bsb.
Half Price? Lord Mazdamundi! Normally 780 points, now a steal at 390. Get Gor Rok too; he's a good buy at full price, at half price, still useful. I'd even take Oxyotyl; at 60 points he's worth it. -Matt
I know I know, I should take lord maz but I swear, even at half points I don't think hes worth it. My area, if they can take a cannon they will have a cannon and that no LOS slann is just waiting to be sniped off removing my mage my bsb and my general.
Honestly? from what youve said about cannons Kroq-gar probably isnt the best bet either. Tetto'Eko in my meta is considered a steal at 185 points, 93 points for him? For cheaper than a level 2 priest you get: Loremaster, D3 Vanguard, reroll comets, reroll 1's to cast, and a 5+ ward. Holy. Crap. My recommendation: Light Slann with Harmonic + Staff Tetto'Eko Add either a Scroll Caddy or Becalming Another fun toy is priest with forbiddon rod. Several Blocks of Saurus/Temple Guard. Salamanders to soften large blocks Not sure what monsters are available in SoM but Frost is a good choice, if that Ogre ASL thing is in there Id love that on I1 Lizards. Anyway, Light and Heavens are not only fantastic for Lizardmen, but extremely synergetic with each other. Phas, Iceshard, Harmonic, Speed, and Timewarp have amazing potential, and most can be bubbled. Get any 2 off and Saurus become monsters in combat. Get 3 off and Suddenly youll have 3A Saurus hitting on 3's, rerolling misses, and your enemy needing 6's to hit you back. By the way, all that Light magic has low casting values, and you reroll 1's when casting. Guaranteed 2'dicing Speed of Light? Yes Please! Tetto's vanguard is perfect for Salamanders, as it allows them to shoot turn 1. Take 2 units, and prioritize them as vanguard targets, shoot everything they can, then use them as chaff while skinks and such whittle things down even further and you are blasting your heavens magic. When they finally get to your army (Likely turn 4) pop all your buffs and kill the half an army left on the table.
Not bad idea at all, hadn't considered a slann with Tett'eko. But I think i've got my list. Going for monster saturation Basti (Laser) Steg (Sharpened Horns) Frost Phoenix Kroq'gar Block of SW with BSB Scarvet with Egg Tett'eko 2 Salamanders 3 units Skink Skirmishers (one for bunker)
Id consider changing one skirmisher unit to a cohort so Tetto can go in the second rank. Id also try and get a warmachine hunter in there, cannons are not your friend. Other than that I like it, nothing funnier than Harmonic convergence on an Ancient or Bastilodon, 2+ armor, 2+ to wound, reroll 1's
kroq gar is a steal at half price. couldn't take a slann, but still. /shrug. really can't go wrong. seems like you'd want to go pricey to maximize the points you save but dunno.
Your right I need something anti warmachines. I have two great eagles. But I could ditch for terradons or a chiefdon
