    You can only have 3 groups of sallies,
    So youl have to run 1 group of 2
    You REALY lack bodies,
    Only two blocks in 2k,
    Still,
    You have a pair of anvils and a semi decent hammer,
    I'd be tempted to drop the skink chief. He's not going to do anything against skaven,

    If your opponent fields more than a few jezails, youl be packing up early.

    I could drop the cold ones and take saurus, but I wanted the cold ones for taking out his war mashines.
    Sjowld I change the chief for a mage?

    I'd take chameleon skinks or terries to kill war machines,
    Cor will kill anything he has,short of a HPA or a doom wheel if they make it into combat.
    But, it will take them forever as he will ALWAYS be steadfast,

    Actually, you can only have 2 duplicates in Rare, 3 duplicates in Special. So 2x2 for the sallies.

    I'm not sure how you got a horned one on your cold one cav champ, as he cannot take magic items. More importantly, a horned one, if you were to take it on a character, is worthless when he joins a unit. Always move at the speed of the slowest model, I3 vs 2 is not great for one attack, and stupidity is almost not an issue with ld8 cold booded, with an 89% chance of passing it w/o the bsb around, 98.8% with it.

    That said, I think 10 CO is way overkill. Those pts would be better spent on more bodies. Run 5 CO and get 16 more saurus. Much more effective IMO.

    On that note, the plaque of dominion is not great IMO. It's range is really low, and most wizards have a decent LD anyways. I think the pts are better spent somewhere else.

    As for the slann-lore of death is good, but the best spell-purple sun, is not good to use on a slann that will run with TG. You place the template on his base before moving it out, so you are probably going to kill 2-3 TG every time you cast it. Light or Life are probably better. As for the disciplines, I hope you are taking Mystery, Rumination, and Becalming Cogitation?

    I don't think that chief is gonna do much for you. For the same pts you can get 5 chameleons, which are harder to kill, and pump out more shots sooner.
