Not long left to a tourny I'm going to and this is what my army has changed into, Slann Mage-Priest BSB - Discipline Standard Becalming Focused Rumin Focus of Mystery (Lore Of Light) Cupped Scar Vet Dragonhelm Carnosaur pendant Other tricksters shard Light arm Halberd Shield 20 Saurus Full com 19 Saurus full com (Scar vet in here) 20 TG Full com Razor Standard (-3 to armour save is rather nasty) Ironcurse Icon 2x2 Salamanders 9 C-Skinks 8 C-Skinks 2000pts exactly any questions, points, statments, comments?

Very solid looking list. I really think you've got all bases covered. Let us know how it goes at the tournament.
I like the list very similar to mine, You are light on the amount of blowpipes in your army, your not very avoidance based. I would perhaps look at changing the 19 Saurus into Skink Skirmishers with Blowpipes and putting the scar vet on cold one. This would give your army a needed (in my opinion) injection of speed for those heavy shooting and avoidance armys. Otherwise it is a realatively slow list.
Also I would mention that you are below 25% minimum for your core currently on 489. To rectify this easily you could drop a single salamander for a unit of skink skirmishers
Haha epic fail by me! and good spot I did have 2 x 20 saurus Adressing points raisen (spelling? ) @ SeBm - Will do Ill try and make an ad-hoc report as I go along :\ @ mixer86 - Oh yep! Nom nom nom indeed! Altough I am considering Banner of Flamey-ness. @ Hivor - I did have 2 x 10 units of S-Skinks but went for the C-Skinks after realising how much damage they can do. And I may drop my 2 units of C-Skinks down so I can get a single unit of S-Skinks. Oh and I abhor having mixed units (OCD) it looks messy + cannon balls will rape him. Cheers for the input guys I'll add a modified one after dinner Lloyd
Cannons do hurt but charmed shield for 5 points for an extra 2 points on a normal shield you get the shield and ignores first hit on a 2+ and if they don't know your magic item set up they are likely to use a cannon or something. He often will get his points back even if he gets shot to pieces atleast he isnt shooting the rest of the army if your taking light you always have phas proteciton too =)
i would get a few dispel scrolls just so u can stop critical spells was just reading about a guy losing a 20 man squaad of TG and a slann in one spell the pain
you can only have 1 dispell scrol in the whole army in 8th. Btw Nice list. just like Hiv0r, MORE S-SKINKS XD, thoese little guys saved me alot´s of time. they can really put some wounds out. even on high T guys. once i tryed 10 S-skinks vs. Orc giant. the giant fell without killing one of the skinks ;P
For lizardmen you can technically take 2 if you have 2 wizards, 1 takes a dispell scroll and the other take cube of darkness which effectively is a dispell scroll. Yours Aye Mixer
