    With 8th Edition starting to seep in properly now, I've turned back to the Lizards after a 40k respite, and 8th editionified my Army for games nights. It goes a little like this:

    Slann Mage Priest "Aescul'Pax"
    Focus of Mystery, Focused Rumination
    Dispel Scroll

    14 Temple Guard
    Standard, Champion

    40:)D) Saurus Spearmen
    Full Command

    24 Skink Cohorts with 3 Kroxigor
    Standard

    Saurus Scar Veteran "Mon'Hekaii, the Watcher"
    Battle Standard Bearer
    Cold One, Light Armour, Shield
    Sword of Quarrel

    15 Skink Skirmishers

    15 Skink Skirmishers

    4 Terradons

    3 Kroxigor
    Ancient

    2 Salamanders

    Reasoning:

    Firstly, having fielded 30 Saurus Spears at 2,000 pts in 7th edition, the look of terror on an opponents face when you rack them up is classic. So I want to embelish this.

    Secondly, the Scar Vet BSb on Cold One is simply too nice a conversion to not use (I'll endevour to post a pic)

    Thirdly, I seriously dislike the look and idea of Cold One Cavalry- Lizards on Lizards... really??!

    and Fourthly, although dinosaurs were cool when I was 12, I don't really like them anymore.

    Tactic:

    Hard infantry core that can take on anything, with Skinks protecting the flanks of the Cohort, Temple Guard and Saurus. Terradons are pests, and a threat to War Machines. Slann for some serious magical carnage/ protection. 'Manders are better than ever now, and although the 3 Kroxigor may seem a little pointless, they (used to) bust some serious flanks.

    Any thoughts/ opinions most welcomed.
