    Hey guys,

    Just purchased an army, made up a list with the models it is coming with. Won't be able to change it much but I wanted some feedback on how you think it'll perform. Thanks.

    Lords

    Oldblood
    GW, CO, AoD, Egg of Quango and luckstone

    Heroes

    Skink Priest
    Lvl 2, Dispel Scroll

    Skink Priest
    Lvl 2, Cube of Darkness *both going beasts for multiple wyssans. with the idea that I'll be able to get off 1 a turn and the saurus will be S5/T5 almost all the time.*

    Scar Vet
    LA, GW, CO, Dragonhelm and Dawnstone *both CO characters will go in saurus unit for higher str attacks, I know they can be killed by cannons/stone throwers but lots of other targets for those plus hopefully the skinks can deal with those quickly*

    Core
    10 Skink skirmishers
    javelin/shields

    10 Skink skirmishers
    javelin/shields *redirectors/bunkers for the priests*

    42 Saurus Warriors
    FC *most likely going horde but depending on what is lined up against me*

    Special
    Bastiladon with laser *near saurus for initiative buff*

    7 Chameleon skinks

    7 Chameleon skinks

    6 Chameleon skinks *bring down the cannons quick*

    Stegadon with sharpened horns

    Stegadon with sharpened horns

    Rare

    Ancient Stegadon with engine of the gods *near the other stegs to pass 6+ ward and then selecting beasts to make wyssans easier to get off*

    Well what do you think? Only extra models I will have is 6 cold one cav 4 more skinks and 6 more saurus.

    Thanks for reading.

    I really like the list.can do lots!! Especially the stacking of wysans. Means your saurus can confidently take down anything. If your allowing characters tho... could be worth dropping some cam skinks to get gorok in the front of the unit... immune to psych and stubborn. Yeah!!! And if you roll savage beast.... *drooooools

    That does have some nice potential with savage beasts. 7 attacks at str 8 rerolling to hit and PF on 5-6. That's a lot of CR generated just from him alone. I'll look into getting that model sounds like fun.

    Thought of a variation of the army just based around my opponents being ok with the regular stegs which are modelled with giant bows being used as ancients. Don't think I'd be shooting the giant blowpipes much anyway.

    Lords

    GW, CO, AoD, Dawnstone, OTS

    Heroes
    Skink Priest
    Lvl 2, Dispel Scroll

    Skink Chief
    BSB, Spear, LA, Charmed shield, Opal Amulet, Egg of Quango mounted on ancient steg with sharpened horns

    Core

    43 Saurus
    FC

    11 skink skirmishers

    10 skink skirmishers

    Special

    Bastiladon

    7 cham skinks

    7 cham skinks

    6 cham skinks

    Rare

    Ancient steg with sharpened horns and EotG

    Ancient steg with sharpened horns

    What do you think? stick with the original or give this one a go? Going to have my first game within the next couple weeks.
