    The list is strong in magic and shooting but seems quite light on the combat side with only one large block of infantry. Without the lore of life or light to buff your saurus, the unit could easily get crushed by another horde of decent infantry while cheap blocks hold up your steggies. I am also not a big fan of the bolt thrower steggies as the ancients are much better in combat, shooting and armour save. Lastly, while 2 slaan are nice, it will likely be wasted in a number of magic phases due to insufficient dice so you might be better off going with a scroll caddy skink (cube of darkness) and then give your slaan the diadem to help improve magic defence if needed.

    What, two slann and not one of them has cupped hands! Surely you jest!

    Seriously though, get cupped hands. Also, like stonecutter said, see if you can get another block of infantry. Either combine your rank and file skinks to include 2-3 kroxigor (i.e. 24 skinks x 3 krox, FC) or drop them entirely for another block of saurus. Since it looks like you are going shooting and magic heavy, I would suggest a skrox unit.

    You probably have one too many scar veterans, drop one to afford the kroxigor in a skrox unit.
