Total: 1970 / 2000
Extra Command Points: 2
Allies: 0 / 400
Wounds: 97

Let the opponent start (unless you can make a hard hit from the start).

T1: Spells against hordes -
Put the Blod Toads and get dawn the first 6 Ripperdactyls against large units, or isolate units, always thinking about the objectifs.
Slann: 10 + D3 summon points (If I have 12: 2 razzordons, If I have less than 10 skinks)
Move the skinks on targets or put them as a shield for Rippers
Chamaleon Skinks support Ripper Strikes

T2: Same thing: Get dawn the 2nd Rippers in another important point and put pressure on the map.
Slann: 13 + D3 (2 razzordons or skinks or ripper)

Try to save the Rippers after 1st strikes and get the early objectifs.
...

What Artefacts should i use?
Its ok for 10 Chamaleon skink? or put razzordons?

Thx

Double Shadowstrike is a great list. I use to run a similiar list with some Razordons in the GHB2018.

It might be worth bringing a Regular Skink Priest in the second battalion in order to have access to prayers.

I like the Realm of Ulgu when I have 3 or more artifacts to choose from. Miasmic Blade, Betrayer's Crown, Talisman of the Watch, & Spell Mirror are always nice for Support Heroes. Aqshy is also good for Ignax's Scales and Rubyring. Or Ghurr for Gryph-feather Charm.

Thx for answear I gonna use Ulgu!

skink priest? The prayer is in 4+. It seems to be difficult and to rerool saves of skinks? Its not more viable to use another Starpriest with the new spell lore? Astrolith and maybe the constellation can ensure the spells (stellar and Starlight)

The prayer is mostly useful for the Surviving Ripperdactyls. Having a 5+ ignore -1 rend save is actually pretty durable. Also, Chameleon Skinks with a 3+ rerolling is pretty hard to break. Between the Slann and a Skink Starpriest I would assume you won't have much need for other spells.

With Double Shadowstrike it can be worth while to start with one of the units of Rippers on the table so you can priest buff and Summon Starlight the one unit. With Stealthy Advance it should still reach combat. This is only worth doing if you are hoping to tie down units and are less worried about getting the +1 to wound.
