Ok, something Ive realized while playing skaven, and then my advantage of being able to run circles around tombkings....maneouverability and speed can easily win games, if you use it right. Therefore, off I go! Oldblood on Carnosaur, burning blade, enchanted shield, glyph necklace and la-430 Skink priest on Eotg lvl 2, diadem and scroll-440 skink priest on foot-cloak of feathers, lvl 2 and scroll-150 Saurus scar vet on cold one, blade of might, shield of mirrored pool and LA-140 10 skink skirmishers-70 10 skink skirmishers-70 10 skink skirmishers-70 5 cold one riders banner + musician-205 5 cold one riders, banner + musician-205 4 Kroxigors-220 total-2k hmmmmm, Im not too sure that this would work very well though...thoughts?
Don't know if I like the skink with cloak. It seems like you're trying to go heavy CC in this list so the EotG makes sense for defense. I would take the other out. I'd also take the musicians out of the CoC units. Banners are good but they could be taken out if you need some points elsewhere. I like your choices... it just seems like you can't have fast and furious without Terradons! Perhaps get a unit of 4 of those, drop the kroxigors, and maybe get some skrox units for some nice combat res. I don't know how many points that is off the top of my head, but your list looks good so far. Just make sure you hit with everything in one area of the enemy line. Piecemeal with any of this stuff is destined for failure.
Thanks for the coments.... Oldblood on Carnosaur, burning blade, enchanted shield, glyph necklace and la-430 Skink priest on Eotg lvl 2, diadem and scroll-440 Saurus scar vet on cold one, blade of might, shield of mirrored pool and LA-140 10 skink skirmishers-70 10 skink skirmishers-70 20 Skinks and a kroxigor-155 10 skink skirmishers-70 5 cold one riders banner + musician-205 5 cold one riders, banner + musician-205 3 terradons-90 4 terradons-120 Terradons may be annoid until the skaven faq comes out due to reactivatable stormbanner... 10 pts left
God, I hate that I told you to take out the kroxigors. You really need the terradons but kroxigors are just classy. Too bad they're all special... I personally like 16 and 2 kroxigors better, especially if you already have the kroxigors. Perhaps taking out the musicians and 4 skinks could get you enough points? Does your buddy play a hell-pit abomination? If so, BBoC might be better than blade of might. If not, BoM is better.
He does, hence the burnin blade on oldblood. Also, if I remove 1 terradon I can get 16 skinks and 2 kroxigors in that unit
You have, for the most points and if you play it like I think you are planning on, a very mobile points denial list. It bugs me that you cannot shoot with CoC so they basically are going to be... I guess anvils in this case? They could tie up a unit and get some support from flanks from Skrox or Krox or Oldblood on Carnosaur. I love the shooty madness that are Skirmishing Skinks. "Hmm 3 wounds, toughness 100... wow, that's incredible, how do I beat that? And, Armor Save 6+!? Ok, 40 poisoned shots coming up!" *pew pew* "Ok, 6 wounds. Think you can get 3 or more sixes my friend? Statistically you'll get one, good luck!" *T100 monstrosity falls dead on the field of battle* Anyway, I've not played Skaven under the new book yet, so let us know the final list and how this list performs against them. If it does well I may invest in yet another skink box and some Kroxigor models. GW must love posts like yours.
Theyre pretty beastly cc wise now... I've played a normal list so far and my coc and vet (1500 pts so had bblade) murdered 29 monks, a priest...2 slave units and camme around to kill an abomb in 1 round of combat! I tied that game
If you want mobility then War drum is a must on the old blood. The cost on the scar vet is wrong tho, should be 160. Other than that it looks good.
Edit: New list! Oldblood on Carnosaur, burning blade, enchanted shield, glyph necklace and la-430 Skink priest on Eotg lvl 2, diadem and scroll-440 Saurus scar vet on cold one, blade of might, shield of mirrored pool and LA-160 10 skink skirmishers-70 10 skink skirmishers-70 16 Skinks and 2 kroxigors-190 10 skink skirmishers-70 5 cold one riders banner -195 5 cold one riders, banner -195 3 terradons-90 3 terradons-90 Unsure of what to drop for the drum....
