    I have tried this list against OnG twice and have found it to have great versatility and decent punch.
    There are definite experimental units like the Lazerdon and the CoC and the skink chief. Thoughts on the chief thus far..great warmachine hunter and chaff clearer. With magic weapon could be ethereal hunter too. Egg makes him great as support in other combats or solo. Laser don draws dispel and adds a pip of ini to TG and CoC. Cav is cowboy delivery system and they have actually been good in CC

    The signature slann is a toolbox for early game and late game with awesome versatility.

    I am attempting a list that is balanced yet will be strong for competitve environment.
    Any ideas to tweak would be great

    Thanks...

    Seems like I missed the memo on the Skavenpelt Banner. Lots of lists running with this thing lately. How do you find it?

    I agree, your list looks very versatile. I'd like to see some Chameleons, but maybe I'm polarized from seeing things like Cannons and HPA's all the time.

    Skavenpelt banner - Frenzy - not sure if that's really all that useful.

    I try to keep my temple guard unit out off combat where possible....

    I have found a decent sized unit of TG witu Frenzy to really dish out the pain. They stand toe to toe with savage orcs. My regular OnG opponent has developed a healthy respect for the TG :D They were matched up against big goblin blocks and big units (30) of savage orcs with 3 to 4 characters in and every time thus far have won those fights.

    Only thing I am more careful with is redirectors because off frenzy I could overrun I to bad position. Though it has not bothered me because between my skink skirmishers, chief on ripper and magic I clear chaff very effectively. Ofc on Ld 9 coldblooded I always restrained from frenzy baiting if I want to. Bottom line...I find they rock and the extra attacks really benefit PF

    Had another game against them last night and the OnG player did try some other things no dual manglers or fanatics. Orc general on wyvern, rock lobba, 2 spear chukkas, 30 odd savages. 40 nightgoblin another brick of 30 goblins, 3 units of wolfriders etc lots of gobbo shamans (4).

    Ended with victory for LM by 1000 VP. CoC impressed once again as did chief with egg
