Hey I am new to the Warhammer, and the lizardmen in particular. I love the idea of Slann (I mean magic space frogs… come on!), but not so much the temple guard deathstar. So what do you guys think of this 2250pt list: 1x Slann Mage Priest (Life) - General - Battle Standard Bearer - The Focused Rumination - Focus of Mystery - Higher State of Consicousness - Feedback Scroll - Banehead - Standard of Discipline 24x Saurus Warriors - Musician - Standard Bearer 24x Saurus Warriors - Musician - Standard Bearer 10x Skink Skirmishers - Javelin & Shields 10x Skink Skirmishers - Javelin & Shields 10x Skink Skirmishers 6x Chameleon Skinks 6x Chameleon Skinks 6x Chameleon Skinks 5x Terradon Riders 1x Ancient Stegadon 1x Ancient Stegadon The idea is the have the two stegs in the center, flanked by the saurus warriors, while everything else runs around being annoying. The Slann will sit behind in the blowpipe skinks, casting magic and basically making the stegadons unbreakable. I’m not sure if the Saurus blocks are too small, and whether terradons are worth it. I also have 60pts left that I don’t know what to spend on. Thoughts?
Seems like a really solid list, though for you tactics I would change it a little. Saurus are really damn slow! Its better to have the faster stegs on the flanks, so once you get into combat with the saurus, you can make a flanking charge with the stegadons. If you have your saurus way out, you may well be too slow to get into combats that you can win! Other than that, sweet list!
Thanks The reason I was using the Stegadons as anvils was that they are pratically unbreakable, but I think your idea would work better. If I am using the Saurus Blocks as anvils, I think they should be bigger (about 30?). What should I drop? some skirmishers, the terradons? Cheers
I would consider dropping the terradons, or at least dropping a couple of them. All those Chameleons you have in there do what most people use Terradons for anyways. WM Hunting
Fair enough, if I completely drop the terradons, I can buff both Saurus blocks to 30 and still have 80 points left. Is this worth it? What should I spend the rest of the points on? More Skirmishers?
