    Hey guys,

    Be harsh as it's my first lizardman list and I have only had the book for around 2 hours. But through careful weeks of study I have stuck to what I believe if fairly tradtional then added flavour where I felt was appropriate (cube of darkness, etc)

    Lords:

    Slann Mage Priest – The Focused Rumination, Focus of Mystery, Lore of Light, Cupped Balls of the Old Ones, Ironcurse Icon, BSB -

    Heros:

    Skink Priest – Cube of Darkness, Lore of Heaven’s –

    Core:

    25 Saurus Warriors – Full Command, Hand weapon + Shields –
    20 Saurus Warriors – Full Command, Hand weapon + Shields –
    Skrox – 16 Skinks – Full Command, 2 Kroxigors – (Skink Priest)
    10 Skink Skirmishers –
    10 Skink Skirmishers -

    Special:

    16 Temple Guard – Full Command, Banner of Discpline –
    6 Chameleon Skinks –
    6 Chameleon Skinks -

    Rare:

    Salamander Hunting Pack, Extra handler –
    Salamander Hunting Pack, Extra handler –

    2000


    My other major train of though is a lore of life slann with forbidden rod, but as my current bretonnian army runs a level 4 lore of life I wouldn't mind a stray off the path.

    Do NOT post individual points costs for units/items!

    Why ironcurse icon on your slann? He already has a 4+ ward. Adding a 6+ ward on top wont do anything.
    Unless its for the guard I guess.

    If you have 5 pts left what else are you going to spend it on?

    Well if the only criticism is a 5 point item that is good news for my first list =).

    In regards to that item it is designed to give the temple guard the 6+ against war machines as I have heard they are be a problem on the forums and gunline's arn't exactly uncommon.

    If that 6+ save goes through on any one of my temple guard it has already practically made 3 times its points back and in other army lists i've found it a very worthwhile item.

    Which list do you guys find best?

    Hi Hiv0r,

    I like both lists but my vote goes to the first one. The reason being that a single Stegadon is going to be a magnet for cannons and the like. I've found that if you're going to take a Stegadon that you're best taking two.

    Given that you're taking Lore of Light (my person favorite) you'll find that your Saurus Warriors become...well.... frankly awesome! :D Once you get to 2400 I'd find room for an extra Steg and some other toys. But at 2000, I'd stick with the 2 blocks of Saurus.

    As for 5pt items... I absolutely agree with the Ironcure Icon. The only thing better we have against shooting is the Engine of the Gods with it's 5+ Ward thing.

    Welcome to the forum and the land of the lizzies :D
