    Hey guys,

    So I'm still a pretty new player (I only played about 10 lowish point games) but I got pretty boosted by a veteran at my local gaming store who told me I needed to try to attend a tournament sometimes after I had beaten one of our top Lizardmen players. So now I need to expand my army and I was thinking of this list as my target:


    Chupayotl’s Turtle Tribe
    -2400 points-

    Lords:
    Slann mage-priest (lore of shadow): (545)
    - Focus of mystery
    - Becalming cogitation
    - Focused rumination
    - Higher state of consciousness
    - Cupped hands of the old ones
    - Crown of command
    - Battle standard bearer
    - Standard of discipline

    Heroes:
    Skink priest: (105)
    - Cube of darkness
    Skink priest: (90)
    - Dispel scroll
    Skink priest: (90)
    - Blood statuette of spite

    Core:
    30 skink: (337)
    - Full command
    - 3 Kroxigor
    30 skink: (337)
    - Full command
    - 3 Kroxigor

    10 skink skirmishers: (70)
    - blowpipe
    10 skink skirmishers: (70)
    - blowpipe
    10 skink skirmishers: (70)
    - blowpipe

    Special:
    6 chameleon skinks (72)
    6 chameleon skinks (72)
    6 chameleon skinks (72)

    Rare:
    2 Salamander hunting pack: (155)
    - extra skink handler
    2 Salamander hunting pack: (155)
    - extra skink handler

    Razordon hunting pack: (80)
    - extra skink handler
    Razordon hunting pack: (80)
    - extra skink handler

    Total: 2400 points

    This list follows my previous list: A fast skink army with a lot of focus on mobility, shooting and magic. One combo I found out is to use the blood statuette on a character in a withered unit, the squishy classes won't like a -2 T making their hero T1, which actually gives the statuette a real opportunity to cause wounds. I like to hear from you what you think about the army!

    How about a Dawnstone 1+ AS Scar Vet for flinging around with Steed of Shadows? Or are you set on Skinks only? I assume you plan on charging people with your Slann too.

    Blood Statuette combo is cool, thanks for sharing.

    A scar-vet would be really cool to use with steed of shadows and smoke and mirrors, but I'm set on skinks.

    I was indeed planning to charge my slann into combat, mostly because he is safe in there from most magic and ugly dwarves enhanced warmachines.

    Thanks, I think it is a rather usefull strategy, for 25 points you get a rather good chance of killing a character, so use it wisely comrats =D
