    12 skinks skirmishers
    12 Sauras warriors
    12 Temp Guard
    8 Cold one Calvary
    3 Jungle swarms

    Skink Priest with tome.

    i dont have my Chameleon's put together
    but today during a quick 550 point game it was over in turn 4

    He uses 3 Pink Horrors
    12 bloodletters of Khorne
    12 Daemonettes of Slaanesh
    1 skull takers of Khorne

    we played Warbands so we can split up a little bit

    At this points level the options for a daemons army are very limited. They need 2 core choices (which are all infantry), so have 2x10 infantry units at the minimum. Add in the General and there's very little room left for cool special choices. Be very aware of that general to be tough though!

    So, 14 Plaguebearers with Nurgle Herald. Very tough infantry with very tough/strong General.
    10 bloodletters of khorne. 2nd Core choice, just very solid.
    Screamers of Tzeentch, to get some mobility in. Maybe flesh hounds, for the allround solidness of them.

    Expect: 2 infantry units with a tough general. A special choice which is way faster than their infantry. The special and the General are the things to watch out for.

    So, now onto your list :)

    I'd swap the Temple guard for Saurus Warriors. TG are only (really) good when playing a slann. for 12 TG you could buy 16 Saurus Warriors with spears! Although 15 with musician is a better alrounder (and makes up for a nice block which can stand up to the enemy infantry)
    Drop the jungle swarms alltogether...sorry to say it but swarms just don't make the cut. Easy to kill and crumble...and you're paying loads of points for them. I can advise 2 skink skirmishing units instead of these fellas.
    Or 1 more skirmishing unit and 3 Terradons (drop some SCOR for them)
    Use the SCOR as your hammer, charge them in (preferably flank) and grind with the Saurus Warriors. (or TG if you decide to keep them). This combination will bring down many a daemon unit!

    you need fast stuff teridons to beat dark elfs or something with good armour e.g temple guard cos there troops and special have no decent armour or strenth krokigor will batter them in combat
