    You have everything you need for a reasonable 2000 point army. The combination of models is slightly more suited to the last edition of the rules.

    Look at the army list forum for a list that has most of your stuff in it and go from there.

    18 is a bit small for TG, I normally run 24. You can either just use 18 or use a few normal saurus to fill out the back rank as "new recruits" to the TG.

    Razordon is not very good, so in friendly games use as another salamander.

    You don't say if your skinks have blowpipe or javelin and shield. Blowpipes can only be used as skirmishers javelin skinks can be used as skirmishers, ranked cohorts or in mixed units with kroxigors.

    Cold One Riders, like most other cavalry aren't as good in this edition, mine now often get used as mounted saurus scar veterans. You have enough to be reasonably useful in the new edition.

    You have enough to put together a competitive list at 2000-2250 points. It would probably be best to play a few games to get used to the rules.

    Once you are happy to stay cold-blooded then units to think of expanding are:
    Temple Guard - another 6-10
    Kroxigor - another 2 to make a unit of 6, or more if you really like them
    Salamanders - another 1-3 as soon as possible, as they are most cost effective unit.
    Stegadons - 1-2, but only if you don't have too many empire or dwarf armies to fight, as cannons kill them quickly.
