    If I am correct, a character mount counts towards it's points when determining how many points you can have on heroes and lords, so it would be illegal.

    For the idea of the army itself, i think it depends on what army your versing. For instance, i htink it would do very well against low armour - high toughness teams like ogers, but i know from experience that skinks cannot do anything to high armour teams, especially fast moving ones like brettonians.

    That is illegal. That makes the chief cost 380 points. To be exact, that is 130 points over legal. 1750 points is the lowest game you could take the stegadon. I haven't used one since 8th edition started. IMO they are just a giant moving target. I really miss my EOTG though.
