If you've read the title you know why I've made this thread. Basically I've been collecting bits and pieces of a lizardman army for about six months now, buying boxes here and there and yet even with all the boxes and some made up models around me I couldn't put brush to model or model to table and field my soliders without having a good army list. Because my main experience with Warhammer up until now has been 40k, this new game I am still trying to learn has a whole lot of things that I still need to think about when it comes to making an army. Where before with my old army I just try and throw as many Grey Knights as I could on the board, now I have to worry about anvil units and warmachine hunters and flankers and etc etc. There is alot more to keep in mind about roles and numbers and ranks of which I am having a hard time trying to balance while still trying to achieve an even 2000 point army list from which I can play and better learn the game, so thankfully I discovered this site and it has been a great place for me to learn and ask for help, which I am now. tl;dr, help me create an effective 2000 points list! Bonus points if I don't need to buy any more units. As I am Australian the price for models is stupid (Seriously, the Trogladon kit was $100 alone!) What I currently own: "Great Sliz'zix" Slann Mage-Priest (Can be seen here http://www.flickr.com/photos/bluetablepainting/sets/72157633958092232/ ) Saurus Oldblood/Scar-vet Saurus Oldblood/Scar-vet on Caurnosaur Skink Priest One Bastilodon with Solar Engine One half assembled stegadon (Still deciding how to build him so the howdah is currently unassembled) 24x skinks with blowpipes 40x Saurus with hand weapon shield 20x Temple Guard 16x Cold one (Unassembled while I decide what weapon) What I think I need to buy: Possibly Salamanders Battle standard, I NEED one right?
As the new book has only just come out, ppl are trying to find out what works best for them... But to me it seems exept for maybe the razordons there are no wrong choises. all you choises should be based on your preferred playstyle! And your methagame. I find for example that there are dozens of nice synergy's in the new army and having tryed the swarm/snakedon and Saurus warriors + harmonic convergence is a monsterly painful combo inflicting on average 10-13 wounds even on more elite infantery.. I also like the dino mash since my metha isn't cannon heavy!
