    Hi, I am a newbie in the world of warhammer. I am enjoying playing lizard men a lot and I have found a love for skinks. I have got about 40+ skinks, the battalion and a old blood on cold one, but I don't know what else to get, I need it to be a strong choice for lizardmen but also fun to use? Any tips would be greatly appreciated.
    P.S I play against skaven quite often

    Salamanders are pretty fun against Skavens. And quite good overall against anything with 3 toughness.

    Else... More kuraqs. Temple gards and a slann. Or terradons.
    Try to balance your army between hitting power, magic, shooting, anvil and redirecting. Try to fulfill each of this equally and you shall rule the jungles.

    Alright, I need to ask now.

    What is a Kuraq? I've been a Lizardmen player for quite a while now, and have never a encountered the term until now.

    An important bonus question: WHY?

    It's not in the glossary either, and google turned up nothing.

    From recent posts in other topics, I assume he is referring to Scar veterans, possibly just Saurus Characters. I have no idea how you can possibly get "Kuraq" from that, though.

    Stegadons & Bastiladons are pretty fun! Cold One Cavalry are cool too -- dinosaurs riding dinosaurs? Awesome.

    Otherwise, Rippers! Like 6 of 'em. Pretty unpredictable, but rarely unproductive. Toad Rage is a cool rule.

    I think Kuraqs might have been an auto correct or text to speech mangling of Krox? They do synergize well with skinks in the fluff.

    Silver faith was right with scar vet.

    I'm sorry i'm using the French name of scar veterans. http://www.games-workshop.com/fr-FR/Kuraq-kaq-Saurus
    I had.... Wrongfuly I suppose, assumed that they would have the same name in the english version.

    I shall from now on refer to them as scar veterans x).
