    Its in the enchanted items section, but the FAQ changed it to a regular mount.

    *Looks through book then scans the FAQ* Holy crap that's cool! I may just have to convert a Cold One into a Horned One some day :).

    n810 took the words right out of my mouth. How would this be calculated?

    The "only" part reads to me like it is just that, a mount, and nothing else.

    After playing around with the regular Slann of Dooooooom! list I gonna try a old-blood list but I'm not sure what to equip him with?

    Heres some builds I come up with:

    Glittering Scales
    The other tricksters shard
    Aura of Quetzl
    Burning blade of chotec

    Add a shield and I think he should be safe with -2 to hit and 2+ AS. He should negate most armor saves and he forces the enemy to re-roll ward saves.

    Armor of destiny
    DawnStone
    Great weapon

    2+ AS with re-rolls and 4+ ward provides a good defense and with 5 strength 7 attacks he can dish out some damage.

    Armor of destiny or Hide if the cold ones
    Aura of quetzl
    IronCurse Icon
    Great Weapon

    A little bit of a mix from the 2 other builds but with a nice little ward saves again those scary template weapons.

    So which build do you guys think is best?

    I'm thinking about:

    Oldblood w/ Armour of Destiny, Dawnstone, Venom of the Firefly Frog and Halberd - 238pts

    Venom could be removed, but it makes his attacks magical should I come across an Ethereal or something otherwise immune to mundane attacks. He's also got a slightly respectable initiative of 4 (the only I4 saurus bar Kroq'gar I believe) and doesn't have to wait for everybody else to attack like he would with a great weapon.

    If running with LoLight, then I may instead use:

    Oldblood w/ Armour of Destiny + Obsidian Blade - 245pts
    or
    Oldblood w/ Armour of Fortune + Blade of Revered Tzunki - 245pts

    With the extra initiative abilities of LoLight, I can lose some more protective gear in favour of more offensive stuff; perhaps throw a bane head into the mix.
