    Skink chiefs are fun to play, but a little squishy. I would recommend dropping them in favor of another scar-vet (on foot, maybe BSB).

    Really? That's a 109 point character with ld8 three s4 attacks toughness 3 and 4+ AS


    For comparison

    For 108 points you get a scar vet with LA, shield, dragonhelm and luckstone
    A 2+ AS that is rerollable once,
    A 2+ ward save against flaming attacks
    Four strength 5 attack
    Toughness 5
    Leadership 8

    So if you add him into the skink unit, all you lose is 2 inches of movement and one model worth of shooting, if you ranked them up rather than skirmish, that would be a nice wee combat unit with a heavy hitting scar vet


    Scar vet >>> skink chief
    The only time skink chiefs can be good if they are cheap, throwaway and spammed, if you start giving them 50 point magical armour, they will be outclassed by scar vets every time
