Hi All,
Just registered today but I have been lurking the forum for a couple of weeks now.
My local gaming group started a fantasy campaign about three weeks ago and decided to jump in with both feet. This is my first foray into the world of Warhammer Fantasy (8th ed) and the look and fluff of the Lizardmen sold me.
I have been reading the tactica section of the forum but am I correct that most of the articles are written with 7th edition in mind? I could be totally wrong, though, since I'm so unfamiliar with the Warhammer rules in general.
The campaign I mentioned above has been an escalation campaign and we have just hit the 1000pt level for our armies (it also has some house rules dictating army configuration too; no lord choices, core must be 50%+, special at max 25% and rare at max 15%). In the last game I played, my army suffered badly at the hands of some Bretonnians but I think that was largely due to my consistently poor dice rolls and the other player's ability to summon boxcars like a hobo magician. I'll post up my list/battle report in the battle reports forum because I am in need of critiquing and advice.
I'm looking to expand my forces in the near future too. So far I have a skink priest, the lizardmen battalion box, a box of saurus warriors, a box of skinks, a salamander hunting pack (min) and a stegadon that I am magnetizing to be able to use all three configurations.
Cheers!
