    I came up with an idea today when I looked at the Skavenpelt Banner. It says "Skinks only" but I think that means that only a Skink Chief upgraded to BSB can have it. This doesn't mean that Saurus blocks can't benefit from it's effects.

    So I can have him at the side of a big horde of Saurus Warriors.

    The reason of putting him in a horde is because he doesn't have the same base size and is therefore on the side of the horde. He needs to be on the side because he dies instantly when something get to attack him. Saurus hordes have a very wide frontage and therefore he would probably only be targeted in combat if the unit is Double-charged or if meeting another large horde.

    I think that giving Frenzy to a horde of Saurus could be very dangerous and the unit would definately kill a lot of stuff.

    If you support the unit with Light Magic it would be able to beat first too, so it could kill the opponent before he gets an opportunity to attack you.

    Thoughts?

    Yep

    You might also try him in a skink/kroxogor unit.
