TOW Saurus Hero + 2 skinks priest 2 engine of gods

[Kalisto]

Guys what do you think about this list?
I play a cowboy and 2 skinks priest with 2 engine of goods. One skink on Stegadon focusing on battle magic melee and eventually moonson.
The other one can instead choose ranged spells from elementalism.

An extra hero on terradon anti war machine with another magic missile.

A good saurus center with magic resistance 1 (that cannot be removed due I need 501 points for core)

So totally I will have at least 5 magic misses (eventually 6 if I am lucky rolling a 1 with the caster with battle magic), half with +3 casting the other with +2. It would be interesting to try this list against a hero magic 4. But I guess he will not have enough mobility to dispel everything!

Any suggestion/ improvement? Especially on magic items or alternative on kroxigors

Adding a ps: this would be an alternative to the Slann since he it’s quite costly and I am not sure it’s worth it.

 

[discomute]

Interesting. I understand the argument against Slann, especially as our best units appear to be characters on carnosaurs and stegadons, and once you add the slann it's difficult to get "two more"

But I would have thought the main reason to take level 2 skinks is to get access to dispels. I don't know if two of them is worthwhile. Will be interesting.

is this 2k right? you can only have 2 max between oldblood and/or priest

if you want to keep twin priests, you have to change an OB for a Vet. Maybe with GW, shield, Talisman and horned (154 points).

Didn’t thought about that! Damn
Is a bit big difference between the two sincerely. We’ll have to thank about it, but yes should play him as you wrote.

 

[discomute]

Could feasibly drop a priest for a troglodon and oracle?

 

[Kalisto]

It makes no sense. The strong is to cast with two caster at +3. And both caster can dispel with +2.
Troglodon doesn’t get such bonuses. And you need two stegadons for the extra +1

I did another versione with saurus scar on carnosaur, removed the cube of darkness for a dispel scroll and removed chameleons but did one unit skinks as scout.
