First off I would like to say that I am relatively new to lizarden and I have about 4 games under my belt so I would like it if you could help me build a list. Assuming that this list is not playable.
well, that's hard to judge really since the strength of a list depends a lot on the general behind it and the armies you will be playing.
assuming you'll be playing against mostly competitive lists from mostly competitive armies, i'd format your core around 1 reasonably sized block of saurus (20-30) and filling up the rest with skirmishers with javs/shields.
after that its really up to you. bastiladons are awesome, terradons, temple guard, chameleon skinks are all effective special choices. with rare you are basically choosing between steg/sally or some mixture of both.
at the end of the day a list you like and that fits your play style will often be a much more enjoyable experience than one you do not, even if its technically a "better" list.
for example, skinks can be quite finicky. they are an amazing unit, but require quite a bit of finesse to be as annoying with them as absolutely possible. you set up your redirectors wrong and instead of slowing down the enemies big block you gave them a beautiful overrun into your flank, or fleeing the rest of your units off the board.
i think the best advice would be to go with the list you have currently, and make another list with less saurus/more skinks and see how you feel after the first game.
use this tournament to understand and fine tune your list, as with only 4 games experience its doubtful you'll be crushing the top tables
but than again, you never know!
one last little tidbit, is that at 1500 points every army is going to have less tools. something like a survivable cowboy scar vet with 1 up rerollable save is going to be quite tough to get rid of. elite units will be smaller and heroes/lords will have less items making the high toughness high armor save 150 point hero nearly impossible to kill. if your curious about scarvet builds there are plenty of threads floating around this forum currently that talk in depth about how the pros and cons of different builds.
edit: just wanted to say that by no means should my word be taken as some golden standard. I've never been to a tournament myself, have only played casually for many years and have been active with the discussion for some time.
as my advice has little to back it up (to first place finishes, etc etc) i'd of course take it with a grain of salt
