Engine of the Gods in a 1k list is interesting, I think its alot of points devoted to that one unit. I'm not crazy fond of eggs all in one basket type deals, but its an idea. If your going to have an EoTG and use it offensively you must, MUST, take Wardrums of Xahutec. That way you can't be marchblocked, you can still cast spells and use the burning alignment, more importantly, you wont get charged as easily and if your smart you'll run circles around your enemy.

I'm not crazy about the skink chief, I've never really enjoyed the idea of a lone skink chief unless the point value is 200-500pts. Mostly because he has no decent armor or anything, but also you have no other terradons to go with him, he is totally alone. That worries me...

Also I don't see the two razordons as much help, if your going to field em I'd field 3 in one unit, you have to be careful with it, but it actually has enough stand and shoot to really hurt something charging it. I'd perfer one Salamander, and use the other points elsewhere.

The list is on its way though...

yes i also was considering the war drums but then i have no more scroll

unless i drop the warchief for a scroll cady priest

and i'm not sutch a big fan of the salamanders so i'll stay with the 2 razordons
but thx for comments and fixes

Scroll caddy is a good idea, cause the Engine of the Gods really needs the wardrums, and if you can fit it Plaque of Tepok is nice on an engine priest.

ah yes that sounds very good for him ty for these great advices

Ok changed i made

Changed the equiptment on my EOTG priest to wardrums and plaque of tepok

Swaped my skink chief on terradon to a skink priest scroll cadie (playing alot of DE)

changed my 2 razordons to salamanders

changed the champion for a standard bearer in the saurus unit (+1 attack for +1 CR)

Enlarged my skink units to 12 a piece because i had points left

 

[SlannOfItza]

So far so good, I only have one other thing to say, and thats to drop one salamander ( you only need one per pack, and you can't take 2 packs ) and use the 75 points to buy 6 more saurus with spears, this will bring the saurus block up to 18, which you can rank 6x3 for alot more hitting power then 12. You'll have 3 points leftover, but your list should be pretty solid.

Just make sure to use skinks well to harass and re-direct so saurus block stays safe till it can charge. And run the salamander on a flank, avoiding charges, breath venom/fire on enemy blocks and give him multiple things to deal with. And support your saurus blocks with your EoTG the burning alignment will strip rank bonus before combat, and it can charge into a flank if you need the extra hitting power (saurus are usually enough tho).

Good Luck...

Ok I'll try this list with 1 Salamander and instead of full unit of saurus warriors

i'll add in a champion for the warriors and a unit of 5 skink chameleons
