[ironchestnut]

Hear I have a 1000point army of lizerdmen was wondering whether to put in some kroxigor and turn a unit into normal skink's and work with that but can't decide

Core
Skink Skermisher's x20: None = 140pts

Skink Skermisher's x20: None = 140pts

Your movement phase would take forever with that many skirmishers. Not to mention they'd wind up with little room to maneuver, which is the main strength of skirmishers anyway. So if the enemy has anything with speed and armor, he can break one unit and cause massive panic checks. Basically any army that has psychology and/or armor will laugh at that kind of skink horde.

Another note, never take braves on your terradons, as it is rather pointless.

Pretty one dimensional army, but if those are the models you have...

One of my friend’s down games-workshop who I play against that uses a skaven army this is for the soul purpose for betting him and with a movement of 6 and that many numbers I think that I'll be running circles round them each BS3 carrying a blowpipe I do however see what you mean about heavily armoured army's and how they could win because I can't get rid of heavy weapon's but if I did this what do you think

Lord's and Hero's
Skink Chief: Blow Pipe, Shield, Talisman of Protection 80pts

Core
Skink's (x24): Kroxigor x3 285pts

Skink Skermishers (x20) Javelin and Shield x5 145pts

Skink Skermishers (x20) 140pts

Skink Skermishers (x20) 140pts

Specal
Terradon Rider's 150pts

Chameleon Skinks 60pts

do you think thats better

Skink Skermishers (x20) Javelin and Shield x5 145pts

What do you mean by this mate? It seems that you want to give 5 out of the 20 skinks javelins and shields. If that's the case then I'm going to have to dissapoint you and say that that would be illegal; the whole unit has to be equipped with the same weapons. So it would be 160pts for 20 javelin Skinks or 140pts for 20 blowpipe Skinks.
