Well I am going to let someone else judge the layout of the Slann. Broadly speaking I'll be curious to hear how all that heavenly power is going to wreck havoc on the battlefield.

It is, however, the rest of your army that need tweaking.

If you take TG for your Slann, take 20 - no more an no less

Split up the Chameleon Skinks into two units of 5 - more manouverability and flexibility

The Saurus blocks are too small. Their purpose usually is to hold up something, as an anvil unit. Blocks of just 15 won't be able to hold out for very long.

Skink Skirmishers are fine.

Skink Cohorts are ok. You don't need the command unit though. Perhaps just make a third unit of skirmishers out of this one and use points elsewhere.

Skinks and Kroxigors. This unit rarely worked for me. Again, If you find yourself short of points while re-arranging the army list, this would be first thing to drop

(...and I sound like a broken tape considering all other army lists on the forum but)...add Sallies to your army.

I also miss some sort of hammer unit in your army to help out the TG or Saurus once they're in combat. A unit of Cold Ones or a Stegadon can help there.


Hope that helps some

Good luck

Dont think you can take Cupped Hands and a Dispel Scroll.

I agree that your Saurus units are to small. Maybe try dropping TG and making Saurus units 20 - 25 each and and stick Slaan in one of them.

I agree in pslitting up the Chameleons as well, and drop the Stalker, you are just paying for extra HtH attack, if you are in CC with Chameleons then you have bigger problems.

Also you only need about 10 Skinks to bunker Tetto Eko, I use him a fair bit and never once has he seen combat, put the other 10 skinks in to your SKROX unit to bolster thier numbers.

Just my 2 cents

You are quite right. You can't have two arcane items on the same character. You'll need to put the scroll on a lvl1 priest or do without if you can't manage the points.

I personally like the Cube of Darkness on a lvl1 Skink Priest.

Same here. 105pts for one spell (fingers crossed for the comet), an extra 1/6 chance of channeling (making your likelihood of an extra dice 1/2) and the power to completely shut down an enemy phase. Deal! Against magic strong armies (or Teclis), this can win you the game!

That list looks much better to me.

I am not a fan of spears, but that us just my personal play style.

You should do well with this list.
