In the future, please do not post the individual point costs for upgrades. Its against forum rules, and a way to get the forum shut-down. I have edited both of your posts.

As far as your army goes, I have a couple suggestions. First, drop the Blood Statuette. It will generallyat most wound on a 4+, which would be alright except that the item is a one use only bound item. For the same cost, the skink could have something useful like the diadem (more forked lightning goodness) or the cloak of feathers (giving your slann enhanced LOS at a moments notice).

Secondly, your army does not have any war machine hunters. Like it or not, a 10-strong unit of scouting skinks wont make much of a dent against a war machine crew. You have several soft targets (SCOR and un-necessarily pricey Saurus), meaning that unless you can be absolutely positive that your Slann can pick up the slack, you should invest in some terries or a JSOD.

Casting Dice = 11 (plus 1 each magic spelled)

Keep in mind that you cannot use the power dice generated by the skink priests in your Slann's spells.

Oka.. Tkz for correting the post...

My second post is the final list for I´m planning... I forgot to say that I do not have any Krox or Terradons, therefore I´ve maded this way....

Against war machine I´m really do not have nothing! I inteend to use Magic, and maybe skinks.... eventualy the saurus on cold one to get them...

Friends,

i changed somethings and maded two list, to be a tournament list, since here in Brazil is our group that promotes tournaments....

I´ll post the list separately to get easy to analise, stil I remind you who will give opinions that i do not have terradons, kroks and stegs...

Just an observation, I know that saurus with spears is a lillte overpriced and therefore is not the best choice... but i love the minis, and for me I´d prefer se the army on the table as i want instead of playing just to winnings...

So...

List looks good. My only suggestion would be to drop the champ. w/the cav. (+1 atk isn't worth 20 pts. Personaly I've stopped even fielding champs. with my saurus blocks, unless theres a character in there, then I use him as a challenge soaker) and up that 16 block of saurus to 20. And thats not even necessary, the list is pretty solid.

oh, one more thing. You might think about giving your non-scouting skinks with BPs Javelins instead, they survive allot longer and can be more annoying (to the enemy that is) that way.

 

[Dalkarius]

If you can, I'd seriously suggest throwing a JSoD in there. A scar-Veteran with Mv 9 not only distracts you opponents from the slann, but it will also shut down chariots, war machines, and fairly large beasties. Other then that, the list should be rather effective, I wish you luck.
