After having played Orcs & Goblins for a while now I thought it might be a good time to dust off the old lizardmen army and take it for a spin to see what they can do in 8th edition. Therefore, this weekend I am going to a tournament with 32 participants and an army restriction system which very much resembles that of the ETC. For this tournament I am planning to take the following list:
Slann Mage-Priest (Life): Battle Standard Bearer, Focus of Mystery, Becalming Cogitation, Higher State of Consciousness, Crown of Command
Scar-Veteran: Cold One, Light Armour, Charmed Shield, Burning Blade, Dawn Stone
Scar-Veteran: Cold One, Great Weapon, Light Armour, Amulet of Itzl, Dragonhelm, Luckstone
30 Saurus Warriors: Full command
10 Skink Skirmishers: Blowpipes
10 Skink Skirmishers: Blowpipes
10 Skink Skirmishers: Blowpipes
4 Kroxigors (2x2)
4 Kroxigors (2x2)
Ancient Stegadon
2 Salamander Hunting Packs
However, I am in doubt if I should go for death instead of life on the slann. Furthermore, I am in doubt if I should turn the two units of kroxigors into one unit of kroxigors (3x2) and use the spare points on one more salamander (thus having a unit of three) and the standard of discipline on the slann. (And before anyone suggests it I can mention that the army restriction system does not let me have more than one unit of salamanders.)
Any thoughts about this list and my considerations above are much appreciated.
