8th Ed. 2250 Warhammer'd Tournament

[Eladimir]

Our group is renting a hall for a drinking and gaming tourney so hard lists are to be avoided but prizes are on the line so competive is still a go.
After losing several games to hordes thought I'd try one myself, what do you guys think

Slann - Rumination, Becalming, BSB (Std Disciple), Cupped
in 20 Temple Guard with FC and Flaming Banner

4 Terradons
2 Salamanders w/ +2 handlers
6x2 Chamo Skinks

38 Saurus + FC (10x4)
with Scar Vet GW+Gambler Armour
with Scar Vet LA Shield Burning Blade

30 Skinks + 3 Krox + Std + Music

Comes out to an even 2250 and would be deployed

Saurus TG Skrox (Terradons on the needed flank)

Any experience with saurus hordes appreciated.

I know hordes might not be best for Saurus cause we get 2 attacks front row but I'm having issues making headway vs big'uns for example in horde format. The 5x5 vs 10x4 ends up with him getting 21 attacks on my units to my 15 back.

I like the list so far. The only possible changes that I would make would be to take 2 units of 2 sallies. Where to shave the points from will be hard though.

In the saurus block, I would run them 6 wide probably. 10 wide is just too big for that unit to stay maneuverable. I would assume that you will be using lore of Life. Lore of Light would work as well with this unit. Light would give you the option to use Birona's time warp early in the game to get a charge on the second turn (possibly).
