[Marinero]

Greetings,

First post here, hope not to be the last . Back to my lizzies after a 2 year pause, so quite rusty... I am preparing for a tournament in the beginning of march. 2400 points, last year's ETC restrictions in place.

Here is the list:

*1 Slann Mage-Priest @ 435.0 Pts
General; 3 Discipline; Magic Level 4; Lore of Death
# Focused Rumination
# Higher State of Consciousness
# Becalming Cogitation
Obsidian Amulet
Bane Head
Plaque of Tepok


* 1 Saurus Scar-Veteran @ 186.0 Pts
Great Weapon; Battle Standard
Armour of Destiny
1 Cold One

* 1 Saurus Scar-Veteran @ 161.0 Pts
Great Weapon; Light Armour
Dragonhelm
Dawn Stone
Venom of Firefly Frog
1 Cold One

* 22 Saurus Warriors @ 283.0 Pts
Shield; Standard; Musician
1 Champion

* 22 Saurus Warriors @ 283.0 Pts

1 Champion

* 10 Skink Skirmishers @ 70.0 Pts

* 10 Skink Skirmishers @ 70.0 Pts

My idea is to have the Slann kill his chars and most dangerous monsters, and let the rest of the army grind to victory, using the superior lizzardnem fighting prowress..

Advice and ideas are welcome

Cold One Cav isnt the greatest unit in the world, and since ETC lists tend to be hard as hell I'd drop them. A single Steg is also pretty bad, since everyone in tournaments have armies that are adequately equipped to kill dragons, hydras and abombs so a single Steg is going to be ez. I used to play EoTG with no 2nd steg and it hardly ever survived turn 3, often dying in turn 2 or even in turn 1 against shooty armies. Now I go for either 1 regular steg and 1 ancient or no stegs at all.

I'd switch the CoC for a second steg, or drop the steg in order to boost your saurus numbers and maybe add a sallies or cammos. Just my 0.2$.
