8th Ed. 2500 against VC

[Naranek]

As my older lists, this is mostly to test different possibilities of the Lizards. In the next game I will fight against VC, but I don't have idea of how could be his army. The idea of the list is to test saurus hordes.

The list:

- Slann Mage Priest: General, BSB (Eternal Flame), Cupped Hands, Focused Rumination. Lore of Light

- Oldblood with Cold One, Great Weapon, Glittering Scales, Aura of Quetzl and Venom of the Firefly Frog

- 2 blocks of 30 Saurus warriors, full command, Spawning Champion

- 30 Temple Guard with full command, Revered Guardian (terrifying mask of eee!), War Banner

- Skink Priest (lvl 2), Cube of Darkness, Ancient Stegadon

- 2 Salamanders with 8 handlers

The idea is to form solid blocks of horde saurus, launch ASAP the oldblood against his VC and use the salamanders, burning alignment and offensive spells against his main line. If the terrain configuration is good enough, I probably will launch my blocks against him.

Interesting choice with the Glittering Scales character, he's sure to mess with blood knights lol.

Saurus hordes usually thrive against vampires, just because his zombie and other light infantry hordes are so much weaker! The Cube of Darkness is also a good choice, because silencing the enemy magic phase at a bad time would probably sink him/her.

Consider matching core against core and elite against elite in this match. Love to see the look on their face when the opponent has to deal with minus 3 to hit on that lord xD
