The extra hand weapon won't get you an extra attack, so that is a waste of points, but overall the list looks pretty fun.

Thanks.

I assume that taking a great weapon would be pointless as well, since it would not stack with Sword of Strife?

That is correct.

Nope, can't ever add any weapons effects together in general, especially not magic ones.

So because of that, I would reconsider the sword of battle on the revered guardian. its +1 A, but you loose his S5 halbred, so its not that great.

Everything else looks fine. I would try to find the poitns for an ironcurse icon on the EoTG though. Cannons eat stegadons alive, so that 6+ ward is nice for only 5pts.

The EotG is going to have 5+ until it gets into combat anyway.

Ok, so I would replace AHW on my Scar-Vet with a shield for 2+ armor save.

Any suggestions for replacement for Sword of Battle? I was thinking about dropping one of the Chameleon Skinks and picking up 2+ ward save vs. shooting for the Slann.
