This is a list that I play all the time. It has won me a bunch of games. I'd say around 65-85% of my games have been victories, ranging from minor to massacres.

This is by no means a tournament list. Or at least, I don't believe it is. I just sat down one day and started making a list based off of both what I had and what I liked. In my collection, I also have plenty more Skinks w/ javelins and others w/ more blow pipes. And, around 20+ Cold One Riders.

Anyway, I guess I just want your thoughts on my list. Things that can be improved.
I've been playing since this previous summer (2010), but I never do tournaments. A lot of my friends tear me apart in 40K because I just don't think like I'm at a tournament.

Nice list. The two things that I think it needs are chameleons and salamanders. At 2500 points, I would go for at least two units of 1. Two units of two would be better. A lack of warmachine hunters does concern me though. A unit or two of chameleons would fix that.

Welcome to the forum too!
 
This list, has been evolving over time. Before, it had a Scar Vet with a BSB, and four units of Skink Skirmishers. The skirmishers were used to seek out the war machines, and just fill them up with poison.
40 skinks = 80 shots. Let's go 6's! :D

But, over times I noticed that I was facing less and less war machines.
Using Lore of Life, my opponents just seem to have the worst time killing me. I prioritize my own units as if I were playing for the other size, and buff them accordingly.
When my Warriors are toughness 8 with 4+ Regeneration, I'm not too worried about war machines. ;)
