8th Ed. 2500 Shadow Slann List for Tournament

[tenehuine]

I have a tournament coming up on Sunday and I have yet to play with my lizardmen in this edition (and I haven't used a Slann since 5th!!!!!) I've been playing my High Elves and daemons alot lately but I decided to break out my first love.

I would like whatever imput/suggestions you might have.

Slann – Lore of Shadow
Focus of Mystery
Foused Rumination
Higher State
Becalming Cogitation
Cupped Hands
Plaque of Protection
BSB
Standard of Discipline

Skink Shaman
Dispel Scroll
Blood statuette of Spite

Skink Chief spear, shield
Terradon
Tricksters Armor (heavy armor, +6 ward)
Potion of Strength
Luck Stone

Scar Vet light armor
Enchanted Shield
Ironcurse Charm
Helm of Command

Scar Vet light armor
Sword of Battle
Maiming Shield

38 Saurus full command

10 skink skirmishers
10 skink skirmishers
10 skink skirmsihers

Stegadon

7 Chameleon Skinks Champion
7 Chameleon Skinks Champion
7 Chameleon Skinks Champion

2 Salamanders 2 extra handlers
1 Salamander 1 extra handler


The slann will float around behind the saurus horde and debuff any units that get close (miasma + iceshard storm from the skink shaman will have most enemies hitting on 6s only) and for the obvious Mindrazor. Also not going to discount enfeebling foe + salamanders and miasma on init + pit of shades.

The skink chief is there to be a nuisance and maybe kamikazee a vunerable mage or BSB, or finish of a unit of calvary or monster.

No comments? Is the list just that perfect ?

Slann as bsb dosent work well because if he charges you he might no be able to touch you but he will win in combat res with ranks and a charge and if your slann flees he auto dies because banner cant flee this situation happened to me and it made me loose the game but thats jus my opinion

So far if my Slann is solo I only put him as BSB if I can nearly guarantee his safety. Or give him crown of command. Then they'll never break him.
