Hi im starting lizardmen next week and want to come up with a balanced list so i dont waste money buying models i will never use, i really like salamanders but wasnt sure if its effective to use more than 2. Also any tips or advise on how to use them well and good scar vet builds thanks.

I would drop one salamander and scar vet and take skink priest and some skirmishers instead.

 

[NIGHTBRINGER]

I personally wouldn't take a skink priest, but I'd definitely try to find room for some Skink skirmishers

I am curious as to why you would use booth shield and halberd on your scar-vets (ezpecially the enchanted shield) since they will only be able to use the shields against missile fire. In CC they are forced to use the halberd and no shield.

Really recommend Skink Skirmishers to you and also Sallies are amazing this edition and if you can be bothered to scroll through the tactics forum a few pages in there should still be some sallie discussions on 8th.ed tactics.
Unforunatly no-one has written a tactica on them for 8th or to my knowledge any tacticas at all.
