This seems like the best way I can get a double engine, Slann and Scar-Vet on Carno. Thoughts?

Your slann is not ethereal and there is no temple guard. He will attract all shooting and likely die early. Not the biggest deal in the world if it lets your monsters run free but I would put the BSB elsewhere.

Giant blade is decent enough but has a massive downside of its armour penetration (so does the carnosaur for that matter) so ensure to keep it away from heavy cav. (The Talisman of Protection IMO is the best item in the game and the same cost, I would be tempted to take it instead and a great weapon. You might need to drop the sheild to get characters under 1000)

Blowpipes are awful. They are wose than javelins and cost more. I had one good game with them (which was really my opponents error of being happy to charge a large toughness low armour giant straight at them, followed by some lucky rolling) and I persisted for too long.

3x for Kroxigor and Terradon are not ideal as one dying will trigger a panic. I like to run 4 but you may not be able to fit it in.

1) slann MUST be ethereal if you don’t play templeguards 2) scan veteran on carno without ts is rly rly bad

As before written plus don’t forget to play at least one scout unit and maybe some vanguard units
