7th Ed. 2K vs VC

[GMS]

Hi

Having a 2K vs VC, he does not have many skeletons(3 small blocks), GG, a Vargulf(spelling?), maybe a drangon(HE one) and Characters.


Slaan
(BSB, 4 Disciplines (Extra PD, Every spell, Becalming Cogitation, Regn.) Cupped Hands, DSx2)

Skink Priest
(Lv 2, PD->DD, Fly)

Scar Vet
(CO, LA, Shld, 5+ward, -2AS & Flaming attacks)

Scar Vet
(CO, LA, Piranha Blade, E Shld)

15 Saurus
(Full Commard, Spears)

15 Saurus
(Full Commard, Spears)

10 Saurus
(Full Commard)

5 Chameleon Skinks
(Staller)

5 Chameleon Skinks
(Staller)

6 Saurus Cavlery
(Full Command, War Banner)

Slann and one Scar Vet will be in a Saurus unit each, while the other will be in with the CO's. Priest will Fly into a Skink unit, getting forward.
Slann will take Lore of Light

Thankyou for any comments

Have you thought about taking out a CO? If you do that, then you still have 6 when you put in your scarvet. 7 is just so unwieldy and do you think they'll take one out to shooting/magic before you charge in?

If you take it out, I would use the points to get 2 more saurus at least for your small group.

Also, I would probably lose the Regen on the Slann. Unless there's a spell or something that you want to protect him from?

That's 50 points right there. I'm sure you could find something to do with them.

Are you using the chameleons to march block?

 

[GMS]

Yea thats all my Saurus models(would love more), CS for march blocking. VC have no shooting, but good point, might put both Scar Vets in the CO's if I need to, makes 8, 4x2. That or might run a Scar Vet on foot with a GW and Venom of the Firefly Frog(just to make the attacks magical)

4x2 Cold One Riders is completely useless, 7th edition encourages 5-6 models for cavalry units, unless you're going for a 2nd rank but you could spend that 2nd rank points in a much better way...

What worries me is the fact that you plan on putting your Slann with your Saurus.
Normally that's questionable, but against VC?
I'd more than srongly advise you to buy TG instead of some Saurii. They cost some more, but they WILL hold.
Stuff you can drop:
Regeneration on the Slann. If deployed with Temple Guard, the enemy cannot reach him anyway.
the stalkers in the chameleon skinks, they serve no purpose. The added BS has no major advantage, and is cerntainly not worth the points.
Drop a CO as has been told.
Drop the FC on the small Saurus Warriors unit. These guys (I assume) are flankers (given the fact that they don't have spears). So, at best, give them a musician. Keep 'em cheap!
Maybe you could drop the musician in the SCOR, if you are really scrambling for points.
This should give you enough points to upgrade a unit of Saurii to Temple Guard.

Have you considered the Plaque of DOminion? Combine this with your excellent magic defense, and stupid vampires...great fun.
Stupid vamps do not generate PD and cannot charge, or move the way he wants at all!

With your Saurii upgraded to Temple guard, the need for the Second scar-vet is somewhat lessened. You could consider removing him in favor of more units (skinks!! the regular ones)
