List is ok, a lot of unneccisarily bad small choices (a few champions here and there)

Taking a 100 point skink caster without a arcane item (he is screaming out for a dispel scroll)

Sunstaff is no where near as good as cube of darkness or diadem.

The Krox unit could do with buffing.

You havnt mentioned at all what lore you slann is using or which discalpines hes chosen which makes a huge difference in how good your list is.

If you have taken life its OK but way to Saurus heavy, if you have taken light your probably about right on the saurus. If you have made him ethreal with shadow it would be interesting. It makes a huge difference to your army though...

I would advise more chaff (terradons, skink skirmishers, chameleons, salamanders) enabling you to fight on your terms.
