So, my friend recons he has 6000 points of empire and suggested we take a day out and have a massive game.

I've not played a game this size before so I was wondering what people think of this army list (I haven't worked on magic items or anything yet - was just wondering what people thought of the army)

Lords

Lore Of Life Slann
Lore Of Light Slann
Oldblood of Carnosaur

Heros
Saurus Scar Vet on Cold one (in the cold one unit)
Saurus scar vet on foot (in the TG for challenges)
Skink Chief on foot (in one of the skink units)
Skink Chief of Terradon (in the terradon unit)
EotG
Skink Priest on foot (in one of the skink units)
Skink priest on foot (in one of the skink units)

Core
30 Saurus HW/S
30 Saurus HW/S
30 Saurus Spears
10 Skink Skirmishers
10 Skink Skirmishers
10 Skink Skirmishers
10 Skink Skirmishers
10 Skink Skirmishers
10 Skink Skirmishers
6 Jungle Swarms (more because I haven't used them in 8th edition and the points cost isn't too much in this game for something that is largely a "waste")

Special
10 Kroxigor
4 Terrordons (my maximum unfortunately)
30 Temple Guard
Stegadon


Rare

3 x Salamanders with extra handlers.

Suggestions will be much appreciated, includeing what magic items people would suggest. With the exception of Terrordons I have lots of spare models so can probably fit in anything people might suggest.
 
i would definetley take more saurus units! probably 4 blocks core and 2 blocks of TG, assuming you have them.

some chameleons would be good to take out at least some of thier war machines.

more salamanders and stegadons would be good too

actually.... does what you've listed even get close to 6000 points? seems really little :P

I thought that too but it does.

Because I can't give actual costs here is a "rough guide" based on each section

Lords
1300 (including lee-way for magic items and disciplines)

Heros
1000 (including lee-way for magic items)

Core
1850

Special
1200

Rare
500

Total 5850 (note I know these figures don't exactally add up, but unsure what is and isn;t allowed and thought I'd er on the side of caution)

Actually, just gone over and seen I forgot to put in the Ancient Stegadon too.

Chameleon skinks - knew I'd forgotten something.

Also should point out that all units that can have standard/champ/musician

So, more Saurus - would you drop some skinks or something from the special/char section?
