My first army without Slann D: I think, i've done something wrong.


Skink priest (heavens or beasts?)
Level 2 wizard, dispell scroll, channeling staff



30 Saurus Warriors (horde)
Full command, spears.



6 chameleon skinks
with stalker


Bastiladon
Solar engine





Some questions:
Should i take lore of heavens or lore of beasts?
I'm not sure about stalker, but +1 bs can, sometimes, do miracles.
I had an idea to take jungle swarm (cause of "They're everywhere!" rule) and salamander instead of bastiladon.

P.S.: i'm really, really sorry for mistakes.
 
Hey !

For the skink priest you should probably go beast, as weyssan outweights iceshard when only running one caster. drop the channeling staff and look into ruby ring of ruin, that item does wonder on small point games.

Furthermore, you definitely don't need that many saurus, and having the horde means you're taking spears for nothing (already hit on 3 ranks on horde).


The chameleons do wonders, though the stalker isn't needed, really you only rely on 6's for poison.


the thing is, I really like to have the general inspiring presence of a scarvet, plus thos cow boys are un killable on low point games.

So this are the changes I'd give to your list:

- Scar veteran, cold one, great weapon, light armor, dawnstone, Foolhardiness potion (Or the armor of destiny version, see the cow boy tactica in the forum articles sticky).

- 22 saurus full command Hand weapon shiekd.

- 10 skink skirmisher (shield and javelin) // you need those they are awsome


- Bastiladon, solar engine (roll 6 dices on it, cant miscast on innate items...)

- 8 chameleons


(I woul'nt take a salamander. unit size won't be big enough for it to make a huge difference)

there you are. You can switch the scar vet for a Beast skink priest lvl 2 with weyssan and rruby ring of ruin and a dispell scroll... But I really think a scar vet packs more needed punch and High strengh attacks than the utility the priest can put on the table.

Ps: remove the point listing.
 
You can have points listing, just not individual points costs. Totals are ok (Lord/Hero/Core/Special/Rare).

Yeah, i read about cowboys, but i'm not sure that i need him. He's cool and stuff, but i want some support for sau. Or, maybe, i can change bast for stega and buff him.
