oh lord, what happened here?
My first advice: keep posting in a single topic, it's easier both for you and the other people ;)
Ok, now regarding the list:
  • in 8th edition you can spend max 25% of your points in heroes, so you have 200 points to spend: your heroes cost too much!
  • no reason to give a magical weapon to the priest, you don't want him in combat!
  • your scar vet has both a shield and the enchanted shield: sadly he cannot;
  • the max armor save is 1+, and yours would actually be -1+ ;) ;
  • when i suggested you a big close combat unit with smaller support units you probably have misunderstood me: usually the close combat unit is a tough one (like saurus warriors or temple guards) and the supporting ones are smaller and fast.
So, here's some other advices:
  • If i were in you i'd field a single Hero and no lords, choosing between a caster and a fighter;
  • 30 skirmishers in a unit are pointless, you need them to redirect, annoy and shoot down some nasty things with poison: two units of 10 without champions would be enough;
  • 15 temple guard are way too few: like saurus warriors they're slow and so they need large numbers to actually have the chance to strike. I'd go with saurus warriors anyway: they're cheaper and if you keep your beast skink the typical will make them really strong.
I'm not posting you an actual list because i don't know what you have and because i think that it's better if you write your own list, but I hope to help you with some basic principles :D
 
The way I see it... your TG are slow, and even if Lore of beasts will buff'em, you cannot lan too much the magic phase, given that you'll only have 2 spells.
What about Tetto, instead of the priest? Can you squeeze him in your points?
Your TG will get vanguard, and you can plan your magic phase (casandora / Urannon the enemy at a distance, then your guards will reroll the ones)
