8th Ed. A list change idea 2000 points

[Hiv0r]

Hey guys,

I was just thinking to myself there are senarios which are reliant on having standards, looking through my army list, I only have 2 standards and a BSB, 1 templeguard, 1 saurus, 1 BSB. This coupled with the fact im taking lore of light means I would like to get 20 Saurus Warriors with Standard into the list, what would you suggest I would drop from this list to get that in?:

Lords:
Slann Mage Priest – The Focused Rumination, Focus of Mystery,
Lore of Light, Becalming Cognation, Cupped Hands, BSB, Ironcurse Icon

Hero:
Scar Vetran, Cold One, Light Armour, Charmed Shield, Dragonbane Gem,
Burning Blade of Chotec

Core:
25 Saurus Warriors – Full Command, Hand weapon + Shields
10 Skink Skirmishers
10 Skink Skirmishers
10 Skink Skirmishers

Special:
20 Temple Guard, Full command, Flaming Banner
6 Chameleon Skinks
5 Chameleon Skinks
Stegadon

Rare:
Salamander Hunting Pack, Extra handler
Salamander Hunting Pack, Extra handler


Here is a potential change, get rid of the scar vet (who deals with flamers etc, a unit of skinks and a handler):

Lords:
Slann Mage Priest – The Focused Rumination, Focus of Mystery,
Lore of Light, Becalming Cognation, Cupped Hands, BSB, Ironcurse Icon

Core:
25 Saurus Warriors – Full Command, Hand weapon + Shields
20 Saurus Warriors - Standard bearer, Hand weapon + Shields
10 Skink Skirmishers
10 Skink Skirmishers

Special:
20 Temple Guard, Full command, Flaming Banner
6 Chameleon Skinks
5 Chameleon Skinks
Stegadon

Rare:
Salamander Hunting Pack
Salamander Hunting Pack, Extra handler

I am yet to play with lizardmen but I have played this scenario a few times and from what I can tell you should keep the list the same way you had it, to win they are going to have to take out all your temple guard and slann which is no mean feat, as your bsb your slann is worth three points on the scale as he is your general as well, therefore as long as your slann stays alive then you have a high enough fortitude not to reach breaking point.

That is just what I have observed but like I said I have no experience with lizards

Well I can tell you straight off the bat that if you drop two skink units and one chameleon unit you will have enough points for 18 saurus with full command because that is pretty well my standard 2K army (with a few switcharounds).

Dropping the scar vet is an option, it depends on your local meta.
