Tactics are advance in a line with sallies and kroxi on one flank to either distract or destroy depending with the enemy
Take the bait, skinks chaff control, priests buff with wild form and hope for amber spear, slann life every thing ( T 7 Saurus anyone?)
Swarms Add to combats to poison or block fast movers and flankers
Im worried about war machines so i could drop kroxi for rippers or terradons?
C&C very welcome

General deployment idea


Skinks
Saurus. Temple guard Saurus. Sally kroxi Sally
Skink priest Skink priest
Swarms Swarms

I'm not sure how useful Gor-Rok is, I mean that gigantic block of Sauruses is gonna smash just about everything it touches anyway. You could have roughly 4 Rippers or 2 Sallies or 30 Skink Skirmishers instead. I just can't see him being worth the points compared to other options. Not that I don't think he's really good, I just feel like to make him shine you need a specific plan for him. Like stick him with 10-14 Stubborn Sauruses and flank with them? Or sometihng.

Thanks for the feed back, my reasoning for roky is twofold, firstly he is possibly the single most beautiful model gw has ever made, he will be a joy to paint and second my main armies i will face are a tomb kings chariot force, brets and a nasty high elf with a butt ton of silver helms. So the dangerous terrain test coupled with the beast spell" curse of arheir?"
( basically a hex that fails terrain tests on a 1 or 2 so a 1,2or 3 with the shield
But I see ur point about the extra cold bodies his points could become. Ill have to test it out and see but im getting the model regardless lol

The list is nice i dont do special characters though and 3 kroxigor seem a little small i saying that put 1 in 2 units of 10 skinks slows the enemy down a bit.
