You may want to consider giving the slann celestial apotheosis to start with. That way if your opponent goes first you can heal a few wounds on the trog or kroak.
 
on average you could get 1 salamander a turn from the summoning points generated, playing the long game to pick apart units and delay with skink screens
 
Agree on the spell change @Jason839 proposed. If you don't need it, you can always change it, but it's better to have in the pocket than Mystical Unforging, which may not even come up.

I assume layer upon layer of skinks, or are you going to be making a skink picket fence in general? The Salamanders look like a good heat seeking missile or as a counter-assault unit for this list. I might run this. I have everything in it but the Stormcast.....

Any games scheduled to use this list?

Yes totally agree on the spell change.

The plan is to keep layers of skinks yea. Maybe have one or two in reserve. Im thinking of keeping the salamanders in reserve if the opponent has alot of shooting. If not, I will keep on the board and have the priest buff them. The skink priest can also buff the save on the Troglodon if needed.

Im planing on using this list in a local tournament. This tourny is a little different as the players who got paired will have to get the game in on their own within a couple of weeks time. The first game will be between 5 - 21 of March.
 
There will be a Null Myriad Bonereaper army in the tournament. I have never faced them before. Their spell save will be really annoying and the crawlers look super scary. Do you have any advice facing them?
 
Salamanders first target methinks. If he has two, it can definitely hurt. But you need to guarantee a kill in one round or the Cursed Steele is going to quite possibly wipe a character.

Do you have the list or is it just someone told you they would play Null?

Thats a toughy, but with enough spell slinging, you can burn through their characters. And if they use their Command Points to make the save a +2 roll, you've burned it so they cant use them for other commands.
Good application of the Salamanders and choice targets for spells are going to win that fight. I think.

Got a major win against the Gitz on Focal Point. He was very unlucky in this game, barely passed any of his spell ignore abilities on all the spider units. I got a double turn in the begining and that pretty much decided the game. He had no units left on turn four.
I had arcane terrain on my side, very few spells were failed to cast and only one got unbounded. Kroak had +5 on casting rolls.
The next round will be drawn on sunday. Im still very scared of the bonereapers list, there is a very high chance that I will face them at some point in the tournament.
 
That sounds about right with the two catapults and the wall of bone coming down at you.
Congrats!

The skinks are really the true heroes, they slowed the skeletons down quite a bit and snatching objectives via LoSaT. It almost felt like playing the old Seraphon.
 
Round 3 draw has been created. I will face Slaves to darkness this time. Never played them before, got any advice for them?

I know nothing about Slaves to Darkness but you need to crush him just for bringing two sorcerers in what is otherwise a Khorne list.
