Hi fellow lizards ;)

So i have had some fights against a friend of mine. He has made a list that he finds compedative and i would like your opinions on how to win against my previously superior foe.
His list i compriced of a lot of chariots enough for core allowance (i think its 5), two daemon canon chariots, four of those flying giant bees (dont remember name), a beastmen named character (lvl 2 death) that starts the game by forcing all enemy units into taking 2d6 hits with no armour save allowed and last but not least a demonprince, with lvl 4 death...

we are going to use the ETC comp magic rules... which limits his death magic.

2500 pts.

So how should i make my army... i really like monster mash and have an army where i have 2 carnosaurs (1 oldblood/1scar-vet), a slann(highmagic) and 2 ancient stegs, and 3 skirmishers and 2 cohorts and 24 saurus.

or should i choose tettoeko and a slann with a flying skinkchief a scarvet on COC, with skrimishers and the like perhaps razordons for a nice hand of god. ??

i hope you can help me... i will post drafts of a promissing list soon.
 
A monster mash list is a very disadvantageous setup when facing a pair of cannons. I think the inclusion of multiple scar-vet and old blood cowboys will go a long way in combating his forces.
 
so here is the first draft:
Lords 721:
oldblood; CO, GW, AoD, dawnstone, OTS
Slann; BSB, becalming cogitation, focus, Harmonic convergence, soul of stone, channeling staff

Heroes 329:
Scarvet; CO, GW, LA, Dragonhelm
Skink Chief; Ripper, LA, Spear, Egg of quango, enchanted shield
Skink priest lvl 1; dispelscroll, Heavens

Core 634:
24 saurus sword and board Full Command
10 cohort; banner
4 x 10 skink skirmishers

Special 680:
7 kroxigors with champion
5 rippers
3 rippers

Rare 134:
1 razordon pack of 2 razordons and 1 extra snack.
 
second draft:
Lords 731:
oldblood; CO, GW, AoD, dawnstone, OTS
Slann; BSB (banner of eternal flame), becalming cogitation, focus of mystery, Harmonic convergence, soul of stone, channeling staff

Heroes 329:
Scarvet; CO, GW, LA, Dragonhelm
Skink Chief; Ripper, LA, Spear, Egg of quango, enchanted shield
Skink priest lvl 1; dispelscroll, Heavens

Core 650:
25 saurus sword and board Full Command
13 cohort; banner, 1 krox
4 x 10 skink skirmishers

Special 590:
7 Cold one riders (musician, Champion)
6 rippers
3 rippers

Rare 199:
1 razordon pack of 3 razordons and 1 extra snack.

So what do you guys think i have been brooding on ways to get the charge, so i switched the kroxigors out and replaced them with COC which contains my Scarvet and oldblood, the rippers will hopefully pose a threat to his cannons and the razordons will have a lot of shots to shoot at the chariots...
 
In second draft I would prefer skink priest with lore of beast.
 
Skinsk, many skinks! Handle it! For the core, yeah. Id suggest you a regular CoC bus list with Tetto'eko.
