7th Ed. Help building a tournie list

[ron]

A friend of mine wants to join a 1500pt tournament with a pretty much all skink list:

Heroes
Skink Chief /w Stegadon War Spear, Stegadon 340 points
Skink Priest Level 2 /w Engine of the Gods 395 points
Skink Priest Level 2 /w 2 Dispell Scrolls 150 points

Core
16 Skink Skirmishers /w Blowpipes, Brave 118 points
16 Skink Skirmishers /w Blowpipes, Brave 118 points
16 Skink Skirmishers /w Javelins and Shields 128 points

Special
5 Skink Chameleons 60 points
5 Skink Chameleons 60 points
4 Teradon Riders 120 points

However, this list has proved so effective in the pre-runs that he has been banned from using the following units:
Skinks
Skink Skirmishers
Terradons
Stegadons
Ancient Stegadons
Salamanders
Razordons

I know that banning this many units is totally retarded and restricts him very much, but he is still considering joining. He does not really know what to do though because he has only ever use similar lists to the above.

Any suggestions please?

 

[Scarloc]

They are banning core troops and all the rare choices? I honestly would not go. Why not just tell VC they cannot summon or rebuild any units.

 

[Craken]

That is really silly, I wouldn't go either

 

[sirhuma]

What do they say about Daemons or VC?

 

[Caneghem]

So what's left?

Saurus warriors
Jungle Swarms
Temple Guard
Cold One Cav
Kroxigors

That's it, just five choices. No point in going to a competition where your opponents are such pitiful losers... where would the fun be in winning?

See if they'll compromise by allowing only one unit of all of the things listed. So one unit of skirmishers, one ancient stegadon, one unit of terradons. I'd still be hesitant to play against such patheticness though, they would be likely to change the rules in the middle of a game.

hmmmmmm but it would be quite impressive to see him win without these units . . . . . . . . . 80 saurus anyone???
