That leaves 53 Points to play with. Should I increase the saurus units ? Add some cavalry ? A banner ? What do you guys think ? I know I'm facing atleast one helf.

I have the following models to pick from:
Scar vet on foot
Scar vet on Coldone
Skink Priest on foot
14 Cold one Cavalry
4 Skink skirmishers
5 Templeguard

What do you guys think ? Make space for a Jag charm scar vet ? Beef up infantry numbers ?

Have you thought about making your Slann the BSB? This may be a great route to go since it doesn't look like you have one yet and does some neat stuff for the army.

 

[DonkeyHotep]

Make Slann Bsb, buy Rod of Storms for the engineer, lose the champs, make that 11 skinks with kroxigor, drop soul of stone, make it 16 temple guard, and war banner is the best item in the game take one in every army that can.

Also, you can save some points by making the skirmishers not be skirmishers, and they could be six wide with your extra skinks and still throw lots of javelins and conceivably beat some skirmishing units.

If you insist on taking a scar vet, put him on the cold ones and they will suddenly be able to charge at unit on their own, especially with the war banner.

Thanks for all the Feedback - the Magepriest is already a BSB, I forgot to put it in there.

Well Frankly i like having 16 temple guard and run them 6 wide. I run my Sarus 18 with 6 wide. So you can do both. The thing that i find works really well is to put a hero into my Temple Guard unit. My hero thats 0 armor save and 5+ ward comes to mind. Hes stupid but and iv rolled it before but there is nothing like getting an super killy character stuck on your hero and only do 1 wound or no wounds, and then winning by bsb warbanner banner 2-3 ranks outnumber and 1-2 wounds.

He're how i'd roll
