8th Ed. Is this a boring list? (500pts Triumph & Trechery 5v5)

[Sebbs]

Hello everybody

We're having our second T&T game this Saturday and given the amount of mistakes we did last time (blaming those on the 2,25% beers we had ) this time around we're having smaller armies and no mercs (there will still be beer though )!

So I've been thinking all week about what I could and should use. At first I was really psyched about bringing a normal Stegadon since I don't think there will be any cannons at all, but considering it's basically 20 saurus warriors it probably isn't the smartest of ideas (please tell me otherwise because a stegadon in a game like this would look pretty pimp! )

Anyway here's what I've come up with:

• Heroes116pts)
  
  Scar-vet: (116pts)
  Light Armour, Enchanted Shield, Luckstone, Sword of Might
  
  
• Core: (299pts)
  
  Saurus Warriors:
  19x Saurus Warriors with Spears?, Standard Bearer, Musician
  
  Skink Skirmishers:
  10x Skink Skirmishers
  
  
• Rare: (84pts)
  
  Salamander Hunting Pack:
  Salamander, Additional Handler
  
  
• Total: 499pts

The list seems pretty solid, right? I reckon I've got something for most threats but the list is pretty boring. Maybe it doesn't matter since T&T are so crazy to begin with?

500pts is so little, the choices are narrow, my second question is: What would you bring to the table @ just 500 points?!


Regards,
Sebbs

I'm not sure what the rules are entirely for T and T but you need at least 1 hero and 3 units at 500 points. Just letting you know because i don't think you could fit a stegadon easily into 500 unless you did two units of skinks

I know, it's possible though:

Heroes: 91pts
Scar Veteran: Light Armour, Enchanted Shield

Core: 192pts

12x Saurus Hand Weapon, Standard

10x Skink Cohort

Special: 2xxpts
Stegadon, Giant Bow

Total: Just below 500pts


The downside is you lose punch with the Saurus after the first three goes down.

The upside is naturally the Terror causing, impact hitting, S5 T6 A4 4+, ITP, Stubborn monster busy thunder stomping a bunch of what have ye!
