8th Ed. Lizardmen 2.5k - Swedish komp

[Arclight79]

Trying out lizardmen for the first time, so trying to build an army that "might" work, but have no idea really.
So will post here and gladly take some advice, and idea behind the whole list here is try to build without magic.



Lord:
Saurus Oldblood 451p - komp 14
-Carnosaur
-Burning Blade of Chotec
-Glittering Scales
-Talisman of Preservation

Hero:
Skink Chief 405 - Komp 18
-BSB
-Ancient Stegadon
-Stegadon War Spear


Oxyotl 160 - Komp 4


26 Saurus Warriors 316p - Komp 13
-Full Command


17 Skinks 91p - Komp 2
-Musician

17 Skinks 91p - Komp 2
-Musician

17 Skinks 91p - Komp 2
-Musician

11 Skinks 55p - Komp 2


10 Chameleon Skinks 120p - komp 13


10 Chameleon Skinks 120p - komp 22


3 Salamander 225p - Komp 55


3 Salamander 225p - Komp 45


2 Razordon 150p - Komp 6


No wiz in army: +5

Points: 2500
Komp 10.7

So basic idea, general for monster hunting.
Skink chief on stegadon for large reroll bubble and killing inf.
Small skinks are diverters mainly, but can still shot.
Cham skinks war machine hunters.
Salamanders to destroy blocks off inf
Razordons are just to fill komp and to support.

Will this work, or am I looking at it all wrong?

Interesting system for making balanced armies. I'm not entirely sure I understand it, but I believe I get the majority of it.

Your list is rather untraditional. I would look into swapping most of those units of 17 Skinks with musicians out for Skirmishers. I see they are comped more, but there is a good reason for it. Either that or combine a couple units and get a couple Kroxigor to help them out.

I kind of think Oxyotl is not a very good choice. He might add to the comp of your list, but I don't think he'll be worth it unless you get him to snipe an enemy wizard on turn 1. Let us know how he works out.

And welcome to the forum!

Yeah, I was trying something that I don't see in every other army. Of course, there is a reason that most armies look like eachother. But there is no fun in just having no fun in playing around. Thats why my base in the army is really the 2 blocks of salamanders that will go and hunt enemy inf. Oxyotl is just as you said, to hunt lose wizards or snipe one in a group. But will take some time before I get a chance to test this army due to real life, but hope to try it out soon
I'm trying to keep the skinks as they are, cause they will just be diverting stuff and be a shielding effect for salamanders.
