Hello everyone
What do you think about this list? I ask your help, please tell me if this kind of list could be competitive against various opponents, like: Stormcast, Death, Elves and others.
(I beg your pardon for my english and mistakes)

1250 list

Kroak. General (450)
E. Warren (140)
S. Priest, priestly trappings (80)

5X Saurus Guard (100)
5X Saurus Guard (100)
5X Saurus Guard (100)

Bastiladon, beam (280)

tot: 1250/1250

Think you in advice.
 
Hello there!

Off the top of my head I think it needs a little work. You're running all the prerequisites for the Eternal Starhost, but you haven't taken it along. Also I think Kroak may be a bit to expensive for a 1250 pt. game.

In regards to your oponents I only have experience with Death (vampires) and Stormcast. I personally think the Eternal Starhost would do fine against Death, but it may be tough against Stormcast (SE) will all their mortal wounds. You'll have to focus on removing the sources of the SE's mortal wounds first.

Remember, if you have to tank anything with mortal wound output, your basti has ward save for 'em. Also I believe some of the SE paladin units do mortal wounds on a roll of 6 to hit. Rememeber to use your Summon Starlight spell from your Slann to either debuff the SE unit or but the Seraphon unit you can see they'll target.

With just minor reworks I would change your list as follows:

Allegiance: Seraphon
Skink Priest
(80)
- Priestly Trappings
Saurus Eternity Warden (140)
- Artefact: Coronal Shield
Slann Starmaster (260)
- General
- Trait: Vast Intellect
- Artefact: Incandescent Rectrices

5 x Saurus Guard (100)
5 x Saurus Guard (100)
5 x Saurus Guard (100)
10 x Skinks (60)
- Meteoric Javelins & Star Bucklers
Bastiladon (280)
Eternal Starhost (130)

Reinforcement Points (0)

Total: 1250 / 2000

The skinks I threw in to fill the last 60 pts. but they work well for both screening and point grabbing.
 
I like what @Furnus suggests.
A Bastiladon and an Eternal Starhost are almost unkillable in 1250 points for many armies. Just try and focus down anything that can deal mortal wounds as early as possible.
Guards without the Starhost is a waste IMO.

I still think a Kroak list might actually work, since there are not many things that fit into a 1250 list and can actually kill him. But then I would probably try and go Skink-heavy for protection. Pretty hard to do. But here is a - cheesy - list for that which could maybe work. A Kroaknado light.

Allegiance: Seraphon

Leaders
Lord Kroak (450)
- General
Skink Starpriest (80)
Saurus Astrolith Bearer (160)
- Artefact: Incandescent Rectrices

Battleline
40 x Skinks (200)
- Meteoric Javelins & Star Bucklers
40 x Skinks (200)
- Meteoric Javelins & Star Bucklers
10 x Skinks (60)
- Meteoric Javelins & Star Bucklers

Scenery
Balewind Vortex (100)

Reinforcement Points (0)

Total: 1250 / 1250
Allies: 0 / 400
