8th Ed. Need Help With Building Army

[KroxGor3]

I havent played warhammer or warhammer 40k in about 4 years or so(probably closer to 6 years now)

I had stopped playing while I was building a LM army and still havent purchased a new rulebook and codex(im weary of spending the $100+ until i know if i have something i can still use)

the list of models i have is as follows:

1 saurus SC/OB
1 skink priest
30 saurus warriors FC w/ spears
25 saurus warriors FC w/ HW
20 skink skirmishers w/ blowpipes
16 skinks w/ Jav and Shields
10 temple guard FC (thinking of getting Chakax)
8 saurus calvary FC w/ HW and shields

Total Points: (no idea, dont have the updated codex)

never quite finished filling out the army as you can see and im pretty sure that alot has changed since i had begun. any suggestions of what i can add, do without, what items to add to characters, etc. would be greatly appreciated.

side note: can kroxigors still charge through skink skirmishers?

1 Old Blood

1 skink priest - Level 2, +1 Spell item

30 saurus warriors FC w/ spears
25 saurus warriors FC w/ HW

10 skink skirmishers w/ blowpipes
10 skink skirmishers w/ blowpipes

Probably around 1.2k ish right there.

==========================

16 skinks w/ Jav and Shields (Need more models or just say they are cameleon skinks or something)
10 temple guard FC (Need more of these and useually better with a slann otherwise you can loose points easily on them)
8 saurus calvary FC w/ HW and shields (Are not amazing this edition but could be used to get some points up)

thanks for the info,

do you have any suggestions on what i should add next(unit-wise)?

 

[Hiv0r]

If you want magic add a slann, if you want combat add either a Skrox unit or Stegadon/Ancient Stegadon?

Then salamanders are always good in this editions with their -3 armour save.

The good thing is you really have all the basics the rest of it is down to flavour (all except your lord choice, which slann is usually preffered)

Could buy another box of temple guard and have them running around with a scar vetran in if you wanna go combat.

5 cold ones just to use them....

1250

next things to buy

1 box of tg

2-4 salamanders

chameleons or convert skirmishers or simply paint them green

slann

play old blood as scar-vet

use a lore of light slann an go kill evil things!

and no krox cant charge through skinks but can instead form units with them and you can get skinks in ranks they can get kroxigors as an upgrade its a pretty good unit but with the models you already own you should not buy them
