1st of all, the Skink Chief on the Ancient Stegadon does not need a shield and light armor. It says in the rule book that the Howdah saving throw (2+ in case of an Ancient Stegadon) is unmodifiable. So the only way those items will help is if the Stegadon dies. Before him. Unlikely, possible, but unlikely.

--Drop 2 dispel scrolls -- Not all your opponents will have magic casters, which means that sometimes you will be throwing away 50 points. Against opponents with some-more magic, you a decent amount of dispel dice that should be able to blunt or entirely crap on your opponents magic. These items are too situational and are therefore able to be dropped without too much grieving.
--Drop bane head. - Not all the slanns spell will be damage spells. Furthermore, not all armies you fight will have generals that you can a) target b) hurt at all with magic c) have characters that are more worth targeting than units
--Drop glyph necklace OR a terradon -- Your skink priest has a 2+ save. Kinda good. 30 points is a lot. -- OR, terradons come in minimum unit size 3. 3 terradons still perform exactly the same function as 4 (that is, they march block people and charge war machine crews, and occasionally charge a scroll-caddy if he's in a dumb place).

ADDITIONAL -- Dropping the Magic Items will lower the amount of point you are spending on characters by almost a 100. This will be better in general for your composition scores at tournaments. You are spending butt-tonnes on characters already.

ADDITIONAL* -- Swap The Becalming Cogitation for Focus of Mystery. The combo is better bro.

I already have Focus of Mystery added. Look next to where I typed "Slann Mage-Priest"

But thank you, you chopped it down 101pts so now it's just under 2250. Thanks.

Sall good boss, enjoy your games.

you can only add 1 additional skink handler to each of the sallies so dropping those back down will save you 10 points already

Kewl. If you can, I'd suggest downloading army builder(unless you don't got a Computer and printer), It works really good, there are almost 0 mistakes, and it's pretty cheap... It's what I use, and it's pretty good.
