That's 112 models @ 2248 points. By all means, take it apart, and tell me what works and what doesn't.

*Edit* Oh yeah, I guess I should point some things out. The Scar-Vet will go with the 18 Saurus unit, and the Skink Priest will go with one of the Skink Skirmisher units.

except my usual no champion in saurus policy i think you should get 1 more ranked skink. now your unit has 10+[4] models, with 1 more you would have 11+[4] => 5x3 => 3/4 static. 5 points for an extra rank is worth it

You are always very quick with responses, Bib.

Well, I was reading elsewhere about the saurus blocks, and I realized that they did not need champions. It was mentioned, however, that having a champion in a unit that will have a hero in it will allow the champion to accept challenges in his place, just in case I run into something that would really just mess him up.

I just don't know where to get the points for the extra skinks.

 

[Bibamus]

i actually can't see a saurus character losing a challenge... with a cold one under him any equipment will keep him alive really.
this comes from a skaven player tough where accepting challenges is banned for life and i usually don't challenge with my scar vet
a champion is extra protection indeed, but i'm not sure its needed

 

[maniclurker]

Alright, I'll drop the champ. That should net me a skink or 2.

BTW, do you think I should bother with the Scar-Vet's mirror shield or no? I could drop it for a Burning Blade of Chotek or maybe a Sword of Battle or something like that, and pick up another skink or 2.

*Edit* Alright, I re-wrote it with some changes. I added a skink to each of the skirmishing units, some skinks to the cohort, and changed the scar-vet's equipment. I just edited my original instead of reposting.
