In general your list is good, but you have to make a few tweaks to make it legal!

You have to have a banner already in order to upgrade it to a magical one - and the Oldblood cannot carry a standard!

Youre also lacking a battle standard bearer (allows you to reroll leadership tests within 12")


Here is a slightly modified, legal version of your list:

Heroes:

Skink Priest
Level 2
Dispel Scroll
125

Saurus Scar Veteran
Cold One
Gambler's Armour
Dawnstone
Great Weapon
Battle Standard Bearer
174


Core:

Saurus Warrior (26)
Full Command

Skink Skirmisher (10)
Javelin & Shield

Skink Skirmisher (10)
Javelin & Shield

Skink Cohort (10)

506

Special:

Stegadon, Sharpened Horns
235

Rare:

Salamander Hunting pack
Salamaner Hunting pack
160


1200 points

This is a very core heavy list, you could easily cut down on the core alone and make room for a bastiladon or a couple of fliers, or some chameleon skinks.

I have downgraded your old blood to a scar vet, because he can carry a BSB and is, in my opinion, a better value choice.
