8th Ed. Playing a game with the new % rules tonight

[NexS1]

I'll be playing my first game with the new percentage rules tonight.


I've been opposed to this change from the moment i've heard wind of it. But now that it's official and legal for chaos to have even more cheese, i figured i'll try my hand.

So far, I haven't decided yet whether I want to play LM or HE, but here are the prospective lists.

Lizards:
oldblood - carno(swiftstride and bloodroar), great weapon, steg helm, dawnstone
slann - bsb (+1LD) channel combo, reroll dispel, egg
chakax

25 saurus - command
4x 10 skirmishers
25 temple guard - command, +1 movement banner
ancient steg - eotg, dev charge

High Elves:
prince - star dragon, 2+/4++/2++fire, longbow, star lance (and g.weapon for 2n'd round), other trick shard
mage - lv2, 2+ ward (1'st wound), channel staff
bsb - horse, 1+/1+/6++, pot of str

3x 10 archers - muso
2x 5 reavers - spears/bows, muso
12 silverhelms - command, shields
10 Dragon princes - command, BotWD(2++ vs magical attacks, dragons are stubborn 12")
tiranoc chariot (horse)
2x RBT
2x Eagle

I'm leaning toward elves, because I haven't played a dragon in a good, long time... but slann and carno oldblood sounds fun...

Against Chaos, I would go with the Lizards. Though the dragon is very, very tempting.

I think i'm leaning toward HE. I haven't played a good, hard HE list in a long while. And the dragon has only been used as a flamespyre sub in the past 12 months so it's about time he got a dust-off!
