7th Ed. saurus cav

Speaking of Stupidity, for those mathhammer curious, assuming no errors on calculating the odds, on a Cold Blooded Leadership test of 7 the probability of success is 0.8000926 or 80% of rolling a 7 or less on 3D6 discarding the highest die. So barring atrocious dice rolling (see my dice rolling as an example of that) you should succeed 4 out of 5 times on your stupidity tests. If your Leadership 8 Saurus Hero joins the unit probability of success is 0.893519 or 89%.

All Saurus have LD8. So you have 89.8% chance (~9/10) of passing scar vet or not. Pretty good when you realise that EVERYTHING in the orc army only "passes" their "stupidity" 83.33% (5/6) of the time.

i have only ever had my cold ones fail stupidty ONCE in all the years ive used them,

and to be honest so M7 isnt the best, but there heavy cav, not light cav
and them causeing fear is a big plus

i was unsure about using them were i could us skinks
but im glad i did,
as well as the oponant wanting to deal with them leaving my saurus to go toe to toe with the weaker Inf such as maurders and a charge from cold one knights if you stick a scar vet in can be outstandingly good,


and movement 7 charge 14 is still good movement

True it doesnt happen often but in the latest battle report stupidity is killing the lizardmen player (cheack it out its the 4000 points vs ogres 1) I hope he finishes writing it soon.
