8th Ed. Seeking advice: Dual Tournament 2x1200... Help?

Hello.

Me and My friend will participate in a Tournament with quite funny rules. The rules are:
- No Lords
- Max 4 warmachines/template weapons per team
- Max 2 of the same unit types (including Heros)
- Max 4 magic levels per team
- All Rare Choices are 0-1
- No ultimate spells (no "6" spells)
- You cannont double common magic items
- All the poitns that you don't spend on your army, your opponent will get as victory points.

I've came up with 2 Army rosters, And I'd like to know which do You prefer, and maybe what would you change. My ally will be an empire player, and a little request, Does any one know how the new empire works? We are stuck and can't figure out a good army All we know that We will have a Warrior priest, a fire mage, and an master Engineer with a Hellblaster.


My lists:

1 Skink Priest
General; Magic Level 2; Lore of Heaven
Cube of Darkness

1 Saurus Scar-Veteran
Light Armour; Battle Standard
Burning Blade of Chotec
Dragonhelm
Seed of Rebirth
Potion of Speed

25 Saurus Warriors
Shield; Standard; Musician
1 Champion

12 Skink Skirmishers
Blowpipe

12 Skink Skirmishers

6 Chameleon Skinks

2 Salamander Hunting Packs
6 Skink Handlers

Models in Army: 91

Total Army Cost: 1200.0

Second idea:


Unnamed1200 Pts - Lizardmen Army

1 Skink Priest
General; Magic Level 2; Lore of Heaven
Cube of Darkness

1 Saurus Scar-Veteran
Light Armour; Battle Standard
Burning Blade of Chotec
Dragonhelm
Seed of Rebirth
Potion of Speed

10 Skink Skirmishers
Blowpipe

10 Skink Skirmishers
Blowpipe

20 Skinks
Javelin; Shield; Musician
2 Kroxigors
Great Weapon

19 Saurus Warriors
Shield; Standard; Musician
1 Champion

6 Chameleon Skinks
Blowpipe

6 Chameleon Skinks

2 Salamander Hunting Packs
6 Skink Handlers

Models in Army: 81

Basicly the diffrence is that the second list has less Saurus and have Kroxigors in a large kohort unit. I've took the cube so my ally can take the Dispel Scroll, thuss improvig our animagic potential

Being a fan of skrox units, I like the second list. Interesting rules also.

Thank you!

The Shop wan't the Tournament to be more tacticall than just "Who gets to cast Dwellers/Pit/PurpleSun/Bironas with 6 PD wins!!"
To Be honest My Army will be dependant of my allies army. The First option Is that I will be in charge of bending charges and annoying opponents, while My colleques Cannons and Hellblasters... blast the enemy
The second one will be If he decides to go more aggresive, (Stank maybe, some knights.)
