The idea would be to deploy the large skink unit supported by a stegadon and some salamanders on each side. The skrimishers/chameleons/terradons will harrass and cause havoc.

I put as much protective gear as possible on the chiefs however they are still a bit squishy. I thought about taking the large unit and making 2 smaller units of 24 with 2 kroxs, but I think the larger unit works a bit better.

I like the idea of it. It would be nice to get the stegadon helm on your general, but I know you are fighting with protection too.

 

[Time of Madness]

The steg helm would be nice, but with only a 4+ save my skink general will die rather quickly. With only 500pts to spend on heros I'm really limited with what I can do. I'd love to have an engine of the gods, but I wouldn't be able to fit any other characters in. Unfortunately at the moment the 3 on foot characters are my best option (I think).
