?????

Purple Sun - 70

Current total is 1635

Battlescribe says I cannot reinforce anymore than I have, so I would assume I could not put a stack of 3 salamander hunting - 120 packs in this army?

I feel like I need some army to take objs, Knights don't seem to be as effective in starborne, any suggestions on obj takers?

I have not yet worked through items but I am also unsure of how many I can actually take.

The 2x30 skinks use up all of your reinforcement points so you cannot field more than single salamander packs which isn't terrible they just don't take buffs as well and can only teleport one around at a time. For items, you can likely manage a command entourage to get a third item which is nice, we have a lot of good items. You could add 3 single salamanders and should be good to go, the 30 blocks of skinks can take objectives and you can summon 10x skink units for more objective control

Not sure what models you got or if that's a concern for you but, are Saurus Guard a must for you? If not, you could drop them for an Engine of the Gods (265p) and Scarvet on Carnosaur (215p) coming at exactly 2000p. With the EotG you can protect Kroak a bit if you hide him and a Scarnosaur is a nice independent threat, also you get some monster action into your army.

Edit:
Well if there would be a way around 6 leader's right? Sometimes I forget that almost anything is a Leader for us, so scratch that... Still maybe thats just me, but wouldn't a monster be nice in there?

I really like this idea, I wonder if I lose a lot if I drop a priest for a EOG, I def have the models to do this.

Edit: Do you feel like the Starpriest or the priest is more expendable? The more I look at your Idea the more I like it.

I think this might be my option if I want to keep all 4 priest, thank you for your help!

That's a hard choice for sure... Normally I would say drop a Priest but with invocations they got a real powerup, sadly I have no experience with Invocations. So for me I would run double Starpriest but it would be best to test it yourself.
