8th Ed. thoughts on a 1200pt list

[Ninjagosplat]

Hey all,
I'm writing a 1200 point list with escalation in mind, just need help with the finer details we' will be able to add to what we have in this list but not subtract anything so here goes .

Heroes:

Saurus Scar Veteran:
General, Great Weapon
Magic Items-Armour of Destiny

Skink Priest: Lore of Heavens, Wizard Level 1

Skink Priest:Lore of Beasts, Wizard Level 1
Magic Items-Dispel Scroll


Core:

Saurus Warriors: Musician, Spawn Leader, Standard Bearer
30x Saurus Warrior w/ spears

Saurus Warriors: Musician, Spawn Leader, Standard Bearer
26x Saurus Warrior w/ spears

10x Skink Skirmishers x2

Special:

7x Chameleon Skinks

any help with ironing this out will be great thanks again
just took the light armor off of the scar vet as the magic one makes it redundant

Tough to say without knowing what kind of opponents you'll have but you might have issues early on in the escalation if someone brings some tough monster cav unit. The second saurus unit might not be too useful until 2000+ pts. so I might drop them for an ancient steg perhaps.

Nice for a 1200 point army maybe trash the Musician's there worse than having an extra worrier.


Otherwise very nice

5x Chameleon

Only things I would change is Talisman and Enchanted shield into just armor of destiny. Same armor/ward save and it wont conflict with the great weapon in combat. Might drop the engine and just keep regular ancient steg and give cube/scroll to your priests with the extra points. Any extra points I'd put towards more chameleon skinks as it looks like you'll be facing a few war machines.
