First thing I see is 2 diadem's of power. It's illegal to take the same item twice.

Krokigar with skinks are a bad idea as well. I'll let somebody else with more patience disect the rest!

Lord-
Tehenhauin
EoTg

I would highly recommend taking a different lord. For the number of high wounds creatures and war machines in the Skaven army it might be wise to take a Carnosaur for those D3 wounds. I would just recommend taking some other lord. 250 pts for a squishy lord is really not worth it.

Heroes-
Scar Vet
Great Weapon
Hide of the Cold Ones

His build is based off your lord choice, but I would recommend putting him on a Cold One. That increases his survivability and the fear would be great against Skaven.

Skink Sharman-
Diadem of Power
Rod of the Storm

Put this one on the EoTG and give him the Plaque of Tepok and the Wardrums. Useful for any fleeing you may have.

Skink Sharman-
Dispel Scroll
Blood Statuette of Spite

Give this on the Cloak of Feathers and the Diadem. That will give you a maneuverable source of dispel dice.

Skink/Kroxigors
16 Skinks
2 Kroxigors
Full Command

I would say keep these. They might be useful against Skaven. The Skinks may not die super quickly in this case.

Saurus Warriors
Full Command
Spears

Saurus Warriors
Full Command
Spears

How many of them are there? I would recommend a couple units of 12 with spears and no command or maybe just a musician. High number of attacks against Skaven is awesome.

Skink Skirmisher
10 Blowpiper

Good choice. Maybe get in another unit.

Cold One Cavalry
10 Saurus
Full Command

Ten is too big of a unit. 7 is probably the best, with 6 if the Scar-vet is on a cold one. Skaven can flee and set up great countercharges, so lots of point in one basket is a bad idea.

I would add so Terradons for redirecting and maybe some ranked Skinks also. Skaven will have lots of ways to redirect charges with Slaves, so I would choose your charges wisely. With Skaven you need to roll up one flank and just throw redirecters at the other. Any big warmachines could be dealt with through the Carnosaur magic or a Stegadon, but you need to play a little conservatively against Skaven to win.
