Seems like a nice list. Depends on what your casual oppents like to field.
In my area its all Heavy-magic lists. So 1 priest wouldn't cut it vs Chaos or VC magic.
That is why I will probably go for a cheap slann version with an extra skink and rest into close combat.
Your list is heavy in combat so give it a try and tell us how it goes.
 
I agree with Gannon, if you whant a balanced list, you need more magic or at least anti magic...
 
Yeah, I rewrote the list based off of the example I wrote for Orangecoke:

HEROES: 598
Slann- Divine plaque of protection, Cube of Darkness, Dispel Scroll- 370
Scar-Vet- Light armor, BSB, Talisman of Protection- 130
Chief- Light Armor, shield, Extra hand weapon, cloak of feathers, Venom of the fire fly frog- 98

TROOPS: 676
19 Saurus- Command, spears- 258
20 SAurus- Music, standard, spear- 258
10 Skirmishers- Javelins- 80
10 Skirmishers- Javelins- 80

SPECIAL: 451
16 Temple Guard- command, Sun Standard of Chotec- 331
4 Terridons- 120

RARE: 275
Stegadon Ancient- 275

TOTAL: 2,000
Models: 83

Power Dice: 6
Dispel Dice: 5 + cube + scroll


I like this one allot more. Heavier offensive magic with more punch in CC. And The Discipline I'd be taking is Focused Rumination. Best Part is I have almost all the models I need to field it. Just need Temple Guard, Terridons, and the Stegi.
 
Yeah, I think this list got alot more diversity in fighting different opponent! Nice work!
 
I see your using the FSoD (Flying Skink of Doom). I'm guessing his role is to kill wizards, mrach block and generally being a nuisance.

I recommend the TSoD (Terradon Skink of Doom). A terradon is around 30 points, and gives you the same as a cloak but you get +1 to AS (for cavalry) and also gives you points for more magic items. So if your going for CC TSoD you can give him Dagger of Sotek and Enchanted Shield or give him Sword of Battle oand enchanted shield. I think the Terradon means that the Cloak of Feathers will only be for Telepathy Priests.

But I dont know points cost and you would have to buy another Terradon model (Tiktakto looks SWEEEET)
 
oh, I've written a couple army ideas with the TSoD, they're pretty nice. This guys a sacrifice character, fly in assassinate mages in units, knock out war machine crews, march block, etc. As for the +1 AS for the terridon, unless they changed it with 7th ed. fliers don't get the +1 AS.

WRB pg 69
Flyers > Units of Flyers > Flying Cavalry
"... each model has a unit strength of 2 and the riders get a +1 armour save, as normal for cavalry."
 
Your latest lists looks really nice. A list that could deal with almost anything on any level.
On 2250 points I would almost use the same list but with a terradon chief and maybe a unit of CoR with a scar-vet in it. A stegadon is a nice Hammer unit but will get alot and alot of attention of the enemy to be sure it doesn't get a charge. Meanwhile they forget the "stupid" CoR that can flank a unit who's stuck into combat with a big saurus line.

Your list looks pretty the same like the one I'll be testing very soon.
I have high hopes for lists like this :)
