8th Ed. upcoming local tournament, really need some help

[xisor]

Really struggling to get to 2000 points with what i can have ready in time for a local tournament nect week. A lot of the lists ive seen practising are very nasty with steam tanks and empire gunlines as far as the eye can see. I have a very limited amount of models painted so my list is very hampered but heres what i have so far.

Slann mage priest Zec-Hua (BSB) Rumination,mastery,higher state,cupped hands, plaque of protection (LIGHT)

Scar Vet Pulcut - Gamblers armor,Sword of anti heroes,shield
24 Saurus - HW,shields,standard,musician,champion

Scar Vet Xisor - Sword of striking,glittering scales,ironcurse icon,luckstone,shield
24 Saurus - HW,shields,standard,musician,champion

Skink Chief (to be named) - dagger of sotek,opal amulet,potion of speed, Light armor,shield
21 Skink cohorts - Javs,hw,shields,std,mus
3 Kroxigor - GW

Skink Priest Amon-Jan - Dispel scroll, Curse charm of tepok

6 Chameleon Skinks

Salamander & Extra handler

Comes in at 1989 so i have a few points to play with, i know its not the most competitive list but want to get the best out of the models i will have ready. Only other models i could have painted in time are maybe another 15 saurus i have some old model skinks that i could use as skirmishers. I have a steg but dont want to rush it and thats only way i could have him ready.

I assume those 3 krox are going into your unit of skinks. If so you'd need 3 more skinks if I'm not mistaken for the 1 - 8 ratio. That would put you 4 points over (easy to fix, drop any of the cheap items you have like the pot of speed on the skink chief).

thanks for pointing that out, i have changed my list quite a bit so heres what im taking

Slann Mage Priest Zec-Hua (Light) Rumination,Mastery,Becalming,cupped hands - BSB

Scar Vet Pulcut (feather helm) Gamblers armor, sword of anti heroes, shield
24 Saurus Std,mus,champ - Hw,shields

Scar Vet Xisor Sword of striking, Glitter Scales, ironcurse icon, shield
24 Saurus Std,mus,champ - Hw, shields

Skink Priest Amon Jan (Heavens) Dispel scroll, Charm of the jaguar warrior

21 Skink Cohorts Std,mus - Javelins,hw,shields
2 Kroxigors GW

6 Chameleon Skinks Blowpipes, hw

Salamander & extra handler

10 Skink Skirmishers Blowpipes, Hw

10 Skink Skirmishers Blowpipes, Hw

10 Skink Skirmishers Blowpipes, Hw

works out at exactly 2000 points, the charm of jaguar warrior is so i can keep my skink priest within 18" of the skink and if the slann gets threatened with a charge i can either fly him out of the way or swap places with the skink and get the slann out of harms way, . As always any feedback would be appreciated.

I think 3 unit of 10 skink skirmisher is too much for 2000 game

reasoning behind it is i wanted one unit as a screen in front of my saurus blocks another unit will start on a flank and try and get round the back of his line to pick off any lone characters or warmachines that my chams have yet to kill. and the last unit will be staying at my rear behing the slann just incase of any nasties coming around flank or starting on my table edge.
