8th Ed. Vanilla Triple Monster 2500 Points

[PapaG]

Hi! I am new to Lizardmen and am still feeling them out. To help me decide if I'm going to run them, I'll be getting in at least one 2500 point game this weekend. The list I wrote is kind of sadly generic, but maybe the Carnosaur at least makes it a little unique...

2500 Points

Lords
Slann, BSB, Dispel Scroll, Focus of Mystery

Heroes
Scar-Veteran, Armour of Destiny, Carnosaur, Bloodroar

Ancient Stegadon, Sharpened Horns

It's kind of a balanced version of a monster-mash. A reasonable amount of infantry and a reasonable amount of monsters. I took the Ripperdactyles over Terradon Riders because they both can hunt war machines just fine, but the Rippers have the versatility to butt-rape two targeted units (with support).

I'm not 100% sold on the Carnosaur, however. I've heard mixed reviews of him. Do you feel that there are any interesting options I could put in if he was taken out? The only think I don't REALLY want to do is do the Bastiladon and double Priest caddy setup. That's way too generic for my taste. I need SOME flavor
Or am I mistaken about how good he is? Do you think that he fits into and compliments the list well? Thanks for your time!

This is a solid Traditional/Monster Mash style army. Rippers and Carnosaurs are a good combination.

Note, I had to edit out your individual points costs, please review the rules posted at the top of this sub-forum. We have to enforce GW's rules on this or suffer their legal team's wrath
