I voted A because I think it will be a strong and competative army that can deal with everything, while still not succumbing to the boredom that can arise when you play too few different units. However I would make him an ancient by removing some champions and such simply because I think the strength, toughness and slowness of the ancient is everything that I want a Steg to be :)
 
I like ancient stegadons, I dont know if I like them 40 points more but the problem is where would you remove the points. I can see:

Potion of Strength, Ironcurse Icon, Saurus Champion this leaves me 18 points short, I could cut 2 chamo skinks and reduce it to a single unit of 8 but the 2 units have done wonders against gunlines.
 
Only 4 votes (and mine) over 2 days? Was expecting more like 20 when it didn't have to be written answer =(
 
Having just come back from the Throne of Skulls and getting position 22nd out of 148 this is my opinion.
First off I say list B.

The current meta i played against (1 HPA in skaven, Grave Guard Deathstar, Teclis, Marauder hordes, Shadow and death lores prevailent)

So problems with list A.

One stegadon will die. two is survive ability
Saurus unit to fragile to risk in one block (pit of shades)

Oh and banner of flame is a must against those bloody Grave guard....

second list i prefer (especially with light) and see no problems what so ever. :D

I will write up my tourney exp tomorrow and my hint helpers and tips for it. As well as the current UK meta, which Im sure people will enjoy :D

Oh and on the tournement I got best Delf player as well....and i have never played Delfs in 14 years of hobby!!!! Result!
haha
