I don't play lizards so idk if there is a special rule for them that's different from other armies but if your BSB takes a magic banner (the Slann with Standard of Discipline) they can't take any other magic items, least I believe that's right.

Again I don't play lizards so idk if ur army has a special rule changing this from other armies.

[X'Nork]

Slann may take magic items and banner. As far as I know he is also the only character that can be both a general and a BSB.

Grimgor Ironhide (spelling?) from the O&G army can be the general and is the mandatory BSB holder if he's on the table. Friend of mine just picked him up

Think thats Gorbad Ironclaw. Thats a special character though

[alfyb623]

Yeah that one. lol. It's real early in the day for me

I'll try to be as helpful as I can.

Lords 470 pts
1 Slann General, BSB, Lore of Life
Sceptre of Stability (Increase dispel by D6 – one use)
Obsidian Trinket (MR1)
Ruby Ring of Ruin (Bound spell, Fireball)
Standard of Discipline (+1 LD)
Focus of Mystery (Loremaster)
Higher State of Consciousness (Immune to non-magic attacks)
The Focused Rumination (+1 PD per spell)

I think you can get away with dropping a few things off your slann, he's a lot of invested points as is, so stick with the bear minimum if possible, otherwise dispel scroll or cupped hands can be good as well.

Heroes 158 pts
1 Saurus Scar-Veteran, LA, Shield, Cold One
Burning Blade of Chotec (Flaming attacks, -2 AS)
Dawnstone (Re-roll failed AS)

This guy is going to get torn apart by a good cannon shot, with only an armor save to back him up, he's not long for this world. He is just as useful bunkering inside one of your saurus blocks.

Core 658 pts
24 Saurus Warriors FC
24 Saurus Warriors FC

Drop the unit champs unless your slann is sitting inside this unit, your paying a lot for an extra attack, why not just buy another model for 2 extra attacks instead? Also if you can find the points somewhere, up the size of these units, 24 seems to small for this points level.

10 Skink Skirmishers, blowpipes


Special 388 pts
4 Kroxigor

I've never been a fan of kroxs myself, I always find I have better things to invest my points in, but then again I can be pretty one dimensional sometimes .

10 Chameleon Skinks
6 Chameleon Skinks

Split up your chameleon skinks in 2 units of 5, you can cover more this way.

Rare 300pts
2 Salamander Hunting Pack
2 Salamander Hunting Pack

Get the extra handlers for this unit, it's worth the points as it will save you from a panic test after 1 causality.

Hope I could help, best of luck!

Good advice for the most part Noma. But I don't understand this last bit. Skinks have no bearing on panic tests.

My original plan was running the Slann in one saurus block and the SV in the other. Was thinking about dropping the Ruby Ring and the Obsidian Trinket in favor of the Crown of Command.

Right... Good point... Dropping Cold One.

How large do you find saurus blocks need to be at this point level to be effective? I was hoping to get away with 24 because of lore of life. To be honest I usualy run with a shadow slann, dont got too much experience with the life slann.

I agree, they never seem to live up to their potential. My experience has allways been that if you lose one or two models they bocome pretty much useless. I was hoping to use life magic to keep them alive, but as I said, dont realy have much experience with life.

If I drop them I need to replace with something. I was thinking razordon, but I can only get 2 razordon without dropping salamanders. Will 2 Razordon work as a flank protector, or do you need 3 to be effective?

Good point.
