One of two armies I'm debating building as I return to the game. Trying for balance. Tough enough to deal with whatever's thrown at me, but not ott.

415 - Slaan: Full lore, Extra dice. Bane Head, 2 Scrolls.
435 - Priest: Level 2, Engine of the Gods, Wardrums, Plaque of Tepok.
126 - Vet: Great weapon, Shield, Light armour. Charm of the Jaguar warrior.

183 - 15 Saurus: Musician, Standard.

9 Power, 1 Bound, bonus dice.
6 dispel.

Thoughts?

Powerful build, though not excessive by new lizard standards. I only wonder at your Slaan's survivability, but smart playing and directed firepower should keep him and his saurus buddies around. I feel like a magic weapon on the scarvet might help (drop Tepok for VotFF?), and a BSB on the Slaan is also nice, but it's a tight list as is.

- Salvage

This list looks good and Definitely balanced

Would you consider dropping the engine of the gods with priest, some of the skins, one terradon squad to add in temple guard (protect the slaan, immune to psychology), upgrade to ancient steg, skink priest and 5x cold ones (fear causing, cheaper then steg).

Just thinking about how I would build the list...

I'd consider trimming stuff to add BSB to the Slaan. I'd probably ditch the Wardrums to do that.

And.. no. There's no way I'd drop the Engine. Engines are awesome and I'd prefer to add a second one that drop the first. But I can't spend like 1200pts+ in leadership alone.

Any other suggestions?
