Ok theres the lists anything i should change/tweak to make it better ready for the match? and what list will probably do best thanks alot.

The both look alright I suppose in my limited knowlege of 8th fantasy. only question is what is the point of the captain in full plate and on a horse? he doesnt have anything else on him like a shield of lance

Just had spare points was going to have an engineer but against lizardmen im going to deploy all my warmachines far apart because of those sneaky chameleons and my engineer would be dead 1st turn, so kinda just threw him in.

mortars aren't going to be tragically great against lizardmen. Elves sure, saurus not so much.

Should of said im using death the -1 tougness/strength usually helps with that.

I foresee most players taking Death this edition.

With my empire i really like death as i can weaken the enemy to make artillery more effective and lower leadership for panick tests and its got a very nice damage spell to go with it.
