Overall, I think it's a fantastic army. Plenty of large tough units, strong magic and a hard hitting dominator unit - the Temple Guard, obviously. It's good that you have an Ancient Stegadon to boost the overall strength of your army, as well as protecting your Skink Priest. Wow! Temple Guard sure chew up the points! Is there any way of taking Chakax? Because if you take him in the same unit as your Slann, the enemies are going to get a big surprise. Mind you, a Slann's magic capablility is surprising enough.

Move the BSB to the slann and take the +1 Ld standard.

that should free up enough points to take another salamander.

Holy $hit only one steg!!! Are you insane!? At that point level either bring two monsters or don't bring any, dang cannons grumble grumble...

Hoverboy does have a point, the steg's going to be a big target! Overall the list is hard as a rock but might have trouble with a magic-defense-heavy list, since your only ranged attacks other than magic and the little skinks are 2 salamanders, and your saurus are slow...

Only 2 army's have a lot of war machines so I am not to worried about the Stegadon and only 2 list can do very heavy magic defense both are Dwarfs and Empire.2 out of 16 army's but you guys are right not much I can do I can bring 3 Stegadons and if playing one of those armys they will be gone by turn 3."Move the BSB to the slann and take the +1 Ld standard.

Aerethan I'm not sure what you mean by that?

I mean don't take a scar vet as a BSB. Give that option to the slann and then give him the 15pt banner that increases his units Ld by 1. This makes him and his guard Ld10 as well as any unit within 12". It's a unique combo that is pretty strong for lizardmen.

With the points you save by not taking the scar veteran, you can take a second salamander.

It's 18 inches, isn't it? Since the Slann counts as a large target, right? Or am I mis-reading something? I'm new to WHFB, so it wouldn't shock me if I'm missing something.

No he counts as a large target only when casting, and for nothing else.
