Whats the best way to kill them? He also run a Skull of Katan as well, so magic is a bad joke.

I was thinking about using Ripperdactyls to snipe the Sorcerer(who is in a Warshrine). I use Lore of Metal on my Loremaster Slann to do the Sig. Spell on the 20+.

I have no idea what to do otherwise....... I'm not sure if Temple Guard will be enough to brunt the charge of even 3 'Crushers.

Any help would be great.

Thanks,

I have a Ancient Stegadon w/ All upgrades, so I will try that. Would using Temple Guard as a roadblock and flank charging w/ Ripperdactyls and the Stegadon be sound?

Metal magic. Threaten with searing doom but aim to get plague of rust off. Glittering scales will give the TG a 2+ AS. Back them with a beasts priest.

Give the TG the razor std. Even SC have to pay attention to -3 AS.

Finally load up un cowboy scar vets with GW. They will tear the sc up. ]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/545153/5930843.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/545153/5930843.page GMT How to crush the SkullCrusher-star w/ Lizardmen? str. and enchanted shield. Charge him in and with 9 s7-8 attacks should do well.

That involves using Temple Guard, so no. Honestly, a unit like that is so expensive, redirecting it with skinks and blasting it with the boosted Metal Sig is the best thing. It just becomes a liability then. And skinks are cheap enough, that you can use the big blocks to crush the rest of his army.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/545153/5930990.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/545153/5930990.page GMT How to crush the SkullCrusher-star w/ Lizardmen?

This.

And Carnisaur.

Use High Magic to get Hand of Glory on your guys and give +D3 WS and Init. That way the Carnisaur goes first, though not before the riders. Walk between worlds will turn the target Ethereal and only the Behemoths will be able to hit--unless they have ensorcelled weapons, which they probably do.

Just straight Kroxigor can give them a run for their money. Mostly by being cheaper and super strong. If you had the same points in Krox as he had in Skullcrushers, it would be a close fight I think. That's like 7-8 Krox. In the supporting rank you will be able to pass in all 3 attacks of the Krox and he can only pass the rider's attacks. So I think it would be 8 attacks for him and 9 attacks for you. He has a better chance to hit by 1 and you are down 1 to hit. Anyway, it's pretty close in a straight slugfight.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/545153/5931046.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/545153/5931046.page GMT How to crush the SkullCrusher-star w/ Lizardmen?

It only turns them ethereal until the end of the same magic phase.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/545153/5931499.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/545153/5931499.page GMT How to crush the SkullCrusher-star w/ Lizardmen? http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/545153/5931666.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/545153/5931666.page GMT How to crush the SkullCrusher-star w/ Lizardmen?
Try Old Blood, Coldone, Armor of Destiny, dawn stone, great weapon.
He's hit on 4's, wounded on 4's, saves on 3+, re-rolls to save on 3+, and then has a 4+ ward.
Being 25mm wide, only 2 touch, with 2 supporting.
That's 12 S5 attacks from the riders, and 4 S5 attacks from the mounts. On average you'll take a wound every 4 to 5 rounds. You're swinging back hitting 3's, wounding on 2's, and he'll save on 5's. With Predatory hunter, you're averaging ~2 wounds a round.

If you're near the slaan and BSB you're lose by the musician and hold on a 9, on 3 dice, with a re-roll.
The 2nd round of combat strips his rank, and you win combat by 1.
Go with high magic, and heal the old blood.
1+ re-rollable and 4+ ward, on a T5 WS6 model that can't be stomped, and is immune to psych; dishing out 5 S7 attacks with PF will have your chaos opponent posting here with "How do I stop this Old Blood?"
