New to lizard men and just came back from a healthy break away. Gunna start a lizard men army but see if i can run pure skinks (for now) so for the small points costs, iv tried to make it as fun as po but with it being slightly competitive, tell me what you think, please go easy on me, I'm a little rusty

TBF, unless you get a unit of 6 rippers, they're not worth it. 3-5 just doesn't cut it.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/615439/7208917.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/615439/7208917.page GMT Re:[1200] - Pure Skinks

True though at 1200 points they (either rippers or terradons) would be a good distraction to draw fire away from the steg and bastilidon.

rock 4 terradons instead.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/615439/7208924.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/615439/7208924.page GMT Re:[1200] - Pure Skinks

If you want max efficiency, take 3 terradons. Good cheap chaff, who can drop rocks on war machines and then charge and kill them.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/615439/7208937.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/615439/7208937.page GMT [1200] - Pure Skinks

The chief cannot have the cube for 2 reasons:

1. its arcane and he isn't a wizard
2. a BSB cannot take magical items if he has a magical standard.

i agree with dark, 3 terradons is a good choice.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/615439/7208944.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/615439/7208944.page GMT [1200] - Pure Skinks Saurus are great, but Skink Skirmishers are so cheap and so versatile. Then add in the flyers, big gribblies, and the hunting packs and chameleons, and you really don't need Saurus, Temple Guard, or Cold Ones at all.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/615439/7210437.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/615439/7210437.page GMT Re:[1200] - Pure Skinks

So with taking the cube off the BSB and dropping a skink squad, i had that extra 100 point, so for now iv added in 3 terradon riders. Only thing I'm slightly worried about is not having the dispel scroll, but i don't think its a major issue at 1200 points.

now if i take 2 kroxigors in that block of skinks, can i use the krox's LD instead of the skinks? Or even the chief?

Correct. Which is also why you want krox.
Hell, if you throw the banner of discipline in, you are Ld9 in that block. It's like you have a slann...
