I usually take a unit of both, and I'd always take the camo skinks as my first choice. But they both fill slightly different roles. The skinks...
For me, it's the lore attribute that pulls me to Life more often than not. Being able to heal 1 wound every time a spell is cast is just too huge...
Well, that should help out a bit. :) As for cavalry, I wouldn't get any more unless you're playing larger games imo. Or at least try them out...
Yes. Why?
Uh.... thanks? o_O
The banner only forces you to pass a Ld test in order to march within 12". Shouldn't be much of a problem to pass for Lizardmen (just checking...
The spears aren't optional on our cavalry iirc. They have them.
*That's not quite right; He can still cast spells. He still gives Inspiring Presence and BSB re-rolls to other units. AFAIK there's not much of a...
Or just pay a few extra points and take a Scar-vet. The only real reasons to take a Skink Chief over a Scar-vet are the War Spear or a...
Slann can't take the Skaven Pelt Banner - It's a Skink only item Terror on your Temple Guard is not as useful these days as it only forces a...
If they've banned Cupped hands and Becalming I'd take Feedback Scroll and Bane Head just out of spite :) EDIT: Just wondering why the Skink...
If I take any I usually take 11 + Scar-vet with crown of command. With their 2+ save they can take some punishment in close combat, but I find...
Would love to see a box of 3 Kroxigors for £30 in resin, like they've done for Treekin and Ushababababati. Would definitely get some of them...
I only ever really use one on a Terradon with Staff of the Lost Sun and Bane Head. Unlike Arli I've had some luck with mine and killed a number of...
I usually run mine solo, in a group of 6-8. Never had much success with the mixed skink/krox unit, skinks just die too quickly in close combat....
Updated Gar'Kek, my Krox special character. Done a bit more play testing with this one recently, and have made a few changes; Nerfed the Miasma...
I rarely run a normal Steg. It's always worth paying the few points extra and take an Ancient. That extra point of strength applies not only to...
It's a unique situation with the Slann being both the General and the BSB. If he takes the banner we get; The unit/model taking the banner...
Things I'd like to see: Chakax to not have Always Strikes Last (so he gets to strike first regardless, as it should be), and a points reduction....
Yeah, would be nice, but it's "is an augment spell that is cast upon the Wizard and his unit (if any)"
