    I just got this off eBay:

    88 skinks w/ bows
    42 warriors w/ clubs
    1 old blood on foot

    I am also going to be getting a bastilodon.

    So far this is my whole collection.

    I would like advice on how to get 1500 points from here, I would also quite like a skink themed army list.

    Here's a list I made:

    Old blood - 100 or skink priest -100
    20 warriors w/ clubs -200
    20 warriors w/ clubs -20
    30 skinks w/ bows - 240
    30 skinks w/ bows - 240
    Bastilodon with crystal - 300
    5 chameleon skinks - 120
    Skink star priest - 100

    OK, for future developments, every army should have some magic support, so take a Starpriest, only then you can afford the priest.
    You also need a general: if you want to push the skinks' side, convert a hero into a skink chief
    Bastiladon as anvil and shooting is perfect, but also a Stegadon could work (not as anvil): it's fast and the skink Alpha will butt other skinks
    chama won't fail you
    you you want more shooting, a couple of salamanders are always good.

    as for your list... i don't know, mixing warriors and skinks fill you with battlelines, and you lose points for more precious units.
    Personally, I'd go full skinks, sacrificing those 200 pts of warriors for a skink chief and a second bastiladon, and (at that point), of course you can pick both the starpriest and the priest: the buffed bastiladons with rerollable saves will shoot as hell, acting as solid fortress, with the skinks that pepper the enemy with raining darts, while chamas take objectives.


    If you go for saurus warriors, then it's the opposite: sacrifice the skinks (not the chama ones, neither the priest/s!), and insert a sunblood (or a scarvet on carno)

    Skink Chief first. Then Rippers. Get a Shadowstrike going, then find a starseer and build a Heavenswatch starhost. My big advice for skink players !

    I'm not Bowser, but I suppose you don't mind... :p

    Heavenswatch Starhost!

    (it's basically a mainly skinks army, with a mix of some special abilities from Shadowstrike and Thunderquake)
