Hey guys i'm working on my first 1000pts army list to play with some fiends. I wanted a shadowstrike starhost because i realy like it and filled the rest of the list with saurus. Any tips or suggestions are welcome. The list so far: Allegiance: Seraphon Saurus oldblood 120 -general -disciplined fury -blade of realities Scar ver on cold one 100 -light of draco 5 saurus knights 100 Shadowstrike starhost 170 Skink starpriest 80 -prysm of amynthok 30 skinks 180 5 chameleons 120 3 terradons 120 Total 990
I just played a 1k Shadowstrike tonight. General Scar Vet on Cold One 100 Thickly Scaled Hide Coronal Shield Battalion Shadowstrike 170 Skink Starpriest 80 Incandescent Retrices 3x Ripperdactyl's 140 40x skinks 200 10x skinks 60 Behemoths Stegadon 240 990/1000 Played knife to the heart against SCE. tp'd 40 skinks in first turn with rippers. Then Stegadon second turn with D6 extra moment after tp. Did really well but my opponent had 440 points worth of Retributors and a hero in the celestial realms that he couldn't roll to get them in. We called it as a major victory for me at turn three when he failed again to get the Retributors in to try and take my objective. Overall 40 skinks dropped in his face were excellent. Shadowstrike abilities were excellent. Rippers were also excellent. Stegadon -3 rend was brutal on the charge in after tp. Scar vet on cold one did nothing but deny deep strike. 10 skinks did well holding my objective and denying his deep strike also.
Edit: disregard my earlier statement I cannot read it seems. ... perhaps not the greatest of all lists but I played similar ones and won with them. So yeah that could work.
