    so I have my first matchup against dwarves. I took a lot of ideas from a super nice list of RipperDerek.
    I wanted to go with more magic so here it is my list:

    Lizardmen - To Test 1 - [1989pts]

    # Main Force [1989pts]

    ## Characters [820pts]
    Skink Priest [390pts]: Hand Weapon, Light Armour, Wizard Level 2, Battle Magic, Glyph Necklace
    • 1x Ancient Stegadon [255pts]: 5x Skink Crew, Hand Weapon, Javelin and Shield, Great horns, Engine of the Gods
    Slann Mage-Priests [430pts]:
    • 1x Slann Mage-Priest [430pts]: Hand Weapon, Battle Standard Bearer, General, Higher State Of Mind, Wizard Level 4, Lore Familiar, Ruby Ring of Ruin

    ## Core [819pts]
    2x Jungle Swarms [120pts]:
    • 3x Jungle Swarms [40pts]: Hand Weapon
    Saurus Warriors [309pts]: Thrusting Spear, Shieldwall
    • 18x Saurus Warrior [14pts]: Hand Weapon, Heavy Armour, Shield
    • 1x Spawn Leader [7pts]
    • 1x Standard Bearer [7pts]
    • 1x Musician [7pts]
    2x Skink Skirmishers [85pts]: Scouts
    • 15x Skink [5pts]: Hand Weapon, Light Armour, Javelins and Shields
    2x Skink Skirmishers [50pts]:
    • 10x Skink [5pts]: Hand Weapon, Light Armour, Javelins and Shields

    ## Special [350pts]
    2x Bastiladon [175pts]: Thunderous bludgeon, Solar Engine, 3x Skink Crew, Hand Weapon, Javelin and Shield

    The main idea is to keep the jungle swars as protection on the flank and then use the two units of 15 skinks to take out his war machines, the two bastiladons will stay behind outside of dispell range shooting at heavy armour while the stegadon will shoot at less heave armour.

    What do yoy think?
    are there some characteristics of dwarfes I have to keep in mind?

    I guess I'd ask why have it at 1989 when you can add two skinks

    Also I love vanguard for the mar machine hunters

    hello, yes I was missing 10 points that I have added in skinks.
    Why do you prefer vanguard instead of scouts?

    Because you can go and shoot on turn 1,as if you were a scout. Make an additional movement + march and you can already shoot at the enemy. plus you have one more unit to deploy, keeping the big stuff like sauri and Bastiladon at the end.
