Hello All, Playing a game vs my mates Gitz/Trolls. Looking to take the following list: LEADERS Skink Starpriest (80) Saurus Scar-Veteran on Carnosaur (240) - War Spear UNITS 20 x Skinks (140) - Boltspitters & Star Bucklers 20 x Skinks (140) - Meteoric Javelins & Star Bucklers 3 x Kroxigor (150) - 1 x Moonhammers 3 x Skink Handlers (40) 3 x Razordons (120) BEHEMOTHS Bastiladon (280) - Weapon : Solar Engine I am very new to the game so just built this list around models I have painted. What concerns me a bit I was looking at his army an most of them have loads of wounds and regenerate. I was thinking of using star priest to summon more skinks and possibly my salamanders? I do have the following in reserve/painted if I want to change up the list Loads more Skinks with bolt spitters and Javelins Salamanders x 3 Knights x 5 Warriors x 10 Any feedback and advice? I do have a 2nd getting starter box and Stegadon which I am building as an Engine. Also have a Slann but he seems to expensive for this list.
So I played the above list and by turn two.. I should have just packed up.. between my opponents hot rolls, having bad moon land 'exactly' where he needed it.. making every single charge.. I got tabled. Kroxigors got smacked in one combat turn - didn't even get to swing Carnasaur lasted 3 rounds engaged - did not land anything worthwhile Razadorns did ok though he did target my handlers.. right away Bastiladon last a few rounds but did not do much. What I got out of this defeat: Bolt Spitter Skinks is where it's at.. they didn't do a lot of damage but they tied up a few units. Javelin Skinks - I should green stuff the javelins to bolt spitters.. Skink Star Priest - did not do much. Did get surrounded by those hopping squigs and got smacked hard. Third time playing Saurus Scar-Veteran on Carnosaur and 3 times he has not done anything to justify the point cost. Hot tip: don't present your list up front a week before game... :/ And Slann - Slann - Slann - every single list I see him.. no matter the point level always has a Slann.. I have one but not painted - and I don't like to play with grey models.. Looks like I am putting my Engine on hold and painting a slann :/
