2500 point Lizardmen army

No flyers?

Skinks, how are they armed?

Cold ones, sure spears cost a lot of points but the +1S has to be worth it surely?

Why the sword of swift slaying? It appears to me you wish him not to be hit, his survivability may be better if you took fencers blades instead.

I get why the Cohort but the rules pertaining to this unit makes it something to stay away from combat rather than in it. My opinion, save yourself 100 points, ditch the Krox - or make a separate unit instead.

Lol, the thought did cross my mind! But as you say, that would just become chaff fodder. But if that's what the people want, I'll give it to them!!!

No, flyers this list. They've really never done all that much for me. I suppose the goal of this army will be primarily to get my Cold One units into favorable match-ups. With as much chaff, and support fire that I'll be laying down, I should be able to do that for the most part by turn 2. I suppose that if I really need to start dealing with artillery or a wizard bunker, then I'll try things like the Comet, Lightening Bolts, etc. and then start moving Skinks up to try and get off a few poisoned shots at them.

As far as giving them ALL spears, I could do that, but I'd have to drop something. Probably the Salamander, because that's approximately what it'd cost.

I usually go more defensive and give my Skinks Lustrian javelins, but now that you mention it, Greg, Blowpipes might be better on all those small teams. I'll keep the Javelins on the Cohort though.

I took the SoSS to counter rerolls from any elves I may face, and to give him a jump on other opponents. With WS4, S4, I6, and A3, he's a pretty good character. Most opponent's would already be only hitting him on rolls of 4, 5's with the Glittering Scales, and no rerolls for ASF opponents. And if he gets to attack first, hopefully he'll be able to get the jump on killing them first. If I took the Fencer's Blades, then I'd have to drop the Glittering Scales, and that still wouldn't stop ASF opponents from hitting me first. (I6 is still pretty good.) That's the theory anyway. Maybe it'll work, maybe not. That why we play though!

As far as the Cohort goes, I just like 'em! They've always worked quite well for me in the past, and it's a stout bunker for Tetto'eko. If someone did manage to get through to them, then they'd still have quite a hard-fought battle on their hands. (And the Lore of Beasts works awesome one them!)

Thanks for the input and thoughts guys! Keep 'em comin'!

Typically, Javelins ARE the better way to go with Skinks, but sometimes, when you need the sheer volume of shots, Blowpipes can be the answer. IMO.

Glad you've gotten into L-men! Nice to have another player here!
