The Cupped Hands of the Old Ones
This item costs 45pts and allows my slann, on a roll of 2+, to redirect his miscast at any enemy wizard in LOS.
Power Scroll
This item costs 35pts and allows my slann cast with irresistable force on any roll of a double but I still miscast aswell.
Now hold hands you two becasue this is gona be fun!
Using these two items in conjuction almost guarantees hurt for your enemy and happiness for you. Even if there is no enemy wizard your slann is ignoring the miscast on a 2+.
In a recent game vs Vampire counts i relished as i got the first turn, rolled up 8 dice for winds, popped power scroll rolled 6 dice for 21+ Purple sun and managed two 4's. Being a low I army my opponent pretty much gave up then and there. When i rolled the artillery dice to see how far it went i came up with a 10, so 30" from one side of his army to the other wiping out a horde (40) of skeletons in the process.*
Conflict has been increased to 1600pts so I will definantly be including this combo in my army. Im also gona put in a stegadon with engine just for giggles.
I shall post the official list once I have finished tweaking.
* this was not the only casualty but probably the most hilarious at the time.

Lizards
Over over the past two Thursays I have taken my lizards down to my LGS to have some games.
So far i have lost 2/2.
The first game I can expressly say was not my fault. I was all geared up for a 1500pts match with a Slann w/ loremaster of death, power scroll and cupped hands (you can see where thats going >.>) and my opponent says he only has time for a 750pts match. Rather then find someone else i jumped on board and got an ass handing. Stupid knights of chaos with their awesome armour saves and my lack of magic :(
Next match last night was against Ogres. never played ogres, dont want to again. they are outdated but sooo powerful. Despite my best attempts my skinks decided to roll doubles and because of some item he had (cant remember it right now) ANY doubles were a miscast on his table. This result in both my skink priests vomiting up their internal organs and falling over. This all happened before his ogres pummelled my skinks.
Just on a side note here. How can my skink block with his shield a weapon twice the size of him?
Any way, i got rolled both times. Im not going to use the dual skink priest list in the up-coming tourney because i think a Slaan with loremaster life is going to give me better results.
The planned list it:
1250pts (I know right...)
Slann with loremaster life and forbidden rod
20 Temple guard with full command
20 saurus warriors with full command
20 saurus warriors with full command
15 skinks with javelin and shield
Any comments on the list would be nice :)
