Summer Project 2015 army list


To start the month off right here's the army list for my Summer Project, a good chunk of which I want to get done over the course of May. Just a little something to work to, at least to start with, based on the following considerations: (1) what's in the Battalion I already own; (2) what's in the box of miscellaneous stuff Matt sold me; and (3) what looks pretty and I want to paint.

Lords
Saurus Oldblood armed with hand weapon and shield, wearing light armour and the Talisman of Preservation. 205pts
Heroes
Skink Chief armed with hand weapon and shield, wearing light armour. 44pts
Skink Priest, Level 2 Wizard using the Lore of Heavens. 100pts
Skink Priest, Level 1 Wizard with the Lore of Beasts. 65pts
Core
20 Saurus Warriors armed with spears and shields, full command. 250pts
24 Skink Cohort armed with hand weapons, Lustrian javelins and shields, 2 Kroxigor and Skink Brave. 230pts
12 Skink Skirmishers armed with hand weapons and blowpipes, Patrol Leader. 94pts
Special
Bastiladon with Solar Engine and 3 Skink crew. 150 pts
5 Cold One Riders armed with spears and shields, full command. 200pts
1 Stegadon and 5 Skink crew armed with hand weapons, Lustrian javelins and giant bow, Sharpened Horns. 235pts
20 Temple Guard armed with halberds and shields wearing light armour, full command. 310pts
3 Terradon Riders armed with hand weapons, Lustrian javelins and rocks, Sky Leader. 115pts

Total: 1998 points

I think this just about covers all the bases: three rank-and-file infantry units; two fast units; a combat-oriented general; some magical support; a Skink Chief because nothing else would fit in the points; and, most important of all, plenty of the big dinosaurs centrepiece models. What's even better is the Battalion is a huge chunk of it so there's not much more financial outlay to be had (until I inevitably want to expand, of course).
