General plan is to use the Lords of Space and Time to launch a pair of the Dread Saurians up the field in the first turn to sink into combat as soon as possible. The third Saurian approaches with the Skinks rendering them entirely immune to battleshock. The Slaan utilises the palisade to try and create an unassasilable position terrain dependant and sets to work churning through summoning points whilst the Starpriest uses his venom staff to buff one of the launched Saurians bite from a cool 6 into a lethal 12 damage potentially (6's to wound cause double damage)

That sounds terrifying. But that also sounds terrifying for your bank account.

On second thought I looked at their warscroll, that would be quite easy to counter and wouldn’t be competitive at all. A  cannon shot to each saurian would limit their damage significantly if you didn’t get first turn.

The Saurian is a terrifying prospect no doubt but the minute you focus fire power into it with any rend it loses effectiveness. If you came up against an artillery or shooting heavy army I think you'd be in trouble.

That's $690 for 3 easy-to-target models. I'd try it with some cheap dinosaur model kits or rubber dinos first.
