So just to give overview, its about buffing waves of skinks with mortal wounds and +1 to hit, then moving or teleporting and picking your targets.

Summoning is just the occasional unit of 10 skinks for objectives or chaff.

Salamanders target the really tough stuff.

Then 50/50 the unit buffed can shoot any chargers and run away before they fight.

Lots of bodies on the board for objectives.

Hero missions are teh tough ones, but the shooting shot remove any standing on them easily enough, and then you clean up late game and score

I'm new to Seraphon (been waiting for the tome for a while) and I'm really inclined to try this type of playstyle. I just can't help but to feel a bit hestitant to buy and build towards this list prior to the FAQ due to how strong the Serpent Staff ability is on Skinks. Do you think there is any chance it might be FAQ'd to melee damage only?

Honestly no idea, FAQ are generally 2 weeks post book, so if you are worried, its not long to wait
