	~~'''~~Sacred Spawnings~~''': marks~~ of chaos, in my lizardmen? More likely than you think! Units of Warriors and all your Saurus characters can receive 1 or 2 spawnings (3 for an Oldblood) which have a flat cost per unit and move Warriors from Core to Special or Rare, depending on whether you pick one or two spawnings. Characters need the Itzl spawning to pick a mount (basically it's a 5 points tax that also precludes 3-spawning carnosaur riding oldbloods) and can only join units of unmarked Warriors or Warriors who match their spawnings (so a Sotek/Chotec Scar-vet can join units of unmarked, Sotek, Chotec or Sotek/Chotec marker Warriors, but not units of Tepok, ot Sotek/Tepok marked ones).		===Sacred Spawnings===

	*Tzunki: grants Amphibious, +1 Initiative. Subtle. It's CHEAP, the cheapest in fact, and makes you laugh at rivers and marshes, which depending on the map is either a non factor or a game changer. Would be more worth it if other options weren't as strong and we weren't hurting for Rare space already. Also your saurus become teal? 5 points (character) / 10 points (Unit)		*Tzunki: grants Amphibious, +1 Initiative. Subtle.

	*Blessed Mark of the Old Ones: character only, 35 points. Lets you reroll D3 (roll before the battle begins) D6s but bans you from other spawnings and comes with a host of safety nets like one character ONLY per army. Skinks can get it as well though, which makes it attractive on a skink priest to help get rid of a wild 1 on a casting roll. Blessed characters can join whatever unit regardless of spawnings. Also chosen albino Saurus? I wonder where did this end up in later editions...		*Blessed Mark of the Old Ones: character only, 35 points.

Lizard players will be served with extremely powerful mages and great control over the magic phase, and units who make teamwork their greatest strenght.
	Lizardmen are without a doubt one of the most consistent armies ever. They have always been around high tier without being overpowered, always had some powerful gimmick without feeling outrageously cheap, and always had a good chance of winning matches if you knew what you were doing. Their 6th edition incarnation sports a very lean and limited choice of units, but like everything lizardmen, the underlying depth is exceptional.

	Plus you just love visually stunning armies with a vibrant color palette. Lizards are easy to paint for the beginner with their large flat surfaces, but at the same time enjoyable for the expert painter as they offer a great looking canvas to experiment upon.

	A side effect of your Slann's method of spell generation is that you can just cherry pick relevant first spells from any lore.

			'''The Deathstar of Deathstars''' In most cases putting all your eggs in one basket is considered as a bad thing but Lizardmen can propably could succeed in doing it. A second generation Slann who has also the BSB with Totem of Prophecy, surrounded by a big unit of Temple Guard. The Slann has also Cupped Hand of the Old Ones. Now this block will cost about 1000 points at least and losing this block means losing the game. But who and how will be able to seriously harm this? 5+ ward against ranged attacks, stubborn, cold blooded. Also causes fear so fear-outnumber won't be a problem. The Temple Guard hit hard and can withstand much even in combat.
