i have been playing my skink army now and i love stegadons. the only problem im having is which set up to use with them.
I use two of them and not sure if i want to use 1 regular stegadon and 1 ancient or use the ancient as the mount for my skin priest?
which do you guys think works best or have seen being used the best.
any opinions would be great on the matter.
Thanks so much

As a previous Steggie user, I highly recommend 2 Engine of the Gods. Create that bubble save until you get in close and then Burning Alignment once you have charged in there. Wash, rinse, repeat.

With the new rules though, if I understand them correctly, you get your character and stegy squished when hit by a cannon or something. Not sure I would put that many points into characters. I've been recommended by lizzie players against taking the Engine due to this.
I personally like 2 Special choices, with the bolt throwers. Cheapest, which gives you points to spend with other goodies elsewhere.

i know cannons can crush them now but i have not had any problems with them because with the str 6 thunder stomp for the ancient it really packs a punch and with skirmishers they really do good sniping warmachines
i actually used one as an ancient and one as a regular and they did very well.. they one did die but people get so scared seeing more then one on the table that they forgot about the 4 units of blow pipes and the camo skinks coming their way.
