Dodge, frenzy, diving tackle, tackle, leader... all great choices. Personally i'd go blodge. i have a blodge pro troll and he's amazing. Combo with SF, guard and Break tackle and you have a dream (or nightmere) of a player. |

If Saurus were a Latin word, yes, but by checking the GW site we can say for sure that Saurus is used for singular and plural as well.
From GW site:
"When the Lizardmen march to battle, it is the Saurus who make up the hardened core of the fighting force"
"The Saurus were created purely for war; it is the sole reason for their being and they are entirely single-minded in their role"
About the Kroxigor: I'd take Dodge. |

Enough with the take Leader nonsense already, Leader is a horrible choice.
Frenzy or DT are mediocre.
Best choices by far are Dodge or Tackle, I would go with Tackle. |

I am going to shout "Sidestep" for the hell of it!
Would have taken Dodge on the Second double btw. |

Again with this? GW don't know what they're doing half the time (and that's a kind estimate), its already established that the plural of Saurus is Sauraii. There's half a thread about it (and ockham's razor) over here. DrDiscoStu can verify. |

Break tackle isn't interesting in your opinion, eh? Consider the cage breaking opportunities you would have if you did take dodge at 31 spp and break tackle at 51 spp. Interested yet? |

If said Krox was on a Slann team it would be obvious by now that Nuffle requires you to take Leap. This would then clear the way for two consecutive +AGs, permitting the notoriously overpowered 4+ saute. |

Oh wow I had forgotten about that thread. I had also wondered what happened to my blog post about the plural when all the lizard coaches had PM'd me (we didn't used to have comments) about what it should be - and that thread explained it.
Also, I used to be a lot more argumentative on these forums. Debating Occams Razor in a saurus DP thread? Who could be bothered with that? Ha!
EDIT:
Back on topic.
Diving Tackle gives a -3 to people dodging away, so it isn't a stupid pick, but suboptimal.
Sidestep is an absolute sin given you have normal access to standfirm and zero general access. People who take sidestep on big guys or tomb guardians are wrong. Wrong I tell you! |

Saurus were invented by GW, GW owns the IP therefore the correct word is Saurus.
No need to know what they are doing, they decided to use it in that form.
Moreover, if you check the CRP Lizardmen roster, it's written like this:
0-16 Skinks
0-6 Saurus
0-1 Kroxigor
Saurus, not Sauri, Saurii, Sauraii or whatever plural you can invent. |

Preposterous. The Old Ones made the Sauraii to protect them from the Younger Races. GW was just an evolutionary fart that came aeons later. A series of mutations gone awry, long after the Old Ones had left. Who cares what us Humans, with our credulous "linguistics", chose to call them. Reading up on your celestial history will help you understand. You can also confer with the thesaurus (you think this word is a coincidence?). |
