It looks to me like a new type of player, perhaps a chameleon skink? |

it is a chameleon skink, as the text says so. really hope they havent buffed the lizards. If I were to guess I would say they are the sme price - 1 AV with the skill Catch. Which wouldn't be awful. If they start with Sure Hands though that will be far too big a buff. |

Garion, will you edit the Chameleon Skinks from your Secret League Skink roster and make them like the GW ones?
I think you should for consistency (as you did for example adding to the Eshin Gutter Runners Weeping Dagger).
If you don't want to change them then I suggest a name change to prevent confusion. |

it depends on what they do with them really, most likely I will, but if its something truly awful I won't. That said I included Weeping Daggers even though i consider their inclusion in the rules an abomination. |

Even giving them catch makes an already very good offensive bash team even better with more reliable 1 and 2 turn options |

sure, I don't know what they have done, this is just a guess. I would rather Lizardmen were left well alone as they are already very top of tier 1. But Catch and -Av wouldnt push them over the top imo. It would be a tiny buff, which they absolutely don't need. But it wouldn't be game breaking.
The new player could be something worthless like a skink with diving catch for 10k more which will almost never get taken.
The miniature has a tongue firing out it's mouth and catching the ball. so it would appear to be catch or diving catch. |

Catch and 'Chameleon' (works like foul appearance) |

With the skinks big eyes they look a bit more like BB Slann than usual. |

I dunno if it is the sculpture or the painting, but they look like derpy pugs or Chihuahuas to me. |

They do mention chameleon Skinks in the text, but just after writing Massive Saurus. Doesn't sound like a specific positional. Just Saurus and skink.
Though anybody who wants a Lizardmen team from scratch will want a Krox model. |

It looks like a baller positional to me. Maybe with monstrous mouth. Hope I am wrong though. |

They're kind of missing the point with these type of '2 tone' rosters; believing they're boring because they lack positionals and sadly not seeing the depth. |
