Guard the centre
Temple Guard are the regiment to put in front of a Slann or other valuable character, holding the ground the rest of the army is built around.
They are slower than skinks and cannot chase. Hold them in position and let faster units and monsters do the hunting.
Where they come from
Temple Guard belong to the Lizardmen core roster from Warhammer II and need developed Saurus recruitment buildings.
They are a separate entry from Saurus Warriors, which provide the cheaper core of the same line.
A protected Slann
Slann Mage-Priests are powerful but fragile. Temple Guard, Saurus Warriors and skink screens keep enemies away from them while their spells do the work.
Lord Mazdamundi is a Slann, which makes Temple Guard a natural fit for his armies, but every Lizardmen faction can recruit them with the right buildings.
