Lizardmen

Hi all,
i'd like to ask some advices about a lizardmen warband:
- is it possible to run a warband made most of sauri?
- are there alternative rules?

i know that a saurus is not the most clever but i prefer them over skinks....

thanks.

Well by the rules I don't see how it can happen.
Maybe as a way to do it is play Beastmen but use Lizardmen as the models and fluff.
Not sure if the Sauri can have there own "Priest" or "Shaman" but maybe use the Marks of the Dark Gods "Mark of the Dog" and have your Shaman be your Totem Warrior.

Not perfect but I think it will fit well with out re working rules.

Heres an alternative by Tommy Punk:

It has 4 saurus heros you can purchase

Pervavitas idea strikes me as the best solution, easy and neat.

Thanks guys,
Pervavita's idea is very nice saurus as gors, cold ones as hounds and i've an old kroaking skink to use as braying shaman
