    How do lizardmen travel

    How do lizardmen travel? unlike the other races pretty sure they dont have a navy, but i could be wrong, slan open up gateways for them to get from new world to old world etc? or do they just sit in their jungle waiting for foes to come to them?

    Just wondering, cant remember if i ever read anything on this before
    Over GWs Australian pricing policy, charging us more then 50% for that same product compared to most others? Sick of GW charging more for resin then metal??? WTF only in GW world would this be fair, cheaper product to produce, should be cheaper when selling

    Re: How do lizardmen travel

    The gateways is pretty much all they need. Lizardmen aren't in to colonialism, they don't need to travel around to other continents. If the Slann feel like they are required somewhere, they will open the Paths of the Old Ones. Otherwise, they only need to stay put and defend their temple cities from invaders. Lizards are a pretty insular race for WFB.
    Awake O Dead, for there can be no rest for ye beneath the earth. Let the splintered bones burrow from the grave pall. Let cold fingers grip time-worn blades, and unseeing eyes survey the fields of slaughter. For your time has come once more. And the dead shall walk.

    It's a little know fantasy fluff fact that the Slann are very conscious of their looks, because of this they don't get out much. Always sitting at home makes them fat, getting fatter makes them stay home... it's a vicious cycle.

    Did they use the hair of the backs to tie the turtles together?

    Sometimes when they want something or to know something a slann will simply send a super fast party of skinks on terradons.

    I did make up some ships once in warmaster scale and for the lizardmen I had large twin hulled vessels with stepped pyramid shaped tops. They also had masts topped with jungle trees and towers to act as terradon launching platforms, with pens on the decks for keeping them in. I thought they looked quite good against the Ork Drilla-Killa and the like.

    Taking their historical inspiration, the South American civilizations as a reference, I predict the Mk-1 hooves would be the most used form of transportation, fantasy elements described above excepted.
