Hey I really like this list, but I would advise you that I would usually not have my unit of tomb guard below 20... anyways
You have a slight complication there....
Tomb king chariots are only core if you have a tomb king on a chariot himself
so you have 5 special choices, which puts you 1 over the limit of special choices, so I would drop some of the skeletons from the 25 unit and put your tomb king in a chariot... maybe the chariot of fire ^_^

nonono, chariots are special when a tomb prince as general, and core with a tomb king as general if I remember correctly......

i have 3 speacil and 5 core and charoits are core if u have a tomb king as your genural. he doesn't have to be in one.

Have a look in the book..... On the page with lords and heroes on one of the sides it says that chariots only become core when you have a tomb king in one..... I'm pretty sure thats what it says
been a while since I have played tomb kings

ok im looking at the army book right now and i quote
"if your army is led by a tomb king then chariots count as core unit choices. if your army is led by a tomb prince, chariots count as special unit choices instead"
pg 45 top right

sorry, though it said if your army is led by a tomb king riding a chariot... my mistake ^_^

Baah add a standard to your bowmen unit so that it starts with 4 CR if it gets charge eventually..., same with your other skellies. I mean considering its a point of CR every turn for 10pts each id pay for it!
Also since theyre such an odd sized unit anyways why not drop the tomb Gaurd, increase the size of each chariot unit by one, give them standards, then with the standards for the skellie units and a ward save (collar of shapesh) and GW for you Tombking youll be ready to go!

No dispel scrolls?I'm impressed...You should have at least 3 of them!Also,if you don't equip your King with magic items why don't you use another scorpion(compare their stats and you will understand what i mean,paying 90 more pts just for 2 1d6 incantations?)?Give him some magical items!Replace the giant (I 3 prefer ushabti instead of 1 giant and gain 25 pts) with a scorpion and a catapult and use the remaining pts to purchace some magical equipment for your King.Give the Plagues to the LP with the Cloak (your Hierophant I believe?),give to the other one 2 scrolls and also give a scroll to the one with the Jar.Also,since you are not using a LHP a COS is a good option if you want your magic to get through more easily). And equip your units with standards if you don't want to crumble from CR (give the Undying legion banner to TG and put to another unit the War banner) bla bla bla...-_-
