Hello,
well they work rather well.
They are a forgiving army to play, with access to spear wielding, scaled, cold blooded chaos warriors, some of the best monsters in the game, excellent combat characters, the best wizards in the game bar none and, most of all, they dont have any real lack in any department. They have flyiers, they have warmachines (that actually bite you too!) and have some of the best core in the game. No entry ir overpriced. Only complaints: never seen skinks used well by themselves, they tend 2 be just kroxigor fodder.
I hold a banner drenched in blood, I urge you to be brave
I lead you to your destiny, I lead you to your grave
Your bones will build my palaces, your eyes will stud my crown
For I am Khaine, the god of war, and I will cut you down.

And what does this engine of the gods thing?
I've read about upgrading a stegadon with it but I can't find what it does

Consider buying or borrowing the armybook if you're interested in collecting the army.

To summarize, the Engine has three different effects. It can inflict damage to nearby enemies, protect nearby Lizardmen units from ranged damage, or make magic easier to cast.

Lizardmen are golden in 8th edition. They were already strong, and now all of their units have a useful and viable role (some more than others, but everything is still quite good.) If you go with Lizardmen, you'll be picking a race that can reasonably take on any challenge.
There is no escape from Chaos. It marks us all.

As a part time LM player i can just say that they work very well, but i think the druchii are much more interesting to play :)
