    I recently bought the GW general's handbook and as i read trough it I found it interesting where it describes about playing campaigns and wanted to participate in a campaign, cool. As i read further though it only described the allegiances for chaos, skaven, stormcast eternals, Fyreslayers, ironjawz,death and Sylvaneth warbands. No seraphon...:( since I have created a lizardmen/seraphon army i would like to know if there is an extention of other warband allegiances, or i use one of the existing ones because, i really wanna see my lizzies climbing up the top with Glory.
    Thanks

    I think you can join the other "Good" armies.
    but you may loose some benefits that seraphon only armies have.

    For now, no warband for us.
    It's a wasted opportunity, given that we are one of the few army with a real battletome...

    Eh, it's kinda Mordheim, maybe later we'll have a semi-official warband. ;)

    Nope no path of glory, i mean it is a shame that they have to exclude the seraphon from stuff like this because come on, they were one of the only 2 races to survive the end times (the other being skaven which, got their path of glory AND campaign) Choas didnt even survive and it was they who destroyed it! I mean this means that seraphon cannot participate in around 2/3rds of the book, i mean GW well done on bringing back the points system but boo on leaving all us seraphon players out

    would it be possible to host a competition on who could create the best campaign warband allegiance for the seraphon as a community made warband for the seraphon players until an official came out?

    We were thinking the same, just basing off of other armies I imagine it won't be too hard to figure something out

    The Brettonians are considering writing their own. There is a thread for the notion going on the Bret forums.

    There was a Quest for the Grail supplement a few editions back that could be updated.

    @KROQ-GAR and GRYMLOQ —How did any Skaven survive the End Times eradication of all things Warhammer?

    The original Path To Glory was a booklet for Chaos things only. Strongly encouraged converting models.

    I fear that the reason why we don't have a warband, lies in that horrible fluff for Seraphon.

    We are not "living" being, saurus are just summoned from the memories of the Slanns, so, if the troops and the heroes are just dreams made flesh, how can they attract followers?

    Oops was busy writing this out when you wrote that, but here is an example of what we will be play testing. If it seems over powered we will tweak it, but I think it's justifiable at this point. But yeah we could definitely run a comp and see what the community comes up with.

    Sure, I agree with you, but I'm just trying to imagine the reason behind their choice.

    I think that you could probably replace Oldblood on foot with Sunblood without too many complaints, but I tried to base it off of other armies paths to glory so the oldblood/scar vet lone is where I went. Like the Celestant for the Stormcast.
