    So me and a few friends have been collecting Aos for a few months now And i think I've come up with a good enough list to fight off the Fyreslayers gay runes and the the Stormcast gaynals gayness. its not 100% perfect and i don't know any good Combo's and that soooo

    Leaders

    Lord Kroak (450)& is great rememberer the best command trait i could choose?

    Engine of the gods (220)

    Saurus eternity warden (140)

    Skink Priest (80 and Priestly trappings is a must take)

    Units

    Saurus guard (100)

    Saurus guard (100)

    Saurus guard (100)

    Chameleon skiniks (120) for this perhaps you could take 20 skinks a couple Salamanders or some thing else but i chose chameleons cause there cool man

    Behemoths

    Bastilidon (280)
    pew pew laser thing

    Bastilidon (280)
    more pew pew lazerz

    Battalion

    Eternal starhost (130)

    2000/2000

    i quite like this because you got so much so much tanks and soak, i mean the Saurus guard having a 2+ armour save then using the skink priest to make those re-rollable is very nice and the bastilidons have a 4+ against mortal wounds which is awesome. I don't think movement will be and issue because with great rememberer kroak can teleport two squads across the board Making a distraction especially if its 2 bastilidons though im not sure if they can still shoot once there teleported. the 120 points on the camo skinks can be changed Though im not sure to what personally i like the chameleons because they can sneak onto an objective while the bastillidon is play tiddlywinks with dwarfs

    Anyway let me know what you think as i would love feedback

    Kroak is a named character so he can't take great rememberer.

    Ah... Crap

    Can he at least teleport people across the board?
    I suppose moving fast isn't really a key element anyway. There will be few situations where I will win or lose depending on. movement speed

    Right?

    Any Seraphon army gets to use the lords of space and time feature.

    Shoulda read up on it more :(

    If I use lords of space and time teleport, whatchamacallit within 3" of an enemy model does it count as retreating (i.e can I shoot in the same turn)?

    Thx

    Indeed. It does not count as a retreat.

    They have 4+, but if they are within 8" of any Seraphon hero they get 3+, and the Eternal Starhost gives them another one so they end up 2+ as long as they are within 10" of their warden.

    :eek:

    And don't forget, a skink priest with trappings can cause all allies in 8 inches to reroll failed saves!

    Yep that combo is pretty decent.
    Both the Priest and Starpriest can buff them nicely.

    My problem is remembering the buffs. I will forget to reroll failed saves, and remember that I could have rerolled them two turns later.:banghead:

    It just takes a bit of practice. Or you can make yourself a small cheat sheet with stuff not to forget in each phase. :)

    It bothers me that you have to buy all these rule books to play the game.:mad: Do you know if there is one rule book I need to buy, or what?

    I have a 30 page download of the Seraphon rules, but I don't know if it's accurate.:confused: It doesn't have the most of the battalion rules, and it doesn't talk about special equipment at all. (Like the armor of destiny, or the piranha blade) So I have no idea if the rules are still viable.:oops:

    I downloaded these rules for free from GW. This was a year ago.

    I got the seraphon codex and the generals handbook 2017 it covers everything I need to play apart from the bloodtalon and heavenswatch batallions which you can find in the order battle tome. to me I think the downloadable one is fine however it would anoy me getting the download out again and again preferably I prefer the book but that's just me

    I think no rules have changed in a year but idk

    Don't listen to me though because I thought kroak could take great rememberererererer:banghead::banghead::banghead:

    Just give incandescent recites ( think that's what its called ) to someone and your good to go

    I agree. For our army you basically need two books:
    - GHB2017
    - Battletome Seraphon

    I also recommend the Age if Sigmar App since it has all the warscrolls.

    Idk how much they even cost I got em 4 my Bday

    But then again you can't expect to play warhammer without spending an arm or a leg
    Most likely the other arm and leg as well :(

    2 basti's for £70 from GW
    They charge me 10% extra because there funding for a new table so that's £77
    I don't care for the blasted table its overpriced anyway
    Don't know any other sites for warhammer and Christmas has been as well so I'm kinda flushed atm

    Try amazon. I got a seraphon starter kit for 68 dollars.

    And I can see charging a lot for the miniatures, but when GW pulls this "buy our new rule book to gain access to your units new abilities" crap, it annoys the crap out of me. And why does a rulebook cost $50?!?

    Well, the rules themselves aren't too expensive (They are free) and the new stuff for our army in the GHB2017 is just two pages.
    You will be able to do without the books in a pinch. You can find all that stuff in the Internet. 1d4chan or so. I think we even have a summary thread somewhere here.

    If your gunna get the generals handbook for those four pages on seraphon then there's no point I agree u can find somin on the internet

    For me amazon is the same price roughly
    But there's always 1 silly billy that tries to sell a squad of terradons for £233 ($316)
    Hopefully there are not idiots that do such a thing

    Anywhooo I tried at my first game it was take and hold so the saurus guard having a
    2+ armour save
    Re-rolling armour saves
    3 attacks when within 5" of an eternity warden
    D3 damage when standing still

    They held very very well

    As for the rest of the army they did all right eliminating biggest threats

    Kroak pulling mortal wounds out of his rear end
    Bastillidons being .. Bastillidons

    Did you know bastillidons means fortress

    My friend got the first turn which meant he got a few mortal wounds off but kroak and the bastillidons got rid of that problem quick

    In a whole I like the list
