As someone who gets bogged down in the details of models, painting 2 more EoTG's is such a daunting task, but then again, so is painting a 100 Skinks for summoning lol.
Haha and that is another reason for only taking one more (I already own and have painted two) though the dread will be a bit of a task and a half Yeah we will need a lot of skink, I also intend to play sylvaneth- their lovely insanely powerful queen can now summon a whole tree lord, 3x hunters or a bunch of chaff on turn one...need another treelord lol.
That sounds incredible. I think Sylvaneth will continue to be a really strong army and Alarielle.... Thorn in our sides. Literally.
My dread comes in this weekend.. MAYBE... UK to US shipping can be questionable lol. I cant wait to start assembling and painting that beast... and then buffing it and sending it down their throats lol
Lol yeah they are an interesting army, they move more than the teleporting lizards and have some really nasty monster power...and yeah the queen is just a mega overkill model (she even puts the dread Saurian to shame) the model is a beaut though. Before I get anything else though...I want the dread I have grand plans for him in the new upcoming version of AoS + surely there isn’t a soul who wouldn’t want one hell of a lizard in their army?
If only it werent such a terrible looking model that doesnt at all match any of the other Seraphon. If only I could get away with using a Dracodile from Hordes! Thats a way cooler looking lizard than the Saurian!
mines coming in this week... but im kinda wishing id held off on the 200 US$ before seeing his changes in action... didn't think theyd adjust him that drastically. only think I don't like is that its resin... other than that the model is amazing IMO
He’s a great looking model (his angle just isn’t right) - leans too far over, but like most of my models I will adapt him to suit me, as he is one hell of a centre piece he should be treated as such (I’m thinking a lot more bling and a solid base detail - already have this all planned)
They are! So are skinks, Saurus guard, and saurus knights. Skinks are only a battleline unit for seraphon allegiance.
Played a game with the new handbook today played the game on the basis thatf the rippers rule overrides the rule of one (which after the game is either wrong or will be faq'd again) Summoning is interesting with mystic shield kind of useless with the priest in a list as you can gen points easily.
about the summoning: lets say, you have 18 points. you can summon 10 skinks for 6 points. if i will summon 30 skinks, can i choose between get 3 x 10 skinks and 1 x 30 skinks? can i combine units by summoning, like 40 saurus warriors for the bonuses?
Yeah...it’s annoying, I’m told it’s a fresh unit of X rather than X that can become one unit or be added to another (means a lot of wondering salamanders lol)
haha, turn 5 you have 10 x 1 Salamanders on its own, terrifying the landscape . Like in the real time 65 million years ago
lol I’ve seen a lot of people add a unit of handlers to their armies without Sally’s (in prep for summoning them) those poor guys are going to have their hands full
