Hello fellow lizards! I am new to AoS and played a demo game a week ago and decided I want to play Seraphon. The local game shop is going to be starting an escalation league that will go from 1k, 1.5k, to 2k points. I know I probably won't be winning many games but I want to join to learn the game and get some experience. And mainly to have fun! I was lucky to have been able to grab the following kits: 2 Start Collecting (I have seen the guide here and plan to make the Astrolith Bearer and Scar Vet on Cold One) Skink Starpriest 2 Boxes of Skinks (20 have been built with blowpipes so far) Thunderbeast Host box (nothing built, but would like to magnetize the Stegadons) I was thinking for 1k to build the Firelance Starhost but looking for input.
Welcome to Lustria! I rather enjoy Shadowstrike Starhost with Ripperdactyls for 1k. If you can swing the RIpperdactyls and Skinks then I highly recommend it!
Here's what I came up with: Allegiance: Order LEADERS Skink Starpriest (80) Saurus Oldblood on Carnosaur (240) UNITS 10 x Skinks (70) - Boltspitters & Star Bucklers 10 x Skinks (70) - Boltspitters & Star Bucklers 3 x Ripperdactyl Riders (140) BEHEMOTHS Troglodon (140) BATTALIONS Shadowstrike Starhost (180) TOTAL: 920/1000 EXTRA COMMAND POINTS: 1 WOUNDS: 57 LEADERS: 2/4 BATTLELINES: 0 (2+) BEHEMOTHS: 2/2 ARTILLERY: 0/2 ARTEFACTS: 0/2 ALLIES: 0/200 I am curious what thoughts are on bringing a Trogoldon (and I would add another unit of 10 skinks) versus taking a Stegadon
Additionally, this is what I thought of for Firelance: Allegiance: Order LEADERS Saurus Scar-Veteran on Carnosaur (240) - Warblade Skink Starpriest (80) UNITS 5 x Saurus Knights (80) - Lances 5 x Saurus Knights (80) - Lances 5 x Saurus Knights (80) - Lances 10 x Skinks (70) - Boltspitters & Star Bucklers 10 x Skinks (70) - Boltspitters & Star Bucklers BEHEMOTHS Troglodon (140) BATTALIONS Firelance Starhost (150) TOTAL: 990/1000 EXTRA COMMAND POINTS: 1 WOUNDS: 78 LEADERS: 2/4 BATTLELINES: 0 (2+) BEHEMOTHS: 2/2 ARTILLERY: 0/2 ARTEFACTS: 0/2 ALLIES: 0/200
