Hi guys, new player here. I have a small handful games under my belt but I've lost several in a row so I feel like I'm clearly doing something wrong. If someone could help me build a 1500 point list from my available models for my game tomorrow, I would be very grateful! My local game store allows proxies so if I need to play my Oldblood as a ScV for example, I can. Here is what I have: Oldblood on Carno Skink Starpriest x2 ScV on Cold One Saurus Oldblood on foot Troglodon Bastilodon x2 3 Kroxigor 6 Ripperdactyls 15 Saurus Knights 10 Chameleon skinks 20 Saurus Warriors 30 Skinks Thanks in advance! Edit: Accidentally wrote Razordons instead of Ripperdactyls. List updated.
Welcome to Lustria! Maybe something along the line of this: Allegiance: Seraphon - Mortal Realm: Ghur LEADERS: Skink Priest (80) - General - Command Trait : Nimble - Cloak of Feathers - Artefact : Gryph-feather Charm Skink Starpriest (80) UNITS: 3 x Razordons (120) 3 x Razordons (120) 10 x Skinks (60) - Boltspitters & Star Bucklers 10 x Skinks (60) - Boltspitters & Star Bucklers 10 x Chameleon Skinks (240) 3 x Kroxigor (160) - 1 x Moonhammers BEHEMOTHS: Bastiladon (280) -Solar Engine Bastiladon (280) -Solar Engine TOTAL: 1480/1500 EXTRA COMMAND POINTS: 0 WOUNDS: 84
Thank you so much for the response! I have to apologize, though - I accidentally listed Razordons as a unit I own but I meant to say I have 6 Ripperdactyls. (I wish I had razordons, I'm just struggling to find some that I can afford.) Any suggestions for a list with my corrected army units?
In that case I can make you a much better list Allegiance: Seraphon Mortal Realm: Ulgu LEADERS: Skink Priest (80) - General - Command Trait : Nimble - Cloak of Feathers -Betrayer's Crown Skink Starpriest (80) -Miasmic Blade UNITS: 6 x Ripperdactyl Riders (280) 5 x Chameleon Skinks (120) 20 x Skinks (120) - Meteoric Javelins & Star Bucklers 10 x Skinks (60) - Boltspitters & Star Bucklers BEHEMOTHS: Bastiladon (280) -Solar Engine Bastiladon (280) -Solar Engine BATTALIONS: Shadowstrike Starhost (180) TOTAL: 1480/1500 EXTRA COMMAND POINTS: 1 WOUNDS: 77 Hope this makes it to you in time
Perfect! I will give that a shot at my game tonight. Out of curiosity, what makes this a better list than the previous one? As an aside, can I just say you have a fantastic username? Lol
There are a few things that make this list strong. Having a battalion gives you an advantage on dictating first turn. This can be very impactful on certain battleplans. Ripperdactyls are probably the best unit in our army. Razordons are a close second and would be preferred over Bastiladons though. The second list has a lot more reach and striking power. You should be able to play the objectives with your Chameleon and Standard Skinks while your Rippers and Bastiladons remove priority targets. Thanks. I was shocked it was available when I opened the account
Excellent! Thank you very much, I appreciate you taking the time to help me out and explain your thought process. Have a great day!
Well, I took a quick lead but lost in the last half. This list is definitely MEAN at a distance but my forces crumbled once my opponent (gitz) reached melee range. And I think I blew my ripperdactyls on the wrong unit; I focused his mangler squig but I rolled poorly and it decimated them when it was its turn to attack. But, lessons were learned and I know some things to do better next time. Next week is 2k against undefeated Nighthaunt so I've got some research to do!
