Good Morning/Evening wherever you live I am an art teacher who has never played Warhammer before and have always been interested. I bought the SC Seraphon Kit and I followed that awesome guide to get more out of my units! So I have; 10 Warriors 5 Knights 1 Carnosaur with Scarvet rider 1 Astrolith Bearer 1 Oldblood on foot 1 Sunblood on foot 1 Scarvet on Coldone 1 Skink Priest My friends and I just got into the game and are building stuff and going to local game shops once they open. I'm wondering what should I buy and expand with next to make a nice competitive army? I'm not going super serious but it's fun to beat your friends So how can I make a nice 1000 point army with what I have and what can I buy next to make it better and start moving towards 2000? Thanks! And so far I am loving this hobby.
that depends on what you really love about seraphon there are 3 main paths you can go with seraphon. you can go skinks in which case the buying list is a couple star priests another normal priest a slann or kroak maligned portents box 40 80 or 120 skinks what ever you think is cool to fill the remaining points you can go saurus in which case the buying list is a slann or kroak maligned portents box a couple star priests and either 30 50 or 80 saurus warriors or 10 20 or 35 saurus knights what ever you think is cool to fill the remaining points last you can go specialist where you take one of our auxiliary units (teradons, salamanders. kroxagor, stegadons, carnasuars) and go full ham. the buy list is a bunch of the unit of your choice min battle line a slann or kroak maligned portents box another normal skink priest hope this all helps let me know if you need more help
Welcome to Lustria! Basically what @Erta Wanderer said. You have a few options depending on play style.
First of all, welcome aboard. I notice that you posted the same question also in the KoW subforum, probably just an error. I will delete it.
I am not a smart man.. and was embarrassed I couldn't delete it myself. I don't even know how I made that mistake because I have no idea what Kings of War is LOL. Where can I read/learn about the different play styles? I played my first game ever yesterday and I was really enjoying the knights with lances and how they benefited from charging which I thought was cool.
we have a lot of good guides here on the site http://www.lustria-online.com/threads/seraphon-list-for-battletome-2-o.24293/ http://www.lustria-online.com/threads/calebs-seraphon-strategy-videos.24790/ http://www.lustria-online.com/threads/battletome-2-0-seraphon-overview.24329/ also shameless self plug but this is a channel for helping out new players understand our faction https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCrAX9lZ1Y6HKG-l4j-XyVaw
Also what is a Malign Portents box? I googled it and looked on the games workshop and all I can find is a book.
sorry that was my bad it's called Malign Sorcery and it has all our endless spells in it https://www.games-workshop.com/en-US/Age-Of-Sigmar-Malign-Sorcery-2018-eng
You cannot delete a thread, sorry. don't bash yourself. It takes some time to learn how move through a forum so rich of stuff as Lustria. Just ask for any doubt you may have. Dumb questions don't exist, there are only questions.
At the moment don't worry about it. Endless spells is a useful but additional tool… for the moment just learn the basis.
