Hi, Im going to a tournament in May and I want to bring my Seraphon one last time before they get their new battletome. But I find it really difficult to write what I feel is a good list with all the point increases they have recieved. Im open to play any style of Seaphon army and cant really decide what I want to play. What sub-faction, units etc. have been working for you? Thanks in advance
The simplest to try would be Thunder Lizard. Taking a Slann, Engine of the Gods, Skink Priest, at least one Bastiladon. 5 Saurus Guard (or another screen to keep in range of Slann to avoid getting shot), then the rest in another Basti, screens of skinks or knights, maybe an Endless spell like Sun or horrorghast. Finally try to fit in one more threat and/or another scoring unit. E.g. 10 knights or 30 skinks with a starpriest. Consider a knight Zephryos to score a turn 1 battle tactic if you have points left over. You can try a Carnosaur instead of 10 knights/30 skinks. Or Kroxigor if you have them. If you want to use Kroak then be sure to take an Astrolith bearer and 5 guard, with at least x2 screening units, preferably 2 x5 knights, with EOTG, priest and at least 1 Basti. if you have loads of knights and prefer to use them plus a Carno then you can go Koatls Claw, in that case I'd look to drop the EOTG for the Carno and fit a Starseer in. at lest 1 unit of x10 knights, + two x5 knights. Hope this helps and good luck!
Thanks so much, this was very helpful! What do you think of this list? I feel it might have too few screening units perhaps, but idk.
