AoS What wacky new stuff could they add to seraphon?

Ok......ok.....hear me out......




































Giant snakes ridden by lizardmen!

 

meh, we have plenty of mounted stuff, I'd say we're in more need of infantry than that.

 

So a heavily armored saurus warrior? Heavier then temple guard?

 

In terms of infantry:

• Non-horde "basic" infantry that's actually functional. Our minimum strength "basic" infantry isn't a threat to anything, even when completly ignored. E.g a unit of 10 skinks forces one whole save per turn.... like that'l get you anywhere...
• Actual "heavy" infantry. None of our infantry has more than 1 wound unless it's a hero.
• Actual "elite" skinks, chameleons aren't an "elite" version of skinks since they fullfill a vastly different role, at least in the game. In fluff they're fine.
• offensive "elite" infantry, guards are there to well guard, we have no "elite" infantry that's supposed to assault. Imagine something like the stormcast paladins
• A clearer identity for our infantry. We have a whole host of special rules for most of em, but they don't particularly work together. Makes em feel like they just took a bunch of random abilities and stats and then called it a day.

 

S

O something like sacred spawning saurus with two weapons or a great weapon as damage dealing berserkers?

 

those could work for the "elite" offensive ones yea, or for none-horde "basic" units.
An alternative could be to get a unit of skink assasins or something that are capable of dealing a decent amount of damage.

 

Didn't think of that.cool idea!

I think we need a heavy cav too

 

I was always surprised that Lizardmen never received any heavy cavalry. You would think there was more than ample opportunity with all the creatures that resided in Lustria. Dino heavy cav would have been a sight to behold.

 

This to me is at the top of my 'most wanted' list for Seraphon. A lizard equivalent of bloodcrushers/goregruntas/dracoths - 3-models to a unit,each with 4-6 wounds. Preferably with a save that isn't 5+ (looking at you, cold ones).

 

A step between cold one cav and a brace of carnosaur riders

 

I'd like "mini"-behemoths for that, not so much heavy cavalry. But yea, same idea in essence, and we need to field more big dinosaurs cuz big dinosaurs are cool

 

I don't see chariots as a seraphon thing.i still think an in between cav is the best idea

 

it could work with the "mini"- behemoths. So instead of a chariot you just pick a "mini"-stegadon or some such. That'd fit more I think.

 

Agreed

 

Also, I want a better version of the bastillidon now, those fish-aelves are ripping them off.

 

I really need to get a bastiliadon

 

Chariot does play nice in Jungle.

 

how do chariots work nicely in a jungle? Wheels and jungle tend to not cooperate well
