Master of Star Rituals– Add 1 to casting rolls for this general if they are a WIZARD. If they are not a WIZARD, then once per battle round they can use the Herald of the Old Ones command ability from the Skink Priest warscroll without a command point being spent. Lord Kroak is the named Slann Starmaster. His hype is huge and not overstated. There is no list he doesn’t work in and there’s virtually no scenario you won’t take him. He’s the best caster in the army, with 4 casts and unbinds per turn. He has two unique spells, both of which are prety solid damage spells. Comet’s Call has no limit to its range and Celestial Deliverance can be cast up to 3 times per turn, breaking the usual rules for spells. He sports a +1 to casting, unbinding and dispel rolls. He also gets to ignore typical range restrictions on unbinding and dispelling opponent’s spells, able to do both from anywhere on the field.

Note: this article was made prior to the December 2019 points update, so some points could have changed there. Value of the Start Collecting Seraphon box Saurus spam. Saurus aren’t as popular as Skinks because they cost a bit too much for what they do while Skinks are priced to move. It’s not to say they’re worthless. They serve their purpose you just don’t want to build a list around them. Still if you want to play them regardless of that fact, here they are. The Thunder Lizard (The Coalesced) The latest addition to my army is the incredible Lord Kroak model. This miniature was truly a blast to convert and paint. I wanted to get across that he is the man (well, frog) in charge, so he towers over every other unit in my army – and probably my opponents’ armies too. Of course, updating the Seraphon means they’re getting their own stunning scenery kit. Realmshaper Engine

Nice write-up overall! However, you didn't fully adjust your copy-paste from the Warriors here. You could build TWO 4-model units of Knights, not three. I’ll fix that right up now. I want to add more information on the advantages of two boxes, since every other post last night seemed to be, “I got two SC Seraphon boxes, is this good?” You can get soooo much out of two boxes! Coalesced Constellations If your army is COALESCED, you can (but don’t have to) give it the KOATL’S CLAW or THUNDER LIZARD keyword. All COALESCED units in your army get that keyword and gain the listed abilities for that Constellation. Bit too swingy, you have to jump through too many dice rolls and it’s likely you’ll only get 1 or 2 wounds out of it. C- Seraphon are weird. This isn’t a subfaction in the traditional sense (those come later), it’s really two armies that share a unit roster. When Seraphon first launched, they had some really odd lore about how they were the dreams of dead gods or whatever. This didn’t go over great and Games Workshop made the concession of allowing both. Starborne represent the 1.0 lore while coalesced represent a bit more grounded lore choice. Neither one affects which units you can take, all of the units in the book are open to both factions, but they do affect which constellations (subfactions) you have access to which tend to favor certain units or playstyles. The Coalesced

Place the banner arm between the icons and glue in place, the arm wants to be at 90 degrees to the icons. Extremely good guide! I've done something very similar myself recently, but have tried to recycle a few more spare parts in there. Add 3 to run and charge rolls for Saurus Knights within 18 inches of the Scar-Veteran. Again, potentially quite good in a Koatl’s Claw list but outside of that you’re not likely to want to take many Saurus. Shadowstrike Temple-Host (Coalesced) RequirementsWe all know the SC box is good value but can we make it better value, I think so and hopefully here I will show you how. We are a small team of Warhammer Enthusiasts and miniature collectors, hoping to support and further promote the hobby. There’s a lot of wailing and gnashing of teeth because you have to set this up before setting deployment zones. Which means you might plant it squarely in their zone. The mortal wound damage isn’t good enough to justify that, and the enemy can garrison inside if it so happens to end up in their territory, being one of the only army terrain pieces that can help your opponent. I recommend planting it near the center or not bringing it. Army Lists Command Trait: Dominant Predator – A KOATL’S CLAW SAURUS general must have this. Roll a dice each time this general is used to issue a command to a friendly KOATL’S CLAW SAURUS unit. On a 4+, you receive 1 extra command point. I hope you find this useful and keep an eye out for a follow up tutorial on painting your Starter set.

Lots of ways to gain Command Points –You have access to tons of relics, traits and warscroll abilities to generate CP. And you’ll need them!

As this doesn’t cost a command point you can really set yourself up for something good here. Many armies have at least one subfaction like this and it’s pretty powerful here for all the strong units you can hide. Put a large unit of Saurus Warriors or a Bastiladon in
