  1. To be fair, he didn't play any of the "power creep" armies... But still... Incredible GT by him! Sounds like he played well! Interview with him from HonestWargamer
  2. Yeah, Grpyhfeather on him for survivability or Thermalcloak to let him fly! A flying Stonehorn is nasty.
  3. Well, Adepticon was disappointing for Seraphon players. a) They featured Seraphon on the stream in what was probably the worst Seraphon army list I've ever seen by a player who had zero idea of Seraphon rules. b) No love for seraphon during announcements. Not even a warband for Underworlds or Warcry…. not even a Champions tease or something. At least we have the June GHB to look fwd to.... hopefully they don't nix more of our battalions.
  4. Yeah, I hear ya. The official Razordon kit comes with an extra head and tail, so you can get a cold one a bit closer to the same look with that.... But still... Even with two per kit, that's $15 per Razordon. Needlessly expensive model.
  5. Working on converting Saurus Knights into 16 Razordons! Hope they aren't about to get rekt by a new battletome (although... i'd be fine with that if that's what it takes to get a new tome! lol) Kitbashing Razordons - Youtube
  6. Video recap of my seraphon matches from the GW Citadel GT - Heat 1 two weeks ago (Narrative/Match play mash up GT.... 30 pts for games, 70 points for paint/sports/fluff) https://youtu.be/9CTZWtOrXTk
  7. Played in the Warhammer Citadel Series this weekend in Texas. Ended up getting 5th place and an automatic bid into their championship round at the end of the year! So seraphon will be representing!! It was a very fluffy tournament despite being the Citadel flagship series for North America. 30 possible pts for matches, 30 for sports, 30 for paint, and 10 for narrative. They didn't release the Battleplans ahead of time, so I didn't take my normal list. I wanted a Carnosaur in case we had to play game types that require heroes to score. It ended up mostly serving as a distraction peice, but did well at that. List : Slann Thunderquake Carno 2 units of Rippers Skinks It ended up playing alright for the game types. I went 3-2 which is probably pretty avg for seraphon right now. My fluff points pushed me into the top finishers bracket. Game 1 - Starstrike vs Gloomspit Gitz - Won this one by sniping most of his low wound heros and I got a double turn and teleported Rippers into his Rogue Idol twice in a row to kill it. He had a bunch of squigs that fled easily once his heroes were gone. His unit of 60 stabbas never really got in the fight. They were held up a few turns by the remaining Rippers. Game 2 - Escalation vs Stormcast - Lost this one as expected since Thunderquake and Carno had to start in the very corner of the map. Terrible gametype. Also, failed 4 straight teleports on the carno. Lol. He was stuck in the corner! Highlight was the Bastiladons tanking a ton of attacks from some units of evocators! Game 3 - Battle for the Pass vs Stormcast - Won this one by taking first turn and teleporting skinks into range of his back objective which was only held by a hand full of models. Got Rippers on the side objectives and then camped my objective with Thunderquake.... Then just turtle and held on. At one point he had his Stardrake tying up my Two Bastiladons and it was a pillow fight! No damage done to either side for two rounds at least! In the end, teleporting units around in the end game won me this one. Game 4 - Three Places of Power vs Nighthaunt - Won this one by just two points despite tabling him. I got the turn 1/2 double turn and took out the important heroes. But he got my Carnosaur with a big unit of banshee. This one came down to me Summoning an extra EoTG and teleporting it to an open objective. Game 5 - Duality of Death vs Order Draconis - I lost this one badly. Nearly my entire army was gone except the Slann by the end. He was running 4 dragons and some knights. He played very well and got a few absolutely devastating double turns at crucial points. Fun tournament and Seraphon was represented well by at least two other seraphon armies and one SCE that brought skinks.
  8. Friend of mine has been playing some of my BCR. Has been running 4 thundertusks. Recorded a match between him and 45 Putrid Blight Kings! Unfortunately, they rolled bat plan Escalation, which forced all the Thundertusks to have to deploy pretty far back. The 20 man unit of Grots screened well tho. The Thundertusks sniped out all the Nurgle heros, but just couldn't get thru the massive amount of wounds the Nurgle PBKs have! When the Nurgle team got a unit of PBKs into combat with all four TT, it was over. The TT - 1 to hit neutered the PBK.... But the TT still couldn't clear them. The BCR player should have spread them out a bit more or retreated one or two to get free. Fun game tho! Video below... If you need something to hobby to. https://youtu.be/NMSoZaCzE60
  9. I let a friend play my BCR army... and of course, he goes full Thundertusk! I played as seraphon with a turtling battalion... which failed miserably! Lol. The battleplan favored him big time: Duality of Death. Heros and Behemoths cap objectives within 3". This eliminated all the seraphon and skink hijinks. Since my seraphon list didn't have any real melee power, BCR was able to sit and snipe. It was filthy but fun! Video recap (we just started shooting some videos for our gaming buddy deployed overseas). https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CG1MHsHaYKo
  10. @tea_wild_owl Wow! Incredible conversion! Looks awesome
  11. Seems easily avoidable by the opponent though. Just allocate wounds from the endless spell to the Trogboss last... Right?
  12. I usually run Slann 2x EoTG Astrolith Starpriest 3x 10 skinks 4x Razordons + Handlers 2x Bastiladons Thunderquake I try to summon in my skink waves via the EoTG and Summoning points.
  13. Any idea if BCR is going to be able to ally in this new Troggoth King?
  14. Size comparison of the official 280 x 210 mm Dread Saurian base vs skink, carno, and entire thunderquake battalion
  15. No clue... I can't find a 280 mm anywhere. Going to contact one of the MDF base makers on ebay and see if they will do a 280. It is way to big for realistic play though...
  16. I liked it for taking max bastiladons. lol But ever since the Starseer got nerfed into the ground, it has been hard to justify taking it. Basically 380 point tax for heals. Needed fixing not deleting. Hopefully this points towards a new battletome as some have suggested.
  17. Seraphon FAQ updates: Banner - changed to wholly within. No clarification on planting. Assume it can move! CamoSkinks - can't summon into hiding. Battalions - Battalions from GA:Order book are no longer valid.
  18. Hyped for the Battleforce! I was just about to finally buy some Rippers and more skinks. Perfect timing!!!
  19. My fav at the moment is Slann + Banner + Thunderquake. Good firepower and heals from Thunderquake. Summons and teleports from Slann. Just always be prepared for them to target the Slann immediately. A lot of our army's synergy/utility is tied up in that one 7-wound guy.
  20. That's the way I see it. It applies to all attacks for that unit. Nothing in print anywhere tells me different. I also try and get the Butcher's +1 to hit on the Eurlbad Huskard also. Makes him very punchy!
  21. Here is a quick pic of the ironblaster/mournfang/thundertusk kit bash. Ignore the paint so far... haha... just getting it ready for house games this weekend. https://imgur.com/gallery/gj0ACSJ Used a barrel bit off ebay, mournfang ogor and saddle from extra mournfang pack, "chariot" and tusks from unused thundertusk kit bits.
  22. Haha ouch... yeah, its stats aren't ideal... but love the model. Still working on the kitbash... will post pic when done. The chariot/cart the ogre is on is: mournfang saddle, Stonehorn beastrider back piece (the one for the second rider), with rounded shields for wheels, the wooden shaft of the beastriders totem is the axle, and lots of the barrels from the stonehore kit for decoration. oh... and a $7 purchase off ebay of the actual canon barrel... ha
  23. Anyone ever use Ironblasters with BCR? I'm kit bashing some extra mournfang into Ironblasters. I wish you could take two Ironblasters as one unit... that would make allies a bit more flexible. I'm thinking something like this: Frostlord on SH (420) with Ethereal Amulet Huskard on SH (340) with Vulture Huskard on TT (360) with Vulture Mournfang Pack (160) Mournfang Pack (160) Stonehorn Beastrider (320) Ironblaster (120) ALLY Ironblaster (120) ALLY Statistically, taking two should get one to hit each turn. Ha... but ya know how that goes. My gaming group is competitive in nature... but also experiments a lot. Plays open war cards, friendly battles, unique bat plans, etc.
