Long time 40k player and I managed to acquire some seraphon. So I built up a 2k list and this is what I’m considering running:

BATTALION: Fangs of Sotek

Slann starmaster
Saurus Oldblood on carnosaur

BATTALION: Sunclaw starhost(in fangs of sotek)
Saurus sunblood

x10 warriors-spears, drumb, banner
x10 warriors-spears, drumb, banner
x10 warriors-spears, drumb, banner

x5 OF ANY SERAPHON UNITS(in fangs of sotek)
Bastiladon
Engine of the gods
Saurus astrolith bearer
Skink starpriest
x3 terradon riders-star strike javelins

Idea is for the slann, astrolith bearer, and engine of the gods try to summon more units.

Any ideas for the above list or how to run seraphon? I’m very much new to the game and this at least sounds like it will work lol.

So this is what you'd run?

I added in some trait/artefact propositions, feel free to change:

Allegiance: Seraphon

Slann Starmaster (260)
- General

- Artefact: Incandescent Rectrices
Saurus Oldblood on Carnosaur (260)

- Artefact: Light of Dracothion
Engine of the Gods (220)
Saurus Astrolith Bearer (160)
Skink Starpriest (80)

Battleline
10 x Saurus Warriors (100)

Behemoths
Bastiladon (280)

Fangs of Sotek (70)
Sunclaw Starhost (130)

Total: 2000 / 2000
Extra Command Points: 2
Allies: 0 / 400
Wounds: 93


I dont know anything about Seraphon but seems like low Wounds count for 2000 pts, but I might just be a shitnoob.

PS: From what I can gather, most Seraphon players that seem to run something similar to this want one Saurus unit in a big 30+ unit with spears. But as I said, I dont really know anything.

Correct that’s what I would run.

I appreciate the add ins with traits and artifacts.

Since I’m still very much new I’m still working out all the tricks and tactics.

I appreciate the comment!
