How exactly does slip stream work? I just got a seraph but have never seen it used. Any particular synergies you've found that work well would be helpful to know too.

you use the animus via your warbeast(or warlock). After your warbeast has moved, something else (model B) within 2" of your movement corridor can be placed completely within 2" of model b's current position.

Does that mean a model that the seraph or warlock passed in its movement? That's the part I'm confused on.

Yes.

You can basically use it to drag one of your other models to near the Seraph, which will then activate later in the turn. Benifiting from the extra movement.

You can also IIRC use it to move enemy models too. So you could move an enemy model out of the way so you can open a charge corridor.


Basically its a good assassination tool.

Not exactly.

The model doesn't have to be moved near the Seraph, it can be moved away from it. The only requirement is that the model was within 2" of the Seraph (or the warlock that cast the animus), at some point during the Seraph's movement and that the "target" model be placed completely within 2" of its original position.

Also, Slipstream only works on Friendly Faction models, so you can't use it to move enemy models.
