Two things about this list. One is that my meta is pretty diverse. I face a lot of different armies with diverse strengths and weaknesses. So if you are me, you can do two things, try to build a TAC list, which I love and is usually more about being able to adapt to missions than pure power, or you can bring a streamlined, narrowly constructed list with a single purpose. This list is the 2nd option. The 2nd point I want to make, is that Seraphon are really good at making 2++ units. When the GH2 drops, I'm hoping to see some of the popular mortal wound beasts and units nerfed a little by way of a slight point increase. If that does happen, Guard based lists will improve. Rambling completed, here is my rock-hard list (@LordRibbit inspired):
Leaders
Saurus Eternity Warden (140)
Skink Starpriest (100)
Skink Priest (100)
Saurus Scar-Veteran on Carnosaur,(260)
Skink Starseer (160)
Battleline
10 x Saurus Guard (200)
10 x Saurus Guard (200)
5 x Saurus Guard (100)
Units
5 x Chameleon Skinks (120)
5 x Chameleon Skinks (120)
Behemoths
Dread Saurian (400)
Battalions
Eternal Starhost (80)
Total:1980/2000
Fairly easy to get a 2++ on the Guard and the Dread. Both demand mortal wound attention, and one is a giant model that takes up half the table. My normal combination of Starseer and Priest make another appearance to provide spell support and cheesy re-rolls. This list can be a hard nut to crack. If your opponent, A, lacks mortal wounds or B, doesn't understand the importance of killing our weaker heroes, they might not enjoy the game. If your meta is not about spamming mortal wounds and you want to make a list to stomp, this would be a solid direction. Its flaws are pretty obvious. It lacks a lot of speed, it lacks a lot of long range shooting and it is weaker to mortal wounds. That being said, if you haven't played with a Dread, who has a 2++, has the serpent staff buff, and is blessed by Starlight, you should try it
, just make sure your opponent knows before the game that this is meant more for competitive.
I had to proxy a Dread, a Carnosaur with a cardboard base to represent the size... looked terrible haha. I'm trying to convince myself on pulling the trigger on buying the model.
