@salva4777 I went to a small 1k tournament with coalesced and won 3-0 even beating a soul blight army

How to play Koatl's Claw: 1) Move twice in the same battle round. 2) Charge! 3) Stab and bite. Repeat. Glory for the Old Ones!

As a new AoS and Seraphon player this is much appreciated.

I've learning a lot from you Caleb, your channel is a popular Seraphon place to go, TY for your great work!

It's like you knew I had arranged my first game of AOS for this saturday. Thank you for the great info Caleb!

This is perfect, I have a game next week for the first time in half a year, thanks for all the great videos :D

Hehe an amazing video my man! I always discover something new everytime I watch your videos

Awesome video! More like that please. First a generic coalesced koatls claw one and then maybe more tactic insights looking at board states and what to do for maximum output

Caleb, you are the man. Ive been competing with Starborne for a bit now, one thing I have loved as of late (not too different) is running an ally of 2 stormdrake guard and running the umbral spellportal just to cast the star seers no ward save spell through that. Makes him very dangerous from a range, that and also using Horrorghast or gemenids. Hope that helps!! keep it up!

This was so good! Well done. I playe against the army last night too, wish I had watched this first 🤣

Your Channel helps us so much. My 10 year old son, got the Seraphon Army Box for Christmas and now we are abusing your channel to learn how to play this incredible Magic-Space-Dinosaur-Army.

you da man Caleb hope this helps the algorithm

Update: Played another game last weekend, after carefully watching the video. It pointed me to some things I did wrong, which added to losing all the time. I actually managed to win my last game, by 24 to 12! 😊 Thanks a LOT!!!❤

Love it! I used to do this with my saurus Knights before GW threw that warscroll in the bin. RIP Knights 😢

Awesome video!!! ❤ Will be looking this through several times. Although, your sample list cannot be done. The Maelstrom is 50 points now. Warscroll Builder hasn't updated it yet 😢

We don't have any seraphon players in our area, so this was super helpful to watch!! I know this isn't the main purpose of your channel, but could you also do a "countering seraphon" series? I know you technically did one with stormkeep, but that also doubled as a unit overview.... and it sorta lost its structure in its 9 hour runtime haha

Anyone have any ideas to kitbash the saurus guard so they don't look so outdated and derpy? Thanks Caleb for this video, it's exactly what I was looking for. Just getting started and I'd be so lost without your videos!

Thanks for the video! This one was really helpful when it comes to the tactics, army composition, etc.. One thing I consider a must is taking an Andtorian Acolyte battalion because I found that it can be detrimental if my opponent has equal to or more Primal dice since most of our army does its work in the hero phase. I really like the example list as well, however with the points adjustment to Malevolent Maelstrom its now 2020, but there are a number of small changes that can be done to drop those 20 points, you could take hunters with bolas instead if skinks, or change a starseer to a Starpriest so that you have a throwaway spell caster, hardly any real risk tossing a Starpriest in the front to deal 5-10 d6 across your opponents army depending on deployment. Question, who do i put my 5+ward on from my starseer? And how exactly does selfless protectors work with a 5+ward? Can I bodyguard and 5+/6+ward? I know we used to due to the order of operations, not sure if that changed.

Great video! I think you are over 20 pts on your list though, i think you have Malestrom at 30 instead of 50. And yeah that spell shrug feels so bad when you run into it. I recently played against an OBR opponent and its straight 2+ across the board. It basically shut me down.

Thanks for doing this video! I'm new to AoS and Seraphon, but I've been accumulating models wherever possible. I'm drawn to Starborne, except owning Kroak and Endless Spells are not in my near future. I currently own - Slann StarMaster 10 Raptodons 10 Saurus Warriors 3 Kroxigor 1 Carnosaur w Old One rider 1 Bastilodon with Solar Engine 1 Astrolith Bearer 24 skinks 1 Skink Starpriest I'm considering picking up a SoC and or the Vanguard Box for a Trog, more Warriors and Krox. Maybe another Astro? Thoughts?

I think the Andtorian Acolytes battalion is much more valuable than the extra artifact. Pushing through critical spells and ensuring unbinds for extra CPP pays out much more than just the extra cast/CPP from tome imho

Additionally, it really sucks if your opponent has Andtorian Acolytes and you don't. That can be a real feel bad hero phase. Don't forget, you get to roll for that extra die in both your, and you're opponents hero phase.

The malevolent maelstrom is 50 pints though not 30 bringing the list total to 2030? Unless I'm doing something wrong in the app?

Hi Caleb, based on which rule phrase did you count the extra cp for the astrolith at 8:50? For me it reads like this: "At the start of your hero phase, you receive 1 cosmic power point for each friendly STARBORNE WIZARD or friendly STARBORNE ASTROLITH BEARER on the battlefield." If i counted him as wizard, i do not count him again as a bearer twice. i just add the tome to have an additional spell and so get my extra point. Please correct me if i am wrong, would be great to generate that extra point :P

Maelstrom is now 50points, not 30 so your list isn't 100% viable. However, everything else about this is awesome. Thanks for making this vid

So, I'm new to seraphon (thank you Christmas box!) I have been annoyed by the tzeentch hero phase. Do the two armies just cancel each other out?

@CalebHastings

7 ай бұрын

Yep! Tzeench ends up with the same 18" spell threat range... So whoever gets into range and hits all their spells will end up winning! Unless they are running a bunch of Pink Horrors... Those things are VERY hard to chew thru.

I don't think you get to double dip on the CPP for the Astrolith Bearer carrying the Arcane Tome, he still just gets 1 at the beginning of the turn. Or have I been playing it wrong?

Question on wording for cpp generation for the astrolith bearer w/ arcane tome. The wording says 1 cpp for each wizard OR astrolith bearer on the field. Does this mean you don’t get 2 points for an astrolith w/ arcane tome? Ps: Huge fan of your channel!

I can’t speak for anyone else but I’ve it ruled in 3 tournaments now that it only counts as 1. The reasoning each time was that it’s being defined a Node is what generates the CPP. And being a wizard / astrolith bearer is just what tags it as a Node. I still run it with the tome for the extra cast.

The algorithm knows me well enough to know what sub faction I play lol

Can you explain what you meant by troglodon getting a nerf? Would be much appreciated

@canadaborn1620

7 ай бұрын

I believe he meant that you used to be able to cast any number of spells from Kroak through the Troglodon. So the strategy was to teleport it up to 12” out then nuke their base with Kroak spells. They since nerfed it to only one spell from each of the Slann.

Is there no rule that when you choose a wizard to cast you must cast all the spells from that unit prior to moving to the next, some reason I thought that was the case.

@sebastiandodson189

Nope, I jump all over, I do recommend using a die and placing it next to that wizard so your opponent knows your not casting to many spells, the length of our hero phase can get questionable after the 9th Spell in a row.

I'm doing a crusade at 600 points and I was thinking of doing a sotek list any suggestions?

@CalebHastings

2 ай бұрын

Hmmm... 600 pts is an odd amount... I might try to maximize Cosmic Power Points as much as possible. Summoning units in a low point game is quite valuable! BUT... even if we fit in a Slann and another wizard (squeezed in a Terradon Chief with Arcane Tome to give us another cast)... that only gives us 7 CPP per turn. Just shy of the 8 pts needed to summon skinks every turn. Slann Starmaster (310) - General - Command Trait: Shaman of the Chilled Lands - Spell: Comet's Call Terradon Chief (90) - Artefact: Arcane Tome (Universal Artefact) 10 x Skinks (90) 10 x Skinks (90) Total: 580 So... maybe pivot to some Raptadons and Skink wizards: Skink Starseer (160) - General - Command Trait: Master of Star-rituals - Artefact: Sacred Stegadon Helm - Lore of Primal Frost: Hoarfrost Skink Starpriest (130) - Lore of Primal Frost: Merciless Blizzard 5 x Raptadon Chargers (150) 5 x Raptadon Chargers (150) Total: 590 That would enable you to buff up those Raptadons pretty well (Hoarfrost, Speed of Huanchi, Mystic Shield, and Serpent Staff). AND you would still be getting 5 CPP per turn!

Chronomatic Cogs allows a wizard to cast an extra spell (just Mystic Shield). Not a good use of points in most armies... But with a Slann who has Celestial Resonance (double the CPP for spells), it is quite useful!

Or if you take turn 2 being a Locast he can get another cast for Mystic Shield or an Endless spell.

Hold up, I though MW skip wards straight up, other than in special cases. So why is it so imperative to shut off wards before Kroak's spells? I must be missing something.

Yes, mortal wounds go straight through the normal armor save, but they can be stopped by WARD saves. 14.5 MORTAL WOUNDS Some attacks, spells and abilities cause mortal wounds. Do not make hit, wound or save rolls for mortal wounds. 14.3 WARDS Some abilities allow you to roll a dice to negate a wound or mortal wound. Abilities of this type are referred to as wards, and the dice roll is referred to as a ward roll.
