    calling @Crowsfoot , and any other gamers in the AoS verse.

    I've been playing age of sigmar locally with my cities of sigmar army. I've started to really enjoy the game and figured it will be high time come new year to rebase/rebuild my lizardmen into a seraphon force. Does anyone have some tips for army prep? Are sunbloods better than oldbloods? how about a slaan?

    basically, i have no idea where to go with the army but have all the troops a lizard could ask for.

    I'd like to start with 1k points.

    For the 1k Summoning List, what units do you typically have in reserve to be summoned?

    Skinks, Razordons, additional Ripperactyls/Terradons, and maybe a Carno.

    Hey everyone, sorry i couldn't find the best fitting thread for my question, nor did i find the answer to it. So i'm working on some different lists with the EotG.
    My first question is: can i put weapon-artifacts on it? for example blade of the thirteen dominions? (if i get tis right i thought this could work good in combat)
    the other is: what artifacts would you pick for the engine?
    thanks for helping me out.

    first question yes it's a hero. if it has the hero key word it can hold an artifact. but weapons can not be put on mount attacks so no horns.
    second question either ethereal amulet or something else that makes it harder to kill it's a linchpin to your army you need it alive

    Hello again ^^
    I have another question for the summoning shadowstrike list. I‘m planing some matches for an upcoming tournament. It will be 1250 pts.
    So my question is what would you recommend for the last points? i thought about bringing a old blood on carno which could be a major target for my enemy or at least its giving him a hard time beside 6 rippers while i collect the ccp‘s for bringing another carno or eotg.
    And there we get to my other idea, instead of the carno I take the eotg, first close to the slann and maybe some good dice rolls and then crushing some lines while collecting ccp‘s.
    What are your thoughts and strategic tipps? thanks for helping me out :)

    SKINKS! Focus on objectives. Try to always be scoring. Use your Rippers to kill enemy units that are good at holding objectives. If you can remove their 10+ model count units from the table it become much easier for Skinks to do their job.

    Thanks, the skink thing probably is a good strategy in general. But now I can wait for the new tome ;)
