===Start Collecting!===

Arguably the best way to start your army is to get two Start Collecting! boxes. With the advent of now having to choose from both Skinks and Saurus units, now we have some of the best ways to make an army faster and having welcome discounts for buying all the models compared as buying them on their own.

Really, that easy. 2 Saurus Warriors units, 3 Saurus Knights units and an extra Knight that can be converted to a Scar-Veteran on Cold One, and two Carnos/Trog as you want, and 4 extra Warriors that can be used as summoning fodder or conversion material. Also if you're willing to field some cheeky conversions, there's a [http://www.lustria-online.com/threads/getting-the-most-from-your-start-collecting-seraphon-box.20560/ useful post] at Lustria Online that details how to really pimp this kit far beyond GW ever intended, squeezing out a solid 800+ points per box.

You could simply buy more Start Collecting! boxes, maybe another 3. This is because one box comes with 12 Warriors (because is a relatively old sprue and the regular box has 20 Warriors), so you can have 60 Warriors between the 5 boxes. You will also get another 24 Knights, but they are a pretty viable unit (unlike Oldhammer latest editions), and you will never, ever, will have extra Carnosaurs. They are just beautiful models, worth every cent.

'''NEW FOR THE NEW BATTLETOME: START COLLECTING! SKINKS!''' 12 nimble mini-lizards, with 3 flying cavalry models, who you can use as objective grabbers or dive bombers, given their high movement, a Bastie, which means you get a Bastie, and a Starpriest, which means you get a Starpriest. 


The point here is to share and <s>pillage, and steal</s> collaborate ideas to build an army on the shape, but you should think about playing what you like the most (as always, fun is first, as long as you don't act like [[That Guy]]). Also, we'll try to suggest you easy ways to get a strong force while trying to save the most money possible, which shouldn't be that hard, since [[GW]] have been releasing bundles with decent saving on a constant basis <s>WHAT KIND OF [[HERESY]] IS THIS?</s>''). Keep in mind that with all the different special rules, opponents may get a bit tired of hearing Seraphon ignore that (e.g. Slann wizards can dispel or unbind spells anywhere on the battlefield). Sucks to be them.


Fortunately, Seraphon has a wide array of units, and everyone is viable.

From a single Start Collecting! you get:

* 90 points from 10 Saurus Warriors.
* 100 points from 5 Saurus Knights. 
* 260 points from a Troglodon OR 210 from a Saurus Scar-Veteran on Carnosaur OR 230 from a Saurus Oldblood on Carnosaur.
*''Total:'' 450 points using a Troglodon OR 400 points using a Scar-Veteran on Carnosaur OR 420 points using an Oldblood on Carnosaur.

Not counting the possible extra models you can use: 110 for a Knight converted or counting as a Scar-Vet on Cold One (damn, you could simply use the 3 extra Knights as Scar-Vets too), 110 from using the free Saurus Oldblood on foot if you built a Troglodon and 70/120 from getting creative to use your Skink Oracle as a Skink Priest or Starpriest, and you could even use Jungle Swarms from the Cold One's bits if you are allowed.
