The time is now, Games Workshop just previewed more of their 2020 LVO the Las Vegas Open.

Las Vegas Open 2020

We saw a ton of previews already from GW for the 2020 release calendar at the new years open, and have been hearing a ton of rumors about new point elves, Psychic Awakening and more.

When AoS first dropped, Seraphon were sitting as one of the oldest armies at the highest tiers in terms of competitiveness. Their spells and synergies were fantastic and they all came from old models. However, now it’s almost their time to shine once again. Warhammer Community just revealed what’s on the way to the faction from the 2020 LVO. Take a look at the latest!

 

Seraphon Warscroll Cards Spotted Early

The Warscroll cards are pretty indicative of the classic GW faction support that they’ve been giving to every army since AoS 2.0 dropped. That being the Battletome, a new terrain piece, endless spells, etc.

The new battletome fully explores the origins and nature of the Seraphon in the Mortal Realms. You’ll have the chance to find out how the original refugees from the world-that-was became the celestially charged Starborne, and how the Seraphon are changing into the Coalesced – whatever that means. 

We can all probably agree that it was about time for Seraphon to have their time in the spotlight. And while Aelves (Lumineth Realm-lords) were also announced at the LVO, both factions are more than likely going to be hitting shelves almost back-to-back with each other.

However, it’s reasonable to think that you might get certain bonuses to Wizards casting spells near it.

Seraphon are about to call a new book home. But in the light of Lumineth Realm Lords being revealed, will you have to choose one faction over the other? Could that altar-looking model be a terrain piece? What kind of rules do you think it’ll have?
