  1. A bit of a necro but I'm just coming back to the game. Aeslin is one of the only models in the faction that can drop a scheme marker from an attack. That attack also happens to hand out injured. Aeslin also can eat corpse/scrap markers for more scheme markers and denying resources to the enemy. In scheme marker heavy GG2 pools, that will become more important. She one of the most efficient models Neverborn has for dropping markers from range. She's not a front line model, but more of a finesse piece to make sure there is an Underbrush where Titania/Killjoy needs it and applying injured where possible to soften up targets for Titania/Rex/Rider/etc. My list back in GG0/1 usually started with Aeslin, Rider, and Hinamatsu. Aeslin can bring the Underbrush/Injured, Rider make sure Hina can get to where she needs to be, then Hina can lure them in to a kill box then poof, dead model. Yes, Knights can also germinate, but they are also 1" melee and Challenge has rarely mattered because anything that is coming to kill a squishy model can also kill an autumn knight. My knights usually end up shuffling up the table then getting gunned down because it doesn't trigger the parry defensive trigger and most guns/ranged attacks people bring, as 6 factions have models that ignore concealment, don't care about concealment to make hiding in underbrush worth it if they've played against Titania before. I do wish Counterspell was better and covered all Fae models within 6 instead of just models targeting Aeslin. I would gladly pay an extra stone over Knights. All of the Fae minions are pretty situational at best. Waldgeist, slow unless the map is littered with severe terrain to ambush through, decent for models that need to stay where they are put. I've taken Changelings instead to copy germinate or whatever I need as the game progresses as Stealth/Disguised is usually enough to get them to drop a marker before something walks up and bops it. Bultungin, a confused model with all the worst aspects of both keywords. Dies to a swift wind and is hamstrung by pack mentality/old ways. Easily replaced with Wicked Dolls and Eldrich Magic upgrade Rougaru, Df4, sz3, and 9 health on a 8ss minion in a faction littered with fantastic versatile models in that price range. Vasilisa is Armor+2, mv6, df/wp6 sz2, who can make those Wicked Dolls faster and turn them in to stitched when they die. Or for one more soulstone, Hinamatsu. Or one less for Tuco to get stealth, a ranged attack not needing a crow and a lure bonus action Serena Bowman is still pretty good even post nerf Razorspine Rattler is even a contender in this range due to it's unimpeded, better defenses AND ambush I didn't even get to Wrath the 7ss henchmen with Bring It and a 3" pulse for 2/3/4 damage to bring models in to underbrush and is better than the Autumn Knight in pretty much everything it does. Titania easily transitions over to an all-stars list leaving most of her keyword behind, but Aeslin is one of the Fae models I would keep in my list for GG2.
  2. I decided to remove all of my crews and games just to see if that's what it was and it all works correctly again. The only models I had in my crews that were touched were Stitched and Order Initiates if that helps narrow down a fix.
  3. As the title says. If I clear the cache in Chrome or Firefox I can load the site and get to the cards, make crews, etc. If I log in with my Google ID, the page stays at the loading initial graphic and throws a bunch of errors in the console. I'm wondering if I have an illegal character in a crew, or a model that was changed in the errata causing issues.

  4. Runic Binding is a dead scheme in my eyes for Neverborn outside of Zoraida and Lucius obeys. We just don't have the ease of dropping markers that other factions do with ranged scheme dropping outside of Aeslin's trigger.
  5. Poltergeist with Telekinesis removes all markers within 4"
  6. Add Doppelganger to the Lucius list and you have quite the gun line to wear down models coming in to you. That takes out Hold Up out of your choices and probably Power Ritual since that crew isn't super mobile unless you table them. Taking the gun line and using doppel as the friendly model you could easily score vendetta then move her up for Harness, or have Agent/Serena be the Claim Jump target Collodi I would expect Power ritual because model count and WW then maybe claim jump with Hina. Maybe harness since the dolls have stealth making them easier to deliver
  7. A good way to try to break down a keyword is to look at the strategies and figure out what you need to accomplish them. My core Dreamer list starts with Dreamer Ancient Pact Lord Chompy Bits Inhuman Reflexes Serena Daydream 1 Daydream 2 From there I build according to schemes and strategies with the remaining 32 stones. I like to keep at least 5 stones so in reality 27 stones to build the rest of the crew. Plant Explosives - You need to hire models that can get across the center line and drop a marker. Models like Coppelius and Widow Weaver are great at that since you can't attach bombs from summons, but they can take them from models they kill so a Stitched or Alp popping up next to a minion with a bomb might be an easy bomb to grab then drop on the opponent's side. Reckoning - My least favorite for Dreamer. You have to score more points by killing opponents, so you have to be careful what you throw in to your opponent to make sure you aren't giving up points. Summoning Daydreams are good as a distraction but they don't have an engagement range to keep models in place. They are insignificant so they don't count towards the strategy if they die. The Carver can get up to 4/4/6 with a in the duel with a stat 7 attach or abuse it's execute trigger to drain their resources or kill models for free Reckoning Points. Breath of Fire adds burning and blasts to wear down more models. Bonus action to hand out stunned and misery triggers to wear down armored opponents with multiple forms of damage. Serena to keep models alive but she's a staple in all my Dreamer lists. Turf War - Flipping markers and holding territories can be tough for squishier Nightmare models, you may need to hire out of keyword, dipping in to the awesome Versatile models we have. Hinamatsu for example slices up models nicely to flip markers to neutral and has surprising range with Rush. Not to mention Armor is uncommon in Neverborn so is unlikely to be teched against. They can use soulstones to keep them alive as well. Cursed Idols - Nightmare is pretty good here staying in keyword Dreamer is pretty good here. Summoning models where your opponent goes. You'll have Pact on Dreamer anyhow giving you +1 to initiative helping you dictate where idol markers go, Serena can top off models that push markers. Schemey models like Coppelius and Widow Weaver also shine getting across the board easily and push markers. WW can also summon off of dead constructs so hiring some Wicked Dolls to turn in to Stitched can be a good plan to get cheap stealth models to idol markers and punt them as far as possible, then convert them to stronger models.
  8. With Lucius you get a pretty fun combo with bringing Thoon in to Lucius and abusing the Frozen Trophy trigger to bury models in ice pillars. With Agent 46 and Doppelganger you can attempt to create a trophy 3 times due to how once per turn is worded. Yes, it's tome intensive and shouldn't be the only thing you should be trying to do but burying a key model can be devastating. Burying 3 could be a NPE.
  9. Same here Ezuma. I have no table experience with Lucius, Marcus, Eurpides or Nekima so it's hard to rank them outside of "on-paper they should be good here"
  10. I use Wrath for that. Same cost, Terrifying 11, Bring It! giving Dora and Candy Mv7 and since neither of them have actual attacks, no unneeded damage to Wrath. Adding in Sin tokens you can change the target of attacks or put out irresistible damage against models with sin tokens feels thematic to Dora
  11. Any focused Long Carbine ignores concealment and gets around hard to wound. That makes Titania crews unhappy in general. Clockwork Rifles + Advanced Sights (Hans, Katanaka Snipers, Freikorps Scouts, and Rami Lacroix) can focus on a stat 5 against a df 4 model and freely hit. Probably cheating in a ram for crit strike for up to 6 damage. From their deployment zone. My opponents tend to be Outcast or crews that have access to at least a long carbine which has skewed my experience for sure. 5 factions have access to models that outright turn off Fae's defensive tech and some can do it from 21" away. This just reinforces the need to stick closer to Wyrd's suggestion of 40-50% terrain. Once we started playing on more filled out tables, I could take Rougaru and deliver them to where I needed them to go without getting plinked by snipers on the way in.
  12. That's a 10SS minion at that point. You could hire Killjoy for 10, Hinamatsu for cheaper and can use SS, or for 1 more a Hooded Rider. This might just be my own hang up but putting that much in to a model with abysmal defense and no way to reduce damage outside of HtW, smart opponents with guns won't let a Rougaru get close to their scheme runners. It could be my meta, but if I declare Fae my opponent is bringing guns that ignore concealment and anything that ignores HtW. It doesn't help that I usually play against Outcast so I see Hans a lot. Nearly every faction have guns that ignore concealment and/or cover.
  13. I haven't looked in to Savage all that much, how does that work? Or is it just aggressive beat stick that can fly across the table in a turn?
  14. What dual master lists are people playing with that aren't X + Zoraida? Off hand here are some ideas: Pandora (Leader) + Dreamer looks potentially good. Hire in The Carver for an additional Nightmare model to give shielded and push around, all the WP duels should make getting summons out pretty easy. Titania (Leader) + Nekima - Things need dead on the other side of the board. Those that survive have Underbrush to keep them on their side Lucius (Leader) + Dreamer - Poor mans Zoraida but you get Arcane Reservoir, and Elite models like Alan Reid with Boring Conversation for pulse WP duels and card draw
  15. Very true, if Sparks eats it early, having another healer would be useful. It's also good for denying the second Dig Their Graves point
