dont think he has received your results as other tourneys since have been updated on the site.

maybe due to that steampowered laptop you were using?

interested. will have to check with the better half 1st

decker, actually nothing, this tactical option is deleted from the game. Maybe Ice Gamins would be nice, cause they hurt MI attackers, but they aren`t as resilent as Metal Gamins has been before the removing of H2K. But they aren`t Foundries, so no in theme units.

It`s an subjective impression, but it looks like some other faction have more powerful units on this level, and those are still untouched (e.g. compare a Rotten Belle to a Railworker). 6 month passed and my opinion wasn`t changed by anything i`ve seen or heard.

or compare a depleted to a metal gamin. ok insignificant but they work for a few schemes/strats and are 8 wounds, HtW, HtK, explodey death for same SS.

as corner case as metal gamin now are maybe but also alot tougher

usually, dont think their packs have ever stated that but I may be wrong  isnt that GG standard?

for mei feng I like to have Joss along, and willie (more foundry goodness to benefit from hard worker)

add in an effigy for more hard to kill constructs with condition removal and you pretty much have a crew sorted

marcus crews are very Ml based so as you have that stuff already I would go with him.

beasts for him that are good are the cerberus, silurids, blessed of december. going to other factions I also really like rogue necro and dawn serpent

mei feng is my favourite master so can asl be good

PoM would be better if it was at least an until end of turn effect. as it is you cannot keep it there against most people

Havent used them since the errata. their damage output is minimal, hardly any more survivable than other gamin. would rather have fire or ice that have ranged attacks, ok damage and even explode when they die.

basically the errata neutered any use they may have for their points. maybe a 3pt model now?

should be, they usually are but it hasnt gone up yet. whether thats with the rankings guys or the fact Ross was using a steam powered laptop I dont know

Mei Feng.

also mei feng.

kaeris a close second though

only played against a rat engine once but it didnt seem as bad as some of your experiences. only lost really due to my poor scheme choices.

yes he got to out activate me but it didnt effect my game plan too much but then I had Willie opposite his big beater and wp17 test to charge can turn away some on 1st turn.

by turn 3 I actually had the numbers back down to equal (or even outnumbering him eventually) 

joss - makes so many of my lists

arcane effigy

arcane emmisary (multiple uses with his upgrades)

rail worker

johan (cheating a bit like an above poster)

another I should hopefully be making

I wouldn't really count a master as a summoner unless they have an action which does nothing other than summon a model. Levi just gets to make dudes as another feather in his oversized cap.

this, hes not a real summoner, yes I can summon using him but its a side effect of killing things and aboms whilst annoying will usually only get 1 in a turn so not massive summoning anyaway

Panzer, any chance of rulespack for this yet?

I actually prefer to face summoners as it means their master is usually doing something else with his AP rather than scoring strats/schemes or doing damage to my crew. It also tends to be resource intensive so they are using their high cards and often stones to bring stuff in that is usually damaged so is actually easy to kill. If nico spends all his AP bringing in a couple of half wound things and I can kill them in a couple of AP then it balances out.

I have faced good players that have used Nicodem, Kirai, Ramos and Dreamer and so far havent had issues. In fact when facing ressers in recconoiter (or its 2016 equivalent) I have expected Nico and been able to counter it happily. I would rather face some of these summoners than some of the other masters the factions bring (if you want to bring summoners to tourneys craig rather than Lynch I would be happier  )

would make sense, also means they cant regain reactivate to activate again (which I know they cant but provides some backing for this)

is the rulespack going up soon? thanks

I think if nick pratt ever gets around to buying his ticket he may give you serious competition for the wooden spoon  

not had problems yet, and you can always alpha it after an 8" walk from marcus if need be. also the stalk can be used for him as much as any other creature with stalk. or when using the emmisary discard a card for another walk action if need be
 

depends on play style I guess but I do like him.

I always like rogue necro, bit of staying power and 3 heads, plus can stalk someone but the cerberus can make use of it

I usually do anyway, price of progress, vapormancy and seismic claws. hard worker goes on kang

this is why mei feng is probably the best master for it, with seismic claws and good placing combined with hardworker 0 action she can kill pretty much every spider ramos brings for 1AP, leaving her free to kill other things too

Evil Nun, sold!

And really, 13 Wds with no defensive abilities seems rather squishy to me. Hope she has some upgrades with defences, or perhaps some action activated defence.

Can attack safely from 18" away, think thats a pretty good defensive tech. and can heal from people dying within 8"
