Hello everyone the forum looks a lot different since I was last here and I like the changes. I was hoping you could help me, I'm hoping to start with The Thunder Starter set and hopefully end up with around 50 points worth of stuff in the end to play with, my main question is how many models il need to pick up. But also id like to ask: How does the normal box come to in points and how does it play, How are the new plastics Wyrd are using, quality, detail and durability wise (honesty would be appreciated), Are the 10 thunders a fun faction, How is version 2 of the rules, A general estimation of cost for 50 points would be nice I'm not after anything competitive just 50 points would be nice, Thanks for reading and any help would be appreciated.

good job , looks like i got here 2 late to compete gg ratty an placing it together

Id take at least 1 librarian in ur list: removing the suits from daydreams stats is going to be worth it, having to use his very valuable cards, + he does blast damage take a specialist for his blast damage and he blows up when he dies which is enough to kill Alps. ur aim should be to kill daydreams even if u only kill 1 because it will stop the dreamer from doing what he wants. besides von giving everyone slow to die is like the bain of the dreamers glass cannon crew. a trapper may be handy to try and snipe off daydreams then repositioning back to safety or just put him in a very good shooty spot because of his range and damage the dreamer player cant afford to leave home alone Now as well when u got models like specialist that will tempt out LCB cos me wont wanna use his alps on you, things with slow to die really hurt him, he a bit ollldd squishy. Make sure u rember when the dreamer and his alp are up he can make em all terror, so keep hardass up If the dreamer ends up at the back of the combat remember that u can jump over everything and with ur 1inch range weapon its easy to egnore the other daydreams and get a kill if you can kill the daydreams off and pin dwn the dreamer it becomes a slogging match, this is very good as the dreamer struggles with them, oh and hit LCB at ever chance hes so squishy

what crew do u play?

I have, and iv used it a few times, i was listing the things that make me weary when im playing the dreamer, But its not meant to be easy to pick apart, the group i play in have decided yes he is a very hard master to beat when played ''well'' but all masters when played well aren't easy to beat. If u take fast things that can kill off daydreams when they spawn it reduces the dreamers options, when he loses his movement options, problem solved. and if ur going to say ''i cant get to the daydreams'' well then there nowhere that's going to bug you atm and when i said that masters are less effected because chances are the ss will let them pass, if they do then pritty muc any master can take down the week models, and unless things have changed in the rules manual then the dreamers shadowy form can be ignored my careful placement on your part

theres always something that every faction can take that would screw over a dreamer player, think of it this way; alps don't work on masters (unless ur really unlucky) and there about 12-15 points of his crew. think what you could take for 15 points that would screw alps, (In b4 u say my faction doesn't have anything that can) For ressers; punk zombies (slow to die with an AoE), Crooked men Shikome (not sure if she would take the damage but she is unaffected by the slows) Gaki would do a lot of damage b4 they die, Guild papa loco (going boom), witchling stalkers (going boom, and been solid on close combat), executioner, does it need saying Sonnia (inferno) Arca Electrical creations, gamin Arachnids Lol duet, Crescendo is a spell so just run in, or if they drop on u, ur slow, but deal 2 aoe's and thats dead alps Neverborn Lilith (whirling death to all within 2 inch, if ur careful u wont even suffer exhaust wounds) Outcasts Misaki her threat range or even just the 1 attack with thunder would cripple/kill all the alps Freikorps specialist, an im sure theres moar, i can understand why people thought the alp bomb was brutal when its 1st used, because ur not prepaired for it, but once you now what ur up against, u remeber there basically def 4 with 3 wounds.
