Stryder

Only complaint: Stop winning your own tournaments! :-P

I'll PM my address in a moment...

I am indeed, though a word of warning, I'm not very good and only have McM right now!

Do you have brains? If so, then it's a deal.

I should be there...asked James to send payment.

Entry list updated with those who have paid. Still negotiating with Jamie for number of cakes/cookies

I am informed that there will be at least 2 cakes and 'loads' of cookies.

Paul unavailable

So...any resser players need a partner? You are required to bring a crew and some cards that explain what they do. Brains are optional, but preferred (especially big, juicy ones...mmm...braaains...)

Paul's looking to get the day off, hopefully. If he can, I'm sure we'll be there to defend our crown.

Liam has gone back to uni...at least we'll get some peace to prepare for the event.

No, the loud one has them.

Have you got my lists?

And I place 100ss on Oli winning his first game...

Count me in.

Jamie and I will both be attending this. Payment to come soon.

Resurrectioniest Faction Leader and Player Ref: Dunno? Maybe Ant Hoult as he was volunteered!

Fine...

As to my finishing place, just take the 0 off my entrant number...

Can't please everyone, just have fun

I'm sorry, what the hell is happening to Harrogate? When did we become sporting players?

Unfortunately, Liam Toop is still attending the GT so no other good news to report...

You think you've got it bad? Jamie and I have to share a room with him...

I see from your location that you live in North Yorkshire... so do I. If you want to come down to our gaming group one night, I can show you how to play Kirai in various ways, and let you decide what you want to get for yourself. Contact me via PM if you want more info.

PM recieved, but unable to read for some reason. (Something to do with the site). Try E-Mail instead: icaryder@yahoo.com

You guys seem to know me better than I know myself somehow...

I'm not sure York would have been ready for that experience!

Not to worry, he's coming with me (Insert evil chuckle here).

My own views:

1) Would the Arcane Effigy be useful for Raspi? I am guessing it would as it would be able to stay near her most of the time. It's useful. Getting the extra cast along with some damage potential can be useful, and if you take her Avatar then it'll hang around after she manifests. You do lose the ability to always give her Armour 2 though, as the Arcane cannot magical extension, as well as the + to spell damage flips (which can be countered by simply using the extra cast to channel).

2) In a crew, how much of an auto-include is Snow Storm? He isn't. While he's a very good model, he just never seems to be worth the full 11 stones. Useful in things like Recon and Destroy Evidence, less useful in Claim Jump or Treasure Hunt

3) Is it always worth taking both Silent Ones? Not if you're taking Snow Storm. Too many expensive things will give your opponent too much activation control.

4) The Blessed of December.... is this worth the fairly high cost, also being unique? Hell yes.

5) I see/read that the Ice Golem is fairly redundant. Is this really the case or does it have its uses? It's useless. My personal opinion is that Wyrd accidently printed it's soulstone cost upside-down.

6) Does Raspi work well with non-December minions? I am thinking of things like Gunsmiths, etc that emphasise her ranged combat. She's amazing as an 'addition' to a Kaeris crew.

7) How good is Raspi vs spirits - i assume fairly good as her attacks are magical. Spirits hate Tina more than any other master.

The fault lies not with the resser faction, but with the other factions for having nothing living anymore...which is what stuff like Crooligans and Hanged are good against. Of course, if everything was living, then would ressers be OP? Methinks yes.

Finally made 100 posts...

Current provisional Harrogate team divisions:

1: Craig, Paul, James

2: Adam, Mitch, Steve

3: Liam, Sibley, Ant

Unsure if we take 1 'Team Alpha' or 3 of 'Team Beta'

Oh god the fancy dress competition....another chance for Belgium to take back prizes

It will be mine this year...

Liam's payment of 3 tickets is for himself, Sibley and me. We're still not sure how we're dividing up the teams though, but our 9th 'member' is Mitch.

4-5 Night Terrors, too.

They are for the other ressers. Kirai doesn't need them at all.

Another thing to consider is that, at least the way I play Pandora, my hand is almost always geared towards Pandora's use. She is very easy to kill if she runs out of the ability cheat or use SS on her defensive WP flips, so I tend to hoard cards for her alone

This is what Jack Daw is for.

Don't tempt me...
