You'll also want to put The Peaceful Waters on Shen.

Ototo would be great, especially since alternative art already exists for him. The same for Yan Lo.
The 10T crewboxs were Wyrd's first plastics, and some of them are showing their age. Wouldn't mind an entire new Rail Crew or Dark Debts. -

Ok so that all makes sense now... and a fasted Graves can show you the door 3 separate times if you do your distancing right.
Nope.
Show Ya the Door says "This model may only target a friendly model with this Action once per Turn." -
It's mostly a corner case issue, and I don't think I've ever had it come up in a game. It has been discussed before because of some odd interactions... There should be a thread or two in the rules forum about how it interacts with Vasilisa.

Glad to see we have a thread like this now!
For my first game of the TFL, I have the following. Opponent declared Guild.Corner Deployment, Guard the Stash.Game 1:Convict Labor, Take Prisoner, Leave Your Mark, Catch and Release, Public Demonstration. -
It's far too much work to be worthwhile, but you could take Sensei Yu with Fermented River Style, and hope they fail the Tn 11 walk duel. An Akaname could use Spray Filth on him to up the Poison condition, but then you probably want Promising Disciple as well. And maybe a Terracotta Warrior to switch styles.

5) Silly Jank! Wokou Raider can be in a Misaki crew due to infiltration... They prevent the opponent from cheating attack actions that target it's Df... have her leap frog with Misaki to be her Misdirect target, hehe. No cheating for you! Obviously this isn't ideal, but it's a fun interaction that could come in handy against low min damage attacks
hmm Does Misdirection ever actually change the target though? The Raider suffers the effect from the attack, but that attack action didn't target a Wonkou Raider's defense, it targeted Misaki's defense.
1) An obvious but favorite one of mine so far: Terracotta warriors let McCabe swap around what upgrades he can pass out to minions.
So, Ancient Treasures says to follow "all of the usual restrictions for attaching upgrades at the start of the game."
So the relevant ones here " A model may not purchase more than one upgrade with the same name" and " A crew may not have the same Upgrade more times than the Upgrade's Rare restriction value."
None of McCabe's upgrades are Limited, nor are they Rare. Is attaching an upgrade equivalent to purchasing an upgrade? I'm going to assume yes because that seems like the intent. Assuming purchase=attach, then McCabe can't purchase Glowing Saber and Elixir of Life, and then have the Terracotta warrior discard the Elixir and attach a second Glowing Saber.
What happens though if you include the Emissary? He attaches one of McCabe's upgrade not already attached to any model in the crew at the start of the game. So, McCabe has the Saber and Elixir of Life. Emissary attaches Badge of Speed. Terracotta Warrior then uses Ancient Treasures on McCabe to discard the Elixir and attach the Badge of Speed. Doing so follows all of the usual restrictions for attaching upgrades at the start of the game. It seems possible then to have a double of any of McCabe's upgrades.

Amanjaku might make the Emissary an auto include for me. Being able to use Prophecies in Thunder on turn 3, turn 4 and turn 5 is just insane.

A special prize was offered for the first person to run and win with a list that consisted of a only a single type of model, plus a Master. Other competitors were Misaki with 7 Ronin(won it), and Kirai with 8 Belles.
Corner, Guard the Stash, Mark for Death, Setup, Exhaust and Take Prisoner.
McCabe, Badge of Speed, Elixir of Life, Promises
5 Jorogumo
Setup(Nekima) and Mark for Death
Lilith
Primordial Magic
Nekima
Doppleganger
Barbaros
Mr.Graves
Mysterious Effigy(I think)
Convict Labor and Mark for Death
Turns 1 and 2 were walk actions, placing scheme markers near the Stash markers, and dancing around with threat ranges. After that it was piece trading, while I used nimble and Wander the Earth to get a Jorogumo directly in the middle of my scheme marker triangle but within 3" of Nekima after she activated. Triggered Entrap, and scored Setup. Last activation, after drawing a hand where my high card was 6 for the turn, Barbaros pushed a Jorogumo off the Stash marker and off the scheme marker my opponent needed for his final point for Convict Labor. Final score 10-9 Neverborn.
Barbaros scored all of his Mark for Death points with For the Brood. McCabe's pushes, nimble and Wander the Earth combined with their 3" melee allowed me to waste a lot of my opponents AP since he had to move into position to attack with everyone apart from Nekima, and then she wasn't in range to use Black Blood. Ml5 was off-set by Promises, and wasn't much of an issue apart from when I foolishly tried to attack Lilith.

It works fine, but you definitely need a back-up in case the cards go against you. The smoke bombs are actually incredibly useful for making sure your minions survive the turn.

My objection here would be that this thing comes on a 70mm base (not listed on that page, but I looked into using this guy as an Emissary proxy a while back).
You can make it work on a 50, sort of. I've been using it as an Emissary proxy, and will probably mount a rider on it for Yasunori.

They don't have a rare limit, so it can be fun, though not necessarily competitive, to run lots of Jorogumo and mess with people. Hunting Party, Public Demonstration, and Occupy Their Turf are all lots of fun with multiple Jorogumo, and maybe Smoke and Shadows. I ran 5 of them with McCabe one round of a tournament recently, and the list did better than it had any right to.

Misaki is probably one of the best models for Headhunter, as far as being a soloist is concerned. Provided she has AP remaining after killing a model and dropping a head marker, she can push towards it with her "Next Target" trigger. If you're playing the Emissary as well, and are within range of "The Thunder Calls", that generally will get you the AP you need to pick it up. Other good options are Shenlong and Sensei Yu (with the right styles, that is), who can use "Focus" conditions as (1) Interact actions.
The timing of "Next Target" and dropping a head marker is disputed, and unresolved. See the following threads, all of which nest within each other, and lack consensus.

I rarely get to play Henchman Hardcore, but I've been wanting to try out Ototo with Recalled Training and Call the Thunder, 2 Komainu, and Yin.

True, but part of the ability with Stones on the River is removing a condition. As the player controlling how the conditions and abilities are applied, you can determine the order they're done. So you can apply the condition, and then just simply remove it. Unless you're targeting yourself or Shen Long, it's not really a problem.
Seems like there was some confusion on the topic, but the consensus is that Brutal would happen before resolving Stones on the River, so you could remove the applied condition. The only issue is that the argument relies on other FAQ entries in order to figure out the timing.
-
Chiaki can heal on a trigger. Obsidian Oni can heal a non-leader with an upgrade attaced. The problem with Sensei Yu is that Stones on the River uses Ml, so Brutal goes off. So, while TT doesn't have a lot of good options for healers, especially compared to a Librarian, many of our models have self-heals. Ama, Ototo, Kang, Sidir, Izamu, Shadow Emissary, Dawn Serpent, Illuminated, Low River Monks and Jorogumo all have some form of healing.

A build that I've been trying has involved the vaunted sniper squad with Toshiro with command the graves and a peasant. I'll actually start the game with no upgrades on Shen and Promising Disciple on Senseii Yu. Shen's first 0 will be the peasant interaction for a scheme and another peasant. The non-summoned peasant will then sac for Shen to get Wandering River Style.
**This doesn't work. Shen Long needs to have an upgrade attached to use "Monk of Many Styles." The last clause of the ability says "This model may discard a Limited Upgrade it has attached to attach the chosen upgrade." No discarding, no attaching. See this thread for discussion.**
Toshiro will use the corpse to summon an Ashigaru
***Also doesn't work. Because the Peasant is sacrificed, it doesn't drop a corpse marker. You would need to kill the peasant, usually with Toshiro, to get a corpse, and use it for an Ashigaru. ***

Mei Feng(Ten Thunders)
- Vapormancy
- Seismic Claws
- Misdirection
Emberling(Ten Thunders)
Mechanized Porkchop(Gremlins)
Toshiro(Resurrectionists)
- Command the Graves
Metal Gamin(Arcanists)
Wastrel(Guild)
Illuminated(Neverborn)
And then an Outcast model of your choice like the Freikorps Trapper, or Johan, or Lazarus.

Nino made me realize the importance of defining every bit of terrain on the table. It was Squatter's Rights, along with some Interact heavy schemes, and my opponent deployed Nino on the chimney of a building with a pitched roof. We had declared that models could not stand on the roofs, but neglected to define the chimneys. The only ranged attack I had was Lilith's Wicked Vines. It was not a fun game and, subsequently, all of those chimneys were removed.

Bkfaux had 7 neverborn and 6 arcanists out of 24 players. However, if you look at posted events on warscore for the northeast , none of the other events are as skewed, not that there's that many, yet.

There are a few players on the UWS. Best bet is to join the NYC Malifaux group, and advertise there. https://www.facebook.com/groups/1838545016433456/
