  1. Hi guys. M2E Killjoy arrived for me this morning (what a model!) and I am planning on running him this weekend so I just wanted to clarify his Blood Price ability before using him. Blood Price states at the beginning of KJ's activation if it isn't engaged it must Charge if there is a legal target and that this action only costs 1 AP. So, would Killjoy have to charge a friendly model if it's within his 8" range (6Cg + 2Ml)? Because you can target your own models, with other abilities, so I am assuming you would be forced to do so with KJ's charge to? What is defined as a 'legal target'. Also, something discussed at my gaming group was that a 1AP charge still grants 2 Attack actions, is that true? I have never had a model with a 1AP Charge and haven't faced it either so wasn't too sure (anyone know the page or section this rule is on in the mini rulebook?). Finally, I'm 99% sure, but I might as well ask, Blood Sacrifice states this model may begin the game buried. Obviously the word 'may' means he can start on the table from First Turn, yes? Thanks.
  2. Wow, I really hadn't considered Pine Box in that way before, great replies guys. Now that you all have explained it, and considering how powerful Paralyze is in 2nd because of having less turns, it actually is incredibly powerful potentially locking up a model for even a single turn and causing them to miss and activation. Plus, if your boxed model has the same willpower of 6, and you draw a 13, if you decide, it's not getting out bar a Red Joker, which even then is a hell of a price. Plus as stated, you can always 2AP rebox if you feel like being tricky lol.
  3. Well spotted, didn't look at that part. Seems slightly excessive, but there you go.
  4. The Undertaker ability I Can Use That states that you draw a card when a model is 'killed or sacrificed'. Discarding a corpse counter, which in this case is a mindless zombie, doesn't count as either of those things IMO, either killing or sacrificing so I doubt you draw a card.
  5. Add me to those that dislike the change. Got the Flesh Construct w/ Victim and can honestly say the new card looks cheap as hell. If the change was made to save wyrd money, fair enough I suppose, I understand how small things can have a serious impact on overhead, but it isn't saving monbey or god forbid its more expensive, it is an rubbish and unneccessary change IMO.
  6. With Pine Box offensively I am guessing the strategy is to simply find a 'big nasty' with lowish WP and stick them in the box and hopefully neutralize them for the game? As I said with Death Marshal discussions Pine Box 9/10 only gets talked about for transfering your own slow models safely to the front lines.
  7. Hey guys I was eyeing up possibly grabbing the Lady J Boxset as I both like the models, but also could use some of it to add to my Ortega crews (particularly a Marshal or two and The Judge). However, after looking at the abilities of the Marshal is it really worth 6ss? And would it ever be worth it to buy all 3 of them for 18ss or are they now firmly in a 1 to 2 range? What do they bring for 6ss? 1. H2W - DF 5 - WP 6 : So they are mid range tough with decent WP, probably will take two AP from the majority of models to kill them. 2. Drop scheme markers upon death: Useful for a few schemes 3. Ml / Sh 5 attacks with 2/3/4 and 2/3/5 with Ram Critical and none built in. 4. Pine Box - Not bad, you can transfer slow models slightly faster, but as that isn't a big deal for me it would be used more offensively for me, and you don't see many guides or suggestions for how to effectively use it that way. That's sort of it. This model feels very much like a 5.5ss model, its probably too good to be a straight 5 but its lacking something to make it 6ss. Maybe a built in Ram on the peacebringer Sh attack would have made it solid 6ss territory. Anyone else agree?
  8. CCK is Ht 1 so wouldn't count as blocking him even if perfectly positioned. But that kind of raises another point; seemingly the chances of a 30mm model blocking LoS to another 30mm is rare to impossible, as it would practically be unable to ever fully obsure another models base without even the tiniest bit still showing. Models would literally have to stand in a straight line to do so. I'm not complaining btw, I think walking soft cover human shields would probably suck, but I think for positioning purposes 30mm don't have to worry very much then about another 30mm model blocking line of sight. Suppose that makes 40mm/50mm even more valuable as they can literally block LoS entirely.
  9. Thanks, seems surprising thats not the case. Strange that Seamus can't hide behind one of his Belles for dear life and use her as a human shield lol! Thanks for the quick reply.
  10. Hi guys. If a model is between you and a target, partially covering it from LOS does the target model get Soft Cover? So for example: A -------------------------- C A B C A B C B So model A is shooting model C, but model B is between the two obscuring one side of model C's base from LoS. In this instance would model C gain soft cover. Thanks.
  11. Seamus and McMourning Cards would still be nice McMournings could include making Flesh Constructs, summoning dogs, guild autopsies? As for Seamus... well would still be nice dammit!
  12. Hey guys. I was just wondering if anyone knew the material used in the making of the official cards and then now to print double sided so they turnout the same (rather than sticking them together which I doubt is the actual method used?) The reason I ask is that when using Wave 2 models it feels really weird having cards made from A4 standard paper and even cutting them out and prit sticking them back to back still feels very meh when using them alongside the offical ones. Any help would be much appreciated.
  13. I havent used this crew since the Wave 1 beta so I will be honest and say actually didn't realise that about Lure on Belles. So this is where I start to get bogged down, because its a walk and not a push, the only requirement being the walk ends as close as possible to the luring model you can: 1. Move around intervening objects/models, the movement would still have to be in a straight line as its the fastest point between A. and B. and all that, but you can take a walk over a height 1 terrain piece or circumvent a model between the Belle and the target. 2. Get disengaging strikes? That sums it up doesn't it? Or am I missing anything. Thank for raising that point, I was just going to use it as a push to be honest lol.
  14. Had thought of that, but she is 6ss, could just buy a Dead Doxy for that and save all the bother. Its basically if there is a method that doesn't take you too far out of what you A. Would naturally bring B. Isn't too resource / Ap intensive. Don't forget Seamus, more than likely will have a chance to summon at least one naturally in every game, so its more of a first Turn try to sneak in a more valuable model (6ss) for less than the asking price. Its a good sign though that we have largely moved away from all that stuff in 1.5 of Kirai, McMourning first turn nuking things to get some 6-10ss of extra model for usually a Desperate Merc and something else equally cheap and expendable.
  15. Would Sybelle going down a Corpse Bloat be too much do you think? Corpse Bloat is in of itself useful for exploding corpses too and Seamus tends not to use many Corpse Counters in a given game anyway (usually 2-3 I find unless you use Red Chapel Killer of course). She features in 90% of Seamus lists, is comparitively cheap, 8ss (10ss with Bloat) although that immediately drops her down to 6 Wounds which isn't the best for 10ss investment. I am trying a Nurse in lists this week so healing is available, but your losing a full activation to heal due to paralyze on Take Your Meds Heal, and your into more card resources / AP if you go down the healing up route. There is always the middle option I suggested, take a dog, shoot it with 50. and baring a black joker its dead as min dmg is 4, then arise my sweet and continue with turn. This saves you two SS unless you need to burn 1 for a crow suit, but you still save 1 which is a bit meh. EDIT With this method you could combine it with the Found a Bone method, as draw your control hand and if you have the necessary crows your home free and can keep the dog, and if not just slaughter it.
