So, I finally got my Shadows of Redchapel box yesterday and after furiously gluing and assembling them I got them out for a game last night.
My list was:
Seamus, Bag o' tools, Sinister Reputation
Madame Sybelle, Bleeding Tongue
Copycat Killer
Canine Remains
Nurse
Rotten Belle
Rotten Belle
My plan was to use CR first activation to find a bone, then Seamus to res in another Belle, however after 3 turns of failing to even get the scent of a bone from the CR I had to abandon that plan, and the one time I did draw high enough crows to cheat in to do what I needed there was already a corpse marker for Seamus to use and I flipped 13 Crows on his ability...
The nurses are amazingly annoying, especially if you use illegible prescription to cheat in for masks, then chain activate a belle and lure the victim in for a pounce and a teeth and nails.
Due to me being an idiot and forgetting stuff, I didn't use Seamus to the best of his abilities and he ended up being killed and giving away 3vp to my opponent due to assassinate and the final result was a loss to me with 6 vp to 7.
The second game saw things go a bit better in my favour, and by using Seamus better with the sinister reputation I managed to bring him back from the brink of death a number of times, and then in the last turn after he had activated to do other stuff I cheated in a crows on the nurse to heal him back up to full with paralysed (He'd already activated, so it was more about denying the assassinate VPs).
Once again, the CR failed to dig anything up, but Seamus did bring a few girls in throughout the game, much to the annoyance of my opponent, and Sybelle wiped out the little witchling stalker she'd earmarked for vendetta with a resounding attack flip and then severe damage wiping out its 1 remaining wound...
All in all, I think I'm going to enjoy using Seamus and his girls, but I need more practice with them and to get to know all of their subtle ways.
