HUm, not many answers. I thought she was more used, specially because of the Drowned, but maybe the effort on Ap just for Hazardous is not justifiable?

I'm asking more inline of using her with Kirai. Any experience with her? Cheers

Have you ever faced crews like WOng with Mancha Roja etc? Lots of Ca and blasts?

I get your point, and your right. Not everyone will enjoy the challenge, it is possible but I agree it's not easy. But maybe it's just an early render and they'll introduce more detail?

Precisely. I was talking about this. If you just relate to the bird head and wings...well...of course. But it's quite different in concept for several reasons. But I get that you don't feel it's wow. I have the opposite opinion. I believe the concept is simple and effective, maybe not new, because... egyptian themes with animal heads exist everywhere, but a clean, not over the top, effective concept. I personally love it. I think it's one of the best. Maybe the final model has more detail in the clothes, but still I think it's a great canvas to try out painting techniques. Hard to paint well but awesome to try and give it texture.

Well ok. Different perspectives then. I find the quality and concept of the new miniatures much much better. Nothing similiar with a Lord of change apart from being a bird head. I guess it's just a matter of tastes in concept. Shall I throw you picture of models in thrones way better then the nicodem one?

Damn, you really are being picky... what an awesome model and concept. Are you really comparing this model to Nicodem Avatar? By that logic it's just a skeleton in a chair carried by horribly made zombies... I think it really captures the flavor of the faction as I do think of any other emissary, they are really well done, as a concept and as a model. The pose, the sense of threat. It will really come alive when well painted. The robes have space to use different painting technics. I can picture already what i'm going to do with them. This one and the Brutal are really my favorites. A great centerpiece. I find the nitpicking strange when you compare the new models to the old ones.

I really don't have much experience and i'm quite the noob. Never tried Rogue or, Rider, or carrion. but regarding Izamu... I also don't feel that he really is that big of a monster. If the opponent gives him enough attention he is quite brittle. My opponents do fear him so the psych factor helps, at least while the meta and community is very small, but I don't feel him to be THAT kind of a beast. BUT I do love the synergy he has with Kirai and I would even use him as a bomb with Tara. With those masters MOV 4 is not really a problem and the 3 reach is awesome, so he does beat hard, at least by Resser standards (with a min 3), and he holds schemes and enemy models just fine. He serves more than 1 purpose and being spirit and undead makes it useful for Kirai or Molly shenanigans. But you have to admit that the cool factor is much taken in account

Last time I tried to go heavy on summoning as much as was possible every turn. And tried it without the FC It would consume a lot of seshin, and would deplete my hand because I would have to summon Seishin every turn and then regular summons. then I would have no seishin to heal or protect. So, The summoning needs to be toned down or have a FC not to sacrifice so many seishin. And I was summoning Hanged and/or Shikome every turn!

Really cool! Chutlhu fan myself

You can also use Belles which are always handy, they are sturdy and a good target to soak damage to throw iKyrio. Since they have a long range with Lure they can stick close to kirai and you can trick the opponent by exposing them a bit so they are tempted to shot them. And since they are note spirits they can take a bit of damage from Ca actions also. Nurses can also do it but are more frail. But they are good to heal/paralise the flesh construct, since he is mainly there to be a summon spot. Like the guys said, Hanged, Shikome, Datsue-ba, are also good to unleash iKyrio and you can take advantage of adversary. The same with Izamu.

A really spectacular figure. Really beautiful. Can hardly wait for the Ressers one.

So what do you use as minions with Kirai, apart from a Belle and maybe Flesh Construct? Because I believe only they as minions can give adversary? Or the Shikome but those I always summon. When I take stuff like Belles, Nurse, Flesh construct, Izamu, Datsue Ba or Sybelle, I found that I lack a bit of the great buff that is Adversary

Hey there. I finished the Belles but I'll make a photo as soon as as I have the bases done. Right now I felt like painting something else and started on The Hanged. Her is how they are looking: What do you think? Feedback appreciated.

Your opponents pitch cards for the TN15 Def duel? Lucky duck! Usually they fall for that once, then I do it 10 more times over the game and they learn their lesson He had Goblins so he started cheating from the deck. Still drains it there was a turn where he went through his whole deck (during the course of the turn), between summons and Def15 test and other Wp tests (Sybelle, Yin, etc) and his own cheats.

Another thing... Molly summons also come with slow right?

I am enjoying the podcast also. The different prespectives are really nice and i love the fact that it includes guests "out of faction" to take a look at their perspective. That's really great.

I tried her for the first time a few days ago. And while I missed a lot of her tricks and underused her abilities (using the big cards for summoning) her summoning in turf war was just awesome. Doing Tests on 15Wp to drain hands and then some black blood it does take a toll. I was summoning 1 to 2 shikome a turn and they are nasty! The summons are more for hindrance and take AP from the enemies while bombing them with some damage then to make "solid" summons.

Been a while since I posted. The Belles have been a really slow progress. Finished Izamu and it's just waiting weathering and basing. Finally finished the Belles. Still have to apply Matte Varnish, some details here and there and am thinking if I should make some dirt/blood splatter. I started the on the bases. Sorry for the bad photos. Critiques!

Sorry for reviving an old post. So... according to that logic in a Close Deployment you can accomplish breakthrough almost at the middle of the table? I find it really strange... A picture and a official clarification would be great

I found it strange that it is a skill but costs 1 SS... is it a mistake or is it the sole skill that has to be paid?

Nice

Doesn't Bishop's extra AP only usable to move actions? Another suggestion regarding rules and the mistakes that are bound to happen (which is pretty normal), why don't you invite a third person that knows the rules well to just correct some mistakes in game? I have seen it done before, like in Will Wheaton tabletop series. Can't wait for the next one!

What is Rising power??? Where are there more Kirai Stories? Sorry for the hijack

Yep, the Belles are just great addition. Won't regret. As for punk zombies you could change the hair for something more oriental like bald with pony tail or the likes of it. I never thought really about buying punk zombies... but the theme aspect could make them ok...
