Hi, thinking of starting playing Malifaux with Tara, I would like some help with this strategy. More specific what models to buy (50 point list)?
Beastie Bomb Upgrades: Obliteration Symbiote, Dead of Winter/Scramble, Knowledge of Eternity Description: Take Tara, one Death Marshal, and a big, angry monster of your choice. Many models will work, but some commons ones are Killjoy, Taelor, Nothing Beast, and the Desolation Engine. Use the Death Marshal or Pull the Void to Bury your monster, run across the board, and use Faces in the Void to unleash said monster into the middle of the enemy crew! This tactic is somewhat of an all or nothing type of strategy, but can be particularly effective to remove certain key enemy models. When using this strategy, Tara MUST activate first and use Eternal Moment. This allows her to move up to 20” (25” if you replace one of the upgrades with Scramble) and unbury a monster, which can then chain activate. For a more “all-in” list, take two high cost monsters. Tara uses Pull the Void to give Monster 1 Fast and Bury it. Walk twice towards the enemy crew. Use a Death Marshal to Bury Monster 2. Tara reactivates, walks towards the enemy crew and unleashes both monsters. With this setup, you’ll win or lose based on the strength of your initial alpha strike, as it will be very difficult (if not impossible) to recover if your opponent manages to fight off the initial attack. However, this approach can potentially table a surprised opponent.

I’m thinking that Tara use Pull the Void and give Killjoy fast and bury it, but instead of using Death Marshal why not use Bete Noire that can start buried? But to be able to use Taras bury when one model already are buried you need Nothing Beast? Don’t have the rulebook so don’t really know how this work.
Tara + her sidekick
and Killjoy, Nothing Beast and Bete Noire or similar setup with 2 (3?) high cost monsters.
But then…what other models?
The basic idea is to use Tara to beastie bomb so many models as possible (not only the big angry monsters) move around quick and do the same next turn and so on…can it be done or should I just fill up with Void Wretches to have many models?
Thanks!
