Great write-up. It was a pleasure playing against you and I look forward to our next meeting.

Also on this, If you did Alpha Levi and say melee'd Alyce killing her and getting the trigger for an abomination. Would that abomination belong to the Levi crew or the Marcus crew?

I quite like the look of a Marcus, Rogue necromancy, 3x canine remains, 4x guild hounds and 4x corrupted hounds list. Not sure what it could do other than lots and lots of scheme markers.

Don't know if the question has been asked already but, does anybody know when this model will be coming out? I neeeeeeed it now!

Thought so, just thought I'd check though.

Quick question folks, Can Seamus use 'Back Alley' if he's up against Lilith as her 'Master of Malifaux' means she doesn't require line of site?

Almost forgot about the Obey list! Zoraida with Crystal Ball (2ss) Mysterious Emissary (10ss) with Conflux of Fate (0ss) Doppleganger (7ss) Hannah (11ss) Vasilisa (9ss) Widow Weaver (8ss) Put the weaver in just to make sure theres a bit less willpower to resist the obeys! And who needs scheme runners when you can just get you're opponents crew to do it for you?

After hearing something similar on a podcast the other day I was thinking of doing a 'We're going all inclusive' list (ie cant be charged). So Misaki with Disguise upgrade (2ss) Malifaux Child (2 ss) Rusty Alyce (10ss) 3 x Ronin (18 ss) 3 x Desperate Mercanary (12 ss) Add a couple of upgrades and you've got yourself a holiday!

HI folks, thinking of running a 'fun' list to get the best out of Obey. Zoraida with Crystal Ball (2ss) and Tarot Reading (2ss) Mysterious Emissary (10ss) with Conflux of Fate (0ss) Doppleganger (7ss) Hannah (11ss) Vasilisa (9ss) Nurse (6ss) Planning on bringing the voodoo doll out using Z's action and hopefully getting a few Changelings off the Emissary. Has anybody tried this before and if so how did it go? it looks like it could really mess with an opponents head!

Nice one, just sent payment over for Strangely Brown and Me. See you there!

I meant with the trigger off Mimic giving her a free shot rather than the trigger from the shooting.

I played with a Zoraida crew last night against Levi, I managed to paralyze Rusty Alyce using a nurse and voodoo doll (whilst giving both the doll and allyce burning 2 and poison 3!), then used the Doppleganger to mimic rusty's clockwork pistol. Shot the waif next to Rusty killing it with the trigger, shot an abomination, getting a bit too close, killing it then put enough damage on Rusty that the 6 damage she got at the end of the turn killed her! Gotta Love them Neverborn Shenanigans!

Morning, How many places are there left for the tournament? Do you have enough for a few more people? Ta

That's awesome. Almost makes me want to get married again. Almost!

50 point Vassal game anybody? on there at the moment if you're interested.

Definitely interested. Will drum up some more locals from Wycombe and Hemel Hemostead too!

But as the burning condition states that 'During the upkeep any model that has the burning condition takes damage', does that not mean that burning affects all models simultaneously? I could understand if it were burning and poison happening on Johan, then it would be up to the player as both happen at the same time, but Hem can only occur after Burning has happened, so Burning affects both models, then hem affects Johan, almost like a second step in the upkeep.

Ive tried both ways and can say that in my experience its better to have the engine on the table to begin with. If you've got a few abominations hanging round waiting for another to turn up its far too easy for some masters to put a spanner in your works. Plus it means all that AP is lost on turn 1 when you could just move everything forward and kill things to make some more abominations. Having Levi, Rusty, DE and Ashes and Dust on the table basically means that anything that is killed creates an abomination. Your really don't need to start with many. It also means you can put upgrades on your DE at the start. Giving it Oath keeper and watching your opponents face as you give it fast and chomp its way through their models is always fun!

A question was raised on facebook yesterday that seemed quite open to interpretation. Basically a situation had arisen where Johan had been Hemmed by the Voodoo doll and the doll (and hence Johan) given Burning 5. Now the Doll had 2 wounds left and Johan had 6 wounds left. The argument was, does the burning happen to Johan first, taking him down to 1 wound and hence negating hard to kill, and then the Hem kills him. Or does the Hem hit first and then the burning meaning that Johan survives due to hard to kill? The main point raised was that in the rule book it states that the sequence in which conditions are applied are down to the owner of the model. My point was that Hem is a reactive condition and requires the Burning to happen first meaning that it can't be applied before the burning. What are peoples thoughts?

Does Mr Graves 'Ruthless' ability mean he doesn't need to take a terror test against the hanged. Or does The Hanged's 'unrelenting terror' mean that he does need to take a terror test?

Thanks folks. not quite the answer I wanted but clears it up ready.

Reading doppelgänger' a mimic action it says it can't be used on actions that list a specific model. But as the Voodoo Doll is only mentioned in the condition the action gives can the doppelgänger use it to Hem a second model to the doppelgänger? Or if it is able to use it can it double up the hemmed condition on one model?

I'm fairly new myself but have been running the following grow list for a couple of months now and have had some success. I've tended not to play it as a 'must get mature nephs out at all cost' and have still managed to get at least one every game. I even managed two in one game. My list is Lilith with Beckon Malifuax, Bring the blood and Wicked mistress - 3SS Primordial Magic - 2SS Nekima with True Mother - 15SS Mr Graves with Rapid Growth - 9SS 2 Terror Tots - 8SS 2 Young Nephilim - 12SS Which leaves a SS for the pool giving her a cache of 5. The Tots tend to zoom up the board and drop scheme markers whilst the others mop up models one at a time. Or if possible get a few at time with black blood getting a few tots out of it.

Have you thought of running some Waldergiest. They may not add much to the synergy of the dreamer but they will slow your opponent down, hopefully giving you time to get your summons in. It might even be worth replacing the silurids with gupps or terror totts to add more Waldergiest. Silurids are good, but they're expensive when it comes to your average scheme runner.

I was playing a game last night on vassal with a friend and I had placed Liliths illusionary forest markers in front of his Nikodem crew. A question came up with line of site when he moved Nik into the right of the "two" forest markers and did his Mwahaha which affected markers that were adjacent to the other forest marker. The question was, if you're stood in one of the forest markers do you get line of site through the other as they're placed as one casting action, or does the other one block line of site as they're two separate counters placed in base contact? In this case I allowed my friend to reposition his Nik so that he was based in both which cancelled the argument. But for future reference it would be good to know. Thanks
