ill admit im a noob to the game aswell but you took claim jump but nothing really capable of doing it. ie scheme runners, crooligans are great but cant interact first turn, 2 of can do claim jump each turn and cant start on the claim markers alternatively 1 necropunk can do the same job with scheme-leap-scheme. I use crooligans as my frame target as they can easily be in the opponents face turn 1. Belles are always great for luring enemy models of the markers or just out of position. What was the purpose of Phillip? hes a card draw machine and entourage runner not a killer or a tank.
If youn want a speed bump carrion emmisary with My Little Helper can place 2 walls for a turn meaning you can make the opponent move where you want or just stop things from charging in general.
Remember this game isnt always about killing, play the schemes not the enemy, i have heard of people winning games not killing a single model.
