I'm a Teapot!

I hope so =) but at the moment I'm living 5h away from kassel and I only have a Smart XD Maybe I can come via train sometime next year.

Seems like we're stuck with vogel, centauroi, bonepile and alt huggy for dec -.-

Levi 1SS -Pariah of bone - To the earth return Waif Waif Rougarou Rougarou The Tooth Rotten Belle Rotten Belle Rotten Belle Rotten Belle Rotten Belle What do you think about this crew? Is it to cheesy? Some major drawbacks I missed here?

*Misaki blushing*

Just make sure your not missing the date of the schemes and stones episode when you try to use the information. While those spotlights are really nice, some of them are outdated by 2 years. But the faction discussion forum often has master tactica threads that should be somewhat up to date and those are really helpfull in my opinion.

I love Raphael when I have Rams, I dont really like him without them tho. So if your bringing raphael make sure to bring rambling diatribe and look for those rams and save them for raphael.

Someone migth possibly own 17 Bayou Gremlins cause he played Zipp with dread pirate and 16 gremlins and had 17 unbury targets and 17 incites =D (#Interference)

This means you can obey the wretch once to take the buff and then obey it again with a mask to charge someone. This being said tho, zoraida generates a lot of cards with her ap used on enemy models while dispositioning them. Spending 2 ap and maybe a stone with Zoraida just to charge a bloodwretch seems a bit less worth compared to what you can do to enemy models or a bigger beater of your own.

Francois Lacroix with an iron skeeter with poorly handled explosives is a good alpha strike. Give frank the condition, fly him up the board and give him fast, companion into him and charge the enemy with 4 dumb luck attacks, let francois die and do 4 dmg from the death pulse. This can be really painfull and you will most likely be able to trade francois for a lot more of your opponents models.

This is why Zoraida likes to bring some models with terrifying.

Enemy models cannot remove the condition from asami but her own models can. (Zoraida obeying a low river monk to charge asami and instakill her).

Love the Ml7 Ama no Zako an the Ml5 lucky effigy.

Every game with Lilith is filled with hazardous terrain these days...well after she activated of course XD

Auras generally do stack unless they have that kind of wording that curse of the autumn has. "...one or more models with this ability..."

Three Teddies raid their wagon. =D

Aionus is also fun with or versus pit traps btw.

The bigger they are on aionus and fast from tara if you're thinking the viks are coming =)

I'd bring him vs Outcast most likely. So much Tara and Viks these days. And Scions.

Well first of all aeslin has a claw atk targeting wp, so there is a lot of use for this in a pandora crew. She also has the passive wp duel on activation in her engagment. And I've loved Aeslin vs Tara because her (0) that discards a schememarker to generate an aura that gives enemies around her (-) to casts is brilliant vs the Nothing beast, the scion, void wretches and aionus. Also her Atks are casts and therefore ignore incorporeal. I also like to bring her if I expect lures of any type in the enemy lines. Her other (0) just makes you immune to lures if you position carefully. Its more of a sideeffect but my opponents told me that they felt like spending stones on their belles/Lilithu/Beckoners felt pretty wasted in those games where turn 1 and 2 Aeslin protected my crew and in later turns they were already dead or lures didnt matter as much anymore. Aeslin does relatively weak dmg on her own, but she is phenomenal in a pandora crew in my opinion. I find myself charging a lot more with Aeslin than I use her range atk tho. I've also started to try Vasilisa with Aeslin or Candy in a Pandora list. That trick with obeying people to disengage from pandora/aeslin/candy can wreck people so hard. Usually the enemy doesnt expect Candy or aeslin to charge you early and then I gladly stone for each obey and keep some high cards for vasilisa, because every obey is worth 3 or more wp fails for all misery auras in range. I'll even double walk aeslin into melee for this. Pandora and Aeslin in melee with any model in the game (lets say they didnt charge, just got into melee somehow and didnt do dmg with their activations) Pandora usually summons 1-2 Sorrows early and the emissary tries to get into range and copy misery. So let's say 1 misery from pandora, 1 from a Sorrow, 1 from the emissary as a bad case scenario. Vasilisa Obeys the enemy = 3 dmg, makes the model try to walk out of engagement, you controll all flips and its pretty easy to fail them on purpose. This means 3 misery damage from Pandoras disengaging strike and 3 misery damage from Aeslins disengaging strike. 9 times 1dmg from a single Vasilisa obey and she is free to do it a second time and normally I manage to get more then 1 Sorrow into the heat of the battle. Obviously this ignores armor, incorporeal and hard to kill. If nothing has died to misery before, it now did and the poltergeist gets summoned. And whenever the poltergeist gets summoned in the frontline of the enemies, the pandora player has a good time. Be aware of arcane shield and the new titania upgrade tho. =D

Damn I missed "while buried"... sry I got to try copying copycat from a changeling and using it to copy pandoras actions while being near the poltergeist. Ive also thaught about copying tucos def trigger, but it seems like a worse version of copying vasilisas aura. Wall Climber from a grootslang might also be nice.

Fun thing: I think you could take copy the bonus range ability from the bandersnatch to give the emissary range 4/9 for a turn =D

I tried copying vasilisas aura for -1wp in 4" and it was good. I tried copying the poltergeists aura for negative wp duels and it was super effective! The poltergeist is kind of an epizentrum of dmg for pandora and with the emissary you can apply that to a huge area or double stack it vs henchmen or masters. Most of the time I have to decide between the poltergeist aura and if I need it or another misery aura. Sometimes, if I really need to protect someone, matyr can be the right choice. Copying nimble from barbaros makes a good turn 1. Also I love to play the hooded rider as a side threat for lategame. In that case I like to copy his masks ability, so I can reliably summon 2 changelings in turn 2. For the rare occasion when I play the emissary as a tanky frontliner, copying armor 2 from a waldgeist, or incorporeal from a sorrow, or disguised from tuco/serena if I'm playing against things like the viks. Running an Adze and scoring Claimjump with it and the emissary without spending ap seems fun. Overall I've had the most succes with poltergeist aura vs Henchmen and Masters, and Misery vs little things.

So right now there is previews of minis available in dezember, but the upcoming page isnt updated yet.... Also it shows ferdinant vogel, kentauroi, bonepile and alt huggy.. I hope they update the upcoming page soon and I also hope that there are more releases for other factions aswell.. I still dont know what makes it so hard to keep a single page on the website up to date...

I've also had a lot of positive experience playing Aeslin in the woe is me list and Aeslin is really really good vs the void crew aswell.

This is exactly what I experienced in the woe is me games. The sorrow summoning plays like an avalanche. You wanna kills small things to get the engine going and as soon as the poltergeist is out it just grows and grows and if the opponent doesnt kill all the sorrows, it just eats their crew. Btw the poltergeist can copy pandoras casts at ca4 and that is pretty decent with his (-)aura for wp duels. One game I had a spare red joker and summoned a sorrow with the poltergeist cause he copied the summoning action at -3ca.
