The standard shen core is basically shadow emissary and one low river monk, to make use of his conflux to draw 3 cards. 

Aside from that, he plays well with a lot of models. So as Da Git said, I would look first for just having fun with what interests you. 

If you have a more competitive meta that is playing what wins, let us know and we can all chime in on how to take him to the next level. 

Shen is one of the, if not the, most complex master out there, so don't hesitate to ask questions on piloting or how to tackle certain problems.  

Right now i'm only playing my buddy. All the shops 'round me got burned on 1st edition and 1.5 so they stopped carrying the models, and to boot there is little to no interest. Everyone here is only hyped for 40K or Star Wars Legion. But, i'm hopefully gonna fix that. But I've definitely been eyeing the Monks of Low River, and the snipers. Mainly 'cause of the models. Which is why i pretty much picked up the shenlong crew. I have The Thunder coming in, plus some Guild Miniatures because I get bored playing one faction all the time (hense why i'm 5 armies in 40K lol). But.....i'll definitely keep asking for tips because after playing the starter box, and about 3 or 4 full games with my buddy. I'm loving this so much more then any table top i've played. We're even exploring getting a grop together for INto the Breach

So I'm completely new to Malifaux. I'm curious though......I picked up Shenlong's crew, along with a Shadow Emmisary and Dawn Serpent. What else should I consider as I'm just getting into the game and wanting to build some decent lists to learn on. I know a friend is hooking me up with Mizaki, and I plan on picking up The Living Armor there Izamu (I think is the name) and the Terracotta Warriors

So I'm completely new to Malifaux, I figure I'd ask the question. I'm starting off with The Guild and Ten Thunders but I'm curious about The Guild right now. I'm wanting to run Death Marshals, and I think Death marshal recruiter would be good. Maybe one of the good doctors to patch them up? I don't know.....any pointers?
