4thstringer Posted April 7, 2014 Report Share Posted April 7, 2014 Wanted to know what the more experienced players here would think of this. I was thinking that I would like to use Lucius's ability to bring the Doppelganger to effectively have a 3rd austringer for the first two turns. I figure that should someone try to get into my backfield with a nice hand to hand ability, she can copy that instead and become the prime defender for my Austringers as well. Any thoughts?

Joel Posted April 8, 2014 Report Share Posted April 8, 2014 I think she has more uses than that - but for a turn its perfectly viable to have her throw 3 birds at something. No triggers for her though, so its only low damage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EntrepeNinja Posted April 8, 2014 Report Share Posted April 8, 2014 I think it be a cruel man for whom two austringers is not enough.... All joking aside- the main thing I love about austringers is deliver orders which she can't do. And like Joel said, there are probably lots of reasons to bring a 'Ganger, the least of which is making her into a gun. ENinja Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gipsy_Danger Posted April 22, 2014 Report Share Posted April 22, 2014 It doesn't seem like a bad idea, but like others have said you can use her for more than just that. I like the idea of her using the Lawyer's Special Damages attack as well, really bumping up the Fees counter on an enemy beatstick to put them in the poor house just seems like fun to me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malicte Posted April 22, 2014 Report Share Posted April 22, 2014 Bring the Doppelganger for Initiative Flips and Scheme shenanigans. Keep her for copying actions at opportune times. Being able to interact while engaged even without Lucius' help is crazy good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zFiend Posted April 22, 2014 Report Share Posted April 22, 2014 I like the Doppelganger as you can just copy what you need, if you fail at shooting something crucial with an Austringer you get another chance for it with Doppelganger, if you do manage to do it you can have the Doppelganger do something else.

4thstringer Posted April 22, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 22, 2014 You guys are getting me excited about trying this out. I will try it against NB this week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
akaean Posted April 25, 2014 Report Share Posted April 25, 2014 I remember reading about somebody pointing out how awesome Useless Duplications is on the Doppelganger. I also just realized that you can take it in non Lucius Neverborn crews too, since its a duel faction upgrade restriction mimic. Anyway near immunity from when near a friendly (Duplications causes randomization as if shooting into an engagement, Dopple doesn't randomize) and an ability similar to Lucius and the Lawyers' highest authority vs . Lets the Dopple mimic and still give out a flip, or go full defensive and give out :-fate to hit for one discard, and STILL take interact actions while engaged. The fact that I've had several games boil down to a single initiative flip to win the game, being able to cheat that is insanely powerful. Really makes me want to run the Dopple in my Lucius crews, even if he can't order her about. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
