DeleteAccount Posted August 17, 2014 Report Share Posted August 17, 2014 According to this tweet, it seems a few gremlins made mischief in the final book https://twitter.com/Valhallan42nd/status/501092421506445313 Basically, Tannen as 5 SS is a bit of an eyebrow raiser, Dreamer with Cache 3 is minor, though relevant, but the blessed of December at 6 SS is pure bloody insanity. So basically, just wanted to ask those who have decks already if they have these same costs or not. Since nothing like this was mentioned in the errata/faq document and since I cannot imagine how the blessed could ever be considered sane at 6SS, I'm inclined to believe they are all misprints, but just wanted to make the issue known and clear out if the decks are alright or they may have the same error too or if they are all intended.

hypoking Posted August 18, 2014 Report Share Posted August 18, 2014 To be fair, with the blessed at 9 and Miranda at 8 I can't think of a single reason to ever field a blessed as is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hypoking Posted August 18, 2014 Report Share Posted August 18, 2014 I've played them, and I like to think I've made good use of them, but paying the full nine points is just deliberately handicapping yourself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fetid Strumpet Posted August 18, 2014 Report Share Posted August 18, 2014 That's a possible issue with Myranda, not with the costing of the blessed. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uktena Posted August 18, 2014 Report Share Posted August 18, 2014 He means pay for Myranda and turn her into a Blessed. The reason to take both would be if you wanted a Blessed and wanted to turn Myranda into something else. Also, it's one stone - big deal.

dgraz Posted August 18, 2014 Report Share Posted August 18, 2014 Or if you wanted to put an Upgrade on the Blessed. I've seen the comment before....and sure it's valid......I disagree with it and would never do it myself, but it's valid. I would much rather have a better plan than....ooh, I'm gonna game the system to save one SS. I put Pack Leader on the BoD when I run her with Marcus and it's awesome. Myranda herself is fantastic on the table and I think it's a waste to use her as just a 1ss saving model. Her abilities are great and I like to keep her on the table as long as possible. YMMV. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott Posted August 18, 2014 Report Share Posted August 18, 2014 There's also a big thread on A Wyrd Place about it. General consensus is until an official word majority of the people will be playing with how the book is written. I'm thinking that the discrepencies were from the pdf cards to the book, and there was note that things may change. So I'd personally go with the book and cards until there's an errata.

hypoking Posted August 18, 2014 Report Share Posted August 18, 2014 Discussion of the blessed aside, were there any discrepancies besides the three noted? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thats what I remember, that there'd be another round of internal testing and final tweaking. In light of that and in the absence of a change log I don't think it's at all unreasonable to play with the book numbers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soundwave Posted August 18, 2014 Report Share Posted August 18, 2014 Interested in this outcome as well. Tannen and Dreamer could be some last minute fix, but with the blessed, it feels like they might as well be errors. For now, I'd play with neither of the changes.

I would much rather have a better plan than....ooh, I'm gonna game the system to save one SS. It's actually game the system to get a lot of free movement, an extra activation and draw 4 cards what I've actively seen which I find a lot more annoying. I like Myranda and it pisses me off that she is a glorified delivery service for anybody that wants almost a full hand and a cerberus/blessed in their crew. If it didn't trigger imbued energies (which should have bloody said killed or sacrificed by enemy) it wouldn't be as bad, but at the end of the day if you wanted one of those beasts without an upgrade and you don't need Myranda for whatever reason, you can use them for a 1SS discount with no downside outside of somebody being lucky enough to paste Myranda before you use her 0 which is highly unlikely.

Da Git Posted August 18, 2014 Report Share Posted August 18, 2014 Straight from Justin's mouth on Twitter: Justin Gibbs @JustinLaloGibbs 15 mins .@AidieKirk @Joel__Henry Blessed should be 9, Tannen should be 6, Dreamer is as he should be. #officialresponse Yey!!

Popular Post Justin Posted August 18, 2014 Popular Post Report Share Posted August 18, 2014 Blessed shouls be 9, Tannen should be 6. Dreamer is correct. 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeleteAccount Posted August 18, 2014 Author Report Share Posted August 18, 2014 Thanks for clearing that up. OK, so if I understand correctly, Dreamer's cache was increase by one compared to the pdfs. Any other intentional changes that might have not been noticed and weren't included in the last faq?

wizuriel Posted August 18, 2014 Report Share Posted August 18, 2014 Really? well, Hobbo McFister did seem kind of strange now that you mention it... zombie hooks, a catapult throwing undead pigs stuffed with explosives and men fighting with giant coffins is fine, but Hobbo McFister is who you find strange? also surprised The Dreamer got a buff/change.

hypoking Posted August 18, 2014 Report Share Posted August 18, 2014 Look I think if we all put aside our differences for a few minutes I think we can all agree that Hobo McFister is clearly bad for the game. Trash Fire alone is going to invalidate a number of playstyles with how easily it just takes models out of the game. This says nothing of the other Shantytown crew members, who are, frankly, disgusting in more ways than one. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
r4st4f4n Posted August 18, 2014 Report Share Posted August 18, 2014 Dreamer's got a BUFF? /me checks calendar if it is April 1st already... He ABSOLUTELY needed that SS u.uFortunately, he received it now, so we won't have him Errata-ed later to add it, as an Errata on the main card of a Master would be quite unappealing...

Frankly, I don't see too much of a problem with that, what really scares me is his "proctology exam" that requires you to fish for "nuggets" in your opponent and if you find any you can summon a "chocolate" gamin. Pretty hardcore stuff I'd say. As for the Dreamer, I have not faced his dreaminess, but is it pretty much a consensus that with Cache 2 he was already top tier material? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
