Thanks asrian... I thought it is just me who sucks against her... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rogue1 Posted October 16, 2015 Report Share Posted October 16, 2015 I too find Kirai to be a bit on the upper side of the power curve. I usually only have real success against her when playing something that can cut line of sight against her (think Rasputina, kaeris, Lilith, and Sonnia). Even then it can be an incredibly hard fight. Unfortunately the only access we have to something like that in Outcasts that I can think of is Torkage with the Smoke and Shadows upgrade and the Torkage would have to be in the middle of her crew.

daniello_s Posted October 16, 2015 Author Report Share Posted October 16, 2015 As I spoke with Mike (my opponent) we agreed that the only good solution when playing against Kirai is to put enormous pressure on her as soon as possible. Of course it is easier to say than to do as she can easily be surrounded by her Sheishins and other models. Also sniping her from the distance is a problem (Ikiryo).Next time I'll try Viks against her - maybe correctly performed slingshot would help Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rogue1 Posted October 16, 2015 Report Share Posted October 16, 2015 What about running a duel sniper list with 2 trappers a bit removed from the crew. That way your opponent has to decide between deploying Ikiryo to a wing where she is out of position or take the hits. With trappers you can even do a focused shot then 0 action push away from Ikiryo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daniello_s Posted October 16, 2015 Author Report Share Posted October 16, 2015 It is still trading a 6SS model (Ikiryo ignores Armor!!!) for a potential 2, maybe 3 damage (before the prevention flips). Not very good deal, especially when playing against summoning master.Plus pushing out of engagement won't help as Ikiryo has 9'' charge.Maybe sniping her from both Trappers and then sling-shot Pokey might work (possible it would) but your opponent had to be blind not seeing this coming and do nothing to prevent this happening Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

daniello_s Posted October 20, 2015 Author Report Share Posted October 20, 2015 To be a bad boy on Friday, or not to be? I'm playing against Colette - Turf War and lots of marker related schemes in the pool (like Plant Explosives and Spring the Trap). My initial plan was to play Hamelin as I have him ready to play, but on the other hand I'm eager to field Viks with Hodgepodge Emissary and hack'n'slash opponent with Pokey. Choices, choices, choices... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silencer Posted October 21, 2015 Report Share Posted October 21, 2015 (edited) Just slowly painting my rat master so I say team Hamelin and become Friday Night Nihilist who doesn't give a single f*** about any kind of conditions Edited October 21, 2015 by Silencer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daniello_s Posted October 23, 2015 Author Report Share Posted October 23, 2015 First game with Hamelin as an obey-master finished. It was very difficult one with lots of schemes which really suit my opponent running Colette but I'm very happy with the final score. Detailed report will follow tomorrow Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dalleron Posted October 25, 2015 Report Share Posted October 25, 2015 interesting crew selection in that there was no rats of any sort. My first experience against him was terrible and boring as all heck. May require a second look at him after reading this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EnternalVoid Posted November 15, 2015 Report Share Posted November 15, 2015 Question, reading the Colette vs Tara game, I noticed some of your terrain. What do you use for your fields? They look fairly flat so models are not likely to fall over if they are oddly balanced and look pretty nice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
