decker_cky Posted November 25, 2014 Report Share Posted November 25, 2014 Well I think that out of all the Gremlin masters Som'er is the only choice worth playing. Wong might be one too. No, he's definitely the wong choice of master. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loveless Posted November 25, 2014 Report Share Posted November 25, 2014 If two Gremlin players face off and both choose Wong as their master, does the battle end up all right? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D6Damager Posted November 25, 2014 Report Share Posted November 25, 2014 I definitely think once the other master boxes are released there will be a rise in Gremlin players. Not everyone likes to proxy. I just picked up all three box sets and they are my first faction. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

D6Damager Posted November 26, 2014 Report Share Posted November 26, 2014 Zoraida. Yep! I think Zoraida will be the gotcha master that will surprise people at tournaments when you declare faction Gremlins. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
decker_cky Posted November 26, 2014 Report Share Posted November 26, 2014 I wonder if/when they'll rebox Wong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
surly Posted November 26, 2014 Author Report Share Posted November 26, 2014 I wonder if/when they'll rebox Wong. I actually hope they'll give him a new modell when his box will get released (which probably won't happen) ... don't like his sculpt at all. Actually I think he's the only model in the whole gremlin range I don't like However, how cool is Merris? Glad she's released at the Black Friday Sale. A fat gremlin girl with mechanical wings and a rocket attached? I don't care about all those miniatures made of translucent plastic, Merris is made of pure awesomeness, 100% eyecandy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zFiend Posted November 26, 2014 Report Share Posted November 26, 2014 I think they will make a new sculpt with the new box. I just think that it will take a long while for us to get Wong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rgarbonzo Posted November 26, 2014 Report Share Posted November 26, 2014 Nope, it is highly doubtful that Wong will get a new sculpt since he is already a plastic model. No other plastic model has gotten a resculpt, I wouldn't expect to start with Wong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phinn Posted November 26, 2014 Report Share Posted November 26, 2014 I don't think that there is a reason to make a new model for Wong. Even though he and Burt Jebsen are going to be the only Gremlins in 2nd edition that have noses. Actually... his model is identical with his depiction in Crossroads and on the M2E cards, so I am quite sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kofibrake Posted November 26, 2014 Report Share Posted November 26, 2014 How could anyone love a Gremlin?! Death to all the Gremlins! Gladly there are plenty of us to go around. We have that taken care of! Since Gremlins die pretty much like Gremlins, really. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red Moon Head Posted November 26, 2014 Report Share Posted November 26, 2014 As a gremlin player I felt totally within my rights and reasons when in a game at the weekend I had my bayou gremlins kill off som'er themselves with banjos to prevent the opponent scoring a late game assassinate. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It doesn't matter who kills the Leader to score Assassinate, so finishing him of yourself is just handing AP away. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phinn Posted November 26, 2014 Report Share Posted November 26, 2014 Exact wording is: 'If the enemy Leader is killed or sacrificed gain 2 VP.' so Bengt is right. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ah dammit! Well it wasn't gamebreaking (would've made it 10-6 instead of 10-4). Plus I'd rather have the satisfaction of killing him myself.

Malal Posted November 26, 2014 Report Share Posted November 26, 2014 I'm currently getting more into the faction and tried finding some ressources about them on the internet. Compared to the other available factions, Gremlims really seem to be some underdog that not that many players choose. Even in this forum the Gremlin subforum has the fewest topics and especially in tournament reports they seem to be almost non-existant. Why? Sure, they had no faction in M1E, and many plastic kits haven't been released yet. But I guess that can't be the only reason. Therefore I'm also interested how they currently perform in tournament play. Although the game is pretty balanced there's some pretty cheesy stuff around anyway, eg Levi with A&D and Mech Rider, Dreamer summoning or even the Viks standing in your deployment zone on turn two, whirlwinding around. Would be great to hear your thoughts about Gremlins in the current "metagame", especially in tournament play Thanks, cheers I've shared this a couple of times before, it's a breakdown of the UK ranked tournaments from the start of the year up to October (I will get around to putting in the rest sometime) https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1qJSPNcfVVPsz2mAuAX6Hl2wsp9wmXvYaN7wj_vD5O3s/edit?usp=sharing I think it shows Gremlins have performed pretty well throughout the year and there's a few more Gremlin podiums to add since October.

zFiend Posted November 27, 2014 Report Share Posted November 27, 2014 I take a little bit of that statement back, as I am playing my first gremlin game today. Then again I can't really lose, if I win I win, if I lose at least some Gremlins died. I played a tie.. The worst possible outcome.. Not enough gremlins died, nor did I win.. Damn you Math!

Math Mathonwy Posted November 27, 2014 Report Share Posted November 27, 2014 If two Gremlin players face off and both choose Wong as their master, does the battle end up all right?How ever it ends up, it won't be white, I think.I played a tie.. The worst possible outcome.. Not enough gremlins died, nor did I win.. Damn you Math!Blame the Biggest Hat! The whole game devolved into a comedy of errors when you fail terror checks left and right and no one manages to do anything due to having no hand (or due to just being Gremlins).But yeah, the death tally was appalling: the Necrotic Machine died two or three times, a summoned Punk Zombie died, Francois died, two Skeeters died and Gracie died. And that was it! I mean, you didn't kill anything of mine that wasn't summoned. WTH? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
