The same model can't take the same upgrade with the same name more than once, so no. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keget Posted November 24, 2016 Report Share Posted November 24, 2016 So I hear that corpse markers hurt even more now that Reva is out. While Jack will help with specialist's slow movement, nothing helps his def of 4. He would take the place of Sue in my army. I can't imagine that it would be a good idea, but I am willing to listen.

Thanks, Steven Don't have my cards, but Sue can remove corpse markers with trigger on his 1 AP tactical action I could give wrong suit ......

Freman Posted November 24, 2016 Report Share Posted November 24, 2016 I'm looking forward to running the Dead Outlaws with him. Although one or two might be quite nice with Hamelin two. Their ability to force a scheme marker drop might work well with the Rat King's ability to teleport and eat them. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OMG....I have had great success with Sue in both Parker and JD crews, but never saw this tactical action. While you need the mask to remove corpse counters, it has no resistance, so you can hit anyone with it. WOW, can't wait to try this out.

keget Posted December 14, 2016 Report Share Posted December 14, 2016 OK so Sue bit me hard in the rear last night. My opponent pointed out that Sue's anti cast aura would make my Jack Daw have a to his torment only obey. I think he is right. Have other just missed this or they work around it or what? For reference it says "Until end of the Turn, Ca Attack actions which target friendly models within 3 suffer to the attack flip." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seadhna Posted December 14, 2016 Report Share Posted December 14, 2016 The answer would be to activate Jack before Sue, otherwise seems like a legit case of anti-synergy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes Jack would be at it is why I don't tend to take the Twist and Turn upgrade on Jack when Sue is around. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Virtus Posted December 20, 2016 Report Share Posted December 20, 2016 I'm thinking about picking up Jack and his crew. While researching, it seems to be that Lady Ligia needs some help to be worth her cost. Has anyone tried the Hodgepodge Emissary with her and given her the Companion trinket? If so, how useful has it been? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She can provide good results and an "omggottakillher" reaction from an opponent, but is somewhat expensive for a model that will just fly in, create an inconvenience and die.

Khoregard Posted January 12, 2017 Report Share Posted January 12, 2017 I'd note that if she does fly in and survives, that's a very big suck zone for your opponent Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Virtus Posted January 12, 2017 Report Share Posted January 12, 2017 I want to get Lady Ligeia up there, then companion into Papa Loco, but it seems difficult with positioning and winning initiative before one of them dies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
psychogeek123 Posted February 10, 2017 Report Share Posted February 10, 2017 So I was recently given a this box set as a gift. How are drowned with jack? I do not play rezzers to having someone giving me access to them makes me feel weird as I generally do not like taking merc-type models Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TeddyBear Posted February 10, 2017 Report Share Posted February 10, 2017 Drowned are good for something schemes or stategies with models that creates hazardous aura/terrain like Jakuna Ubume, Ama no Zako or Crooked men; because they increase damage from terrain by 1 (no cheatable damages) much better with creeping terror upgrade on a ht 3 model (that increase range by 1") Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only model I always take is Jaakuna Ubume, but that's just my personal preference. Now that Monty's been buffed, go for Monty instead of any Resser minion Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SlackerLM Posted February 11, 2017 Report Share Posted February 11, 2017 @psychogeek You should proxy one in your next game, that way you get to see of it works for you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
admiralvorkraft Posted February 11, 2017 Report Share Posted February 11, 2017 I've gotten some work out of Drowned, but the board needs to be right. Mostly they are useful as another movement control vector for dragging things towards Jaakuna Ubume (and therefore the rest of the crew). They are definitely worth their weight over a guilty, but I generally get more mileage out of Crooked Men for a stone less. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
psychogeek123 Posted February 16, 2017 Report Share Posted February 16, 2017 So I bought them anyways as I love the models and am a compulsive spender O.o I also picked up a couple others just because I know they are good but will have to play around with jack and his core crew to get the feel for him before I try to complicate my lists by adding other faction models.

Seadhna Posted February 20, 2017 Report Share Posted February 20, 2017 How do you fine folks go about activation control with Jack? So far the only way I see it is "Jack kills a bunch of stuff, then you get activation control" I never leave home without Sue, Effigy or Jaakuna, but lacking strong 5ss minions/scheme runners is what hurts my lists the most. Maybe I could bring myself to use Winged Plague, but I so much hate the model it hurts. Should I venture into Crooked Men or Drowned to get to that 8 model count? The Nurse without Specialist I find too risky to use, and that's 13ss (18 if you count the mandatory Guilty for zee flammenwerfer guy not to lag behind) thoughts, experiences, advice?

OctaBit Posted February 20, 2017 Report Share Posted February 20, 2017 Why not use johan over the specialist? It's the same walk but he's 2 points cheaper with a slightly better def. Also he doesn't blow up when killed and the relic hammer is nice. Also dead outlaws, while a little, more expensive then what your looking for, could work. Especially if you save the points on the specialist. They're not as fast as other options but they're good at fighting heavier things with upgrades and denying scheme markers. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daniello_s Posted February 20, 2017 Report Share Posted February 20, 2017 Specialist with Jack is quite OK. Tormenting and pushing him 3'' helps a lot with his slow movement. Also Jack can Obey him to take an extra walk if needed. If you need interesting fire platform who doesn't care about cover then he is not a bad choice. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I'm dreaming of the time I can get them Outlaws at a store, but there isn't even a release schedule yet. As for Johan, he's a cool guy, but his condition removal is too conditional for my tastes, needing a specific suit to go off. Whereas Specialist's gun is nothing to sneeze at, ignoring cover, setting things on fire (because FfM is a thing) and a bunch of other useful triggers.

Well here's hoping they'll be in the Easter sale! I can understand that. It only needs a low ram though and it can hit more than just slow and paralyze. The gun is nice. Personally I think it's more an question of preferences. I prefer the melee, but I can respect the flamethrower. As for FfM I don't have much of a problem with Daw since the curses can kill people pretty easily. Just throw something on someone after beating them up, then obey them to shoot someone.

PositronMike Posted February 21, 2017 Report Share Posted February 21, 2017 I am usually at 7 or 8 activations in my Jack crews. To get this I take the malifaux child and 2 guilty and then add other models to taste. I like the guilty as they can be quite durable for their cost. I will pair them with a another tormented model to get around their slow movement and Jack obviously helps speed them up as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
