Zombie Posted November 8, 2015 Report Share Posted November 8, 2015 Hello, just a quick question as I'm pondering what crew to get next and I'm trying to decide between McMourning and Somer. Basically I like the idea of the summoning spam of Somer but I'm bit afraid of how many bayuou gremlins I'll be needing? Would 8 be more than enough or will there be situations where I need even more ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wizuriel Posted November 8, 2015 Report Share Posted November 8, 2015 I run with 8, never needed more (but I don't just spam the summon either) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dumb Luck Posted November 8, 2015 Report Share Posted November 8, 2015 I have sixteen, all of which I have used once. I'd say ten would be fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kofibrake Posted November 18, 2015 Report Share Posted November 18, 2015 (edited) I have 8.I find that it will be rare a case where I need more, because when summoning, i tend to kill one of the summoned Bayous in each turn of summoning to draw extra cards. It goes like: summon a Bayou in base contact to the first Gremlin next to Som'er, then summon another one in base contact with the first, killing him and drawing a card. I get a net gain of one every 2 summons but i get extra cards. These are particulary handy if you also use Bigger Hat than yours and force you and opponent to discard hand, these Kill a gremlin, draw a card make up for it. Of Course, that this all depends on what I am doing with them at the time, as the Kill and draw a card make more sense for the middle of the game phase.The first couple of turns, I may summon 3 to 4 extra Bayous, Heal them up with a Hauler and let them take it up to the opponent Edited November 18, 2015 by Kofibrake Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flat Tooth Posted November 18, 2015 Report Share Posted November 18, 2015 8 has been plenty for me as well! I wouldn't hate having 16 on the table though... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Omenbringer Posted November 18, 2015 Report Share Posted November 18, 2015 I would agree that 8 is probably the sweet spot unless you are really pushing the summon factory and your opponent isn't killing them quickly. I suppose in this circumstance or if you really wanted to spam the Bayou Gremlin's in a skew list 12-16 could be desired. Dont think you would ever need more than 16 though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flat Tooth Posted November 19, 2015 Report Share Posted November 19, 2015 A lot of the time I'll finish off my own gremlin on 1 wound with Somers' melee for that piglet summon and 2 card draw so that also keeps my numbers under the 8 mark. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guildenstern Posted November 19, 2015 Report Share Posted November 19, 2015 8?! ugh, I have 6... still painting lol Good to know though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dogmantra Posted November 19, 2015 Report Share Posted November 19, 2015 It's ok, I only have the four in Som'er's box and rarely feel like I want more, although I don't normally play summoner. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brewmaster Posted December 4, 2015 Report Share Posted December 4, 2015 What I see as a "normal" Summon list is bringing in 1 Bayou a turn, and just having 3-4 already baked in. 8 is a perfectly fine number (mainly cause you can have unique minis using 4 old and 4 new ^_^) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Freman Posted December 5, 2015 Report Share Posted December 5, 2015 Came expecting a "How many bayou gremlins does it take to change a lightbulb" thread. They're Bayou Gremlins. They don't even know what a light bulb is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
