graeme27uk Posted May 15, 2016 Report Share Posted May 15, 2016 Which totem do you use with Nicodem? I can see uses for various ones.... Vulture - is thematic and gives some options for castings and moving models about. Graveyard Spirit - is more defensive so maybe use in Assassinate or Reckoning? Malifaux Child - this one is interesting as you could get more castings from it and a creepy child protege is appealing Which do you use?

Karolicker Posted May 15, 2016 Report Share Posted May 15, 2016 Largely depends on schemes. Gravy spirit is king of the totems in my eyes, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paddywhack Posted May 15, 2016 Report Share Posted May 15, 2016 I love the idea of the Vulture, but it is far too squishy. Can help summon things further up field and still avoid Slow, but sooo easy for your opponent to take down. Graveyard spirit is good, though I don't often keep him near Nicodem himself. He's great with a Rogue Necromancy or Izamu. I love the Malifaux Child to help spread around Fast. He's one of my favorite totems with Nicodem (depending on your play style).

graeme27uk Posted May 15, 2016 Author Report Share Posted May 15, 2016 Armour stacks right? i've used the vulture before and it's ok but if targeted dies easily.... Leaves a corpse marker though. I guess i will have to try them all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gypsey Posted May 15, 2016 Report Share Posted May 15, 2016 I do like the vulture to summon a model way up the board. You can get a scheme marker so far turn 1 if thats what you need. Or summon a model into charge range. Yes, its going to die quickly, but its not a big deal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MEGAHORSE Posted May 16, 2016 Report Share Posted May 16, 2016 They should all be used specific to what you need Vulture has some staying power with its high Def, and is useful for ferrying corpses upfield, allowing Nicodem to cast through him, Walk 10 to enagage models for Interference/hunting scheme runners is incredibly useful as well. Grave Spirit I find best in scenarios where you have a high point model (Emissary/Izamu/Valedictorian) who you want to hold an area and not move far. I used to take him all the time. Now I lean more toward the Vulture. Malifaux Child is best for Poison/Support builds IMO, as being able to hand out fast on 7's is pretty strong.
