Sirva Posted September 6, 2016 Report Share Posted September 6, 2016 So i made a mistake. I couldn't help but i found myself buing a box of Jorogumo, just for the how good the models looks, without being able to stop myself. I'm usually a NB player, i've a decent number of game with the NB Lynch, but i feel the big spidery tingy a little too pricy for a crew who needs 2+ illuminated and a beckoner (i really don't know if is a good core even fora TT Lynch crew) So i'm really interested if you field usually more than one Jorogumo and with wich masters 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mutter Posted September 6, 2016 Report Share Posted September 6, 2016 So far, it seems it's Asami & McCabe ... Here is some more info: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
InvokeChaos Posted September 6, 2016 Report Share Posted September 6, 2016 I don't think you need a beckoner at all in 10T lynch, and I usually only run one illuminated. I like having another heavy beater besides Huggy, and Joro fits the bill. Plus Lynch's hand manipulation helps out their Ml5. They are minion hunters extraordinaire and they are a lot harder to shift than your opponent wants them to be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kbonn Posted September 6, 2016 Report Share Posted September 6, 2016 Asami, McCabe and Brewmaster help Jurogumo the most. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArcticPangolin Posted September 7, 2016 Report Share Posted September 7, 2016 Asami, McCabe and Brewmaster help Jurogumo the most. Is it Brewmaster's Obeys and Binges that help them out? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eclipse Posted September 7, 2016 Report Share Posted September 7, 2016 Is it Brewmaster's Obeys and Binges that help them out? No, it's the 'Swill+x' condition that he can give out like candy at Ca7 no . It puts a model on until EoT for each -stack- of the condition. Something that is flipping or on the defense should be much easier to take down with the Jorogumo's Ml5, right? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArcticPangolin Posted September 7, 2016 Report Share Posted September 7, 2016 Ah yes, that too. Many thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kbonn Posted September 7, 2016 Report Share Posted September 7, 2016 Exactly Eclipse. But the Obeys don't hurt either, moving them up, or taking an attack with them can be sweet too. Don't forget an obey attack can trigger "Eat your fill" even though it is out of activation. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't forget an obey attack can trigger "Eat your fill" even though it is out of activation. It's just that I prefer Obeying for ranged/Ca actions most of the time and so I usually don't consider this option I'd be more likely to Obey the enemy to get out of position or just tell a Samurai to shoot and not take damage in case of a miss. 'Eat Your Fill' out of activation is a nice catch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would prefer McCabe over the Brewmaster, if you're considering all your options. 1 AP from McCabe would give Jorogumo an extra activation, plus 2 AP to do as he pleases, whereas with Brewmaster, you're essentially swapping each of his AP to give them to Jorogumo. With McCabe, I also like to bring Master Queeg, since Jorogumo has A-MAZING (0) actions. An extra Vicious Bite or 2" push out of activation is pretty nifty. Throw in "Promises" on someone, and "Badge of Speed" on Jorogumo, and you've got an incredibly strong minion with good attack chances and a lot of AP each turn.

Tokapondora Posted September 7, 2016 Report Share Posted September 7, 2016 For Brewmaster, I'd say there's better models of similar cost that the obeys and swills help more. I'd only consider the Jorogumo if I absolutely had to have some sturdy minions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I listed McCabe before Brewmaster in my first reply. The OP had follow up questions RE: brewmaster. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Indeed, the Yokai models are amazing, and from the preview i've seen around fun to play. Since also obsidian oni are some models i really like to have, seems like Asami is a good choice when she 'll be out. I'm also happy to know thant McCabe is a good master for the joro, i took the nightmare box and now i'm more puzzled than before if opening and play it.

Rurouni Benshin Posted September 7, 2016 Report Share Posted September 7, 2016 I use Sensei Yu and Mr. Graves. You could replace Mr. Graves with someone who's equally as efficient at hitting things (Kang is also a good option), but I find he fits the bill well enough.

Well it seems a reasonable crew core Lynch+Sensei Yu+1 Joro with smoke granade Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
InvokeChaos Posted September 7, 2016 Report Share Posted September 7, 2016 Joro are minions so no go on smoke grenades. And yeah, pretty much. Lazarus in 10T can wear Recalled Training, and he has rapid fire. Lynch loves to pitch aces to that. And seeing as Lynch helps you fix your hand, you've got a powerful, beaty model that's hard to shift and doles out some serious damage.
