If I do this however my true loyalty that lies with the treacherously disloyal Ten Thunders will be sullied... Actually, whatever. I'll decide on the spot and play what I want 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But an undead Rooster? I say stuff it with explosives and let it rampage around, too. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't wait for section two, now actually more interesting than this one, because I want to know how they handle the self-evolving story^^ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is technically possible to have prepared seven outcomes for each of the seven outcomes of the previous week, but that would be mind-boggling. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Izzinatah Posted September 20, 2016 Report Share Posted September 20, 2016 Played Panicked Flight yesterday. A victory to the Gremlins this time! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoyled Posted September 22, 2016 Report Share Posted September 22, 2016 Another great game won for the Gremlins tonight. Panicked Flight won for the green team. Also my first game verses Collodi. Felt like stepping off the Zipp wagon for a day, but I brought the First Mate along on the trip. Along with an airship loaded with glowy magic pianos to drop on unsuspecting puppets courtesy of Wong. Quick murdered Lazarus fairly early with a red jokered piano into some Wong blast damage, then crushed Widowweaver next turn. For those who miss oh glowy pigapults, try oh glowy First Mate pianos. Alas the child was snatched from the hands of the Neverborn by the last witchling stalker that "slipped" past Wong (and then promptly rescued off camera by a rooster rider to keep things on track for the Gremlin path story). Also Sammy was struck by a freak lightning bolt which was totally not Wong preventing Take Prisoner. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryin Posted September 22, 2016 Report Share Posted September 22, 2016 The panicked flight battles are exactly the ones I want the gremlins to win. I would aid the cause but I play guild in our league that's congruent. So, instead I offer my moral support! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Izzinatah Posted September 22, 2016 Report Share Posted September 22, 2016 Played Chaos Unleashed yesterday as part of our Shifting Loyalties Campaign and brought home another victory for the Gremlins! Blind Deployment wasn't as hectic as the last time I played it, maybe I'll actually use The Trickster's Favour that I got for winning Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bazlord_Prime Posted September 22, 2016 Report Share Posted September 22, 2016 Unleashed Chaos last night against Perdita and her Family, walking away with a win for the greenskins! Som'er hid Gremlinfully in the backfield, summoning Bayous and watching them die for cards, while Mancha Roja, Lenny and The Sow kinda made good use of the Blind Deployment to start doing damage straight away. MVP = The Sow, killing Perdita, a Death Marshal and the Enslaved Nephilim. Good girl. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wyrmfist Posted September 24, 2016 Report Share Posted September 24, 2016 Zipp took Karai in Panicked Flight. Blocked off the center of the board with markers then daisy chained the child to the corner. Burt and an Iron Skeeter on one flank and Raphael and an Iron Skeeter on the other to kill Witchlings. Zipp is impossible to pin down and always where he needs to be. The First Mate pushing models around while eating scheme markers AND cycling through cards like there is no tomorrow, all the while adding stones to the pool, makes him a new standard for me. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gnomezilla Posted September 24, 2016 Report Share Posted September 24, 2016 Thanks to model shortages, the witchling stalkers in my child's game were played by bayou gremlins and moon shinobi, and in a different player's man's game Francois was played by...a witchling stalker. Clearly some LaCroix have gotten hold of witchling stalker rags and are infiltrating us all. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zipp being everywhere is what I love about him. I've had great success with Zipp and Earl never leaving each other's side, and if Frame for Murder is in the pool, Earl is my target. It's a guaranteed 3 points because nobody wants to leave Earl alive when Zipp is getting his defensive trigger and Ml trigger built in. I've gotten good use out of Ml to drop the enemy 5" away, and then shooting them to lower their walk, essentially making them take 2 walk actions to get back where they want to be.

Hoyled Posted September 25, 2016 Report Share Posted September 25, 2016 Lost by one point in Breakout. First time against Kiria this edition and didn't know that the lost love had the same ghost summoning aura as Kiria. Oh well, the kid and the lady are my priority targets. Was a really fun first session. Liked all the scenarios. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dogmantra Posted September 26, 2016 Report Share Posted September 26, 2016 :(((((((( :((((((((((((((((((( no rooster friend for the kid, but at least she got a teddy which was the next best... we just gotta redouble our efforts and win her over this week! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Izzinatah Posted September 26, 2016 Report Share Posted September 26, 2016 And, failing that, a new 'swine'-cursed for Wong? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoyled Posted September 26, 2016 Report Share Posted September 26, 2016 Mildly disappointing that the kid ended up with the inferior option. Not surprised that three of the original factions took the wins. Ill be pleasantly surprised if Ten Thunders or Gremlins score a win, let alone earn a model. The trickster stands out for me this session. A better taxidermist is really appealing. The man is second because Wong is in the fluff. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is no WAY you can make a pun out of that which is worse than legal (were-)beagle. And I know what I want! A little mechromancer, and if she can attach herself to the Guild's construct workshop so much the better for her (and so much worse for Hoffman who would prefer peace and quiet and all the scrap metal not scattered all over the shop while being made into tiny Teddy type constructs). It doesn't mean I won't help with the self-righteous man. I just won't really want him around. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoyled Posted September 27, 2016 Report Share Posted September 27, 2016 I'm kinda hoping at least one character makes the full five faction swap around. Just to see how Wyrd makes a cohesive character out of something that confused. Preferably the more pronounced paths, not the found x iconic faction weapon off a corpse paths. Bonus points if the model winner is a faction that always came in second but never won a path. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
