Mateyo Posted July 6, 2017 Report Share Posted July 6, 2017 Hey there! Just looking for a bit of advice. I really love the undead Asian aesthetic of Yan Lo/Ikiryo. I was wondering if it was possible to build competitive crews with them composed of mostly "Asian" models? I don't mind supplementing them with a few characters here or there they may need. Just wondering if this was a possibility. Also it seems like there would be some synergy from mixing the Yan Lo/Kirai crews. Can anyone offer some input on that? Thank you!

Yan Lo can hire Onryo from Kirai's box, and that's all. Kirai don't need Ashigaru and probably don't need Chiaki. The model that is frequently used in both Kirai's and Yan Lo's crew is Izamu the Armor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MeatAndFauxtatoes Posted July 7, 2017 Report Share Posted July 7, 2017 Chiaki is super good value, you can use her to clear slow off Kirai's summoned models. Ashigaru however, aren't really a consideration for Kirai overall, but will work in a pinch if you don't have anything else. Yan Lo has some synergy with spirits, fury of yomi to make nearby spirits take actions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paddywhack Posted July 7, 2017 Report Share Posted July 7, 2017 I'm not sure how much crossover you will see in Kirai and Yan Lo. You could run Yan Lo with a lot of spirits and that would work. Kirai really like spirits. As for 'asian' themed models: Goryo would be good for both. Toshiro can help both, although more so Yan Lo. Can help bolster your forces late if you take the upgrade so he can summon Izamu is good with both. Yin is good, though doesn't necessarily synergize with Kirai. Dastue Ba is very good and works well with both masters. Be sure to have Seishin on hand. She also summons Gaki and Onryo on kills with a trigger Punk Zombies don't really work well with either, but could work with Yan Lo. They are typically seen as too expensive to buy - better for summoning Jakuna Ubume doesn't really have any particular use for either master, but isn't horrible if you want an 'asian' themed Lure model Shikome - good models for both masters (though a bit squishy) Gaki - not considered a great model, but cheap and useful as filler if needed Onryo - not considered great models, but the 0 upgrade helps them a bit Non 'asian' themed models you might want to consider: Drowned - they are slow though, better if you have some way to push them a bit Shield Bearers (they turn into Spirits half way through their life, so can synergize with Kirai a bit - also just a good model) Night Terrors - cheap spirits with flight Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
