What's your best "griefer" neverborn crew list?


Fortune

Recommended Posts

Neverborn players,

I'm polling to find the most grief inducing Neverborn list possible at 50ss.  The criteria are:

  • This list must cause your opponent significant grief, either by denying then any of the things they'd like to do, or by deploying some other strategy that's head-shakingly distressing
  • This list must be somewhat competitive; you can't be a true villain if you're not putting up a real fight
  • Wave 5 models are legal

Please include some explanation of what makes your list the best griefer list, as well as any notably dastardly combos or strategies possible in the list.

A classic if the table is relatively open.  

50 SS Neverborn Crew
Collodi + 5 Pool
 - Strum the Threads (1)
 - Fated (1)
 - Breathe Life (1)
Envy (9)
 - A Thousand Faces (1)
Doppleganger (7)
 - A Thousand Faces (1)
Freikorps Trapper (7)
Arcane Effigy (4)
Changeling (4)
Changeling (4)
Changeling (4)
Brutal Effigy (4)

If you feel like it you can replace the three changelings with an emissary, you won't be shooting as much on turn one, but you get dangerous terrain, an additional 10 stone model and still 3 changelings.

Pandora with Box Opens, Fugue state and Fears given form. 6 SS pool.

Barbaros with Malifaux Provides and Fears Given Form

5 x Sorrow.

1 x Insidious Madness

Get Pandora in the mix and then just sit there casting Inflict. Possible 7 damage for each failure, not affected by armour and a soulstone will only prevent 1 at a time. If you know your opponents going to spread out, switch the madness or a sorrow out for Lilitu or a Beckoner.

WOW that's some grief!  Trapper + Changelings seems very strong.

I think this was in the collodi thread not long ago:

 

Collodi

Freikorps trapper

Beckoner

1-3x cahngelings

Using collodi you give focus to the whole bunch, and can use my will and her own ap to have the beckoner lure enemy models in. As they get pulled closer they get hit by a pile of free changeling attacks. Each changeling and the trapper have focus to get a boost to range and chances to hit.

Changlings don't get the range boost on their Surprise! attack. They need to check range before declaring the action, and the range of the action doesn't get boosted until declaring it and using focus.

Lilith (Wings + Beckon)
Nekima (A thousand faces) [14ss]
Doppel (Mimic's Blessing) [8ss]
Baby Kade (Depression) [8ss]
The Tooth [7ss]

and 11 ss left for Emissary or scheme runner + PM or whatever you need for scoring.

Lilith swap Nekima with high priority target 1 (or just with anything if Nekima will placed in good position for charge). Swapped enemy placed in a 8" range with Tooth and going to be pushed into trap between Tooth, Kade and Doppel. Tooth attack+push - Kade pounse. Doppel copy Tooth's attack, repeat =) Depression for guarantee kill everything with 5/6/8 dmg trigger.
Nekima charge target 2 or engage weak Df models or try to alive.

Next turn Lilith swap Doppel (manipulative 14 and Blessing) with next priority target 3 and maybe charge target 4.
