KingCrow Posted September 26, 2017 Report Share Posted September 26, 2017 I posted on AWP the other night about how I had recently acquired a Sparks and, having never played him before, asked about how to use him with Mei Feng. Now I'm not sure if this has ever been brought up anywhere but I think Sparks is a very-underused asset with Mei Feng due to some of the answers I received. For instance, his (0) action to make target model a construct and give armor +1 can also target enemies, turning them into constructs. This benefits any friendly model within 6" of Kang by giving them positives to both attack and damage vs that model. Metal Gamin can also use their magnetism (a Ca 8 action) vs that model. Lastly, those models that wield Relic Hammers now LOVE to smack the new construct around. Sounds great, right? Another way to use Sparks (0) is to cast it on Mei giving her the construct trait and pushing her up to armor +2! But wait! If you bring Lazarus along, Lazarus can now copy one of Mei Feng's (1) ap actions such as Railwalk or Vent Steam. Since Lazarus is already a construct, Sparks an give the old boy fast too! So if Laz is ever engaged with an enemy, just Railwalk him out and discard a card to take 3 shots at your enemies! Lazarus with Sparks can open up a lot of potentially unexpected actions being taken and I can't wait to try it out. This is usable in both Arcanists and TT, although I'm not sure which is better at the moment. What are other's thoughts on this? Any fun interactions you can think of and want to share? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bindi Posted September 27, 2017 Report Share Posted September 27, 2017 I had him give make Kang a construct and give him fast in a game against Ressers. In one turn he removed Yin, Sybelle and a Belle. Either Yin or the belle [or both] had been packed with explosives as well, which just piled on the damage.

KingCrow Posted September 27, 2017 Author Report Share Posted September 27, 2017 Sparks can also make the Emissary a construct and then Lazarus can use the Emissary's Rite of Strength ability. That makes two models fast and only spending a 1 and 0 AP actions. Kind of expensive tho being 21 soulstones just for those two models.

Nikodemus Posted September 27, 2017 Report Share Posted September 27, 2017 Good thing those two models can do more than just push+fast an upgrade carrying non-leader model. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
