First feelings M3E

I would expect the twins to stay nephlim, we used to be able to grow other nephlim into them. but even with out them we have tots,young, mature, tuco, Angel eyes, scion, blood wretches.

They may keep nightmare, but I'd be surprised if they kept woe as well.

Oh, perhaps my biggest hope for Neverborn is that Graves & Tannen keep their Nephilim and Woe keywords respectively.  Their new models fit so well with their Neverborn crews that I really think it would be a shame to not allow it in M3E, especially as they're going to be a general sale and not just a special edition like Niko's alt. 

If Tannen and Graves do go full Thunders keeping their keywords would be pretty interesting. Means you could see Tannen with Pandora and Graves with Nekima but not both together unless they keep Mimic for Lucius.

Definitely they'll stay Nephilim.  I actually think the opposite though. In 1.5 Lelu was a Woe of Self-depreciation and Lilitu a Woe of Forbidden Delight. I've never really understood why they were Nightmares though, I always kind of assumed it was just to pad out the Dreamer's toys when he was released.

I also don't really count the half-caste stuff as Nephilim... not truly.  And I definitely don't want them to be able to grow.

I don't think they should be able to go together in Neverborn though... Nekima probably wouldn't take kindly to Tannen & Pandora wouldn't care for Graves that much.  Especially if they're encouraging keyword crews.  I do hope they're duel faction though as well as Darkened, Nephilim/Woe, Mimic keywords.

I seriously doubt anyone will have more than 2 keywords for front card space reason and probably design space.

Each keyword means a related front card ability if I understood correctly.

My guess is Nephilim / Darkened and Woe / Darkened. 

My intuition may be wrong but I think Mimic will disappear in favour of something related to the Elite Division and Trial / law manipulation.

I agree I thought they were nightmare to back up dreamer when he was first released. I would say nightmare is probably used more on them than woe is, but that's probably true if those key words in general. 

I remember reading something about nekima and the half bloods which is why I expect them to be with her. I'm expecting the growth to be as it was, tot to young to mature.

Even though we are loosing a fair bit of Masters (well, we really aren't since I don't forsee anyone saying no to the dead squard), I must say I am stoked for ME3!!!
I even ended up starting another faction - can't wait!

I am especially looking forward to see how titania takes over some of Liliths abilities, Nekima as a master, and to see what happend to Colldi!

Losing Collodi was a little bad (I'm happy I choose to paint Dreamer before him!) but I really liked Euripedes description. I pick neverborn because of the monsters and it feels like his crew will deliver it!

I expect that Lucius and Marcus doesn't look like a Guild/Arcanist crew (like lucius does at the moment) when I look at them on the table, even if I'm playing Neverborn. I have high hopes that they will get a "Neverborny" vibe when I play them on faction!!

Lucius always feels neverborney to me. I'm far more likely to bring mimics into guild than bring guardsmen into nvb. His model might feel a bit guild centered though, he never drops that disguise. Casino Lucius, Nephilim Lucius, Royal Lucius and Swamp Lucius are all pretty fun themes.

I'm glad to hear that! I play in a very small meta and I only saw him played with the guardsmen. Some things I read also sugests the guardsmen. Nice to know I was wrong, now I'll definitely consider to get his box!!

I always thought that Titania plus Pandora (particularly summoning Pandora) would be a devastating combo.

With all the wp duels titania and her crew can put on an opponent adding misery to the mix as well as the poltergeists debuff would be super powerful. 

Misery isn't going to deal damage for failing a wp duel in 3e

I have been passively playing Neverborn since just after 2e.  I own a game store, so i play everything, but i don't really specialize in any one game.  I pick something i like about a game and just get it all.  I bought every puppet in Malifaux.  I ran nothing but puppets and constructs.  I feel like i have been trolled. . .  Wyrd i hate to break this out, and i do not do so lightly, but how very Games Workshop of you. . .

They have said that they are releasing rules for collodi so there is a good chance you will still be able to use the crew you have. 

Expanding on this a bit, the Dead Man's Hand masters *should* be balanced for tournament play and such, and I haven't actually heard of a TO who's said they wouldn't use them, so I think you're likely fine.   And I say this as someone who's favorite master got murdered in a popularity contest and sent to the Dead Man's Hand (Nicodem).

I played Lynch only since M2. The main reason for this was he was my favourite and I had bought a fair few neverborn models to bolster him and Huggy so I am a little dissapointed.. but only because I can't afford a mass of new minions for him... so, now I'm over that I need a new leader for my minions and now the opportunities seem endless!! As it is Lynch a lot of my crew is mimics and stitched, tots and Graves etc. I just don't know where to go with it now... but I'm excited by that strangely... lots of new cool lore to read and think about... come on m3e. We need you. After all, this is still Ours.... 😉

Graves and Tannen are coming with Lynch to TT so you might end up with a playable crew anyway as long as you have beckoners.

A very sound possibility and, if it happens, then I will play him in TT. I just have a lot of other neverborn models so I will pick up a new master. I'm trying to be positive about the changes but Neverborn are my favourite faction so well it's either an ice giant or Marcus for me.... I think. Guaranteed I will change 12 times before then...

I have loved playing Marcus in m2e so hopefully he stays fun in m3e. I own a lot of swampfiends and resser beasts for him but now he won't be able to use them because of faction swaps and his more restricted hiring pool. My other nvb masters are Lucius, Lynch and Lilith so now my stuff is all over the place. :)
