I just had Candy stun Pandora today for her On Your Heels trigger and get her into a good position.

Stun is of course never a positive, but to some models it is less of a detriment, than others. And Candy is such a central model to the Woe crew that it is a worth considering. 

On Your Heels is enemy only, I believe.

Sorry for all the rules comments xD

For Dreamer, a model gains stunned when summoned.  This means if for some reason you didn't place it on the board in the turn it was summoned, or summoned it at the end of the turn, they would activate while buried and lose stunned for the next turn.

This is the Malifaux version of sleeping off the hangover :D

With Candy a good trick with this idea is using the Burnt Out trigger in Glimpse; the range is much better han Goody Basket, it doesn't have a TN, it's an attack (so Incorporeal may reduce the damage) and it uses the bonus action instead of a normal action.

Something like Teddy will benefice more from a third AP than from his triggers (and Teddy is great because with Armor and Regen he can shrug the damage off). In things like Carver is also useful, but it's riskier or require more set up (self-loathing a model engaged with him to heal him and use a sorrow or something cheap to remove stunned from him before his activation). Models with built-in condition removal like Serena (or a Rougarou in a Marcus crew) can be also good targets.

But not only in the big boys, any of the woe minions may put that third action in good use: Lyssa will become a Lure machine and suffer no damage near of a pilar, Sorrow may heal the point of damage with Life leech and may use that extra AP to spinball out of the bubble to score something and Aversion may perform a charge + Scatter (will trigger Antipathy) + Terrorize to displace an enemy model (but this one has no way to prevent that point of damage tho).

I learned this in a game, where the opponent simply refused to fail a WP duel until late turn 3. Then suddenly things escalated.
