drakeman Posted April 29, 2021 Report Share Posted April 29, 2021 Hi all! I am coming back to Malifaux after a fairly long absence (Have yet to play in the current edition) and Neverborn are what I want to go with. I picked up the Euripides box because giants. I am looking into a second master that will run well in concert with him. Would love your thoughts on this and why you think your choice is best. Thanks in advance!

Cats Laughing Posted April 29, 2021 Report Share Posted April 29, 2021 Just purely from a 'shares keyword' point of view, Euripides/Savage has a few models that share keywords with other Neverborn keywords: Lyssa are Savage and Woe (Pandora) Bultungin are Savage and Fae (Titania) If you've bought all of the savage models, those are two keywords you could consider branching out to as you'll already have some models. FWIW, Titania is a "brings markers" master, much like the ice pillars from Euripides, so that might be easy for you to gronk, but also might be something your opponents are already beginning to prepare for.

Both Lyssa's and Bultungin are weaker models imho, they don't make great bridges into other keyword. I didn't pick up Bults alone, as they came with Rougarous and I only purchased the Lyssas to be faction complete. I would recommend Pandora, Dreamer, or Nekima. Pandora is a smaller more tight-knit crew that wants to sit in one place. She's a very different play than Euri. Dreamer can run the board with the correct build (Widow Weaver, Bandersnatch) and his Terrifying models give them a measure of tanky-ness. Nekima is just unbridled aggression. Euri can beat face when he needs to, but Nekima lives in your opponents deployment zone killing models turn 2. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regelridderen Posted April 29, 2021 Report Share Posted April 29, 2021 I can only recommend Pandora. She is very rewarding to play - and a horror to your opponents. Dreamer is a blast as well. And he is finally being brought in line. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hahnberger Posted April 30, 2021 Report Share Posted April 30, 2021 I agree with the above suggestions. I've been experimenting with Euripides second master. With intuition and old ways, he has a lot of utility without requiring high cards, and his high health pool and teleporting bonus trigger can often keep him kinda safe. He brings a lot of disruption to the table, blocking LoS and giving cover to your crew while dropping tons of shockwaves. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
