Regelridderen Posted April 29, 2022 Report Share Posted April 29, 2022 Flank deployment Corrupted Ley Lines. Vendetta, Claim Jump, Assassinate, Hidden Martyrs, Catch and Release Yan Lo (The Whisper) + Soul Porter + 6 Stones Manos Yin Izamu Chiaki Komainu w. Grave Spirit’s Touch and went for Claim Jump w. Izamu and the Komainu had a Vendetta vs an Investigator. versus Lucius2 + Scribe + 4 Stones Alan Reid Mysterious Emissary Investigator x2 False Witness x2 w. Ancient Pact Chose Assassinate and Hidden Martyrs (Investigator + False Witness). Great fun. The Lucius crew was a lot faster than I’d imagined, while the ancestors were remarkably tough. I’d heard poor things about errataed Chiaki, but fluting her reliquae out was instrumental in keeping Staggered off of the ancestors. The investigators surprised by taking down Izamu in one round - they hit surprisingly hard, once staggered is out. There went Claim Jump. And I made a few mistakes stumbling with the ball, so only scored 2 strategy points - as a pesky false witness interfered with the third. But the komainu scored it’s vendetta vs. the investigator for a total of Four Points Lucy got himself killed by Yan Lo, but his crew kept it going on. Scoring 4 points from the strategy, ending on a brilliant Grasping Tentacles from the Mysterous Emissary to foil Yan from getting at the False Witness scoring last point. While protecting the komainu in the last turn meant killing an investigator and giving Lucy a Hidden Martyr for 1 point for a total of Five Points - A great game and a great crew though, faster and more resilient than I thought. Had I been a little cleverer, I would have made a couple of extra points from strategy, and had I believed more in the crews resilience, I’d gone for Assassination.

Interesting write-up, but just a heads up that Chiaki can't hand out her own reliquary. It requires handing out a reliquary from a model in range, and she isn't in range of her own pulse. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course, she could have dispelled magic, but … luckily I was playing both sides, so I only cheated myself 😄 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
