Nirvanawn Posted December 24, 2010 Report Share Posted December 24, 2010 Has anyone used crooked men with Levi. I am making a Levi crew and want to try crooked men. Is it worth the investment? I do love the idea of the model. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cannonball Posted December 24, 2010 Report Share Posted December 24, 2010 Well getting Bury to trigger looks a lot easier with Leveticus's [1]Blessings of Desolation. Otherwise not too much in the way of great match ups to be had there. That said they are cheap minions with some decent abilities for their points.

tadaka Posted December 24, 2010 Report Share Posted December 24, 2010 They are great VS in your face crews. Lord chomp, Lady J, lilth. This does not realy change for a levi based crew. The only thing I find about them that changes in a levi crew is they make it stupid easy to make sure he dies each turn. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can I ask how come? I'm curious as I play Seamus and I'm thinking about picking up Levi as he looks like he'll use a lot of the same models.

The Green Git Posted December 25, 2010 Report Share Posted December 25, 2010 I find them fairly useful and in 35SS games will likely be taking two or three. At 4 SS each they are cheap, and the Shafted ability helps in area denial. The Crooked Men also help in the ranged attack department with their Cave-In spell. They are not Insignificant, so can claim table quarters etc. Their speed is decent and they can Paralyze in a couple different ways so help with big nasties. One thing that seems like it works good is using them to form a pocket with Shafted markers while you advance. Keep them at a little over 2" in front of your front ranks and if anyone tries to charge you they'll end up in marker effect range. Of course you won't be in melee either but with Leveticus' Unnatural Wasting and Entropic Transformation you can keep things at bay while you, well, waste them. Any 7 wound or less model will die in one turn to this combo and will net you a Hollowed Waif or Steampunk Abomination to boot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can do the same thing with alice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Green Git Posted December 25, 2010 Report Share Posted December 25, 2010 Um have him hit the shafted markers. Free damage. Can do the same thing with alice With near a 50% chance of merely Paralyzing Leveticus, I think I'll pass on running him into the Shafted counters. Sounds like a good way to get your Master and Hollowed Waif(s) killed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tadaka Posted December 25, 2010 Report Share Posted December 25, 2010 I normally put out multiple and you can all ways just shoot him. Its not like its hard to kill him as is but some times it can be usefull Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LastDinosaur Posted December 25, 2010 Report Share Posted December 25, 2010 Shafted markers would be one of the last ways I'd consider to kill my own Leveticus... O_o Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
