Hatchethead Posted August 5, 2011 Report Share Posted August 5, 2011 I love this model. I'm so very, VERY happy that it's Resurrectionist and not Outcast, and extremely pleased that it's only part of Doug's avatar. Very interested to see what happens to McM himself during his manifestation ... Thanks for the details, Goblyn! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mekboy Posted August 6, 2011 Report Share Posted August 6, 2011 To hell with the victory points, this will definitely be my new goal in the game. I better go sharpen my scalpel.:decaypuppet In our group there's been a running contest between the three McMourning players to see who can collect the most body parts in one game. The record is currently 34 at once. Also, loving the Stein avatar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ravenswood Posted August 6, 2011 Report Share Posted August 6, 2011 He keeps Rancid Transplant, and can summon 29 (Simulacrum 29) for 6 body parts if its not already on the table. Sounds nice! I'm very happy that it's not McMourning avatar but part of him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hatchethead Posted August 6, 2011 Report Share Posted August 6, 2011 Really? No one has re-posted theCurkov's Book 3 Twitter pic of Doug's avatar? Allow me! Douglas McKrueger? Yes please! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jmach Posted August 7, 2011 Report Share Posted August 7, 2011 (edited) Nice to see that it's only part and a summonable monster and not his actual avatar. Edited August 7, 2011 by Jmach Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hatchethead Posted August 7, 2011 Report Share Posted August 7, 2011 Ninja'd!! Rumors indicate that Doug himself goes completely around the bend, concerning himself primarily with the children of Elm St. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dgraz Posted August 7, 2011 Report Share Posted August 7, 2011 Rumors indicate that Doug himself goes completely around the bend, concerning himself primarily with the children of Elm St. and that Coppelius arrives when Doug manifests so that it can put those children to sleep.

Dr.Feelgood Posted August 8, 2011 Report Share Posted August 8, 2011 Is it funny that i can see a way to get his requirements fulfilled in one activation? Pick a weaker enemy... 1. (0)Scalpel Slingin for low damage and one body part. 2. (1)Rancid Transplant :+fate. 3. (1)Surgical Implements strike for low damage and one body part. 4. (+1)Discard body part for fast. 5. (1)Dissection for enough damage to finish the enemy model and three body parts. You need two body parts to start with and a few good cards in hand and a weak enemy within six inches. It will take the entire activation but if you can pull it off it would cover both the requirements for McMournings Avatar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Though it requires a lot of stuff to go right, needing good cards (as you mentioned) and possibly costing a soulstone or two. Perfect storm. Still, very nice.

Dr.Feelgood Posted August 8, 2011 Report Share Posted August 8, 2011 Cool! Though it requires a lot of stuff to go right, needing good cards (as you mentioned) and possibly costing several soulstones. Perfect storm. Still, very nice. That's why it really hinges on comboing against the weakest enemy in the board. Hopefully they will really increase the odds of success. I really just cannot wait to give it an attempt.

It actually lists that as a rule to manifest the avatars? Well if that is the case several of the requirements for some of the avatars are going to be ridiculously difficult to complete.

edonil Posted August 9, 2011 Report Share Posted August 9, 2011 Considering how crazy the Avatars have the potential to be, I'm not about to complain. And no, I don't think they're about to break the game, but, for instance, take a look at Sonnia, or Rasputina, or Lillith. Would you rather those things were easy? Now, about this rule about only meeting one requirement per action...does that mean Sonnia's requirements of 2 Infernos and 10 Wds with spells...any Wds caused by Inferno won't count?

hippieshopper Posted August 9, 2011 Report Share Posted August 9, 2011 From my understanding avatars are like a laundry list of things you have to do to get them? I thought it'd be like a Barb's Rage in D&D...you did and and then you'd get pooped out and couldn't do it again. Are they treated like separate models with different stats? At least give us that much, I noticed the Jekyl/Hyde thing with Seamus, I had a feeling where he'd go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edonil Posted August 9, 2011 Report Share Posted August 9, 2011 Yeah, they all have some stat changes that are pretty big depending on who they are. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hippieshopper Posted August 11, 2011 Report Share Posted August 11, 2011 Yup, I saw more and I love it! It's about time the under-rated Ressers got some love. With Seamus...I mean the hulk scaring the pants of everything...MCM and his buddy punching faces and Nico crapping out MZs like nobodies business...I think I like book 3.

Necromorph Posted August 11, 2011 Report Share Posted August 11, 2011 (edited) Mcm is a 2 part Avatar. That art is for Simulacrum 29, which summons when he Manifests his avatar. Mcm himself looks pretty similar, except that he has freddy krueger like claws and a syringe in his hands. Yes, they are treated as separate models with separate stats. Mcm loses a little combat utility for some more heals / buffs, specifically ones that benefit '29. 29 then stomps around and kills stuff with buffs from Mcm. He can also resummon 29 if it dies, but the summoned 29 takes wounds when it enters play. Good thing mcm has damn good heals for him, haha.

legionaires Posted August 12, 2011 Report Share Posted August 12, 2011 Thanks for all the info Necromorph. I am so ready to get my hands on Big Mac and the Special Sauce (My nickname for McM and 29) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
