the_madhatter1 Posted February 20, 2012 Report Share Posted February 20, 2012 (edited) So with the soon release of Tuco (one of my favourite characters in Malifaux) and the fantastic altLilith model, I am very much tempted to get a a small, simple 25ss Lilith crew with Tuco, also with a minimal cost. So if anybody has any suggestions for a crew it would be appreciated Edited February 20, 2012 by the_madhatter1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
micahwc Posted February 20, 2012 Report Share Posted February 20, 2012 Could you be a little more specific please? What do you want to do with the crew? Do you want to take a lot of tots and grow them? Do you want Tuco and a couple of young? What are you trying to accomplish. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the_madhatter1 Posted February 20, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 20, 2012 Well something that can be good at most strategies and which is isn't to hard to use, nephilim probs for fluffiness. Not to bothered about grow shenanigans, the idea of tuco and a couple of young sounds good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Culven Posted February 21, 2012 Report Share Posted February 21, 2012 I just played a game with Tuco and Lelu/Lilitu. Honestly, Tuco doesn't have a lot of synergy with the Nephilim. He is only really useful if facing Family because he will be more likely to generate Blood Tokens. If you want a gerneralist force, I wouldn't take Tuco. So, you are pretty much left with Lilith and some Tots, Young, and maybe a Mature Nephilim. Then you will have mobility and some offensive capabilities able to handle most objectives. If you want Tuco, you should have him in addition to a 25 SS crew in case you are playing Perdita. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the_madhatter1 Posted February 21, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 21, 2012 Well I'm surprised then coz on paper Tuco looks wonderful with Lilith, he has good movement, AoE damage which is something Lils is lacking, and quite resilient, especially when he has cast veil appearance. The main reason that I wanted a Lilith crew was to include Tuco so I think I'll just go ahead and get him anyway Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Calmdown Posted February 21, 2012 Report Share Posted February 21, 2012 Tuco is fabulous, in the running for best minion in the book (in a vacuum anyway). 25ss Lilith I'd run something like this: Lilith (6ss) Primordial Magic Lelu Lilitu Tuco Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jewomie Posted February 21, 2012 Report Share Posted February 21, 2012 Calmdown's list is really spot on. for 25 that is a pretty solid list. one i plan on running actually! I also like the Black Blood shaman, and terror tots are underrated in my opinion... although i'm not terribly into the grow shenanagins, if you were playing a 35 game a tot and a shaman might be a good addition, still leaving you a couple stones.

micahwc Posted February 21, 2012 Report Share Posted February 21, 2012 Calmdown, I have learned to respect your opinion on these forums, which is why I need to ask this: Why is Tuco one of the best minions in the book? Could you elaborate please? Thanks a lot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
