The Dreamer and his Toy-Box

[graeme27uk]

I have this idea in my head which I quite like, but not sure if it works. The Dreamer appeals to my twisted sense of humour as having a child think that he is dreaming and playing with things is quite fun. I have found various miniatures that can be used to represent his Toy-box... so:

1) Do Collodi and The Dreamer work well together?

2) Would these also fit the theme?

3) Would a crew of The Dreamer and just "toys" work for most strategies?

I have tried these together, but it was before the dreamer errata. The link between the two of them are the stitched together...if you don't want them in, I'd suggest not putting collodi and dreamer together.

Effectivly you have two kill teams, mobility is not a problem, but soulstones might be!

Cant say I like the teddies (any of them), but those toy soldiers are great! I'm buying some myself now!

I played Dreamer/Collodi Pre-Errata. And I can definitely vouch for them working well together. And Post-Errata, I can see them working well together still, if anything Dreamer will require the mobility of Collodi even more.

Collodi and Marrionettes, with 3 Stitched and 2 Daydreams leaves you with 5SS, which is usually enough for me, unless I need to get a new Daydream. But sensible play can help you avoid that. =]

For me it'd be 2 stitched, 3 daydreams (using your toy soldiers), and 8 stones. I find that chompy needs them more than ever since the errat and collodi can always benefit too.
