Gdead909 Posted June 6, 2012 Report Share Posted June 6, 2012 Maybe its cause I am new but I don't see a lot of people talk about how amazing she is with him. Or maybe its cause everyone already knows lol. Well I made my first seamus list tell me what you guys think. Also did the errata molly or can you still summon a rogue necro on just two corpse counters? Ressurectionists Crew - 35 - Scrap Seamus, The Mad-Hatter -- 2 Pool Copycat Killer [2ss] Molly Squidpiddge [9ss] Grave Spirit [1ss] Canine Remains [2ss] Canine Remains [2ss] Dead Doxy [5ss] Madame Sybelle [6ss] Rotten Belles [4ss] Rotten Belles [4ss] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sezar Posted June 6, 2012 Report Share Posted June 6, 2012 You could never summon a Rogue Necromancy off 2 corpse counters, at least not with Molly nor Seamus! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dumb Luck Posted June 6, 2012 Report Share Posted June 6, 2012 Been toying with a similar duet of Master/Henchmen for the UK Doubles next year with my esteemed collegue, Lord of Stuff. First two things I'd do though is knock Seamus' cache through the roof and take the avatar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neverata Posted June 6, 2012 Report Share Posted June 6, 2012 I feel like giving you discounted entry just because I feel so proud that you're moving on from Gremlins.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gdead909 Posted June 7, 2012 Author Report Share Posted June 7, 2012 Bah I knew it was too good to be true lol. so can she summon doxys because theyre belles? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mergoth Posted June 7, 2012 Report Share Posted June 7, 2012 how amazing she is with him. Or maybe its cause everyone already knows lol. This. ;-) Bah I knew it was too good to be true lol. so can she summon doxys because theyre belles? Yep, summon away. Belles and Horrors with a 30mm base. It also doesn't state non-character so she can summon Madame Sybelle as well. I like your list as it's fluffy, but I think the dogs don't really have a place there. I'd drop them both and have a 6SS pool to dip into during the game, as you have two SS users on the board. You could also exchange Copycat Killer for another Grave Spirit so you can link one to each Sybelle and Molly and tank your way around the board! Remember as well that Molly is a Belle so Sybelle's Call Belle spell will work on her for a quick boost across the board. If you'd like to balance the list a bit, you could also swap out the Doxy for a Convict Gunslinger (and summon in the Doxy if you need it when stuff starts to die).

Gdead909 Posted June 7, 2012 Author Report Share Posted June 7, 2012 The dogs were just there to provide me with some corpse counters when I thought I could summon the rogue necro lol. I didn't know I could double up totems like that. Thats awesome! I guess without the rogue I should switch some stuff around. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gruesome Posted June 7, 2012 Report Share Posted June 7, 2012 First two things I'd do though is knock Seamus' cache through the roof and take the avatar. QFT. Since I've started playing with Seamus, that is how I actually START building my lists. Step 1: Get Avatar Step 2: 8 Soulstones Step 3: Pick crew Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gdead909 Posted June 7, 2012 Author Report Share Posted June 7, 2012 now since you go avatar do you try to make ur whole list terrifying? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gruesome Posted June 7, 2012 Report Share Posted June 7, 2012 (edited) now since you go avatar do you try to make ur whole list terrifying? Sort of, but not specifically because of the terrifying, more because Seamus needs so many SS for himself that I cannot afford too many models. I almost auto-take 8 SS, which for Seamus means -6 SS from total. Add another 2 for Avatar and I am already down 8SS before building a crew. I like Sybelle with him because she hits decent and is faster with him before he manifests. Her terrifying is just an added bonus. I also like to take a hanged because of his combat trigger and his two 1 action spells that are a lure-sorta thing and the one that takes away half their wounds and prevents healing. Again, with him, the fact that he is terrifying is an added bonus. With the rest of the points, I usually take at least 1 Rotten belle for helping either pull someone towards Seamus, or for pulling Seamus out of something I do not want him in. Any remaining points I want speed and hitting for things that Seamus cannot reach that can hurt him or for objectives. I have a game tonight in which we pre-announced our lists and I am quite concerned. We knew what factions we were playing and I had a 1 in 4 chance of fighting a lot of living so I did not follow my own advice above about the quick hitters for tracking down threats and did this: Ressurectionists Crew - 35 - Scrap Seamus, The Mad-Hatter -- 5 Pool + Seamus, Avatar of Dread [2ss] Jack Daw [10ss] Rotten Belles [4ss] The Hanged [8ss] The Hanged [8ss] I have never tried Jack Daw and have been looking for a reason to try him. I love the idea of getting aSeamus and Jack Daw near any clump of them and removing their ability to cheat the 800000 WP checks I will have them take for terrifying and bellow of the big bastard, while The Hanged run around giving them -WP flips and halving their wounds, etc... I found out this morning I am facing: Guild Crew - 35 - Scrap C. Hoffman -- 7 Pool Brutal Effigy [4ss] Guardian [7ss] Hunter [6ss] Peacekeeper [9ss] Watcher [3ss] Watcher [3ss] D'oh! So, all the regular terrifying of Hanged and Jack are useless because of all the constructs and the watchers scare the heck out of me because of their stupid combat trigger that REMOVES TERRIFYING FROM TARGET MODEL! They have a range of 16 inches, are faster than anything I have and are Immune to Influence, so I cannot pull them closer with the belle or the hanged to actually be able to kill them. So, they will be able to snipe Seamus' terrifying from range anytime he wants and I have to rely on hopefully being in combat ALWAYS so that maybe he hits another model and when he does hit me, I have to hope I can always win the duel. I also cannot use Jack Daw to remove the ability to cheat from my melee "clump" because I will likely need to be able to cheat against the dang watcher. Still... I am looking forward to it because despite everything, he is still fun as heck to play. Edited June 7, 2012 by Gruesome Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mergoth Posted June 7, 2012 Report Share Posted June 7, 2012 I have never tried Jack Daw and have been looking for a reason to try him. There is never a reason to not use Jack Daw... unless of course you'd like to keep your friends. I jest. Kinda. He's utterly brutal in the right place at the right time.

Gdead909 Posted June 8, 2012 Author Report Share Posted June 8, 2012 If ur worried about wp immunities couldn't you add an onryo? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gruesome Posted June 8, 2012 Report Share Posted June 8, 2012 We had to postpone the game(forgot I had a softball game), but I am less worried about the match-up than I was because I remembered that we actually flipped Shared Slaughter. Which is feeling like a lucky pick for me since there is not a place on the board I need to specifically be that would open me up to watcher ranged attacks. I can stay out of LoS and if he ventures near my hiding place, hopefully I can run down his watchers and end their threat. Onryo might be nice, but my list for this match is set now. My thinking on it now is that I am going to take Bodyguard, which I normally do not like to take in one-off games simply because I do not like being used to always having it. At tournaments, you really need to pick and choose schemes, so I like to practice everything other than bodyguard. I am not sure what other scheme to take yet. My primary concern is to avoid being forced to expose myself as much as possible so I have to give it some thought. Aside from the watchers, I would be pretty excited about the match-up. Anyway, we'll see. One side thing I have been wondering is what anyone's thoughts are on the Carrion Effigy with aSeamus? I can sort of see some nice things going on between him letting my models eat corpse counters for heals and removing immunities... I have been trying to find a use for him and wish I had thought to include him in this list. Removing Immune to Influence would be so nice... I suspect he would be immediately targeted, but again, if I am hidden behind a building models would need to come to me, so who knows...

GAH Posted June 8, 2012 Report Share Posted June 8, 2012 I don't like Seamus, so I prefer taking Molly with McMourning. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
