fritz the cat Posted August 3, 2012 Report Share Posted August 3, 2012 also they can be given use soulstone in a colette crew if you want to make that lure tough to resist Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nix Posted August 3, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 3, 2012 Also, don't get confused, they need a 6 of Crows or Masks to make this work. It's a 17 card pool instead of a 9. Also, one more incredible thing: Cassandra has access to Trainquil Dance. Very true, but also remember that with a 9 or better of any suit, the Mannequin can give them the :masks so that they can cast on a 6 or better of any suit. this opens things up nicely, but requires that 9 before hand.

Yup. There really is no shortage of ways to make casting Lure a sure thing. ---------- Post added at 05:50 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:59 PM ---------- Escorts is a misprint: It should say Oiran.

Jonas Albrecht Posted August 4, 2012 Report Share Posted August 4, 2012 If there's one model that I would say is ripe for an alt, it's this one. I realize it's a bit too soon to be expecting such a thing, but I'd say one that matched Colette's crew would be worth $100 in purchases.

Cats Laughing Posted August 4, 2012 Report Share Posted August 4, 2012 Also, one more incredible thing: Cassandra has access to Trainquil Dance. As do Myranda, Molly and Ponto, iirc. Could be pretty interesting, perhaps... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Q'iq'el Posted August 4, 2012 Report Share Posted August 4, 2012 I'm sure they will work great in Colette's crew because of other abilities, but I'm not sure if the Lure isn't a bit redundant. Mobile as showgirls are, Lure is mostly for messing up opponent's plans rather than moving faster/getting the target closer the way other crews tend to do it. But that duplicates Siren's Call which essentially is good enough, especially when cast by Casandra. I guess no such thing as too many instances of Lure in a crew.

LoboStele Posted August 4, 2012 Report Share Posted August 4, 2012 These are fantastic models, let along how beautiful the sculpt is. Will be very interesting to work these into my Colette crews. I think Tranquil Dance is actually the biggest boost they offer. Lure is just a bonus. The ability to completely shut down your opponent's Cb and Df triggers is absolutely devastating against Melee centric crews, which, in my experience, has always been Colette's weak point. She has much less to fear from Chompy or Lillith if they can't get any triggers off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keltheos Posted August 5, 2012 Report Share Posted August 5, 2012 eavesdropper refers to 'Escorts'?? :-/ Escort = Oiran. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Odin1981 Posted August 7, 2012 Report Share Posted August 7, 2012 So essentially this model is angelica #2 and #3 if you take them without the austringer companion but they have lure instead or is their something i'm missing looking at the card?

supercalisto Posted August 14, 2012 Report Share Posted August 14, 2012 I going to split a pack of these with my friend 2 for me, one for him. Should be a great add to my Colette crew Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noa Posted August 16, 2012 Report Share Posted August 16, 2012 So then, now with the Oiran running around (about to anyways) what do you all think the Colette crew lists will look like now? How many of these would you put in? What do you think the list would look like for say a 25ss to a 35ss crew? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boardgameguy Posted August 16, 2012 Report Share Posted August 16, 2012 It takes care of Angelica for me with tranquil dance and I'm lovin the DS bonus. *rubs hands together* Colette gets some new toys. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrazyCarl Posted August 16, 2012 Report Share Posted August 16, 2012 I think the ability to shut down cb and df triggers cOuld prove useful. They'll be a 1+ when vs neverborn. Otherwise, time will tell. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sybarite Posted December 20, 2012 Report Share Posted December 20, 2012 So, now that it's been a while and people have had time to try out the oiran. What are your thoughts? Do they work well with Colette? Any neat tricks to share? How do you fit them into your crews? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonas Albrecht Posted December 20, 2012 Report Share Posted December 20, 2012 Any neat tricks to share? Not so much a trick, but Colette makes getting Eavesdropper absolutely trivial. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
