DaveZee Posted August 27, 2012 Report Share Posted August 27, 2012 I have a Kirai crew on the way, but I want to start planning my second crew while eagerly awaiting Yan Lo to be released. I know there is no real overlap with Kirai and the other existing Resser Masters, but I was wondering who is the best compliment to Kirai's style, so I have the option to go with a different playstyle if the scenario or opponent calls for it.

snord Posted August 27, 2012 Report Share Posted August 27, 2012 I've been trying to answer this same question since I started Malifaux a couple years back and Kirai was my first master... the best I could come up with was McMourning, simply because he is a great melee master while Kirai is a support master. For schemes like shared contain power, Kirai is really limited to 2VPs out the 4VPs, since it would be really really hard for her to kill opponent's master herself, while McMorning is not shy about doing it himself.

DaveZee Posted August 27, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 27, 2012 Well, at least I feel encouraged that this is a legitimate question. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adanedhel Posted August 27, 2012 Report Share Posted August 27, 2012 Honestly? Yan Lo , he has some spirit synergy (including the ability to become a spirit himself, and eventually a mass obey on spirits ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ratty Posted August 27, 2012 Report Share Posted August 27, 2012 Seamus has the most minion cross over. I quite regularly run Hanged with both Seamus and Kiria, along with Night Terrors, Onryo and Jack Daw. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Huang Da Wei Posted August 27, 2012 Report Share Posted August 27, 2012 Best compliment to Kirai? I am not sure about best but the worst one must be "wow,you look sexy, fancy a quick one in the alley"? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dracomax Posted August 27, 2012 Report Share Posted August 27, 2012 Best compliment to Kirai? I am not sure about best but the worst one must be "wow,you look sexy, fancy a quick one in the alley"? I'm so glad I'm not the only one who read it that way. My response would have probably been "no, those scissors don't make you look fat" followed by messy evisceration.

DaveZee Posted August 27, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 27, 2012 Nice work, Dracomax and Huang Da Wei! :1_Happy_Puppet1: Actually, I was thinking the best compliment would be "Wow, you would be pretty if you didn't cry so much."

Silas Cordell Posted August 27, 2012 Report Share Posted August 27, 2012 Seamus and McMourning both compliment her style well. Just don't pick Nico if that's what you want. They are (sort of) similar styles, but use none of the same models. As far as Contain Power goes, her avatar means she is no longer limited to 2 VP. I still think McMouning is better at it, but Kirai CAN get 4 VP now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaveZee Posted August 28, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 28, 2012 Well, dang. I was hoping Nicodem would be a good second choice to fill in match up gaps for Kirai, mostly because my oldest son, who is a gamer like his dad, will want to play, too. I want to stay away from dead prostitutes and bimbo nurses if at all possible. Hopefully, Yan Lo will give some help on that front, too.

Ratty Posted August 28, 2012 Report Share Posted August 28, 2012 You really don't need Bimbo Nurses to make McMourning work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dgraz Posted August 28, 2012 Report Share Posted August 28, 2012 I find the best compliment for Kirai to be the business end of a Peacebringer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SilverBullet Posted August 28, 2012 Report Share Posted August 28, 2012 Well if you ever plan on playing brawls (rare I know but) then Nico and Kirai are a brilliant combination. Pretty much every model killed is two for you! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaveZee Posted August 28, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 28, 2012 I know I am fooling myself if I think I wont eventually get all the resser crews, but I can, at least, get them in an efficient manner. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blog Posted August 28, 2012 Report Share Posted August 28, 2012 McMourning. Tons of fun. Ridiculous avatar. McMourning, his chiuaua, and a bunch of 4-5ss random undead stuff. Having a cache of 6 and out numbering your opponent with rezzers is so freakin' cool. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clement Posted August 28, 2012 Report Share Posted August 28, 2012 Shouldn't be too hard to put the list together. In terms of cost I wonder if its worth buying the box and "losing" the nurses or buying the good doctor, sebastian, and the construct individually.

Sebastian could easily be skipped if you want, which makes the box completely unnecessary. Of course, that works best if you already have the Nico and Seamus boxes... Anyway, Nurses aren't great, and Sebastian isn't top tier. Belles, on the other hand, are very, very good. Bottom line: Ressers just have a higher entry cost than some of the other factions out there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
