The Road to Adepticon is paved with Corpses Rancor709's tourney prep

[Fetid Strumpet]

The better distinction would be Kirai, or Ressers?

[rancor709]

Resser I dont' and won't own Kirari

[rancor709]

Allow me to expound on my last point.

I love Book 1 masters, I feel they don't get the love they deserve anymore because of the glory that is book 2. When I got back into the game I wanted to showcase my faction without the spirit master additionally one of my regular opponents first crews was Kirari and didn't want to mirror match. As I have progressed over the last few years with malifaux, the iconic book 1 resser masters have been what have inspired me in the game. So at adepticon story encounters and if I decide that I want to double duty, the masters will be strait book 1 ressers and molly as an option.

But I'm also some one who likes to make what isn't considered optimal into something that is difficult for my opponents to deal with.

[Calmdown]

Kirai.

It has one R.

Sorry

Spelling is not one of my strong suits, Business degrees fail to provide you with the mastery of english spelling, which is why my wife has an English degree and frequently checks my spelling.

Update

Built the Good Doctor McMourning today along with his Zombie totem. Built out my second pack of Mindless Zombies, and built my second blister of Night Terrors.

Played a 25 soulstone game against Raspy.

Strategy Shared Escape and Survive
Raspy-
Essense of Power
Silent One
Snow Storm

Schemes-Bodyguard on Raspy and Raspy Special one of killing with her blast

Seamus
Dead Rider
Grave spirit
3x Night Terrors

Schemes-Breakthrough and Frame for Murder on Dead Rider

Intense Game that I won 3-0,

Highlights Dead Rider enganging his entire crew at once and some how surviving, both raspy, essense of power and snow storms attacks and tying his entire crew in melee for 2 and half turns. Nearly killing raspy all by itself, effectively killing his Silent one, putting 4 wounds on it and then poisoning it for 2. Raspy got to use biting chill and her melee attack this game and that was it.

Seamus moved up the side of the board and then circled over to finish off raspy, raise belles out of Raspy and the silent one, and managed to Slit Juggular Snowstorm on turn 6 with a no escape charge.

Game ends Snowstorm does his flip and can't beat 12
he dies, No models remaining for Raspy crew, I had 2 of my orginal starting crew left, my one Night Terror and Seamus so I got no points for the Main Strategy outside of the additional VP for having more models alive then my opponent. I had break through firmly as all 4 of my models were in his deployment zone at the end of turn 6. Dead Rider died to a last ditch melee strike for the essense of Power.

Raspy crew was unable to complete any of there schemes and had no points from the Strategy

Result 3-0 win for Seamus and company.

Analysis

Wow 3 night Terrors moves like few things in the game, I was in his deployment zone with in 2 turns. Could have played it sounder, by keeping the terrors out of harms way. Seamus was fun to play tonight first time he's been that for me in a while. I really just went and played the mission for the most part and worked at getting my victory points.

Dead rider is insanely good, I have nothing bad to say about him other than I don't like how h2w2 works but I actually cheated down in one instance so it would only be a single negative flip.

I think the crew I constructed fit the mission and fit the schemes well. I could have alternatively gone Dead Rider Vonschill Gravespirit but I prefered the ability to out activate my opponent and snowstorms eternal cover is annoying for ranged weapons to deal with.

Man I need to get some painting done for Adepticon. I finally got over my bad case of the Skyrims so I have actually made a dent in the terrian building but I got a stack of minis that need to be painted for my Guild crew and demos. Of course I see a massive case of Mass Effect 3itis coming on in two weeks. So I got to take advantage of the time I have

[rancor709]

Nilus just take it a mini at a time and go from there. And n additional question should I punish my brain with the friday masters event after the team tourney, as I'm doing the stupor bowl saturday

[nilus]

Yes, you must punish your brain.

Besides I am playing in that tourney. Don't you want a chance to take me down a few pegs

[rancor709]

See that's the kind of foward thinking i'm looking for Nilus. Yeah that makes it very tempting indeed.
