Lilith crewette

[Joel]

I don't see malifaux as a list building game as such - a lot has to be done on the fly when you see your board and know your strategy and opposing faction.

However, building modules that can be worked around seems plausible and useful.

Module is such a bad word though, so is component - so I'm going with crewette until someone stops me

This crewette is for Lilith and has grown out of a couple of games I've had today and a little thought. It's no super combo, just a useful collection of models that might find a home in a list is you have a particular job to do.

Lilith
baby kade
teddy

That's 15 stones. The job here involes the movement tricks. With transposition and where's teddy some possible tricks suggest themselves. Since kade is a melee expert he can strike and swap with teddy in the same activation. With kade's lure, teddy's smell fear and out of control and Lilith's earthquake, more movement possibilities ensue. All of the crewette can hit hard and each can do something the others can't. With a totem for Lilith for another casting of transposition, bouncing around the board with these models becomes quite an easy option.

See how this slots into your Lilith crew and let me know how you go

This sounds like a lot of fun to me! I would be willing to give it a go except I have neither kade nor teddy. Nobody at my LGS is opposed to proxies though, so I'm sure I will be able to give this a try and provide some feedback.

[Mournafein]

The only problem I can see with it is the activation amount. You would have to prepare to be out activated every turn, so the opponent would have more freedom. I have to admit, though, it does sound pretty fun. Teddy and Kade alone are nothing to scoff at, but throw in Lilith, a primordial magic, and maybe a Black blood shaman (To give nephilim for Lilith companioning, maybe), and you've got a pretty murderous list.

I tried the crewette in a 40ss game tonight, full crew was:

Lilith, 6ss
Primordial magic
Baby kade
Teddy
Coppelius
Doppelgänger
Hodgepodge effigy

Had a shared turf war against Colette, took breakthrough and stake a claim. With both doppleganger and vomit worm able to earthquake and transposition things movement triks were everywhere. The doppleganger also copied the wk and flight from a mechanical dove to stake the claim with a 20" move

Hodgepodge effigy would have been dropped if I'd had a terrortot painted, but happy with how the crew functioned. Won 8-2
