I'll try it out next time I play Lynch, especially since it gives me a chance to try my under-used Archers again too. :)Adrianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11690272353647617507noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6647791620427346738.post-4114907098888973852016-02-15T16:54:10.819-08:002016-02-15T16:54:10.819-08:00Cool.

I originally considered playing mcCabe as my first crew, but decided on Jakob Lynch instead. <br /><br />I ended up buying bought the box anyway mostly just so I could have Sidir Alchibal... as you mentioned in another post I saw, Lynch is a bit vulnerable -- Sidir seemed to be a great choice for bodyguard, especially combined with some Ten Thunders Archers to provide some ranged support to the melee/brilliance action of Hungering Darkness and the Illuminated (plus, Sidir and the archers have a synergistic combo regarding Slow)Kid Electrichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02273244786040406244noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6647791620427346738.post-64797372062304654392014-04-07T17:03:03.759-07:002014-04-07T17:03:03.759-07:00Thanks!

I'm never going to "Master" each crew from just one game, but it is giving me a good idea of how they work. ;)<br /><br />I've always tended more toward minion-heavy "horde" crews, hence my liking for the Badge of Speed. But a henchman/enforcer heavy crew definitely has potential when combined with Promises. As I said above I kind of like the idea of Samurai with the 0SS upgrades too - they get all of the benefits without the having to pay a small fortune for upgrades.Adrianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11690272353647617507noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6647791620427346738.post-76929159071843748322014-04-07T12:24:38.857-07:002014-04-07T12:24:38.857-07:00Great post, and I think it says just about everyth...Great post, and I think it says just about everything that can be said about McCabe so soon after the release of his rules. One of many things I love about Malifaux is the number of possibilities for each activation and McCabe really embodies that by his ability to pass on upgrades with new actions to his crew. I haven't really given him much of a go in M2E and I think that there would be a lot to learn no matter how you build him. You mentioned a balance between Minions and upgrade-bearing options, but simply leave the Badge of Speed at home (in exchange for Promises, perhaps) and an all-Henchman crew suddenly becomes quite appealing. <br /><br />I love the painting too. I didn't think that Wastrels would have suited a backpack, but apparently they do.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
