Fiona's Lich List

July 2nd

My local crew goes by the handle, the Cog Collective. Post Lock and Load, one of our more prominent players has decided to turn to Cryx. This leads me to the Quandary Zone!

Todays quandary, how to beat epic Asphyxious with Fiona.

    * Rocinante (9pts)
    Alexia Ciannor & the Risen (Alexia and 9 Risen Grunts) (5pts)
    Dannon Blythe & Bull (4pts)
    Lady Aiyana & Master Holt (4pts)
    Press Gangers (Leader and 9 Grunts) (6pts)
    Press Gangers (Leader and 9 Grunts) (6pts)
    Sea Dog Crew (Leader and 9 Grunts) (8pts)
    * Mr. Walls Sea Dog Crew Quartermaster (2pts)
    Bosun Grogspar (2pts)
    Doc Killingsworth (2pts)
    Eiryss, Angel of Retribution (3pts)
    First Mate Hawk (2pts)
    Ragman (2pts)
    Reinholdt, Gobber Speculator (1pts)

The main weapon here are the Press Gangers. Being able to cycle Banes and Satyxis into Sea Dogs will hopefully help to mitigate their returning on Gaspy's feat turn. Blythe and Bull are there for more Remove From Play (RFP) action.

Even with Killingsworth and Grogspar there to keep the Press Gangers on their feet and in the fight, four plus tough is not forever. Alexia will gather their souls, hopefully denying them to Gaspy, and creating my own private army of the undead.

Between Nonokrion Brand from Fiona and Aiyana giving magic weapons, the Press Gangers and Seadogs should be able to deal with any incorporeal models that try to get in. Mr. Walls gets Telgash Mark so that Fiona can spell sling a bit. Rheinholdt will help make things more dependable if Fiona has to spell something to death.

Normally, I would take a Vanguard with her. However, Shield Guard is unlikely to be needed against Gaspy. Guard Dog from Rocinante may prove more useful to keeping her alive.

Ragman and Eiryss are there for some utility: some armor and kill some upkeeps. It's unlikely that Eiryss will be able to shoot focus off Gaspy, but you never know.

So, just need to get me more Press Gangers and Alexia, then the list is go. I'm comin' for you, lich!
