[DECK] The Motorcity Madman

Hi again kids. Built my own version of Erik Torstenssons "Die Kuchenfrau goes mad"-deck. Sure, Earth Meld is cheaper than Majesty, but good old archbishop determines range all by himself, and Using the advantage enables niiiiiice bloating. Slow setup. OK, this is not a TWD, but it works better than I thought. You try - you might like.

I could be wrong since I haven't tryed the deck, but are u usaly high on pool? Don't get me wrong I think the idč behind it is cool, but just looks like the deck uses alot of pool.

Both Vigilance and Majesty cost blood. > > 2 Sport Bike > what about raven spy? or mr. winthrop?they doesn't cost pool... Yes. Correct. But if I don´t have a majesty on hand, retainers tend to get killed with ranged strikes around here. More so than Bikes. > > 2 Elder Impersonation > isn't this mostly +1 stealt for 1 blood? wouldn't it be better to ass > another 2 lost in crowds or something... Correct. Lost in crowds could be better. > > 3 Cat´s Guidance > I would try to get a few more in. Mmmm. I will also try. > doesn't this deck run low on pool pretty fast? u got alot of masters > that cost pool and the Eq isn't helping with it's cost....even if u > get madness network and using the advantage it doesn't look like that > alone has what it takes to keep up with what this deck "cost"... The idea is to get out Cailean+big scary gun rather fast. That way people (all people not with alot of stealth that is) stays away. Then put out 1 Malkavian, then Madness Network and 1-2-3-4-5-6 Using the advantage. With Victoria this could lead to 2-7 bloat every turn (even more with Kingdom and HG), which should be enough to fuel Cailean, put out some more Malks, and, in the late game, Jack. > what if someone tryes to remove the network, would u realy have the > intersept u need? This is, of course a problem. I play 2 Info Networks (to get one early), and with a bike (or retainer, if you prefer), you can handle most low-stealth decks. But a dedicated stealther sure does succeed. > I could be wrong since I haven't tryed the deck, but are u usaly high > on pool? With a good draw I get the bloat going after a while. > Don't get me wrong I think the idè behind it is cool, but just looks > like the deck uses alot of pool. It does.

One of my abysmally few entries into the TWD was with a similar concept (pre-grouping rules) http://www.thelasombra.com/decks/twd.htm#memorial They're great fun to play... DaveZ Atom Weaver

Before the introduction of the groups, every deck was group-1/2 (No vampires who are now considered to be group 3 existed prior to the grouping rule, that is). -- LSJ (vte...@white-wolf.com) V:TES Net.Rep for White Wolf, Inc.

Could swap out Evan, Jeremy, Adelaide and milo for Normal, Dollface, Roland and Zebulon.
