Greetings mates, i put this post in priciple to help me in many
questions but i like that this forum will be a basic reference to
anyone that play with Tremere decks, ( all welcome , of course) .
Now with the gargolyes in (fly) the Tremere have "lots?" of news
strategies , whichs it can give us too new decks based in the
Pot/Fortitude/Auspex, etc...
I like that all of u ( if u wanna) post here if u like the idea of
found here a Tremere Chantry as discussion forum ( i it exist , plz
say me ;-) ),
- comment news decks.
- Vissceratic will help us or only confuse us?
- Is the deck Gargolyes/Tremere playabled in a Tournament?

Something not WHOLLY dissimilar to what you want is provided by Xian
in his Tremere newsletters. And i'll pass your message on to John
Keech who is shaping up to be our local Tremere-loving, erm, fellow.
He is very upset by the way a lot of the British players diss, mock
and scorn the Tremere, and he aims to Prove Us Wrong by Example. Me,
i'm kinda with matthew green on this one, but perhaps a little less
harsh .... and i DO play Tremere decks from time to time. Gonna play
one tonight, as it happens, and i'll pass it on to Xian's NL with Ben
Swainbanky type comments when i have done.

Well, I'm not sure if this is what you are looking for, but I write a
(theoretically) monthly Tremere Clan Newsletter. After I have a
chance to analyze some new stuff in Bloodlines, my next issue will be
coming out. I believe there is also someone writing a Gargoyle
Newsletter, but I can't remember for certain (and I just can't be
bothered to Google it up). I think it's Norm, maybe? Shoot. (Okay,
I *did* just check, and rock on, I was right.) Go Norm!
I archive my newsletters at
http://www.waste.org/~xian/geek/jyhad/news/ , and you can find lots of
information at www.thelasombra.com.
That being said, feel free to talk about any- (and every-) thing
Tremere/Gargoyle that you like. If you want to post stuff on the
newsgroup, go for it. If you want to send me something for inclusion
in the newsletter, please do so.

Well, I don't know about lots of new strategies, but there are new
options within pre-existing archetypes. (I'd say that a new strategy
is something like the Harbingers library destruction.) That being
said, the Gargoyles can add some punch, as it were, to
Tremere/!Tremere decks that use POT or FOR (though not so much to the
Dawn Op/Weather Control deck) in combat, and Visciktera (or whatever)
has some nifty effects for THA as well. If you're not using the
Gargoyles as a solo clan, they definitely have a lot to offer the
(!)Tremere.
I think Clan Impersonation is going to be an interesting addition to
any deck with a high number of Gargoyles. Sanguine Instruction is
also a good all-around card, it's looking like. (Especially when
combined with CI.)

Well, like I said, check my website or The Lasombra's, let us know if
that is or is not what you mean.

Nah, it's not that confusing. Mmmm...Armor of Terra.
> - Is the deck Gargolyes/Tremere playabled in a Tournament?
Well, I obviously don't know about the Gargoyles yet, but the Tremere
definitely are. I think that there have been 4 Tremere decks that
have won tournaments since August or so? The Tremere *can* win, one
just has to know what to do with them. (Repeat after me: the Tremere
are not just Thaumaturgy combat machines.)

Dear Mr. Beg,
I post the Official Gargoyles Newsletter, and I love your comments and I
will attempt to answer most of them in this months newsletter. Although you
will have to wait until later in this month to receive it, because I haven't
even gotten a chance to play with them yet. I love your ideas and if you
have any content you would like posted I would be happy to include it in my
newsletter.
Comments Welcome,

You are in fact Cardano's bitch, Xian.

Visceratika seems quite impressive in my opinion, both in itself and
as a supplement to the (!)Tremere. The abilities are really quite
powerful in themselves (though I'll avoid posting specific text, as I
traded nearly all of my vsk away for obe and dai), and the
supplemental tha abilities are decent as well. For example, Collapse
the Arches' "tha: Strike: 2R, with an optional press" is certainly
usable on its own.
As a random aside, Nose of the Hound is also looks very nice for the
(!)Tremere. They seem to have done quite well with Bloodlines.

Hope you're enjoying it. <grin>

I think that you should have Collapse the Arches be card of the month.
its common, costs no blood, and gives those tremere something to get
presses with (and for our gargoyle friends, that may, or may not be
included, is a nasty 4R damage!).
Oh, and the vampire of the month, although not a Tremere, should be
Fidius the Shrunken Beast. Great cheaper guy for your Tremere For/Tha
decks.
That is all.

Thanks, I will keep that in mind, but if you really want to submit
something. I recommend you email me privately.

The combination of Visceratika and Flight are quite unplesant. Flight
produces, from what I've seen so far, some manuver and press options as well
as some good close range strikes, like one, which if landed prevents
additionals. Visceratika provides some nice long range strikes as well as
S:CE and other things.

Wow. My name sounds even sillier as an adjective. But I am flattered.
Though, I should probaly wait and see what kinds of comments those
are...
With the Gargoyles, one of the first things I want to try is a
bruise-bleed with weenie Dominate types like Mustapha and Jing Wei to
do the bleeding, and who tap their big stone buddies to do the
bruising when they get blocked. With those groovy Tha powers on the
Visc cards it should be possible to build card-efficent 5 discipline
(6 with flight?... hmmmm..) decks.
But more experimentation will have to wait until I get more Bloodlines
cards. In the meantime, I'm working on a !Tremere elders deck that
includes Animalism. The name: Gore, Rat Tricks.

Good to see you posting here, btw.

Yes, this is all quite true. I can't help it.
ani aus cel DOM FOR THA, Prince
What's not to like? Sure, he could have Potence, but that's about it.
You can even stick him in an ani/cel/tha deck. Woo. Terror Frenzy,
Flash, Theft, Blur...yum yum yum.

Hehehe. I thought my trading seemed pretty appropriate down in
Madison. Rehlow got the funky demon from me, you got random Daimanon
stuff, and I think Cameron got stuff that he wanted from me too. Oh
yeah, and Dave got that Draught of the Soul. Very fitting.

Except for that whole part about blocking a (D) action, and only being
usable at long range. Yes, it's good, but a little limited. Though
this and Nose of the Hound and some of the other stuff I've seen makes
me want to start playing intercept-y Tremere again.
> As a random aside, Nose of the Hound is also looks very nice for the

Yes. So very very good. Auspex stealth rush. With a maneuver or a
press. Sweet.
[Armor of Terra]
> Hope you're enjoying it. <grin>
Oh, definitely. Well, I need more than one, but I think I'm going to
go with the opposite tactic I had at the pre-release, and shoot for
DOM/FOR/THA/VIS, with some clantoys thrown in. (Soul of the Earth?)
I still need Stone Dog and Rock Cat, though. Wait, maybe I have Stone
Dog. Can't remember. They just sound cool.
So far, most of the Gargoyles seem to be geared towards FOR/pot rather
than POT/for. Which is fine. Oh, and I need that +2 intercept
thinger. Man, that sounds cool...Defender of the Haven, that's it.
So yeah, any of you Madison types want to trade, let me know.
xian(at)waste.org. Always willing to work deals. Need to actually
get my Bloodlines in, but hopefully they'll be arriving soon.
Looking forward to playing again...

Auspex stealth Ambush (target must be tapped).
With a maneuver (no press option).

Same difference. :)

Whoops. Going from memory. Was thinking of...Skin of the Chameleon.
So many good new cards. Thanks! :)

Hi again mates , as i can see the Chantry work. thanks top evereyone
for yourscommentary. until the date, i don´t have plyay with the
gargolyes cause in my country ( spain) the stuff don´t arrive until
this week. But i see here that mate Temere think abouta deck of
weenies with Dom & the rockies gargolyes as bofyguard.
well , y idea is diferent in all. I think that a tremere /!tremere
deck with the gargolyes can provide best stuff that the weenies
bleeding alots.
I need more time but my idea is Aus-Fort, Dom & Thau with actions of
pulse , dawn operations ect...
well i will visit the newsettler when my others obligations let me.
MOS REGARDS
