Another variant of a Malk/!Malk S&B deck using Computer Hacking, but
using Celerity to try to protect a little better the vampires.
Usually this crypt is used in Malk/Disguised Weapon decks.

Interesting, but your bleed modifiers are few and far between. Hack +
J.S. Simmons will make it 3 bleed, assuming you have J.S. out. Since
you have all that AUS, I'd think about a couple of Pulse of the
Canaille. Otherwise, it's kinda cute, and considering that all your
vamps are relatively small, it just might work pretty well.

I would consider replacing the 3rd copy of the General and/or the 3rd
copy of the Colonel with Doug Netchurch, Dolphin Black, and/or
Antoinette, She Who Watches. It's good to have a *little* variety in
your crypt, especially with low avg vamp size, otherwise you're liable
to end up with only 2 unique vamps in your opening crypt draw, and
considering that can cost you a max of 10 pool, you'll be paying to
see, possibly a few times.

Antoinette looks to be especially good, considering she has essentially
the same discipline spread as the Colonel, and is also a Primogen.
Also Roger Farnsworth wouldn't be completely terrible, and might allow
you to splash some Corporal Resevoirs or a Weeping Stone. Also, all of
these vamps other than Antoinette have sup OBF, so if you do a little
replacing, you may be able to cut down on the obf masters in the deck.

As all your vamps have cel at best, wouldn't Riposte be a better idea
than Preternatural Evasion, since it has S:CE at inf? Otherwise you
could just use Dodge or Behind You!...

The problem with Repost is that it's not usable on the first round of
combat.
Since most vampires in the crypt have basic celerity they can dodge
with PEvasion. With the master discipline they have access to S:CE.
This is more reliable than just dodge (Dodge or Behind You) since your
opponent can play additional strikes or just press...

Thanks.

Pulse is too expensive for these small caps and it's like honey to
attract combat decks... i like to keep some low profile!
..44? Don't know... maybe it's an option.
Like you said, she doesn't have celerity and with +1 bleed she would be
the first target to be rushed to death!

Obviously the tune depends on the game environment. In my results
better the S:CE despite there are some rush decks around.
