Mark's comments:
The same basic combat monster I've been running with a few new twists.
Archon and Alastor votes for permanent rush worked well, same with the
weapons,
either with the Alastor or without. Nightmare upon nightmare was put in as
a 'screw'
vs breeder decks but was never an issue and may be replaced. The lone
telepathic
misdirection is for that third point of unexpected intercept of that
surprise bounce of
a big bleed, but is rarely of much use and could probably become another
rush or
Second. The standing votes the crypt provides, and Nikolaus's special to
get them
out quicker and cheaper are two of the most important elements of the deck.
If nothing
else, the combat module allows one to make one's presence felt at a table.
