Von Unaussprechlichen Kulten - Beta Rules First Play

[styx]

Here is a funny list I came up with for VUK.

Rouge Threshold Character: Indoctrinator, Hostage Taker
Invisibility Suit
Ephod (allows you to have 3 ghosts)

Then take something like this:
Poltergeist x2
Cultist x2 with Rifles


The RTC stays out of the fight, put the ghost grave markers somewhere to prevent the other team from completing a mission. Sit back, fire the two Rifles each turn. Then when they get close you can swap to the Poltergeists.

Then after each game roll Hostage Taker to capture someone, then Indoctrinate them. If the Cultists due you replace them…build up the cult each game. Add another Ghost of your choice ASAP.

The Character never gets killed if he never does anything, survives every game. Same for the Ghosts unless someone plays Threshold and brings a Cross or can get to the graves for 2 turns. The Cultists are disposable.

An alternate is to take the Collar of Subjugation and take a Werewolf instead of the Ephod. Take no skills. Add 3 Cultists and 1 Rifle or shotgun. Or if you want to free up more points you take a Formless thing to have 5 extra points to play around with.

That actually sounds like a fun list...as long as I don't have to play against it!

I taught English for several years, so it's a habit I'm stuck with I think.

I am totally with you, Obsidian! I find bad grammar something of a bugbear too.

I ran into Uncle Mike on the weekend and might be able to chat with him tomorrow at my local shop.  If I learn anything about VUK that I can share I'll post it up here.
