Mattias - Anu Diptinatpa Arms Dealers + Info

In the Cheat the Fates: Atlanta Tournament
Stone Mountain, Georgia
April 9, 2011

There was a deck in the final table, that used (Mattias - Anu Diptinatpa Arms Dealers).
If anyone as any info on this deck i would gladly ask for some more information Please. Tyvm!

"Mattias" is the player's name. He used Anu + some little Brujah to recruit Arms Dealers, then bleed with the Arms Dealers (giving them +bleed from Anu).

Mattias posts here. I am sure he will be along shortly. It is a good deck and he has done a good job terrorizing our playgroup with it on occasion.

I'd be happy to answer any questions you have.
I've made a lot of slight variations of the deck. this is the decklist of the version I used a few months later at the NAC 2011, probably didn't change much.

It's an aggressive yet risky deck, as the only poolgain comes from superior Govern. but the vampires are cheap and the allies are free.
I can't play it in the Atlanta playgroup anymore because everyone knows what to expect. but against outsiders it gives quite a shock.

Hi, I like the concept a lot!

One question though: Are two brujahs enough to recruit enough Arms Dealers?

usually enough. some Arms Dealers get discarded early on just to fuel Emergency Rations. If I somehow get handjammed on Arms Dealers, the Dealers that are already in play can take their built-in action to replace them with weapons. sometimes I swap a few out of the deck for no-requirement allies like Mylan Horseed or whatever.
