Talbot's Deadly Legacy

Have you noted, that if minion with Talbot's Saw is in torpor, nobody takes damage? So, minion who you have moved chainsaw goes to torpor and others are safe.

Now if you add Fame to the mix...

Actually you could try adding a Graverob Angle.
Spirit Marionette, Heidelberg the blood off and the chainsaw on, do some other bits and pieces in your turn... then when your prey uses the chainsaw to drop themselves into torpor... you Graverob them in your turn (or anyone else who might go down to some kind of Chainsaw combat)

I actually have the Gravrobs in there. They have been a part of the plan from point one. Thanks anyways!

@Reyda: Now there's something... I'll just need to check where I can spare the master slots.

Oh 2 Graverobs isn't a "Plan" its just some opportunism. I'm thinking of 4+ at least. You want to Graverob the guy with the Chainsaw and rush another one down if you can, marionette another prey minion and then move the chainsaw back to your prey (lost 1 vampire completely, maybe another one in torpor if you don't have another Graverob).

You don't want to graverob a famous vamp. But Tension...

I tried to trim down the numbers a little but there are a lot of modules in your deck and I didn't really want to completely throw out all of them.

I would develope this idea around tremere antitribu, which can summon the chainsaw, thanks to magic of the smith and they can learn obeah thanks to infernal pact. Primary candidates Ian Forestal and Ladislas Toth to be incorporated.

Sorry for bumping this thread, but I'm rather curious as how would such a deck look like...also, I'd be tempted to put in Muaziz, since she can eat those torpored vamps and get Chainsaw back, and has for, should you want Freak Drives in your deck. Also, by having Tremeres, you could get Ponticulus out and keep Chainsaw if there are no targets...

What I'm trying to say - help me build a deck based on either/or Tremeres/!Tremeres and Blanche Hill, who i have several copies of but have never used her. All of my ideas when put to paper end up being unfocused mess of 110 cards.
