I will be honest, I have no idea how iron glare slipped my mind.

@torrancecircle: I'm running forced march instead of freak drive.

I have no idea why you arent running fortitude prevent. Or psyche. Or grapple. Does your meta nominally forget combat ever exists?
Im not sold on gas powered chainsaws. If there were some way to use talbots chainsaw, this deck would be terrifying. Maybe make benedict giovanni a supporter and add tye.
Or, as mentioned, bundi grappl. Or, j's axe, banshee ironwail, crimson sentinel, argent baton, etc unique melee weapons and possibly even disguising them out with pascek and heidleberging to elihu.

Also, why no tension or fame? Worried about tension hurting you, add fortitude prevent.
Maybe using perpetual care, since late game pascek could hypothetically torp anyone not willing to vote for it.

Ardana is not by any means my fqvorite 11 cap, but shes far from the worste. On par with Gwyndilen, because of better special but less optimal discipline spread (protean sucks. Fortitude, even at inferior, would have aerved better, especially with her special)
She bleeds hard, but shes not useful at all here. Turning her into benedict giovanni or lorrie dunsirn is a better plan. Or, if you want brujah all the way, maxwell and (obviously, just because hes f***¥¥ awesome) count germaine. Paying that much is pretty high, but 11 is out of the question, especially since she cant play 2nd trad. Maxwell can at least become prince then forced march at superior. Jann berger is also an option. Or weeniez.

Im still bafdled by your lack of fortitude prevent. Little fortitude is useful as hell, and not just for forced marching. Armor of vitality stifles animalism nonsense, and is your best bet here, from the looks of things. If you had issue with the assault rifles, maybe rethink your combat. Why flash? Pursuit. Maybe add sideslip. Lets say yiu have a bat. On elihu or pascek. Your opponent has an assault rifle. They go long. You go to close. Now, you could dodge with sideslip or prevent with skin of steel(neither of which you run, you currently suck 4 damage to the face) then pursuit an additional. You still do the same 2 strikes with your big swinger. But now its all in one turn. Decapitate the bastard if you can. Or maybe rip an arm off. Its just more logical to additional and drop the saws in favor of better weapons.

Lastly, there is a player in my playgroup who almost swears that he can talk the table into voting an archon to pass but never can for an alastor. He reminds them they can burn the archon later, then blocks the vote or rushes the voter. But you can always whore off an alastor and a piece of equipment to a crosstable.

If theres one thing that jumps out at me as needing changed here, its yoir combat. Add prevwnt. If your ok with sce always trumping you, thats all whatever. But you can make tablez fall wrong if yoir a combat deck who dies like nothing to Carna and an ivory bow and 2 apportation in hand. Or Anatole with a flamethrower and some swallowex by the night. Hell, both of those decks can probably prevent damage too. Its just embarassing to get rolled by 1 agg when you have fortitude. All bad.

I dont think yoir blood management is efficient enough to justify freak drive. Its not like pascek can rumble, anbushscks, your probably going to vote or bleex or rush, forced march, then do one of the two you didnt just do. Elihu can freak drive, but 6 cap needs beads to put a hurting on people.

I forfot this in the above post, but id go + enxhants, remove all 4th trad, and add 1 heart of the city and one intimidation. Bleed for 3, maybe pump with iron glare. What are they gonna do, block you and fight

took the deck out for a spin and was able to get out Jaroslav, Adana, and Tomaine. my thaum/prot deck was my preadator, a sneak and bleed was my prey, and the assault rifle deck across from me. in retrospect, it was an error helping out cross table, as my grandprey recovered and blitzed the shit out of his preadator. Striking with weapons doesn't do shit versus blood rage.

@reverendrevolver: the typos make your posts difficult to interpret. though i do see your point about utilizing the fortitude. i'll probably play another game with the deck as it is and make tweaks from there.

Keep us updated! Blood Rage! AAAAAAAUUUUGGHHHH!!!
