Servius does have OBT and CHI, both good combat/action modifier disciplines. Shroud of Absence, Arms of the Abyss, Entombment, Sensory Deprivation, Occlusion and Mayaparisatya all come to mind. Too bad Servius doesn't have OBF for SbtN to work better....

How about Information Network?

Sense the Savage Way + Cats/Obedience is good. Combat avoidance can help you pick your combats and the extra untaps are good to use those deflections, etc.

Be careful when you fight the monsters, lest you become one.

Obedience, why that would be a Swedish thing... :P

Actually I was kinda so focused on putting together at least passable combat package for Annis that I so tally forgot about it. Block & still remain intact and untapped indeed sounds sweet and I'll definately have to try it out sooner or later methinks.

Then again I think I'd rather have combat module that everyone in the deck can use. Would be kinda bad to repleace third of the combat cards with Obediences only to find out that Annis couldn't rush even that effectively half of the time as the hand was jamed with non-combat cards...

Actually the biggest problem with combat seemed to be prevention. And in that vein Information Network (yet another master) doesn't sound as enticing as Guardian Angel which also prevents.


Good stuff guys.
Thanks for the insight!

I was thinking to the same combo (Enkil Cog + Using the Advantage). My version uses crypt 2-3, with star cailean for defensive capabilities, and victoria for poolgain. villein-lilit-dominate to recover pool quickly. Eternal Vigilance to untap if needed. Sincerely I'm still not sure of the vote module. The entire deck is still at concept stage, and I'm still searching for the right way tpo make a VP with it. I know the deck can generate a considerable amount of pool, but what to do with it?

You can make scary enough combat module with just 27 cards easily, you just need to focus on the cards that matter and leave the situational and 'win more' cards to less. Here is an example. If you change your current combat + swalloweds to these your combat will be strong enough to scare people, and all of your guys can use it to its full effect. I left crows out since your main fighter, Annis, has only basic animalism, and swalloweds out since your other main guy, Servius, has only basic obfuscate.

6x Immortal Grapple
4x Mighty Grapple
4x Slam
5x Taste of Vitae
8x Torn Signpost
