Deck Comments:
This deck shows that the Assamites can rule in combat. Use the maneuvers to
stay at long range and blast away with Blood Sweats and then try to burn the
vampire with the Taste of Deaths. Refill with the Taste of Vitaes. Combat
should roll very easily and be very deadly. Now how to get into combat. This
is where things get fun. Use the Covenants of Bloods to directly attack any
Camarilla vampires and then use the Contracts on Independent or Sabbat
vampires. These cards should reek havoc on the table. Use the Barrens,
Dreams of the Sphinx, and the Fragment of the Book of Nod to quickly go
through your deck to set your hand up. But one of the other key cards in the
deck is the use of the Succubus club. Use this card to make killer deals.
Sell your services in combat to other players for pool, protection, votes,
or anything else. Become a combat whore! Let players pay you off for not
rushing their vampires for a turn or two. Above all else, be creative.
Continue to talk and try to make deals during the entire game. Matter of
fact, start trying to make deals even before the Succubus Club comes out.
You should be able to gain several pool and have a ton of fun with the Club.
If you use this deck, please email me details of your bargains! If they are
good, I will include them in the next newsletter.
