    Nice! So far all my decks that have this card seem to indulge in the habit of having Mars as one of the houses.

    18 decks and my 4rth deck had "The common cold" for Dis, in a deck without any Mars so it works pretty well.

    I'm already adding the house rule that feeding a cat to anything results in an automatic loss.
     
    That is so not what H.P. Lovecraft would have wanted.

    Yeah...that's not really a useful thing to do. "Let me put this card out in front of me that says which house I picked." It's just the name they gave the card so that's what I refer to them as. 😐 
    That's a good question. I never got any of the pins, but I would looooooove to get them. No idea! I'm going to go to an event this Saturday that's supposed to have a prize wall, so I might have a chance to check.

    "This option has been a widely requested feature"
    Yeah, like it was expected from the beginning, as a core concept of the game
    "and I’m happy to provide it to you"
    ... after my dear Editor which I have a contract with, lashed at me for the poor performance of my game and the avalanche of bad reviews.
     
    "Although many groups will undoubtedly prefer the game’s original rules, this variant is ideal for groups that want a team-oriented experience. It works great with new players, families, or just about anyone who likes cooperative games. "
    Translated by " you, ignorants, don't understand the superiority of my original design, here take that hasty build rules fix else I might lose my contract with this editor.
     
    This will at best made people who regret having bought this not regret it so much anymore. I hardly see how this will make sales after the failure this game made. When most board game reviewers on youtube took the time to bash this game, it means it has serious issues anyway. The market is filled to the brim with better ones.

    This game is basically a race to get 3 keys. so don't forget to reap. Some people focus so much on fighting and killing your opponent's creatures that they don't realise they could win by just farming aember. (Seen that happen last tournament)

    When a card uses its own name in an ability, it means "this card", not any other cards you may have with the same name. In this case, I wish they hadn't adopted this convention (which started with Magic), but had just gone with "this card" or "this creature" instead.

    You don't hear a lot about Mimicry, but it can really be a game changer.  Not sure its under-rated, just not heavily discussed.

    First off, be very careful with your Autocannon. It hurts both your stuff and your opponent's so you want to either discard it or hold it until most of your weak stuff is played or dead. The same general advice goes for Poison Wave, but since it's in Shadows, you can often declare House Shadows, drop a Poison Wave to weaken the board and then follow up with your horde.
    Next, you have a very strong stealing theme. You want to take advantage of the Elusive trait on most of your Shadows creatures to avoid initiating combat (except for your Umbras; they can initiate fights). Instead, reap or use Action abilities to steal the opponent's Æmber.
    Your Dis is used to disrupt the opponent and make their board control hit these creatures for fear of them strangling your opponent. If you can get a turn where you're reaping with 4 Dis creatures, they will be sad as either cards are flying out of their hand, you are bouncing a creature or artifact they need, or you're threatening to make a key from the Æmber you get from a destroyed Dust Imp. If you can also land your Lash of Broken Dreams, you can often get to a point where you steal enough to prevent some key forging and use the Lash to make it so when they do forge it costs 9. 
    Your Brobnar are there to take out threats. You probably won't get much use out of Follow the Leader, but when you do, it can finish off a board that you've weakened in other ways. 
    This deck has a decent mix of stealing, fighting, and disruption. Once you get a few games under your belt with it, it should be fun.
