Description
Meet the Wraithrustlers, a faction from the Excellent Movies, Dudes! expansion. This medium-complexity faction excels at tracking down and eliminating play-on-base actions, with a particular focus on those labeled as Wraiths. By taking down these actions, the Wraithrustlers can reap significant benefits. They are joined in this set by three other factions: Action Heroes, Backtimers, and Extramorphs.
Cards Overview
The Wraithrustlers faction is composed of 10 minions and 10 actions, offering a balanced mix of gameplay options. Their minions boast a total base power of 30, averaging 3 power per minion.
Delving into their actions, the Wraithrustlers have a single play-on-minion action, the Unlicensed Nuclear Accelerator, which also has the ability to directly increase a minion's power. For play-on-base actions, they offer a range of options including the Ancient Sumerian God, two instances of Demon Dogs, Ectoplasm One, two Librarian Haunt cards, and Slimy. Rounding out their action selection are two standard actions: Resurgence and The Tools and the Talent.
1x Ancient Sumerian God - Wraith - Play on a base. Talent: Store an action from your discard pile that can be played on a base under this card. Ongoing: This base's breakpoint is increased by 3. When this card leaves play, for each base you may play one of the actions stored under this card as an extra action there.
2x Demon Dogs - Wraith - Play on a base. You may store a minion of power 3 or less from your hand or discard pile under this card. Ongoing: This base’s breakpoint is increased by 3. After this card is destroyed, you may play a minion stored under it as an extra minion.
