Your starting influence is 1. I'd suggest swapping Fred and Angelica for Lawrence and Barton.

I'd suggest focusing on 3's rather than 4's, as Shotgun is so much better than Flask or Hound. Deeds (Hustings and Yan Li's), dudes (Mendoza) and actions (Suns and Stakes) are all excellent too.

Good point about the influence... 1 is a bit low for sure.

I would really like to keep Fred and Angelica in there, though, since I wanted to try Fred with the Attorney (once he is wanted, I can ramp up his influence every turn), and Angelica's ability is so awesome!

Will have to think about it some more. Thank you for your input! :)

Exactly how do you plan to use Angelica's ability?

As for Fred, to my knowledge most Sloane decks try to win within the first three turns. Long-term investments into not losing the game to deedsline seem... counter-intuitive.

Angelica: Having her stay in the townsquare should give me a nice 2 stud (+1 or a decent backup shooter, if Sun in Yer Eyes happens or something like that) in pretty much every combat breaking out, anywhere (except out of town places). And I still have her in the townsquare as well. Havn't played with her, yet, only got DD yesterday, but it sounds pretty good in theory. :)

The way I see it, the best part about Angelica is being able to stay in Carter's all day long without having to move, and also covering the town square after Kidnappin'. I don't think there'll be many shootouts outside of the town square.

Still, I believe the advantages Barton provides (including his 1 influence) outweight Angelica's ability. But that's just my thinking, I'd be interested to know how useful she ends up being for you in practice.

Yeah, I am gonna try her for now and see how it works. I do have 3x Barton in there also, so should be able to get him on the table as well, hopefully.

Either way, I definitely need to rethink my starting posse there... 1 Influence is not enough for sure.

I have rebuilt the deck now and taken your advice to go 3 rather than 4.
