This deck aims to utilize Tommy Muldoon's special ability as much as possible. It contains many assets who can be defeated from damage or horror: Cherished Keepsake, Bandolier, Guard Dog, Tetsuo Mori, Venturer, Something Worth Fighting For and True Grit.

This deck contains two copies of Prepared for the Worst, as well as 5 firearm weapons: two copies of .45 Automatic, two copies of .45 Thompson and Tommy's beloved Becky. Hopefully, you will get one of these cards in your opening hand or after you mulligan. Don't start adventuring without a weapon. The world is crazy out there.

Regarding skills and events, this deck contains two copies of each of the following core set classics: Emergency Cache, Lucky!, Guts, Overpower, Unexpected Courage and Vicious Blow. Recommended for every who has access to cards.

This deck contains Fight or Flight because according to the rules, the amount of horror on "you" includes the amount of horror on your assets. Therefore, Tommy can easily gain +1 until the end of the round if Cherished Keepsake, Tetsuo Mori, Venturer or True Grit have 1 horror on them.

Similarly, this deck contains two copies of Steadfast. Since Tommy puts all of his damage and horror on his assets, Tommy almost always has 10 or more total remaining health and sanity. Gaining +3 or is incredible!

Will to Survive is expensive, but Tommy's special ability grants him a constant resources supply. Hilariously, Tommy can use Will to Survive to successfully investigate a room with shroud 2 or 3.

In the specific campaign I'm currently playing, Tommy's random basic weakness is Indebted. This weakness is easy to overcome, because, as I said, Tommy's special ability grants him a constant resources supply.

P.S.

According to .45 Thompson's flavor text, it is a "fully automatic Thompson submachine gun". So... Tommy has two Tommy Guns!

As I know, Fight or Flight only counts horror on your investigator card; please check You/Your (expanded) rule. In this case, "you" is the investigator who is currently interacting with the card, investigator card only.

You/Your rule states: "When an ability refers to 'you' in response to taking damage or being dealt damage, it also includes any assets you control". So, I thought that "the amount of horror on you" includes "any horror on your assets".

However, if Fight or Flight only counts horror on Tommy's investigator card, then the card is pointless for Tommy, and should be replaced with an additional Cherished Keepsake.

Thank you for your comment!
