This is my first try in a solo deck with Jenny Barnes. I try to maximize her ability, so, with Hyperawareness and Physical Training you can use resources to boost any of your stats before an skill test.

Also, I find that Fire Axe is a beast with her. You'll never be worried to spend all resources, as you'll recover them easily next round.

All the 2 icons skills except Overpower, as you have a lot of weapons to manage combat. With Burglary you can get some resources if you really need them.

You should mulligan for Leo de Luca in the first hand, for solo playing I think he really is the best ally of the game (along with Milan Christopher and maybe Peter Sylvestre).

I have not tested the deck yet, I'm sure I'll find some things to change, but I think that it could be a quite powerful solo deck.

I like this idea... maybe, one Double or Nothing for low difficulty skill tests could be great, too.

Good point. I tend to disregard Double or Nothing as I find it a little counterproductive, but with Jenny you can get really crazy stat values, so it might be an interesting card to test.

Is there a particular reason you go for Hyperawareness + Physical Training rather than Hard Knocks + Arcane Studies? The latter gets you full coverage of your stats while using fewer OOF slots.

No, there is no reason really. Just I didn't realize that this also cover all stats. I kept the Hyperawareness + Physical Training in mind because is the only combination you could to cover all stats with the core investigators (Roland Banks could play both of them).

Your suggested idea is clearly better than mine.

I suspect even with Jenny's double resource/turn ability, it might not be able to keep up with 3 +1 stat per resource asset, Leo's initial cost, and Fire Axe fodder.

Well, that's why Burglary is there. In locations with a low threshold, it should be easy to investigate and get 3 extra resources. If you already have Leo in play you have an extra action, so it shouldn't be a problem spending an action to get 3 resources.

Anyway, as I said in the deck description, this is not tested already, maybe the deck it is not as good as it seems to me.

I like it! I agree that you probably won't have the money to pay for everything, but the good news is you won't be able to draw everything either. You'll never be stuck without resources, or with at least one good resource-sink card.

Main suggestion I'd make is to toss in a couple copies of Elusive. Searching for Izzie is unbelievably annoying, and Elusive is the only real counter I've found for it yet.

Jan 25, 2017 wehehe · 162

Totally agree. I didn't play well Elusive, I used only to move to a connected location. Being able to move to any makes it a great card.

Pickpocketing are there because I had some empty spaces, I'll switch them for Elusive.

I still have to test the deck. I hope I'll have the time today...
