This is the first in my "Standard Deck" series, where I create highly effective taboo-compliant decks for specific investigators, with a focus on the most recent Dream Eater investigators first. These decks are designed for 2 Players with Standard difficulty in mind and assume you have a current card pool, but include modifications for 3-4 players. Each deck will highlight the investigator's strengths, including both instructions on how to play the investigator and how to pilot the deck, with the aim of teaching you how they work.
Want to try the new Dream-Eater investigators, but are at a loss and don't know where to start?

Have an Arkham event coming up and you need to bring a couple of decks, but don't have the time or brain space to build them all?
Try one of my Standard Decks! You can create quick standalone builds by following the Standalone recommendations at the end of each deck guide.
Imagine these as pre-fabricated Arkham Horror LCG decks that you can crack open and start playing with.
THE INVESTIGATOR
Tony Morgan
Role: Monster Killer
Pair With: Clue-Getter
Strengths: Combat, Action Economy
Weaknesses: Willpower, Sanity
Modus Operandi: 5 makes Tony a born monster-killer, with some ability to investigate at 3 . While it is important to guard his fragile sanity, his action economy allows him to move through scenarios at a very high tempo, meaning he will see fewer cards from the encounter deck. While he likely won't pass many treacheries, use cards like Steadfast, Unexpected Courage, and Tennessee Sour Mash to prevent him from taking too much horror. Cards like On the Hunt help by ensuring Tony draw enemies instead of Rotting Remains. If, however, you are still nervous, feel free to include a Liquid Courage--but be warned, due to Tony's 2 , it is not easy to pull off. Tony will either need help or be forced to use his precious icons. If you do include it, one copy should suffice and you can replace a copy of Swift Reflexes.
However, later you will want to make room for a Well-Maintained Tennessee Sour Mash.
Regardless, in a worst case situation in which you end a scenario with mental trauma, you can always pick up Adaptable or later, Versatile, and add in Smoking Pipes and Liquid Courages.
Investigator Signature Asset: Tony's .38 Long Colt
The Tony's .38 Long Colt's primary purpose is to recharge Tony's Bounties. But this only happens when Tony uses it to kill a monster, so you need to conserve the precious 3 ammo that comes with it.
Ideally Tony should have 2 weapons in hand (and almost NEVER two Tony's .38 Long Colt!)--a Tony's .38 Long Colt and any other weapon, such as Knuckleduster, Switchblade, or .41 Derringer. Use this other weapon to soften up Tony's targets before delivering the killing blow with Tony's .38 Long Colt. This is how he recharges his Bounties!
IMPORTANT: whenever possible, always deliver the killing blow to enemies with a Bounty on them using Tony's .38 Long Colt! He has 5 , so punch them if you must!
Investigator Signature Asset: Bounty Contracts
Tony uses his bounties to increase his cash and earn him extra actions. But be careful! He only has a limited number of bounties and they can disappear fast. Managing Tony's bounties is key to his success.
Managing Bounties
As a general guideline, you want to place a lot of bounties early, then dole them out one at a time later on. First monster to appear that you need to kill--put 3 Bounties on it. It's an easy kill and gets Tony resources early. After that, only assign 1 bounty to monsters you plan to kill. The true power of the bounties is not the resources--it's the free actions. You will only be able to use Tony's ability once each round, so try to avoid killing two monsters with bounties on them in the same turn. There is one exception: bosses and VP enemies. If you know you're going to defeat them, add 2-3 bounties if you can. Your Tony's .38 Long Colts get +1 for each Bounty on his target, so this is a good way to beef up his attack, and if killing the monster doesn't end the scenario, it's also a pretty good payday.
Investigator Signature Weakness: Tony's Quarry
Aside from the one doom it brings, Tony has one of the mildest signature weaknesses in the game, Tony's Quarry. It even comes with a Bounty on it, meaning it saves Tony an action to deal with it! However, most of the time you can just leave it be. Once the agenda flips over and doom is removed from play, it poses absolutely no threat whatsoever--and as long as it's on the table, it can't get reshuffled back into your deck!
THE DECK
Premise: Maximize Action Efficiency using Tony's Bounties by keeping his Tony's .38 Long Colt's full of ammo. This enables him to continuously recharge his Bounties, which gives him continuous bonus actions.
DECK PILOTING INSTRUCTIONS:
Mulligan and Opening Hand
You want your opening hand to consist of (in this order):
(1) Leo De Luca
(2) a Tony's .38 Long Colt or Prepared for the Worst
(3) a Knuckleduster or .41 Derringer or Prepared for the Worst
(4) Emergency Cache
(5) and Lucky Cigarette Case.
Why this order? Because getting Leo De Luca out early means you have the most number of actions in the scenario. Tony is likely to see a weapon soon, and can punch monsters without one.
How to Use the Cards in this Deck
Tony's .38 Long Colt and Other Weapons
As mentioned above, you want Leo De Luca out early to maximize your actions. You also want to get a Tony's .38 Long Colt as early as possible so you can get as many Bounty Contracts as possible. Use Prepared for the Worst to find your Tony's .38 Long Colts. Use the .41 Derringers and Knuckledusters for your offhand weapons to preserve your Long Colt ammo.
Other ways to make your Tony's .38 Long Colt ammo go farther are (a) Sleight of Hand, which can be wickedly effective against an high fight enemy with 2-3 Bounties on it; and (b) Contraband to double the ammo on a Tony's .38 Long Colt that hasn't been Sleighted into play.
OTHER CARDS
-
Lucky Cigarette Case is great in Tony. Due to his high and +2 boosts from .41 Derringer and later the Switchblade, he will succeed by two very often. This provides great action efficiency since he shouldn't have to spend actions drawing cards.
-
Tennessee Sour Mash is a way of banking +2 for when Tony really needs it. The +3 Fight action once it's empty is also decent.
-
Emergency Cache is included for an economy boost, especially in the beginning of a scenario before Tony has collected all any Bounties. But fear not, by the end of the scenario, Tony will be swimming in cash.
-
On the Hunt, as mentioned above, is used to ensure Tony is pulling enemies from the encounter deck and not Rotting Remains, while also getting the most out of his Bounties,
-
Swift Reflexes is a great card. Best way to employ it is this: if you have a Seeker/Cluever that needs to go first, but they are engaged with an enemy, use your Swift Reflexes to intervene and engage that enemy, leaving your Seeker/Cluever free to go about their business. This card literally turns Resources into Actions.
-
Overpower has three typical uses: to boost Knuckleduster, boost bare-fisted Fight actions, and to boost Tony's .38 Long Colt, especially if the target has only 1 Bounty.
-
Steadfast and Unexpected Courage are highly versatile cards that you can use to protect Tony's sanity, shake free of a Frozen in Fear, or supplement a Fight action in the same fashion as Overpower. Unexpected Courage is, of course, useful for any test, for any investigator.
-
Vicious Blow seems like a no-brainer, but it has some very strategic uses. You can use it with the Tony's .38 Long Colt to kill 3-health enemies. You can also use it with Tennessee Sour Mash's Discard ability to turn that +3 1-Damage Fight action into +4 and 2 Damage--make it really count!
Adjustments for 3-4 Player
Depending on the campaign or if you play 3-4 players, you may want to sub in a .45 Thompson in place of a Tennessee Sour Mash.
ALTERNATIVE CARDS
If you are having to build multiple decks from the same cardpool or you want to make some adjustments to the deck to accommodate more investigation, take a look below at some alternative cards. They are separated by function (Combat / Investigation/ Horror Prevention/Healing), then by class (Guardian/Rogue), and listed in order of effectiveness.
IMPORTANT: Tony has a limit of 10 Guardian skills/events! This deck has 8 already, with 2 slots for Extra Ammunition x2. So if you decide to insert more Guardian cards, you will have to take some out. The easiest Guardian card to cut is Vicious Blow x2.
Combat
- .45 Thompson: If Tony is going to be a dedicated monster killer, he may want to pack some more stopping power. Especially if you know you're going up against a beefy boss. It comes with 5 ammo, which is great news for Contraband! The two big downsides is the sheer cost (6!) and it occupies both hands. Unfortunately, this is not a card you can Sleight of Hand, if you're using taboo rules.
Investigation/Clues
GUARDIAN CARDS
-
Scene of the Crime: This is a great way for fighters to grab easily 2 clues. However, it requires you to start at a location with a monster and clues, so pairing it with On the Hunt is a nice combo.
-
Evidence!: Tony is killing monsters anyway, so why not pick up an extra clue on the way?
-
Interrogate: This one is a little more situational, but if you know you're playing in a campaign with Humanoids, like The Circle Undone, it can be an easy way to grab clues.
ROGUE CARDS
- Intel Report: Tony can end up with piles of cash, so he can make good use of expensive Favor cards. This allows him to suck up clues (for a price), even at adjacent locations. As long as he has the cash, paying 6 resources to grab 2 clues from up to two locations away is an incredible action-saver. Resources aren't points--so spend them! Worst case scenario, this has , which can help him investigate anyway.
Horror Prevention/Healing
GUARDIAN CARDS
-
Delay the Inevitable: Getting ready to fight that scary boss that deals 2-3 Horror per hit, but Tony can't take him down in one round? It's time to Delay the Inevitable. This allows him to tank a devastating hit, giving him more time to safely take down a big baddie. In Dunwich, it can literally save Tony's or his fellow investigator's life against Beyond the Veil. Let's just say, Daisy was extremely grateful...twice!
-
Take the Initiative: This card is less circumstantial than it may appear. You use it against treacheries, before any investigators have gone, ensuring you get a solid +3 to or , or whatever skill is being tested.
ROGUE CARDS
-
Liquid Courage: As I mentioned above, this card is a little harder to pull off with Tony's low , but at the very worst, each use will heal a horror and cost you a random card from your hand. Pair it with Tennessee Sour Mash for a nice cocktail and a pretty good chance at succeeding!
-
"You handle this one!": This is another great way to protect Tony's low sanity, but it's a little more circumstantial then you'd think. It's great to pass off a Rotting Remains to your fellow investigator, but...is your fellow investigator going to be able to handle it better? What if you're paired with Finn, or Roland? By all means, take this card, but only do so after you've considered who your fellow investigator is. However, in 3-4 player counts, you can confidently add this. But if you're shucking horror-inducing cards off onto your fellow investigator, also consider adding Liquid Courage, so you can help heal all that horror you've been passing off on others.
NEUTRAL CARDS
- Smoking Pipe: This is another way to manage Tony's horror levels.
UPGRADES
- Extra Ammunition --> replace Emergency Cache: Extra Ammunition literally doubles the amount of ammo on Tony's .38 Long Colt. For 1 xp, that's amazing. These two upgrades will put you at Tony's 10-card Guardian off-class limit.
IMPORTANT: upgrade this in conjunction with Another Day, Another Dollar. Each copy of Another Day, Another Dollar should replace one copy of Emergency Cache, but since Another Day, Another Dollar does not affect your deck size, you want to also upgrade a card that does--such as Extra Ammunition.
-
Another Day, Another Dollar --> as mentioned above, this allows you to eliminate your Emergency Cache. Tony only really needs money at the beginning of the scenario. Once he starts collecting bounties, he has tons of cash to spare.
-
Switchblade --> replace Knuckleduster. Even at the tabooed cost of 3xp, the upgraded Switchblade is very, very good. Cheap, infinite ammo, Fast, and the +2 will help trigger Lucky Cigarette Case, and of course the potential to deal 2 damage. Being able to lean on Switchblade will really help your Tony's .38 Long Colt ammo last.
-
Leo De Luca --> replace Leo De Luca. This may seem like such a small thing, but the small discount in price makes a big difference. It means you can play as your first action without having to also spend an action to gain a resource. It's more action efficiency. It also make it more palatable to sacrifice Leo De Luca to protect your sanity. Especially later in the scenario when Tony is rolling in cash, he can always play another one!
-
Contraband --> replace Contraband. This upgrade not only discounts the heavy price tag to something easier to swallow, it also gives you the option to add 2 ammo instead of doubling it. That can be a life saver when your Tony's .38 Long Colt is either empty or down to 1 bullet.
-
.41 Derringer --> replace .41 Derringer. The upgraded .41 Derringer gives Tony even more actions to work with!
-
Tennessee Sour Mash --> replace Tennessee Sour Mash. This is an expensive upgrade, but it will provide a bigger boost to Tony's . You can also keep it Well-Maintained or top it off with an Emergency Cache to make it stretch longer. Use it's discard ability with a Vicious Blow for an attack at +4 and +2 damage!
-
Well-Maintained --> replace Vicious Blow. The idea here is that you use Well-Maintained on a Tony's .38 Long Colt, then when it's empty, bump it to the discard pile by playing another weapon on top of it. However,I think it is best used to target the upgraded Tennessee Sour Mash for plenty of boosts!
-
Ace in the Hole: This will only increase the obscene number of actions Tony has.
-
The Gold Pocket Watch: Similar to Ace in the Hole, this allows Tony to squeeze more actions in while also helping his teammates.
-
Pay Day: If you still find yourself short on cash, don't be afraid to pick up a Pay Day. Combine this with cards like Ace in the Hole and you can easily pull off an 8-Resource Payday!
-
.45 Thompson: Doing a lot of monster-killing? Being troubled by pesky swarms? Consider picking up the upgraded .45 Thompson. Tony will make quick work of any opposition with this in his hands! And you know what's hilarious? Pumping up the Thompson's ammo to obscene levels using Extra Ammunition + Contraband + double the Contraband with Double, Double. That's only 32 ammo!
-
Double, Double: What can I say, Tony has a lot of juicy events. Extra Ammunition, Contraband, Swift Reflexes, Pay Day, and...Ace in the Hole. Double, Double stays in play, so you can use it once every round! Just thinking about it and the expression on your fellow players' faces when you use and abuse Double, Double round after round makes me cackle like a mad scientist!
-
Momentum: This has Tony written all over it. It allows him to commit a bunch of skill icons to one combat test, then use his momentum to take another swing with a large modifier. Combat tests are one of the few tests you are likely to perform as consecutive, back-to-back actions.
-
Versatile: Once Versatile becomes available, you can also add Venturer and Charisma, or Bandolier so he can also carry a .45 Thompson. ADDENDUM: Generally adding more cards to your deck is a bad thing--it makes it less likely you will see your best cards, which are mostly limited to 2x copies. However, you can mitigate much of this by also including cards that come with cards draw, like the Neutral Skills. I would recommend considering Hallowed Mirror, which gives you 3 copies of the best horror/damage healing cards in the game (Soothing Melody), along with 3x Easy Mark. Easy Mark comes with innate card draw and more resource generation.
-
Haste: This is a must-have upgrade in a Switchblade Tony that gives him up to 5 actions in a single round--and that's not even counting Leo De Luca! The only problem is it asks something particular of your investigator--what action do you want to perform twice in a row, in a given round? Well if you're Tony Morgan, that action is Fight! Combined it with an upgraded .41 Derringer for a chance at even MORE actions. I would recommend 100% (10 out of 10).

Nov 28, 2019Greetings. How about You handle this one against those treacheries to protect low Willpower and sanity?. |
Nov 28, 2019I added an Alternative Cards section, if you're looking to adjust the deck a little.
|
Nov 28, 2019I've built an event based deck for tony, using Switchblade 2 + Reliable as main weapon. Combining Crystallizer of Dreams and those 2-6 ressource events with double symbols also works pretty well. Buy 2 clues of another location with Intel Report followed by an test to get another one. Or kill an enemy, use Evidence! and investigate with it. |
Nov 28, 2019
|
Nov 28, 2019Switchblade 2's damage output is unreliable and tony has hardly any access to permanent boosts, besides Reliable and Hired Muscle. So your combo, especially with upgraded .41 Derringer sounds pretty nice. A skill focused tony deck with 1-2 Lucky Cigarette Cases in play is also very effective to restock and hardly run out of icons. Smoking Pipe works quite well as horror heal, btw. |
Nov 29, 2019I like it. Changes I made: in goes "Let God sort them out...", out goes Vicious Blow because I am always hungry for xp. Removed Contraband 0 for "You handle this one!" because I'm playing 3p games and I find the non-upgraded Contraband too cumbersome. Will checks can be crippling even with Sour Mash down. |
Nov 29, 2019My Tony deck is running Crystallizer of Dreams with Evidence! and Intel Report. Haven't played too many scenarios as yet but so far it's proved to be a phenomenal combination. It offers the potential for him to be both a badass killing machine and a surprisingly reliable clue-getter all in one package. I've also added in Switchblade(2), which is a sensational card for Tony. Oh, and I discovered that you can combo Ever Vigilant with the crystalliser to great effect. Play EV, deploy the Crystalliser for zero resource cost and then attach EV to it afterwards for a nice little double book pip. Tony is a very powerful investigator I think. |
Nov 29, 2019I have the same thoughts about Contraband 0. It would wreck the tempo of the turns even if I was playing it with Jenny who is super rich. The upgraded version is better but I would still prefer Extra Ammo. Both with Tony are probably best though to keep his Colt's fully loaded. "Let God sort them out..." is almost a definite include for any killing machine that can take it. Or at least once I get the card (not for awhile). There is a card in there for Extra Ammo for Rogues (Swift Reload I think) that would do what is wanted from Contraband without the tempo loss. |
Nov 29, 2019All great suggestions! I'm sure we will see more good Tony cards with each new Dream Eaters pack that comes out. And yes, Tony is very powerful. I've had many scenarios where he just dominated. Monster killers don't typically have good action compression--but Tony does. I'm also curious to see what good Survivor and Seeker cards we will see in this cycle for Tony. |
Nov 29, 2019This looks good for 3-4p but I don’t think there are enough enemies in 2p for a guardian to be this specialized. Tony is actually a really good carrier (and financier) for the testless clues events like evidence, Scene of the Crime, and Intel report and he should probably have at least a few of these cards in 2p |
Nov 29, 2019
Believe it or not, I ran a version of this through Carcosa, paired with Daisy, and was still on the verge of running out of ammo! In 3+ players, you will definitely want to add 1 or 2 .45 Thompsons. If you want to build a more flexible Tony in which he will be shouldering a portion of the clue-getting, then by all means include those other cards: Scene of the Crime, Evidence!, and Intel Report. You can remove Vicious Blow to include Scene of the Crime and remove Swift Reflexes to include Intel Report. However, this specific deck sucks up a lot of resources, so you may find yourself too cash-strapped to play them. All the resources generation in this deck goes to refilling Tony's .38 Long Colt's. Lastly, in my experience, Tony's 3 allowed him to investigate 1-shroud shroud locations easily, 2-shroud locations with some success (depends on the what's in the Chaos Bag), and occasionally get lucky at a 3-shroud location. It makes a big difference from 2 ! Thank you (and everyone else) for the comments! They are very instructive to players who want to try out Tony or build a Tony deck for the first time. |
Nov 30, 2019Intel Report + Double, Double + Crystallizer of Dreams is great |
Dec 02, 2019Is the Sleight of Hand + Tony's .38 Long Colt + reaction Tony's .38 Long Colt combo to get one in play for 1r legit? Sleight of Hand puts one copy into play, but doesn't 'play' it. From the rules: "A card that has been put into play is not considered to have been played or drawn." It sucks, but I don't think you can trigger the reaction ability on the first Colt. |
Dec 02, 2019
|
Dec 02, 2019
|
Dec 03, 2019No, it does, because you "play" SoH. |
Dec 03, 2019Long Colt doesn’t have a reaction trigger for playing Sleight of Hand. |
Dec 04, 2019
|
Dec 05, 2019Just stopping by to compliment you on the idea AND the deck, I'm starting a new campaign soon with a friend and I was looking for nice decks to try out. Hope you'll go on with this format for other investigators as well! |
Dec 14, 2019Just a note that Sour Mash only works on Treachery cards, so it doesn't help with Liquid Courage. |
Dec 14, 2019If playing with .45 Thompson, what's the game stage/timing window look like with it being a 2-handed? When do you get rid of your Colts? |
Dec 14, 2019Also, what are peoples' thoughts about Timeworn Brand? That just seems like a far better option than .45 Thompson. Actually seems stupid good as it's a one handed weapon. |
Dec 15, 2019It is an awesome weapon, but it's 5xp, so 10xp for two copies. That's a big commitment for Tony, who doesn't really need the +2 fight boost in the same way other investigators do. Switchblade(2) is a better option for him I think. It doesn't have quite the same guarantee of extra damage from your attacks but it's still very reliable in that respect, it's fast, much cheaper to play and comes at a saving of 4 or 6 xp for two copies depending on whether you're using the taboo list. I'd avoid the Thompson altogether personally. Tony wants to keep one hand free for a Colt where at all possible. |
Dec 15, 2019^^^Makes sense. |
Dec 16, 2019Timeworn Brand is awesome, especially on investigators with no ressource problems like Tony. Add Prepared for the Worst to get it quicker. It's just so much more reliable not being limited by ammunition. I prefer Switchblade 2 with Reliable however, cause i use the brand on nearly anyone else and it's a bit boring always using the same weapon. |
Dec 21, 2019Some thoughts on Versatile for Tony: You can take Hallowed Mirror for the most efficient horror healing available to him, which ALSO grants him card draw. Furthermore, you can elect to grab Guts x2 and Say Your Prayers x2 to further bolster his Willpower. Going with the Neutral skill cards can be a way to offset his increased deck size. It can also be a fun way to squeeze in 3 copies of Easy Mark. All of these cards except for Say Your Prayers have built-in card draw, so they make great additions! If you don't want to pay xp for the level 0 cards, you can always Adaptable them in. |
Dec 21, 2019
|
Dec 29, 2019Any thoughts on Swift Reload for Tony? It seems made for him. Maybe in place of Contraband? |
Jan 09, 2020

Feb 21, 2020Just finished my first complete cycle of Arkham Horror with this deck, and had an absolute blast. My buddy and I played through Dunwich; he piloted a Rex. Over all, things went well. I took a pair of Mental Traumas somewhat early, thanks to some bad luck with the encounter deck. I ended up needing to grab Hallowed Mirror and a Smoking Pipe to offset the sanity loss; my only regret was not starting with one or both. I was terrified of finding clues during Lost in Time and Space, but the low shroud locations really helped. But the murdering - oh my, the murdering. Very few things posed any real threat once Tony got set up. Sleight of Hand was phenomenal with Tony's .38 Long Colt. Thank you so much for the effort put in on the deck! |
Feb 27, 2020
|
Apr 23, 2020What do you think about getting the Chicago Typewriter instead of the Thompson? Its more ammo-efficient against most things with the +2 damage and youve got the actions to make it work. |
Apr 25, 2020
I’d say if you like it as an option, go for it! |
Sep 02, 2020Hallowed Mirror is an Asset. Can Tony Morgan even have this card in his deck? |
Sep 02, 2020
|
Sep 13, 2020i prefer Crystallizer of Dreams in this deck(so we have to reduce the amount of skill card in this deck),and i'm considering using Beretta M1918 . Here're some events i think that are very useful to replace skill First Watch "Get over here!" "If it bleeds..." Ever Vigilant Scene of the Crime Sure Gamble Elusive |
May 14, 2021Gotta say, man. Love your decks! Patrice and Tony worked very well! |
May 30, 2021I really like this deck, and want it to give it a go for a 4 player dreameater campaign. I have two concerns: how do you avoid not getting killed with willpower and agility encounter cards? now that the innsmouth conspiracy entire cycle has been released, what cards would you consider putting in your deck from the start, and as upgrades? |
Jul 03, 2022How does the taboo on slight of hand change the deck building? (seeing as you cant use it on his long colts |
I don't know what I would replace but I really enjoyed playing Interrogate with Mark Harrigan in my last campaign. It might not be the most efficient way to pick up clues but it is a lot of fun hoping that a Humanoid enemy pops up.
I don't plan to get Dreameaters any time soon (still have 9 packs of FA/TCU to get) but Tommy might be my favorite of the newest investigators. The bounty mechanic is a nice twist.
