Distinction of Embalming

From Fallen London Wiki

Huh, just got distinction of Embalming, with Livers/Spines/Knuckles. It wasn't even hard, a 7-0 run. It was a good team, but it didn't feel amazing, because I didn't have enough prep some of the time, and would occasionally have to waste actions early on on no-check king cards. But knuckles and spines really are pretty awesome at finishing out a run.

I think the main strategy with Embalming, for me, was pick a decent team that uses the highway stats and then spam second chances. It kills my EPA of course, if I take into account the actions to get the second chances back. Without second chances my success chances were about ~80% on all checks, which probably was low enough that I would have failed some runs, but just using second chances almost all the time makes that effectively a 96% success chance (and occasionally, on a fail, a way to cycle a card for an action without it using in-game time! Just perhaps-not out of the second chance!).
