  1. Not Looking for Drama. Just shaking my head. I thought for sure I'd've been back in a while ago and that I would be Riding Roasters by now. I am also not trying to pick any fights with Wyrd either, just really really anxious to get my hands on the rest of Book 2. The whole catching up redoing the Old models to plastic really makes the whole release thing feel slower. Closing Time and Merris are really the only new Gremlins I had added to my Gremlins in about two years. That's how I feel about it. But I will be ok soon enough, just getting too Greedy for Green and don't have enough Green for all of the GenCon Green, if you know what I mean.
  2. I need more Pigglets. Now that the Gremlins are ready to go I am back to Kick Butt and Play the Banjo! "Where be me Boomstick cuz?"
  3. So I started playing Malifaux the first year it came out, Teddy was Just Realeased, and I really like the game a lot. I even was part of a Malifaux Podcast, Through The Breach, and followed Wyrd's growth through the years. That said when 2nd Ed was released I took a break and said I will start playing again when Book One Models are all converted to Plastic. As you can see I am Just now getting back to Malifaux and am feeling rather putout by the incredibly slow release schedule. Question is what Is Going On here? This isn't a young company anymore and they have moved into their new warehouse awhile ago now and should have worked out all the wrinkles with the managment shuffle. So Now GenCon is upon us and I am a Gremlin only player now and I am poor at the moment. So If I miss getting the Gremlin Box Sets in the coming weeks will I be waiting until sometime next year before I see them? I mean come on guys, I want to get into this game full speed again but you're killing me with the release schedule. What's going on? Will it get better?
  4. I have seen many players that play to "Win" instead of playing for the game itself. There is a big difference that you as an opponent can feel when you are playing. So be competitive and have fun, but if your competitiveness is getting in the way of your fun and hobby you have a problem. (Trust me, I knew all the meanest lists in the past but refused to play them after testing them out because it was not a fun win, for me or my opponent. So I turned down my competitive lists to fit my meta. Hence Gremlins last edition instead of the Neverborn I started with.)
  5. I am a firm believer that many games should be play for Fun and you don't need to be competitive all the time. The Model looks great and if players don't want to play it because it is not top tier then it is their loss. Besides Gremlins are not such push overs that you can't take a fun model every now and then. (Last edition I tended to play less competitive lists so my opponent could enjoy their game too. My Ophelia was feared.)
  6. Looking at doing just that with mine. Need to look around for a good idea, though the tree trunk is a good one.
  7. For Transport magnetize the bases and use a tin box. This should prevent them from moving around during transport and give more than adequate protection. Game play wise, what are you doing during game that is a danger? Throwing models? Seriously just don't be rough with them during game and they should last a while. It's up to you.
  8. Point for the Bunny. I haven't played a Henchman with a Master yet, though I have played my Henchwoman plenty, so lack of experience got me there. Side note after a game last night where my friend and Cohost Mr. Biggles beat me like ninja ghostbusters with Kaeris, Ramos and an army of constructs my feeling on taking Von Beatschtick has changed. Show no mercy!:hellboy: Mr. B is the best
  9. I was just poking fun at you. It is a very ligit tactic and definitely not the evilest combo in the game. But as I am sure you know if done right that just sounds like hell to face. Hope you didn't pick Kill Protege.
  10. Do you beat up old ladies and steal lunches from school kids too? That is so evil I don't know if I can bring myself to do it......much. Definitely a tourney only option for me. I like having players enjoy playing against me.*drink*
  11. Well I highly suggest leaving the ugly birds out of the display but there is nothing wrong with beating your opponent's face in with an ugly model. Sometimes the greatest beatsticks are just damn..... Well you get the point. As long as this is a crew you enjoy I wouldn't let one model ruin your fun. And imagine your opponent's reaction when he laughs at the bird woman just to see his jaw drop as it attacks his support pieces in their deployment zone turn one.
  12. Well..... Yes. But remember that Harmless and Pitiful reactivate at the beginning of every turn so they will have Harmless at the beginning of every turn. Think of it as the last step in every turn is end affects, unless otherwise stated, and the very first step of every turn is activate character abilities. (Like Harmless.) There are many examples where the end of the affect is not stated if you look through the book and all of them end at the end of the turn. Now when an affect lasts the rest of the Game it will state "till the end of the Encounter." if I am not mistaken. And those are rare. Edit: The other main type is where it states "when this model activates next." is the wording I believe, for stuff like Paralysis and Poison.
  13. I hear you, luckly our meta is very fun oriented and not overly competitive so stopping to explain an action is fine. Also I am one of the guys that everyone asks rules questions from so this would be a minor inconvenience for me. Heck i even have to correct my Henchman and cohost on the rules for LOS becuase Josh forgets to read the first sentence. :-P Love ya Josh buddy.
  14. Oh, now that is just rude. I might have to try it.*grin*
