  1. You will find that killing your own models (desperate Merc) is almost a given for a specific army type. Resser's and Lilith grow lists that I know of.

    I think it's getting a little over board but people have figured it out that if you can get that 2ss to make 5ss (or higher model) then be a Team Killing.. er.. you know the rest.

  2. Lady J decides it is time to change the rules of Thunderdome to "Two WOMEN enter, one Woman leaves" and figures even though Hoffman fights like a little school boy who has been shoved in a locker... Rules are the rules.. (-10 Hoffman).

    Lady J then breaks out into song with "We don't need another hero!" (+5 lady J)

    Sword Vik - 55

    C. Hoffman - 10

    Lady J - 35

  3. Howdy,

    Most players I know either hang out at Dream Wizards in Rockville but I know that Games and Stuff in Glen Burnie has been building up Tuesday night as a Malfo night.

    I live in columbia so will bounce into either but mostly I play Thursday's down at Dream Wizards.

  4. Speaking of Games and Stuff, how often do they do Malifaux events (if at all)? I'm going to be closer to there soon, when I go back to school.

    They have just started up Tuesday Night Malifaux and I was told they were going to try a once a month or every other month event.

    Games and Stuff is the only place (around D.C in MD) I know that has stock on hand.. I know Dream Wizards in Rockville will order but the only thing they really keep on hand is GW stuff..

  5. Papa loco should be very useful against this list I think. The combo tends to be grouped up so they wouldn't want to Lure him and risk the 5dg IF they thought someone else could step in a do the 2dg to finish off the Lilitus.

    Anything with immune to influence helps cut the 18" lure down unless Pandora is pushed out front. But just because pandora is out front doesn't really change the combo..

    Witchling stalker could be helpful as the combo breaker with reflect magic to help break up the group a little bit.

    Ryle with Breach Psychosis.. unless pandora would override that.

    Just some thoughts.. I haven't started Guild yet but have dead justice so it's on my list..

  6. I know your a henchmen and like the game. I understand that it is a "big event tournament" and there is a "I want to win scenario" but do you honestly think this list is good for the game?

    Look at most game systems where tournaments "trickle down" into "casual" areas. You yourself stated in your podcast stated how 1-2 people dropped from the tournament.

    Would in all reality this be a list that was worth unveiling? Think about how many people could (exception being competitive types) just glance at a game in a hobby store seeing a list like this in operation and just flat out say F-that game nevermind trying to come into this system.

    Granted I play in tournaments and I understand that in a major one you aren't inclined to bring a fuzzy handcuff list and all. But in all reality you admit to it being wholeheartedly a negative play experiance. Do you think this was really a wise decision "as a steward of the game (henchmen)" unleashing it to the hive mind to just copy paste repeat?

    This is off-topic but want to make one note before getting back to the regular topic(s):

    I will point out here that Nix wasn't there as a henchman and he was a good guy. I'm not questioning Nix's reasons for the list since it was a tournie and it seemed to bring out a more competitive streak for people.

    As I said before, the attitude was very different for the masters than I had seen earlier. More serious, more competitive, more rules discussions but if a game system needs/wants to have a serious tournie with serious competitive lists then I am happy if it stays in "the masters" where myself, a more casual player for sure, will be happy to watch from the sidelines.

    And back to our regular topic :)

  7. I'm having mixed results with the dog's. I do think I will use more support models once I get them painted at the start.

    I also forgot about the drawing a card but I tend to suffer from wrong suit for reanimate.

    The dogs have worked well as a in the face and Bette delivery system and then the rest of the force tends to move up.

    I was making a mistake about the Fog so wasn't using that much but that will be changing now.

  8. Did Masters have some kind of qualifiers? As I thought that it was just a normal tournament and there were newbies as well as hardened tournament players present? An honest question as it is entirely possible (indeed likely) that I have missed something and that Masters was indeed somehow only the cream of the crop.

    There were no qualifiers. In fact I signed up with the idea of just some more friendly games for the weekend and was a bit surprised how quickly the competitive attitude jumped and how many more rules questions seemed to pop up just because it was "the masters". I thought the masters was just a nice title not the grand poobah of tournies. At least I know for next time! :)

  9. It was a frustrating list to play against :) that chain casting Lure and self healing group is just a sick combo if you are not prepared for it. So the game was frustrating but you were a good opponent. Still don't think I'll be at the NOVA event's unfortunately.

    I still wish you could have triggered Nico staff and beat himself (w/ self loathing) into a mindless undead. It would have been funny!
