Ello,
I just started playing again after playing when the game launched. I found my Gremlinette and shes basically NIB. Anyone have any thoughts what shes worth? If I can sell her to help me buy new models I think I might...

Procreate or begin creating spawn somehow, nurture them and in time you'll have both tax breaks and "gamers"!

Pandora isn't as straight forward as the other masters can be. Teddy will give you a solid starting area (her main issue at the starter level is fixed by teddy) and from there after a few games you can make your own decisions on the crew.

Another blister of dead hookers is first thing I'd recommend for Seamus, plus his totem is an AMAZING model and the rules are really solid as well.

Rasputina loves the essence of power totem, but the wendigo is really cool looking, so thats a toss up. I like running the cat swarm over constructs but that requires a few blisters (2-3 hoar cats and the big guy). The December acolyte is a really solid investment with her (anti undead and helps with the slow speed of her starter). So Tina box plus totem and acolyte is prolly how I'd do it!.

The gremlin starter is a great thing to double up on! Okay maybe not literally but either doubling your gremlin numbers, or the warpig is normally what I'd recommend. A Hog whisperer/piglet, is a welcome addition for the pigs. You certainly can play 25ss with a starter and a hog whisperer blister. From there you can decide if you want the stampeding pigs or the gremlin swarm!

The best "killing yourself" thread I've found.

Friendly bump, hope to see you at the event.

JMP sells terrain I bought enough for a single table and am heavily contemplating getting more! It's really high quality stuff.

Ryan

Just a heads up there is a group of us who play Malifaux every week at http://www.skullgate.com/ in Lakewood Colorado. We play on Fridays from noon on. There are tons of tables and we're always ready and willing to do a demo game. You can pm me here or on the skullgate forums.

Hope to see some of you there,

Ryan

Pole Dancers, and an open bar.

That is all.

My kid just turned 1 last week so ya it's defiantly different. I do get to blame my sub par painting on her as she will walk over to my painting table and just shack it while I'm painting ><.

Ryan

HEY!

If you're ever down in denver on a friday shoot me a pm! We play and enchanted grounds in highlands ranch and newly Skull gate Games in lakewood on Colfax, we'll be playing this weekend if there's any chance of you making an hour plus drive to hang out with a bunch of guys and toy pseudo soldiers...

Ryan!

I was actually the recipient of this Gremlin village and I'd like the say the work was very nicely done. He built the terrain to order and it all has a very nice theme/feel to it. I got more than enough to cover a 3x3, with Malifaux lvl's of terrain. The price was extremely reasonable imo, for custom work and he got the entire project done in under 10 days. i highly recommend him for anyone looking to buy terrain.

Regards,

Ryan

The librarian is a total bad ass!

Hey welcome I'll try to answer your questions as best as I can.

1. Factions can use any model in their faction. The only restriction there at this time are some totems are bound to certain masters. 90% of the time your list has to stay in faction. There are some models that allow the taking of out of faction models however.

2. The factions are nearly that focus'd imo. The guild have hard counters. The ortegas shoot really well, Lady J is an anti undead machine, and Sonnia is an anti magic user caster. Out of the guild LJ is the combat master. There is no shooting faction, melee faction, magic faction they really can do almost anything.

3. A standard deck of cards works you just need the little guide. The suits correspond to different suits in malifaux. There is a quick reference guide stickied that is great for that.

4 and 5 fall together it's pretty unique. Not sure who coined it but;

"I'm often asked what genre and elements make up Malifaux ... that's simple, its: Steamvictoriohorrorwestpunk! Hope that clears it up for you." is a common line.

When doing terrain (there are rules in the book) the location chosen/random'd could be any number of places. A swamp, gremlin village is going to look much different that a wild west prairie town. It's a large area that is filled with different themes.

Hope that Helped,

Ryan

Hey Gryffen,

If you're down in the metro area we are going to meet again this coming Friday (16oct) around noon at Enchanted grounds. it's a game/coffee store in Highlands ranch. Today we had two new people learning the game and one that could not make it due to real life flaring up. Between us we have most masters so if you're interested in learning and want a particular caster hopefully we can accommodate you. I'll send you a pm with more specifics!

Ryan

Looks great! You should get them printed on plastic cards. I hope that Wyrd will make decks on plastic cards eventually. i looked at custom decks but can't find a place to do plastic decks under 250 count. Ouch.

Ryan

Well when I get the terrain I bought we can take a look at it and tell me what you think! I was happy to pay someone else to do water effect terrain, I think you've seen my terrain but it was more scaled for 40k/warmachine!

Ryan

For a set I would probably pay between $60-100 for a set depending on what it would include.

A set would need:

3x3 peice of felt (green, tan, or gray depending on the set)

Enough terrain to meet the recommended 2/sq ft. Terrain being a mix of Area Terrain and Terrain Elements (3 T.E. = 1 A.T.)

So approximately 15-18 peices.

So I could see paying $60 for a set that included the following:

Tan Felt, 6 Card-stock western buildings, 6 CDs of tall grass, 3CDs of Foam Hills, 3 Fences approximately 6" long each, 3 rocks on 50mm bases, 3 dead trees on 50mm bases.

So I could see paying $80 for a set that included the following

Green Felt, 12 Trees on 50mm bases, 4 CDs of rough terrain, 3 ruined walls approximately 6" long, 4 CD Foam Hills, 4 Sheds.

or

Green Felt, 12 Dead Trees on 50mm bases, 4 CDs with graves on them, 6 short walls approximately 6" long, 3 short hedges 6" long, 4 sheds, 2 CD foam hills.

So I could see paying $100 for a set that included the following

Grey Felt, 4 Victorian Style one or two-story buildings, 4 Steampunk Style one or two-story buildings, 4 CDs of rubble and scrap, 6 short walls approximately 6" long, 2 CD Foam Hills, 1 centerpeice (a well or a fountainor a statue) on a 50mm base.

So those would be my ideas and prices I could see paying for them.

I get it! On fire! firefighter! See you on friday!

Found out about Malifaux through the D6Generation podcast (so awesome.) I've been sucked in. I'm a full time daddy, husband and firefighter in the Denver area. A freelance graphic designer and illustrator on the side. I actually opened up the first GW in Colorado some seven years ago.

Right now I need to figure out what the two best warbands are to demo the game to my friends to suck them in too! (any thoughts are welcome.) I'm eagerly awaiting what the Wyrd future has to offer.

Quick update guys I just finished turn one of the game I started with the skeeter horde 11 days ago. It's a 25SS scrim with me having Somer, 3 skeeters, a whisperer and 2 Bayous vs LJ, the exe 2 marshals, and the Judge.

First turn consisted of me moving somer up, summoning another gremlin and taking the next 11 days to figure out what I was going to do, I drew 53 cards, moved teh skeeters in for the assassination, decided not to and did this till the first night was over.

My opponent had just watched Rocky and didn't want to give up after a mere 6 hours so we reconviened the next night for more of my indisions. I could make up my mind so I just kept summing mosquetos waiting for my opponent to counter it. I figured by showing him this maneuver repeatedly it wouldn't just buy me time buy help my opponent get used to it and come up with a counter.

Long story short 11 days later I have a plan and finished my first turn. I'm just going to wait till one of the guild gets close enough for Som'er to discard their hand than send in the skeeters.

Will update when turn 2 ends!

How often should we expect new releases? Will they be in the form of new factions or extending current factions? How will you make new models enticing without the "codex creep" that other games have demonstrated, while simultaneously keeping old models pertinent?

Is located just south of C470 and university in highlands Ranch. GreySeer, Myself, and another who isn't on the boards play there whenever we can. We've been in contact with DJ but as of yet haven't met up ><. I believe our next scheduled game session is the 9th around noon. This is a Friday if this is problematic we can try and work out another time. I play Leveticus, and the Gremlins. But also own ortega. Greyseer has all the guild, Ramous, and the Hag. If there is someone in particular that interests you we can try and accommodate that also.

Anyways As I stated PM inc with more details!

Ryan

PSH you're both wrong. Bayou Gremlins are clearly the best gunslingers. Every time you shoot you hit something! and odds are every other time you're killing something!!!!

I'm a huge fan of necro punks, but there is a long enough post about them in the res section. Glad you enjoyed the game!

I have a question about thi infinite mosquito/draw your whole deck concept. If you have no card in your deck you cannot make an initial flip to cheat in a card so won't all of your actions automaticly fail?

Your right in that he'd have to try and cast something to get at least one card into the discard pile before he drew the rest out.

No store to the best of my knowledge in Colorado stocks Mali at this time or I would certainly support local. The people I play with have talked to the owner of Enchanted Grounds about carrying it and while interested he said he wasn't able to get them.

FRP refunded me today and offered me free shipping if I was to re-order when they restocked. James appears to be their customer service manager and their handling of the refund seemed to go well with me checking in just yesterday and it getting processed today. I do appreciate James's effort.

Ryan

As outcasts we can take the you didn't get your objective so we get some vp's. Than i take an infinitely long turn until time in the event runs out...Pretty lame.

It's broken, I admire the rocky analogy and the feverishness your defending your broken combo but it's not conducive to making people want to play you.

I'm hopeful the fix this sooner than later.
