Peoples Champ

Hey fellow Kiwi good to see the community growing in NZ. Hopefully soon we will be able to run our first Malifaux tournament in NZ. This weekend myself and Bruce are running a demo game at Southcon here in Dunedin on the Saturday. We will run a morning and afternoon game plus have all our different crews on display (I think 12 from memory). Posters and info handouts all done to hand out so hopefully we can get some new interest going. Why not come down?

Baby Kade for me

I just recently brought the Nico and McMorning boxes. I have had one game with each and enjoyed them both. If I had to pick a favourite I would probably favour Nico I just love the dark wizard aspect to him, more subtle but still deadly. Just buy all three...

I have been a wrestling fan from a long time back and The Rock was my favourite. One of his nicknames is the Peoples Champ.

Well I am abit closer down here in Dunedin. Seems us kiwis are going to have to get sorted a malifaux tournament sometime soon.

Silurids have (+1) instinctual that allows them to do do two different (0) actions during their activation so that was okay. The double walk would not have been able to happen though as (1) was used to pick up the treasure and i am not sure if that was added in.

Have got my vulture totem but have not had a chance to use it in a game as yet. How useful do people find it and what is its best use? I am not sure about the 'eyes and ears' action. Does it allow me to use nicos ability to use the 'arise' or 'bolster undead' action?

I had a game against Pandora with a couple of Silurid. They are very good with their extra movement they can gain. I do have a query around the 'pack' ability and taking a treasure counter. Two silurid were within 6" of each other at the start of the turn. The first siluird activated and took off ending up probably 20" away from the other silurid. The second silurid then used the pack ability to activate as well. It leaped to contact the treasure token and unfortunately as one of my figures was in melee range of it was able to push 6" away using the 'self preservation' action then walked twice to take the treasure out of my grasp. Was the second silurid able to use 'pack' even though the first silurid was now more than 6" away and was it's taking of the treasure counter all by the rules?

How do fellow guild players handle Leveticus? Played him today with LJ, Judge, Nino, Executioner and 2 Witchling stalkers. His 'Unnatural wasting spell accounted for Nino, Executioneer and LJ. You keep killing him and back he comes.

So would it work against Zoraidas Vodoo Doll using 'Conduit'? Seems that as she ignores spell range then would not that be an increase in range that Blind Justice stops?

Sorry just new and do not really understand LJs 'Blind Justice spell. "Friendly models ignore increases in Rg and Df, and any Duels required from spells or talents to target models" Does someone have a laymans explanation and possibly an example in a game situation where it would be used and useful?

Hmmm lets see... Malifaux (Soniia, Lady Justice with Nico and McMorning on their way) AT-43 (Red Blok) AE-WWII (Yanks) - great game highly recommended. Legends of the Old West (Texas rangers) Bloodbowl (Humans) Confrontation (previous version with Wolfen and Cadwallon) - amazing game so sad when they changed the rule set and brought in pre-painted figures. 40k (although I just sold my last army so have nothing to play with, was going to start up a Space Wolfs list then I came upon Malifaux...)

There seems to be a few of us kiwis on here now. Would love to know who would be keen to come to NZs first malifaux tournament if I put one on. The local club put on a gaming convention over Queens birthday and I would be happy to run a comp if the interest is there. Who would come to Dunedin if I put something together?

Just shift south to Dunedin the game is just starting to take off here. Maybe one of the Wellington guys can put on a tournament later next year possibly at Call to Arms (run by the warlords). It's halfway for most. I'd be keen. Happy to run one at Southcon (late May) if people want to travel south.

Love the model and have been running the Executioner the last 3 games with Sonnia, Samael and 2 witchling stalkers (playing 25ss). However he is proving to be less than successfull usually getting shot or cast out of the game. How do people usually play with the big guy?

Can you cast Violation of magic on friendly models? Reading the spell it just says target model so maybe you can...

It would be interesting to hear what the top three place-getters had in their crews... Can anyone help?

When would a morale duel typically happen? Only played a couple of games and it hasn't come up.

I wondering how many have used Sonnia's totem, the Purifying Flame, and what are their experiences? I was looking at putting a new order through and adding the Purifying Flame or Governors proxy to my existing witchhunters crew. If you had a choice which would you use?

Had my fist game last week as well coincidentally using the same forces (apart from the fact I had 3 witchling stalkers and no Governors proxy or executioner). Similar result although Sammael was the big damage dealer on the day. Sonnia was very good too. We didn't play it exactly right rules wise as we misinterpreted a few things however got a real good feeling for the system which we liked a lot. One question however regarding your report. I see you had a Governors proxy tell me what benefit does it bring and how good is it? I am going to put a new order in for extra figures and wondered if I should buy it.

Same problem any help gratefully recieved.

More kiwis is all good. There are a few of us now. Maybe one day we can all get organised and have a wee tournament.

Fortunately I will get to play on Bruce's terrain. Sonia and crew on the way...
