  1. Again not Malifaux but a friend introduced me to Saga the other day and I decided to paint up some Scots.

    Lord and Thanes (one of the Thanes wasn't quite finished when I took the photo).

    Been playing around with different Tartan patterns, lot of fun!

    The Shields are interesting to work on too, I think I'm going to try some more complicated patterns.

    We are starting a new League in Brisbane this week so it should motivate me to paint some more Malifaux.

  2. Glimpse is resistible on a 13, only buries one model at a time, and breaks as soon as something dies. Pine box is opposed with a middling accuracy stat. Offensive burial tricks may be nifty but I think the crews going to get more mileage out of burying their own toys. Using it internally makes for an unparalleled delivery mechanism, a great way to avoid repercussion, and get a little healing and buffing done at the same time.

    Agreed, Karina in particular looks pretty fragile.

  3. I love the fact that one of her core tricks is to give your opponent Fast and that confers bonuses to her own crew. So your opponent gets more AP to play with but are going to die more quickly.

    Really makes me feel like the idea behind her is, "Live Fast, Die Young."

    In regards to the Bury mechanic being NPE, I think your opponent is only going to have 1 model buried most of the time and that's not unreasonable. The trick is going to be juggling what you're burying and unburying.

    Death Marshals need to be in 1" range to Pine Box so you're looking at turn 3+ and as others have said it's not impossible to avoid being boxed.

  4. I think Bishop could be really good with Tara.

    Swift and Fast will stack giving him a filthy 4 General AP to play with. He can deal out Slow to negate the positive effects of Fast that are being handed out and adds an extra threat to the table.

    Other Outcasts that could be good are; Convict Gunslinger and Hans for some ranged threat that is otherwise lacking and both can trigger for Slow, Ronin who can Seppuku for additional cards (or Stones), the obvious Killjoy and maybe Hannah (not 100% on her).

  5. Am I correct in noticing that neither the Void Wretches nor Cthulhu (sorry, The Nothing Beast) have a characteristic such as Living, Undead or Construct.

    Would this mean that they simply do not drop a token of any sort on death?

    Really looking forward to seeing what this crew can do, I have a feeling that Tara is going to be right up there with the most powerful Masters.

  6. Ok a little more work done, I don't like batch painting as I prefer to work on one miniature at a time. It's less efficient but it allows me to enjoy painting whereas batch painting makes me feel like it's work.

    A couple more Steam Abominations

    Second one that I call "Sack Boy"

    And because he clearly has to drag himself around I couldn't help but add that detail in

    I'm hoping to finish the Leveticus Starter box this week then I'll either expand on it or move onto another Starter.

    As always Comments and Constructive Criticism are welcome.

  7. I've been very slack for the last few years and have not painted much so with the imminent arrival I decided to start painting up my crews and clear out the backlog.

    First crew to face the brush is Leveticus and friends.

    Rusty Alice

    Malifaux Child or as I have been calling him, "Levi's Red-headed Stepchild"

    post-2873-13911929985519_thumb.jpg

    Steam Abomination (The number on the base is due to the fact some of my crew pull double duty in a Necromantic Bloodbowl team, "Orange Clockworks")

    post-2873-13911929986151_thumb.jpg

    I'm pretty out-of-practice but I was mostly going for a table-top standard that I'd be happy with.

    Comments and constructive criticism are always welcome.
