  1. You can have my hat.... for a Belgian fries sandwich!
  2. Follows his nose right back into the thread. Either that or yazza's mind control is working!
  3. Grabs hat and runs away while nobody is looking. Runs away cackling like a maniac and shouting 'I'll be back'
  4. Struts his naked cat like stuff! You'll all regret stopping my escape...
  5. Battles with Yazza's sticky fingers. Luckily Karn's harpoon went through my hat.
  6. I'm going to guess predator. Crap, what am I doing in this thread. Runs out door...
  7. I can see them releasing both at gen con, playtest permitting of course.
  8. I read, and try not to think of anything controversial... in case anyone on there can read my mind.
  9. When you start classifying your friends by faction. There is no doubt I am at a guild arcanist wedding.
  10. I enjoyed it generally and think that you got the character just right. There were a couple of points I got confused at, particularly the first part till he sat bolt upright - although it is late and I'm tired so it may just be me. Would read your stories for the other masters.
  11. Pretty much this. You will need the dogs and mcm also offer some sturdier minions such as Belles, pz or crooked men. Like Kanhead stated bete is great fun but a bit hit or miss.
  12. Welcome aboard. The base rules are surprisingly easy to grasp, the tricky part is getting to know your crew. Which crew did you go for? Anyway, whether it's game rules or help getting to know your crew there will always be someone here willing and able to offer assistance. Hope you enjoy the game and the forums.
  13. Thanks very much, but that is the end of the story. You may yet find out what happened to her though.
  14. Another vote for reading. I'm always part way through a book and read almost anything. My favourite book I have read recently was a Harry Houdini biography but I admit I am a sucker for crime fiction.
  15. I awoke.... I was no longer restrained, but I was in great pain. I cast my eyes to the source of the searing pain that seemed to course through my body. And then I screamed!
  16. I awoke....at least I thought I had..... to what seemed an endless sea of white. The pressure on my arms and chest indicated I was restrained, the fact I couldn’t move my head to check seemed to confirm it. My memory and vision were blurry. I could remember being bundled into a prison cart where I hit my head and lost consciousness for the first time, and I could also now see a grid like pattern in the white that had been flooding my vision. I was staring at a ceiling. The panic that I had felt from the moment I was thrown from the pastor’s sermon seemed almost unbearable now, beating on my inside like a caged animal and wanting to escape in a scream. I would not scream! And then I heard something.... a gentle melodic humming rising and falling in volume. I’m sure I recognised the tune but could not place it. I tried angling my head to see from whom the music came but it was stuck fast. I had no choice but to lay still and listen.... Muffled voices.... a scraping sound... all the while the humming continued. Then I heard something more distinct, and although it was clearly at a distance, it sounded to me like high heels on wood. I had only heard that sound once before but would remember it forever. It had been the one and only time my parents had taken me to the Star to see the matinee performance. The exotic costumes, lights and music had seemed magical to me then, and I had always secretly hoped that it might be me one day, on the stage, soaking up the adulation of the crowd. It was the sound of the dancers shoes as they traversed the stage that had stayed with me and that I was reminded of now. I could hear them coming closer but something was not right, the person walked strangely. The sound was definitely the tapping of shoes on the floor but it sounded as if there was three legs. The sound was almost upon me now and the humming had ceased. “Ah Lucius, what brings you to my humble lab? Surely such messy matters are beneath the great Governor’s secretary?” It was a man’s voice. I took it to be a weak man. “It was me who sent her here Douglas, you have the plans, and you know what is required of you. My question to you is, why is it not done?” The man clearly known as Lucius, responded. “Ahh but these things take time sir. They are matters of science and precision. One cannot go blundering in, no matter how eager to please one might be. And anyway, I require supplies for this kind of matter. Sebastian is attending to that as we speak sir.” “Let me be quite clear. I am aware of the nature of such matters. I am also aware that you manage to make plenty of time for your out of hours activities. Yes, I know all about your little trips to the zone. Oh don’t you worry Douglas, these activities are between you and me. Just like my little request now, eh? Again though, in the interests of clarity, you will be doing exactly as I tell you for the foreseeable future, and right now I am telling you to dig out the plans I had sent down here, and start giving the girl the attention she deserves.” “eh, yes yes, I er, see what you mean sir, of course it was always to be my first priority sir. I rarely have the opportunity to work on someone so......fresh. I will begin immediately, Sebastian is due back shortly with what I require in any event. I shall let you know when it is done.” “See that you do Douglas.” The tap, tap tapping sound began again as Lucius turned and – I assumed - left the room. Suddenly a face appeared before me grinning from ear to ear, a large amount of ginger hair held back by what looked to me like a miner’s lamp, strapped to his forehead. “Well hello my dear, I see you are awake. My name is McMourning and it is an absolute pleasure to meet you. I can honestly say that it is a rare delight to get to chat with the subject of my ministrations!” His smile spread further as he spoke, it appeared it was trying to escape by leaping off either side of his face. I feared however that if I opened my mouth my scream would leak out. “Not looking to talk eh? Well I’m sure I can talk enough for the both of us.” “I heard all about the damage you did to six grow men as you were arrested you know? Quite a scene I understand, blood and teeth everywhere, how I would have loved to have been there. I only assume that is why Lucius has requested my services. They say you are the religious type? Is that where you get your strength from? I would certainly have enjoyed a little more time finding out exactly where you get it from but I am afraid my instructions are fairly clear, and let me tell you, you are a very lucky girl indeed. Some people in this forsaken hellhole of a city pay me good money for what you are going to get for free. Promise me you won’t go spreading the word I do freebies on the side?” I already knew I hated this man and tried to convey that in a cold stare. Whether he saw that or the panic his words had somehow instilled in me I do not know. “Well, you certainly don’t seem the blabbermouth type to me.” “Anyway, even I can’t keep talking all day” He leaned over me, a light reflected off the scalpel in his hand. “For what you are about to receive may the lord make you truly thankful!” And with that his upbeat humming began anew.
  17. although I never ended up going to his club, DangerousBeans was kind enough to introduce me to It when I had just started the game and confirm him to be a gentleman.
  18. after this thread I'm not convinced any of you have a real job.
  19. Anything you can't explain just blame on the force. Or soulstone mutations
  20. While I agree with many of the points made in relation to the fact Malifaux is likely to stay within 50 points in terms of regular games I can definitely see some large kits coming out in the future, stagecoaches, nightmare versions of other mini's etc. I still think Mentat has a very valid question in terms of how wyrd is to expand in the years to come. It is very hopeful to suggest Wyrd can continue to grow simply on the back of one skirmish game. Luckily they already seem to be taking the next steps required, with the upcoming release of puppet wars. Also, Terraclips should appeal to many gamers outside of the world of Malifaux as it is something completely new and sorely missing from the hobby. How long it will take for it to pay for itself after the nightmare they seem to be having in production is anyone's guess. I don't think Malifaux and puppet wars will be enough to really move Wyrd to the next level - if they want to go there - luckily it seems everyone at wyrd seems to be well on top of moving things forward and I have yet to be negatively surprised by the direction they are taking.
  21. Guten tag Lukas, wie gehts? Ich hoffe du has viel spass mit malifaux! Ich war in Duetschland gebohren aber ich cann night duetsch sprachen. Ok I have run out of what is no doubt grammatically murderous German phrases. Welcome aboard!
  22. For anyone still looking for a kaeris proxy the new blight witch model by studio Mcvey is well worth a look.
  23. Actually I was wrong it was 29 pages. Don't know where I got 17 from. I almost wish I could have followed it rather than being at work.
  24. Ok, this thread jumped from 9 pages to 17 in a few hours. Can someone tell me if they are all about sweets, hugs and armour? :banned:
