It was mentioned earlier that someone used persistant distraction on their entire crew so that the enemy crew had to activate everything first. I think that's an interesting trick and almost more than enough reason to merit using him as a totem! The Gamer's Lounge guys were talking about him in the book 3 wrap up podcast. Being able to move him on an incite action is a really good tool. You can put him in position in a turn, or charge a model. Flurry the target his next activation, incite to get out of combat or to reposition him, then use his ranged expert AP to make another shot. He's quite useful, and argueably one of the better Woe kids. That effigy is a bullet. It's great when you have cards in your hand to manage to get off a good charge on a model that's out of position. After damaging the model you push X inches depending on the damage you dealt. He also has a great defense buff which can stack with the Arcane Effigy's magic resist buff, making it harder for your puppets to be the targets of blasts. I'm on a worldwide campaign to prove that the Hodgepodge effigy is better than what people think but I won't divulge on that here! No real play time with that model(s) A big meh to me. Once I wrap my head around the Alilith lists I'll put more use to them. Someone else probably has better input there than I would. I love this model. He can safely move up the board. He can push out of combat, make devastating strikes, create great flanks, the list goes on. I almost always take him in a list that requires an objective. ---------- Post added at 03:24 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:20 PM ---------- I have to make a counter point to that statement. You're correct in saying it loses some benefits while being in a list with Pandora. With the Dreamer you get an 8 stone model that has reistance to ranged strikes and spells on turn one. If it engages you can switch it to give models it attacks slow with a hard to wound 1 on top of it's regen 1. Then, you can flip it's effects another turn and give him a critical strike on masks you draw while attacking. Add that to the fact that you can push him 9 inches on a mounted combat strike to get him out of trouble or into a position. He may seem lackluster to some other riders but I do think that he serves a very useful purpose as a flank model in any neverborn list.

Her avatar is more geared towards board control. Waldgheists being able to move the terrain around is so important when landing strikes with her and allowing for full benefit from her spells. Nekima is more of a beatstick support. It sounds strange but be prepared to play her as such. Shes great at destroying one model but if left unchecked she will fall, and surprisingly quickly.

Very good to hear. Viks are a little more striaght forward yet their schemes that can be used against them work similar to how they work other 2 master crews.

A primordial magic could've been anywhere during that dialogue, waiting to switch em If it doesn't state what type of model it hits then it pertains to enemies. You can also target friendly models too. It's due in part to the ambiguity of the spell. But you wouldn't hit Lilith because you can hit enemies as well.

The ruling for conduct aether was talked about in a rules forum. It's understood to be giving another ap to cast spells, it can be combined with another general ap to cast 2 action spells or even channel a spell.

I bought mine last november off ebay for about 40 bucks. Granted that was a year ago and before the black friday sale when Wyrd resold the sculpt. Try posting in the Trade Forums and see what people want for her

I don't really know to be honest... I have Carrion for corpse counter denial and lose immunities to stitched, Brutal for ranged support and healing, and Arcane for the extra card and free spell for Collodi. Never really looked much into the others honestly.

I ran Collodi as a master a week ago and the list was something to this extent: Collodi 4 Marionettes Widow Weaver Arcane Effigy Brutal Effigy 2 Stitched The Stitched with Collodi's +2 WP and a fast action made sure nothing was left alive on my opponents end of the table. That and filling Marionettes with stones made it close to impossible for my opponent to get through a marionette wall with my objective being distract. Widow Weaver just grabbed/made scrap counters waiting to make a Teddy too! Good times!

The first thing I thought when I saw these are the different Latern Corps that make up the Green Lantern universe XD so cool!

Demo Friday August 10, 9pm to 1am Showcase comics 1067 West Baltimore Pike, Media PA 19063 Shoot me message here if you're interested in coming out! Late night open gaming for any and all Malifaux players!

if you picked up the Dead Justice box set last year you could use some of those figures as well.

I love the new decks. Since Xavier started a post about making them I've wanted the design. The style of the cards really draw people in when two people are using the new decks.

I can see what you mean. But having a model with Use Soulstone on a claim jump 4 or 5 turns into a game that can't be moved and also having a model that simultaneously activates who can heal her without being within a certain amount of range is equally just as good to me.

I've been using a lot of Avatar Pandora lately, especially with Claim Jump. She's quite interesting to use with Candy being able to heal Dora via Bond and using her as LoS is a unique combo. AZoraida is awesome too. Such cycling potential with your deck it's absurd! ALilith I'm toying with, as with ADreamer. Just haven't gotten around to wrapping my head around them!

Great job guys! I kinda ran past the fan fiction stuff but I dig the tutorials and interviews! Once I have a free minute I'll read through it. Congrats again guys!

Very nice work! I dig how the markers are made out ofwirk soulstone miners! Kudos

Hey guys! Come on out Friday night July 27th for some casual gaming at Showcase Comics Friday Night gaming! We'll be starting some Story Encounters at 9pm, no entry fee, just some fun organized events! Dead heat league matches are also encouraged! send me a private message if you have any questions about the event! Hope to see you there!

This discussion is getting old. I voted no because the joker is fine as is. You're all upset over a mechanic that each player has yet the odds of getting hit by the damage joker is a 1/54 chance on that single flip alone. Sorry if I sound out of line but I feel like these threads cause whining for the sake of whining.

Dead Heat Tournament Friday July 14th 12pm to 6pm 491 York road, Jenkintown Pa It will be a n open faction 30ss tournament using the Dead Heat scenarios and objectives! Any questions or directions message me!

I think this idea is an AMAZING IDEA! By the way... uhm... if you're not using those horns and wanna mail 'em to me hehe nah but seriously it can work you just need some green stuff and probably make her have some bangs or something!

Can we possibly get some more menacing looking sorrows too while we're on the topic of resulpts? They look really small and I dislike that the Poltergheist looks more threatening then the embodiment of pain and sorrow lol.

Well in all my years! I kid I kid! We don't talk about trying to cuddle Von Schill... unless we all want Hulkamania to finally come to Malifaux.....

Yes it has to be two attacks that kill the model. example: Seamus is hit by Dustcrusher for 9 damage, normally this would box him and he'd be deader then Squidpidge on a Sunday. However, Hard to Kill then activates and prevents him dying, he is left with 1 wound remaining. If notmikehill were to attack Seamus at any time he would have 1 wound left, Seamus' Hard to Kill ability will not activate, thus killing the Mad Hatter once and for all.

Man I'd hate to be on the other end of an obey in your gamer group. Stoning to hit on a minion model could be devastating... :Paralyzed_Puppet:

Models with Hunter can see further INTO a forest, but not entirely through the forest piece.
