Thanks Sozoa!

-Uriel

OT, sorry, but I noticed that many of you have the little cartoon Masters... Where/how do I attach these?

Is there a library of them somewhere? It'd be very cool to link which Masters I use/will be using.

Thanks,

-Uriel

Watched a Guild (Sonnia) vs Outcast (Vikkies) game tonight.

Turn 2, Hans took out a Peacekeeper with a well placed shot, then a second (Kill Shot) with a Red joker flip.

Numbers Crunchers can lambast stats all day, but if you use him right, he can pin down a fair number of models (Outcast player had Bishop,Melee Vikkie and some Ronin moving in whilst Hans provided fire support. The game had the proper 'Old West' feel, and Dammit...that is one cool model (Ha!).

-Uriel

Just went top their site, and there is neither any news about a Malifaux bag, or anything when you type Malifaux into the Search engine...Dammit.

-Uriel

Is the case really coming out at Gencon, and not before?

-Ron

No, Rackham killed my other game...

I still play RPGs, but , as far as minis goes, it's just Malifaux right now.

-Uriel

Sounds like a great game. I have *not* yet drawn the black joker in anything meaningful.

Did you find that your game was more like a 2v1?? In our game we both didnt like pandora and both attacked her.

- Deathodia920 -

Well, the guy playing Rasputina said that we were ganging up on him (Joking), since the 3-way set up left him close to each of us, and we other 2 a bit farther from each other.

By turn 3, it was a fairly even mix, though Poor Perdita did get stuck in the middle of it for a bit. I'm still not sure how she made it through a turn and a half on 1 Wound...Hehehe.

They were both Arcanist, but they also like attacking each other, so the mayhem was pretty neutral all around.

Also, nobody really wanted to charge the Ortegas, in the small valley that I was moving through, that's a LOT of lead...

-Uriel

Nice report, I took out the full Ortega family crew for the first time on Saturday and had the 2 SS cache only, it was rough. But I know what you mean about Df8! It makes a heck of a difference.

When we all get comfortable enough, we are going to play some 30-35 SS games. I'm tempted to just add the Peacekeeper or the Executioner, but I'd like to see what Papa Loco can do as well.

-Uriel

3 Way Battle, Rasputina, Perdita, and Ramos, 25 Stone each.

Bog, plenty of terrain, 25 SS each.

(Me)

Strategy: Slaughter Rasputina's Crew,Schemes:Bodygaurd Perdita (Not announced),Raid vs. Rasputina's Crew.

Perdita

Santiago

Francisco

Nino

Enslaved Nephilim

(Dave-YamiZero on here)

Strategy: Treasure Hunt, Schemes: Stake a Claim, and Hold Out...I think (It was late, and I may be wrong)

Rasputina

Gamin

Cerberus

Steamborg Executioner

(Bill)

Strategy: Reconnoiter. Schemes: Sabotage and Eye for an Eye (I think...again, it was late)

Ramos

Steamborg Executioner

Brass Arachnid Totem

Spider Swarm

Steampunk Arachnid

Turn 1

Mostly advancing, which was difficult, with Bog all around.

Cerberus got too close to me, and an Obey sent it back at Rasputina, though it did no real damage.Some Ice Pillars went up.

Turn 2

Nino took shots at the Cerberus, Steamborgs clashed, there was much Cyborg clanging and banging... Spiders and Gamins moved forward, to take/deny the Treasure. Francisco shot a few Ice Pillars into little cubes...

Turn 3

Rasputina got fed up with Nino's rifle, hit him with a little December's Curse, he fired back, then the Cerberus came back over...poor Nino didn't live to see the Victory Celebration back at the Ortega Ranch. Francisco and Santiago were finally close enough to do some damage, and began whittling away at anything that moved.

Dave's SBE met an untimely end at the hands/claws of Bill's SBE, Ramos, the Totem and Swarm.

Perdita moved out to the front of the Ortega line...risky, and was just barely out of range to bullet bend a 'Hello' to Ramos, around an ice Pillar.

Turn 4

Bill's SBE movd into Melee with Perdita...Hit once for 5,and then missed every other time. That Def 8 is amazing! I also pulled several 11-13s, used 3 Stones and got some lucky draws... She took another point from one of Raspy's spells, and another from something exploding nearby. Cerberus killed the Enslaved Nephilim Totem, but took 2 from the Black Blood (Ha!) Ramos made some Spiders out of spare parts...

Turn 5

I knew that winning the Initiative was crucial...and (Of course) I drew 3rd... :|

Dave goes, tries to blow up poor 1 Wound Perdita...fails (Draw the Black Joker, Ha again!) Bill goes...and fails to kill Perdita... who then activates, blows the SPA Swarm to ...Er, if we are already stuck in Malifaux, then blowing something to Hell...Anyways, she smokes it.

Cerberus grabs the Treasure, high-tails it, Francisco tries to move around an intervening hill to catch /kill it.

Ramos and Rasputina snipe at each other. One of the Spider-Thingies finishes the Cerberus(Not sure which one, happened when I was in the...er, getting a soda...Ahem). They REALLY should have tried to kill Perdita with some Extreme Prejudice...

Turn 6

I win the Initiative, finally...

Perdita pops off a shot, smoking Rasputina, then moves double time back to her DZ. Ramos summons another Spider... Francisco and Santiago blast two of them for fun.

Game Ends

Me: 7VP

Dave: 2 VP

Bill: 2 VP

Dark Omens was in effect for most of the game, with comical consequences for us, me in particular, when I forgot, keeping 2 13s in hand, instead of fishing with Hero's Gamble.

I had never played the Ortegas before, lots of little things to remember. I like them, though. I've only played 2 full games now (Lilith in the other game), and am now 3-0, since we counted this as 2 games, for bragging rights. Sure felt like I was facing an army, with SBExes and Cerberus Sabertooths trying to make lunch out of me.

In the end, it was back to the Casa, with poor Nino on a funeral bier, for enchiladas, cervezas and Papa Loco's special Agave margaritas.

-Uriel

W carried her Ice Golem back to cool down our sweet tea... (Zoraida was having a 'Social' for all of the Bog Gremlins).

-Uriel

I didn't notice that, but on the subject of the WarPig...

I used a bit of green putty and made sure that mine was obviously a Boar... *ahem*.

-Uriel

I wasn't sure where this belonged, so I put it here.

What are the rules on using Proxies in Tournaments? From other games, I have usually seen that they are OK, as long as they are from the same company, etc...

As far as using minis from other companies, however...

I must say that I will be using (In non-official Wyrd events) a stand-in for the Governor Totem, mainly because there is a wonderful Cadwallon mini with a quill and long scroll, tophat and coat, that I have been wanting to use forever... That isn't an issue,though.

Is it (In Official Events) OK to use bits of figs from other companies in/on my minis and terrain? Most notably, I have a LOT of creepy little voodoo dollies from my Confrontation Mid-Nor, and I thought about scattering them around the bayou terrain that I want to make (Zoraida's Eyes are everywhere...), as well as possibly putting them on some bases etc...

-Uriel

Can't he be part of a mixed force in the Brawl Level of encounter. I know that he can only have Gremlins and Piggies at Scrap level...

Oh, I also have Taelor (Minus Card) from a couple of Gencons back, when I bought her for a NPC in an RPG I was running.

-Uriel

Now according to my research* a Jackalope is a mythical creature from North American folklore that is a Jackrabbit with antlers.

Jackleope is to the US, as Dropbears are to Aus... *Grin*

-Uriel

I once had some figs primed black...then decided that I wanted them with a White base instead. However, the White was almost out, so it came out really spotty and almost like a mist over the black.

The main figs was a ship for the Pirates! game, and it instantly became my Ghost Sloop... People asked 'Wow, how'd you get that effect!' Hehehe...

-Uriel

Very nice, and I don't find the green hair strange at all...Of course, I have long blue hair myself.

-Uriel

Nice!

-Uriel

Ever been to Flagstaff? I've driven through there on a few occasions in Feb/March, and there is definitely snow on Cactus there.

I was gonna say...I'm originally from Arizona, and snow on cactus is pretty standard in those zones.

-Uriel

Cool, I'd hate to buy the rules, and then have a new version come out 2 months later...

-Uriel

Alliance was out of both box sets...Dammit.

Uriel

Alliance was out of both box sets...

-Uriel

Hey there,

I just ordered the book, but I am unsure as to how long it has been out. There sure does seem to be a lot of Errata (For which I am grateful, many companies just plod along with mistakes, and figure they will change things when the next Ed comes out.). My question is this... It will be some time before a new/corrected version comes out, right?
