  1. I've paid for my subscription via PayPal but I still haven't received any info on how to access and download the vids. I suspect it has something to do with the weekend, maybe I'll hear something tomorrow morning. If not ...?
  2. There are a poop ton of options. I'm also using scenic bases from Dragonforge and Armorcast. The trench plank bases from Dragonforge are perfect for Guild (imo), though I'm using them for my Ronin, Convict Gunslinger and any other western-ish minis I stumble across. Armorcast has a set of awesome broken tile 30mm bases that may as well be sculpted for Dr. Doug and his crew.
  3. I like the bleed. It offers players the opportunity to purchase, paint and play with figs outside of their chosen faction(s). I support the MOAR MINIS initiative. :thumb:
  4. I gotta assume there will be some sort of official announcement when v2 cards become widely available. It's kind of a big deal.
  5. It would make thematic and logical sense that a flying model is exempt from disengaging strikes while passing overhead, a floating model is not. Seems a floating model merely hovers (maybe a few feet) off the ground, allowing it to ignore terrain, otherwise forcing it to deal with nearby enemies wanting to take a swipe. Of course, flight and float would be a non-issue when attempting to leave melee range from ground level, which would trigger a disengage strike as per normal. I would think flying models would be exempt from any effect or trigger that require it to be within melee range or a specific radius, at least while passing overhead and not assumed to have landed (between activations, for instance). There's no source to cite, it just seems right. In the absence of an official ruling, I tend to err on the side of logic (with my fellow players agreement, of course).
  6. Thanks for this, pigi. You've provided a great start on a complex tactica, you really hit the ground running. I have nothing to add as my Karai is still boxed up, but it sure is nice to have someone blunt the learning curve. :thumb:
  7. It is a lot, yeah. I waited until I was ready to order something worth the shipping cost and tacked on a new Flesh Golem card for a "free" ride. Definitely not ideal, I realize ... though it IS an excuse to order more minis. :nod:
  8. Thanks y'all. It's no skin off my nose but it was driving my friend around the bend. He kept me on the phone for nearly forty-five minutes, insisting I pour over pics using Google image search. Obsess, much? :
  9. Oooooh. Huh. Does no one use it? I can't seem to find a single pic of Papa with a stick o' TNT clenched in his teeth ...
  10. Hello all. So, buddy of mine recently got down with Malifaux and choose the Ortega family as his first crew. Upon receiving his box, he ripped it open and played a few games with his figs (unassembled, stuck to the bases with blue tack; very classy). Now well into clean-up and assembly, he finds he's left with a tiny, cylindrical piece with a goove. I assume it's some tiny part of Papa Loco, but we cannot for the life of us locate it in any of the pics online or in the documentation. Anyone out there with Perdita's crew have a clue what the stink this tiny piece is? I don't have a pic of it, I'm hoping someone might know what I'm talking about ... :confused:
  11. Whoa Nelly, awesome. The Bete Noir smiley is aces! Gotta agree. Once the menagerie exceeds a single row, it's too big ... or am I just jealous? Hrm.
  12. EricJ and/or Nathan mentioned that there will be a trade-in program for V2 cards; simply send in a stack of V1 cards and you'll receive V2 stuff on a 1-to-1 basis for free. Pretty sweet deal if you can stand being without stat cards for a week or so. No word on exactly when this will happen, though.
  13. I use Wyrd bases to tie together specific models within a crew, such as the graveyard bases for Nico's crew (Nico himself, Mort, vulture, his mindless zombies). I use resin flagstone bases from Fenris Games for the rest of my Res models, for minis that play well across multiple crews and aren't otherwise thematically or mechanically tied to a specific master. I love 'em. I hope Wyrd creates new bases to support some of the more outlandish crews in Book 2.
  14. This thread clears up the Slow To Die vs. Paralyze issue thanks to BugKing's detailed timing sequence. Short version: Paralyze wins, Slow to Die fails.
  15. Great work. The second gremlin from the top reminds me of the Mangalores from 5th element (if he were smiling).
  16. My thought exactly. Nico will be pleased. Time to update mah sig!
  17. Awesome. I recently divvied up purchases between my FLGS and Wyrd (Miss Pack!), time to save a few bucks on a Leve box. Nice find.
  18. They do sell the stat cards, yes. But your original post indicated you didn't want to buy them. I'm certain there are no-good-nicks out there distributing "pirated" PDFs and illicit photocopies, but they're dick deep in honest to God copyright infringement.
  19. Turns out LCB coated w/ sKeTCH blood costs a mint on eBay. /sad face
  20. Awesome. I think we, as a faction, have some of the best totems in the game. McM's chihuahua is an auto-include, I simply add 1ss to his cost and consider them a mated pair (eww). Nico's vulture is something I'd be remiss to ignore. I don't play Seamus, though I suppose his copycat is less important (though definitely nice to have). On paper, it looks like Karai's lost love right up there with the doctor's puppy. Lucky us!
  21. I can also confirm that order #3251 is "Complete" as of early last night, though I have not yet received an official shipping confirmation. I do live in Canada though, so it might be different with USPS Airmail. Wyrd's whippin' through the orders!
  22. I focus on a specific faction. If I didn't force a specialization on myself, I'd be homeless, living under a pile of Wyrd miniatures. I do own every Resurrectionist model currently available, even goofy Seamus (though he's not included amongst the Masters I play, I really don't care for his model; I wish I did, I love his fluff and his stat card). That said, I may end up dabbling in the Outcast faction down the road, if only to avoid being totally predictable when building a crew. I already own several mercs who could use the company.
