  1. How about a raft like that old Huck Finn one made out of Balsa wood?
  2. Reaper has a couple of good models to throw in there that will do you well. Look for the evil toy blister or the "Familiers" one. There is a little Kewpie doll with a straight razor in there, somewhere, as well as the little baby Cthuhlu that would be a great addition to the hags mix of fun little guys.
  3. In movies like, "The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly", "The Wild Bunch", Once Upon a Time in the West", "Django", 3:10 to Yuma, There is no "Good Guy with a White Hat on". As a matter of fact, a "Good guy" doesn't exist. That was something that some tool in hollywierd came up with to sell movies. The real west was hard core, violent, and cutting edge. The "rule of law" was Winchester, Colt, and Springfield. "He who has the gold, Soulstone, or minions to push thier agenda, makes the rules." Your best bet to as close to a "Good guy" you are probibly going to find in this game might be one of those hired guns, Mercenaries, or some of those "Human" type gunslingers. We're supposed to be playing in a world of "Wild wierd west, Gothic cobblestone streets of jack the ripper, or some sort of sewer-world where everything is like a psyched out conspiracy. I play another game where the "Religious" thing is an element, and unless you are playing in a certian type of group with that sort of a sensability of depravity, you arn't going to get a large following for this sort of thing. As for your faction description, you have those elements in the already established factions. No one is good or evil..er, then the other. The factions have about as much of an equal footing then any I've seen in a game, and I think that might be what I think is the cool part about it. Other miniatures games out there all have some sort of whooooo whizz bang!! that is the be all and end all that you have to have to "Win the game!". That special H bomb model, or character that pretty much ends the game when he or she pops up on the table. In this game, I might be new, because I don't see it yet. The best thing I think is that each and every faction has something that they bring to the table, and you can play them goodie two shoes, or cold bloodedly ruthless. Cowpunk. at it's best.
  4. I picked up my next batch of stuff today. I got myself an 81.00 order from my local game shop, so I'm looking to get old goblinette. As for the trade, I'll hold off for right now, based on my getting ready for a business trip that I'm heading out on. I won't be back for some time, so I'll be taking my stuff with me. The game is top notch with what I have seen so far. I'm not sure how the two teaddy bears would work out, we'll worry about that later. Right now, I'm finishing of my Pandora team, and getting the finishing touches on Teddy bear #1.
  5. I found some of this action that might help you out as well. http://www.matakishi.com/davestown1.htm
  6. Any way of getting a comparison shot of the western buildings to the Malifaux guys? I would really like to get a couple of these and... abuse them a bit with some steampunk and gothic bits, but before I throw hard earned soulstone at them, I need a good comparison shot.
  7. Your swamp board was the one that got me interested in the game from the You-Tube film. Thats an awsome job. Is that resin? will resin mealt the styro board that you used to put the swamp together with? How do you game in the house with the chicken legs? Is there some other reinforcement to the frame? Considering that my game board is a bunch of scrap right now, I really enjoy looking at ideas that I can ...borrow.
  8. Yeah, If I can only use one, I guess I won't be needing him. I guess I have extra voodoo doll and the teddy, what have you got for trade? My next crew I bought was the resurrectionist Doc and his posse of undead samuri, and a blister of hired ronin. I still don't understand about those modern weapon sets, but seeing as I've got two crews to get up and coming to worry about, They can get some new hardware later.
  9. Those are some great kits. I have a few of thier first ones. I might have to go check out that factory set and add a few parts to some of those gothic buildings from Pegasus.
  10. Picked up Pandora's crew and a couple of teaddy Bears and a voodoo doll. Now I'm working on my second undead crew. A couple of questions- 1. What are the stats for the modern weapons sets, and how do they relate to the game? 2. Why do the guys not look like the pictures of the cartoons that are on the box? 3. Where is the map located? How about putting the map up on the site? Like the game, it has a lot of potential, and the scenery hunt is going well. So far I have a desert scene and a couple of the mean streets of some one horse town. I'm working on the buildings, and aside from some lame paper buildings, who has the right scale 32 MM western town buildings, and how much would a couple of them cost? Working on some sort of Tim Burton stuff, but the stuff is really going slow, so I need a couple of add ons, so a couple of resin buildings are not out of the question, now. Who has some good stuff that is worth the time and money?
