  1. Seconded! I think we need to have a peaceable sit down with some canned fruit.

    There's no doubt a problem and discussing the matter is the only way that Wyrd will now our views. I think they might take a page out of the privateer press playbook and let the players field test any changes. For those of you unfamiliar with how this went down when privateer decided to improve warmachine they put out field test rules for the players then listened to feedback from the players about what needed to be done. It was an unprecedented move and to be honest made warmachine mkII a much improved version.

    The thing that's really killing me is that we're even at each other's throats.

    Qi, Lalo, there's no animosity between us, and yet we're verge of squabbling over an attempt to improve Malifaux. Something everyone in this thread no doubt wants.

  2. That's the problem with a lot of these rulings. They're counter intuitive and not easy to understand the reasoning so everytime it comes up the person who has actually read the official version will sound like they're clutching at straws.

    I feel your pain. Seems everytime I play something comes up that just seems wrong or lackluster. Maybe it's just me but something just doesn't click sometimes. I love the game setting and mechanics but sometimes things just don't feel right. Does this make any sense?

  3. I haven't seen the book yet so fill me in. What as Mctavish?

    After diving into the new book: Twisting Fates, I found myself drawn to the new characters in Malifaux even more now then before. My anticipation for these characters (Exorcist, Rafkin, the Embalmer, Fire Gamin, Spawn Mother & Gupps, Lenny & Sue) to be made into miniatures is at an all time high...to the point that I'm thinking of...well, nothing else! But the one I want in miniature form now more than the rest would be McTavish!!!

    P.S. If anybody knows when he will be released please let me know ;)

  4. Outcasts probably suffer from this worse than most.

    And as much as I hate to say it... Maybe Malifaux just isn't the right game for you at that point. Sometimes, games just are what they are - if I went into Warmachine with a dislike of big, named heroes and asked what I could do to be competitive without using a warcaster, the response would not be accommodating to my particular needs.

    If you really don't like anything other than Som'er - the Viks, Von Schill, Ophelia - then you're certainly going to be facing an uphill climb. There really isn't any other good answer.

    Well I appreciate your honesty about the matter and not trying convince me Somer can do it all or something like that. Lol. I'm not ready to jump ship. I still like the game a lot and realize every system has some growing pains. I do have Ophelia who fills in a lot of gaps and the Vikis look interesting. I was just voicing an opinion about what bugged me about the game. I also realize too that as the game grows it is likely that models will be made to fill gaps in for all masters so you can play your favorite master regardless of the scenario.

  5. I think it would ultimatly come down to what you "like" (being very subjective here) and what you feel like buying in regards to having a balanced faction of represenitive models. How you play is going to vary greatly in how wide a representation of model figures for a faction.

    I'm not sure what you like will hold up in a competitive atmosphere. I like the Gremlins specifically Somer Teeth alot and let's face it he has some terrible matchups. I'm not interested in Leveticus or Hamelin in the least so what am I to do besides take my beatings?

  6. To me, that's part of the issue. I have zero interest in lugging the entire Guild (or any other faction) to a tournament. Especially not when I find 50% of my chosen faction's Masters, and its Henchman, brutally unfun to play. That the game assumes you have the resources and the desire to play each Master is not a feature to me. It's a bug.

    I have to agree with Jonas on this one. I shouldn't have to buy a whole faction to have all the scenarios covered.

  7. Ok here goes. First let me say I am a long time miniatures game player. Having played warhammer fantasy, 40k, chainmail, d&d minis, star wars, warmachine, and many more I am a quite experienced gamer. I like a lot about Malifaux and the setting and miniatures are incredible. The card mechanics with the fate deck and control hand are great and the uniqueness of each model is also very alluring. I agree the game does not need to be dumbed down. My issue with the game is hard to explain. I've only been playing on and off for about a year (more off than on to be honest) but there is something that just doesn't feel right. I often find myself feeling less than satisfied with my game play whether I win or lose. When I lose I can often look back and see things I should have done differently but when I win I often feel like I did so through less than fair means. I out summoned my opponent by so much they had no chance or I used some no resistable ability to damage my opponent over and over or something like that. I like the game tremendously and I was just wondering if this is just me or if others are having these same issues. Thanks for your input.

  8. I have a few warmachine/hordes armies that I am going to thin out. I am putting list up for cryx, circle and mercs right now and will be updating the list with menoth later today.
