  1. Really, a different teddy for each faction? BTW, when will we get The Hooded Rider, Teddy, Sword Mistress Viktoria and the other figures? Hmmm.
  2. Better measure twice than attempt to cut twice, as the mangled saying goes, Eric
  3. Collodi looks a bit weird, that orange hair sure is bright! I'd photoshop him as a Tyger, Tyger, Burning Bright, if I photoshopped things Nix! Nix! Erm, Bete Noir. Ashes and Dust
  4. Link or it didn't happen? In other words, new job, tired all the time, yadda yadda
  5. Ratty, are you serious? That looks almost like an official puppet!
  6. 1. Vote: i: Nix. ii: Bette Noir. iii: Jackdaw 2. Kaeris is ace. 3. Little Teddy is so cute! I mean, I really love that icon
  7. 1. Ratty, I'm pretty sure it always worked this way. 2. Nibbly, I'd have it be the old rules till everyone has the chance to get the new book and digest it.
  8. Hoffman can't hire those models on his own. This doesn't mean they can't be included in brawls he's part of.
  9. They showed it to me when I was in the states, but it was too expensive so I didn't get one And well, luggage room... Also, most of us get our brains for free, which is worse!
  10. For my brother it was Bert, from Sesamy Street. He liked it so much, that when it was too torn and had to be thrown away, we had to ask someone who was going to the USA to get him another one... Mine were an elephant, at my grandparents', and at my own house, a teddy-bear wearing overalls and a dalmatian from 101 Dalmatians. I'll try to take photos, but unlikely before Sunday.
  11. I always thought it was more like Fairies, seelie and unseelie. He is a high-fairy, so while he's still a "Goblin", he does not look the same. But of course, the issue of glamours does play part.
  12. Remember, Under-appreciated is NOT the same as "Doesn't get playtime". If you agree the model truly is crappy (Malifaux Child), then it's not what asked about. What is asked about is models who don't get the love that they deserve.
  13. Might be worth editing the thread title or the first post to show it's already been concluded
  14. Or a more charitable explanation, they did not read the whole thread before hitting reply and their votes. After all, it's a poll, not a discussion thread
  15. The Gremlins were either spawned by Zoraida, or were cursed to become Goblins by Zoraida, or well, they're part of the ur-Natives. I feel that those who lived in Malifaux before were more or less humans, and they changed, through the Tyrants' actions, through their own advanced science, and through the opening of the gateway to the other dimension they opened to kick out the Tyrants. You know what I thought of when I read about the prehistory of Malifaux? The pre-history of The Wheel of Time series, about the technology based society they had before they opened the Bore. Also, Gene Wolfe, etc.
  16. I LOVE this Nekima! How do people get the Watermark off to use it in Avatars, BTW?
  17. Cats Laughing, Dreamer and Chompy Bits appear in the deck And guess my vote in the other thread was not needed, heh, as the votes were already tallied Illustrange, I really like the puppet drawings. Really
  18. I just hit print preview, and was surprised, heh. Might be good to add a button saying "print" or "print preview" that'd lead to that page, if possible.
  19. Just remember to use the melee expert attacks from Cereberus first versus Lady J, cause if she repostes, it'll hurt.
  20. Let's keep this thread to new rules/changes, and discussions of things that didn't change should go to other threads
  21. So, someone with the rules manual feeling up to starting a thread listing all the major changes? Like with the V2 cards, it'd help a lot, since otherwise people will assume things still exist since they remember them from somewhere else.
  22. I think the pace of the stories and their scope is too... stunted. I actually wish we had more Chronicles downloads, to both have room for the characters, and the stories, breathe. I mean, both books together don't describe nearly enough characters, certainly not in a manner that allows to paint their personalities in more than the broadest strokes (2 paragraphs, honestly, and very "broad"). The books, on the same token, describe what, a period of roughly 1 month, 5 weeks, together? It feels a bit weird, as after I finished reading the first book's fluff I felt we were just beginning - and not the journey in the world, but the first chapter of the book. The events are too compressed, with not enough happening. Compare Zelazny to any of the modern "opus writers" (Jordan, Martin, etc.), he had a lot more plot in a lot less pages. Also, the "Gorgon" makes me very curious, and I'm a bit peeved at how little was actually discussed as per the above, but it feels the leit-motifs may be a bit too strong. Both appearances are tied to jewels, both have snake relations (the serpent, and the snake-hair manifestation), and both are tied to Resurrectionist women. I won't be surprised if this is not coincidental, but it still feels a bit heavy-handed, considering the amount of room it does and does not receive. I like the world, and I like the stand-alone stories that let it and the characters breathe a bit more, more.
