What is Paper-clay? this intrigues me because i know GS is expensive. a large tube is $18 and its less than a pound. i have heard of Milliput i havn't priced it but a very cheap alternative would be pretty sweet.

I am A Warmachine Khador player and this seems amazing for some generic Brick Basing if i want to theme a unit or army. have to have my FLGS order some Milliput...

I was Seriously thinking "Macguyver" as i read your list of Bits for the Beam pump lol. outside of that this board is looking amazing xD makes me wish i was in Ireland so i could play on this board once finished xD i wanna Play on Yazza's board to xD

Outcasts Crew - 35 - Scrap Som'er Teeth Jones -- 0 Pool 2 Giant Mosquitos [4ss] Bayou Gremlin [2ss] Bayou Gremlin [2ss] Gremlin Taxidermist [6ss] Hog Whisperer [5ss] Slop Hauler [4ss] Piglet [3ss] Piglet [3ss] Piglet [3ss] Piglet [3ss] i had figured that the Warpig would be usefull... and you say not. seeing as how you know more about Gremlins ill take your word for it xD since the Hog Whisperer comes with a piglet, i figured toss all four pigs in there. slop haulers come in boxes of 2. so higher numbered lists would see them both. I am also considering a Gremlin Swarm style army. probly with Ophelia. still working on my Arcanist lists so outcasts probly wont be till begining of 2012.

also there is this as well. Outcasts Crew - 35 - Scrap Som'er Teeth Jones -- 0 Pool Hog Whisperer [5ss] Hog Whisperer [5ss] Warpig [8ss] Piglet [3ss] Piglet [3ss] Piglet [3ss] Slop Hauler [4ss] Slop Hauler [4ss] not sure if they are useful or not but the Pigapult and Slop hauler would make this a little more entertaining. however not sure what the Slop Hauler does. i can guess on the Pigapult xD

so, i was looking at getting a list of Gremlins together mainly just for the fun factor that can come with em. this is what i have thus far as a list. Outcasts Crew - 35 - Scrap Som'er Teeth Jones -- 2 Pool 3 Giant Mosquitos [6ss] Hog Whisperer [5ss] Hog Whisperer [5ss] Piglet [3ss] Piglet [3ss] Piglet [3ss] Warpig [8ss] position the Hog Whispers and once i get close enough let the Pigs Stampede XD Som'er heading it up with his Masquitos. i could drop the masquitos for another piglet and a Hog Whisperer or another Warpig. however the masquitos just seem to good. Thoughts? anyone else think gremlins are fun?

Its kinda Pertnant to knwo the difference. i am pretty sure the list i have is going to be full of Assets. they are still Special Forces. but if Johan is going to not get his bonuses off my crew members like i thought i will swap him out for Totem options and Avatar... having 4 SS available to play with Totems i can get better totems that may fit my style and crew better then the BA... i would like to run a Toolkit or maybe even the Student of Conflict.

Fun Times

I understand how good she is and what you can do with Alyce. the miscommunication is, her main ability to make swarms epic is useless. the list i will be using primarily is the one above. i wont be using the Swarms and their tactics. my main list runs pretty much just new models. i wanna grab Johan because of the synergy with my all Special Forces list. since he is a MS&U Asset and he is buffed by being in 3" of other Special Forces, i favor him over Alyce for this list. i am still getting Alyce for when i want to play the swarms.

Some food for thought. this is my potential list onc ethe new models come out is as follows... Arcanists Crew - 35 - Scrap Ramos -- 4 Pool Gunsmith [6ss] Large Steampunk Arachnid [5ss] Soulstone Miner [6ss] Rusty Alyce [10ss] Soulstone Miner [6ss] now after looking at this, i have a Special Forces list. leavign the remaining 2SS for Avatar or BA. i don't actually like Rusty Alyce, i am looking at her V2 card and she will have next to no synergy. i would rather go without reactivate if it means saving my models. the idea of loosing all but 1 wd is very not what i want. if i used the Swarm tricks it wouldnt be bad. Reactivate on a Spider, they end up swarming so my 9hp swarm comes into play with 2wd i am cool with that. but with my new list Rusty alyce is an expensive model with no synergy. so i want to change up the list and go with the Renegade Steamfitter Johan. he will be really nice. since every model would then be M&SU Assets he would always get his +2Cb so long as he is within 3" of my models. so with that said heres the new list. Arcanists Crew - 35 - Scrap Ramos -- 2 Pool Gunsmith [6ss] Gunsmith [6ss] Large Steampunk Arachnid [5ss] Soulstone Miner [6ss] Renegade Steamfitter Johan [6ss] Soulstone Miner [6ss] i went 2 Gunsmiths since i am a little shy on ranged. Johan is a hybrid but more melee, so having another shooty in a melee heavy list will give me a decent balance. i considered 2 LSAs but 1 is fine for now. once the Union Miner comes out i may run a duet of them with BA and Avatar; or trips.

thats fluffily delicious. i like playing the GodFather... AKA Ramos. he heads up the M&SU and its just a front for his criminal activities against the Guild. in other words, M&SU is the mob and that makes Ramos the God Father lol.

actually thats what i have. i DLed the Rules Manual Flat from Malifaux.com and i have the flat at home from here. i understand the hiring system now. i was trying to apply the max starting pool as a basis for the hiring. essentially making it 2 numbers that track crew sizes. now that i have read more and understand that the maximum SS is only whats left over from Crew size and the cache. in other words unless your doing it on purpose your generally going to have 1-2 over your Master's Cache. i generally try to be as close to the crew isze as possible so my Pool will generally be Master Cache xD i also don't use SS very often, my master is the only model capable of using SS and since i am not in combat i am not needing to use SS.

i realized yesturday we were incorrectly calculating SS Pool. when i started playing witht he crew builder on Malifaux.com i have Ramos Box + BA + xtra swarm. i have on order 1 more swarm Rusty Alyce and the Creation model. i have been proxying the Creation with my Khador War Dog xD out of the 3 swarms i have 1 of them is individual spiders other 2 are swarmed. the new swarm i get in the mail will be individual spiders. i will be getting the newer book 3 items once i can. mainly the LSA, SS Miners, and Gunsmiths. i believe i saw somewhere that Kaeris has the Gunsmiths and Fire Gamin. so i intend on getting her box, that way i have a different master to mix things up a bit. after that is the miners and LSAs. might grab an Essence of Power to link to Kaeris. anyways, i am reading the pdf for Book two so i understand what is SUPPOSED to be done. after i am done with the encounters section i will post further questions here xD

i plan on getting Coryphees, i think they would be great Against a Dreamer Alps bomb list. the (+) to Df and Wp defense flips is really nice. the sheer movment capabilities would be pro as well. i could take out his Alps fast. so they are definate future additions in case i play the Alps Bomb and i may throw them in occaisionally if i need movement for my objectives. i don't like trying to play a Strat involving the BA because a CC of 16 is stupid hard when your CA is 5Tomes. i literally need a 10Tomes to successfully cast the ability. as cool as it is and the fact i can potentially get it off a few times is cool. but unless i am holding the 10 of Tomes in my hand plus what i need for the rest of the Strat. not including cheating so i can beat my opponent. Toolkit may be part of my next Malifaux order. EDIT: I am currently reading Book 2 Encounter rules so i can get them commited and be able to play the game correctly. we also hire completely wrong. a SS Pool of 10 and 11 i believe is very inaccurate. When Hiring its 1SS per model Correct? excluding masters.

to add more to the The information. i intend on running a Special Forces heavy list, Ramos is not limited to only 2 special Forces, once the Gunsmith, LSAs and SS Miners hit the markets ill be purchasing them. i will probly get a Kaeris Box, it will have 2 Gunsmiths, and i think the SS Miners, so there is no reason not to. ill have a second Master and the models i want =] if you havn't guessed i like the Construct aspect of the Game. What Guild Constructs can Ramos field? i read somewhere where he can field some Gild Constructs. if they are useful i may pick them up to expand my options...
