Note, the Malifaux crew creator has been updated to 2.0 now, so that should be of great assistance for anyone with what can be hired. http://www.malifaux.com/M2eCrew.php

Not if you're playing 2nd edition. No harm having 2 crews though!

As far as I know, the crew builder hasn't been updated for second edition yet, so ignore it. Kaeris (and the other former Henchmen) have all been upgraded to Masters now, so there's no way to play her with Rasputina any more. She is currently in Beta, so her final rules haven't been set and she doesn't appear in the M2E rulebook.

I quite like the alt sculpt Sonnia, but the new one is very nice! Maybe I'll use the Old one when I'm attaching her Avatar, and the new one with out it? I never bothered with the totem either, but I was given one for free not that long ago...

Interesting! Thanks - I'll start with that and see how I get on then - if I feel like I need another swarm, I can always pick one up then...

Damn, I was really hoping to avoid re-buying Sonnia, but everything in that box is incredibly cool looking - new Sonnia is a bad ass, and the Witchling's are awesome - hopefully I'll end up needing 6... Ramos box set is going to be a must have for me as well - I was already planning to pick him up, but in terms of content, that's much more than I was expecting - makes me less annoyed for not bothering to order enough stuff for Miss Step at Gen Con... How many Steam Arachnids would people recommend with him? Will I need more than come in the starter? McMourning is also looking cool, and I'm looking forward to running him as both Guild and Ressers, but I might wait for the additional Canine remains to become available before I pick them up (as it looks like I'll be getting multiple crew boxes this year!)

I doubt Nexus will paint such a big target anymore - its no longer the most devastating thing in the crew...

Its not entirely clear what Tyrant he's associated with at this point. Ht 2 and being a monk like Kung Fu guy suggests that like Hamlin, he's in a human like form though.

Better that they do it now, before the Wave 2 card decks are releases so they can make these fixes in them...

Agreed - nothing seems to prohibit you from doing this.

Privateer Press did exactly to the same thing with Warmachine and Hordes - Warmachine got a beta, then a release and Hordes got a beta...

Yeah, but then it isn't in your hand, ready to add insult to injury by letting you summon a Death Marshal from the corpse...

Lucius - Avatar of Bureaucracy - A giant desk covered with Paperwork - works by shutting down what you want to do in 'Red Tape'.

She is an Enforcer... I think its quite fun (and its obviously supposed to be characterful, based on the Dead of Winter story line)... That said, I tried and tried to get it to work for me in my game last night, but my deck wasn't playing ball...

October 7th is next Monday...
