You only have to use 50% of a Mako post to be tournament legal.

I prefer the old one, I like the blatant stage magician.

I can see why others would like the new one (and I do like the new one), but I definitely prefer the old one for that more glitzy look.

USA is bigger than Australia

Im in Ontario, eat it Texas and your claims at bigness

Hoorah for toronto

Last year they announced in August did they not?

And Eric was teasing pictures and length of the new rule book on his twitter, which suggests if they have a final page count, that its going to be at Gencon. And if they have art and rules finished, it would stand to reason arsenal decks will be there too.

Additional question to the above: What kind of terrain was it?

If its 50% buildings and walls, thats an unfair terrain set-up to rasputina; who need LoS. The terrain should be an even mix of open/blocking/dense so it doesnt favour melee OR ranged

Wyrd never announces stuff that will be for sale at gencon anymore until they are 100% sure it  will really be able to be there. This is not a new or worrying thing.

As for new stuff, there's a pile of new masters (bring on IRONSIDES) as well a scattering of new models outside of the crew boxes. But with essentially the entire back catalog ACTING as new models for the purposes of testing and designing for plastic, I suppose there hasn't been a lot of wiggle room to add that much more without making Devs cry tears of blood trying to balance it all.

As for the Wave 3 split. We needed. Oh god, I had been doing nothing but play Malifaux and post bat reps for over a year. We were burned out. We didnt want to do it anymore. That is not a good testing environment, so we take a break, we get our shiny new Arsenal decks at Gencon (assumedly, since the book is coming out then) and then yes, I will want to figure out how to make Avatars work along with everyone else again.

The whole switchover has been/is tough, but we've been getting monthly FAQ/Errata updates from Justin, we get new releases (when they arent delayed by evil happenstance) I wouldnt call it no updates. I would call it sticking to Wyrd's normal policy of "we'll tell you when theres a change" for better or worse.

Malifaux has been picking up steam here in Toronto and I am still trying to figure the new and interesting combos I think I can wring out of 2nd edition.

I feel Coppellius is on that dangerous line where you can start thinking of really good combos for him, but end of the day you're thinking of combos for him and other models, not your master. The things that he brings to the table work much better in a Dreamer crew IMO, as opposed to Widow, who's benefits to Collodi are right up front.

By all means take him if you want, Myth points out some really great tactics for him above, but Collodi doesnt really gain any particular benefit from him that benefits him more than anyone else.

Wrong side of Canada for me!

If you can get a barrel or crate model just attach it to a pool of tinted water effect (Black oil, green acid, orange you dont want to know). Makes good scatter

I have a bunch of stonebros still. Im looking forward to one day figuring out how to play. Maybe with that new warcasterlock guy with the giant base and stone synergy? That guy.

I think I prefer the old effigies for looking more puppety, but the new ones are certainly interesting looking.

Awesome work!

With the way victims get dumped into the sewers I wouldnt be surprised if they wound up as crooked man...s

Please invent a word for how excited you are

Just in time for Gencon too!

Bumped out a quick Beckoners

There you go

Done

Hey I pledged a crapton,(note the secret level art asset) am not in a situation where that money isnt felt. And yup I am still waiting patiently. I think there could have been more communication sure,  but most people I know who backed it are in the same boat: waiting, wanting it soon, but not throwing out the RAWRWYRDDEVILS vitriol that seems to be taking center stage

Eh, the internet lens is weird. You get 20 people yelling loudly, it seems like everyone is mad, but you've got 1500 backers, so a lot of those are just sitting back and waiting.

Either way, happy that these forums can soon be more about the gameplay than the game itself soon
