The only thing about 2.0 Nekima is that she'll eventually be plastic and so will actually stand under her own weight without 101 pins.

There will probably be auto includes for tournament play, but I imagine it would be a good way to change things up in casual play and hey if its works well enough it could become part of the casters arsenal.

The alternate sculpt of Levi will be Levi grasping a Oiran's leg (think alt Nicodem).

Yeah I thought of Kill Bill, but you need to learn how to paint hair because that is pretty basic right there.

Welcome to the Hotel Malifaux, such a lovely place.

No its not. If the model is under the control of the master then it is still the masters hand that is pulling the strings. However, however, however. Say you have model A and model B, model A has wicked and is standing in melee range of model B. Your opponent targets model B with Obey and has it perform a walk action. Because model B is considered the enemy while obey is in effect this triggers model A's wicked which kills model B and that is how you use obey to get Grudge.

I agree, however I do think that Machine Puppet and Obey would break the condition as these are actions performed by the Master using a proxy.

Well if the moderators are happy to change it then so be it. But really you should carefully consider the name you want to be known by because most registrations will be linked with the email address provided and if you don't want the name, but can't change it then you can't use that email in conjunction with registering a new name.

...aaaannnd this is why you shouldn't agree to name changes, unless someone slips something super offensive through the filters, but thats a different issue.

Falling then. As to your question the jumping rule just doesn't work so no one uses it. It should be free and part of the regular movement with the only stipulation is that the model can only jump half of its movement.

Scenario: a model climbs a 2" wall that is at best 1/2" wide at the top and then opts to jump down for free. Question: when the model is placed at the base of the wall is the lateral movement required to clear the wall included as movement? This is for a model with 5" movement so if the movement is included the model has moved 5" climbing and crossing the wall to jump down. If not then the model has 1" of movement left correct? If the model only had 4" movement would its move end at the top of the wall or would it get a free 1" move from jumping down?

Arcanists Crew - 35 - Scrap Colette Du Bois -- 5 Pool Cassandra, Magician's Apprentice [9ss] Coryphée [7ss] Coryphée [7ss] Oiran [5ss] Renegade Steamfitter Johan [5ss] You could try that and summon any doves you need on the way. It is a difficult decision as Johan is a heavy hitter in a crew full of medium attacks, but I also love the movement shenanigans between Cassandra and the Coryphee. In fact I would almost say theat Cassandra is a +1 with the Coryphee and if you leave one at home you should leave the other and maybe consider this build- Arcanists Crew - 35 - Scrap Colette Du Bois -- 6 Pool 2 Mechanical Doves [4ss] Gunsmith [6ss] Gunsmith [6ss] Oiran [5ss] Performer & Mannequin [6ss] Renegade Steamfitter Johan [5ss] In this build Colette isn't so fast down the board but if you spread your showgirls to the side she will have great lateral movement and you might sucker your opponent in to try and take the Performer or Oiran only to find Colette up in his grill.

Vs. Perdita - buy some terrain. Vs. Lady J - steer clear of her, lure her away from your main crew with a juicy target, shoot at her alot or just dogpile her and hope for the best.

Its just chips of flint or shale. You could probably get a cheap bag of the stuff from a landscaping company. For the price of few pieces from a hobby store you could probably get 20 kilos or more.

I think against grow lists you have to be prepared to just go in there and kick ass and take names. That or just concentrate on completing all your schemes and maybe even the strategy while he is still growing the Nephlim. I think Colette is fine to take on a grow list as she has the speed to get in there and can potentially mannequin any mature nephlim. Just remember to take Johan so that when the mannequin swap fails you can unbury it next to Johan for him to flurry on. You could even use Disappearing Act to pull apart the grow cluster by removing a key component to the opposite side of the board.

Sonnia's is a pretty dangerous Master, you don't need to have CA of 7 to be scared of her and just about everyone casts some spell or another so her counterspell never goes to waste.

These are quite nicely painted, but unfortunately the effect is ruined by what appears to be some pretty obvious mold lines. Do you use jewelers files and sandpaper to prepare your miniatures before you paint?

Wouldn't the Strongarm give everyone soft cover or does it depend on the angle or does it discriminate between friend and foe?

I really like what you have done with Misaki, I really don't like her "looking for contact style" and turning that pose on its side makes it so much better. I don't like the dice on Lynch though You should have used smaller ones or maybe not at all. Also you need to add a stroke of flesh under his eyes so he doesn't look so surprised.

I think it would work better if you couldn't tool up your crew as you choose. Instead of requisition you could say its the black market. Draw the artifact cards and then form another deck have 52 items associated with each value and suit with the Black Joker equaling Ripped off! - lose a random barter card and Red Joker equaling Bargain! -draw again and get half off the script and Barter card rounding down. The number of cards you get to draw from the black market equals the number of crew that survived until the end of the game.

The bulk of the armour is in the boiler. He really is a freakishly tall guy, so much so I wonder if he is actually human under that mask.

What about a spell that does damage? Can the target get armour from hard cover? If the spell has is it a negative flip to cast it on a model in cover?

So my group gave the campaign rules a whirl yesterday and already the system is looking kind of rickety. 1. It might be a 1 in 52 chance but if your Master is injured and then flips the Red Joker then that crew is done. Because no one will want to play that crew. 2. If you are going to run the campaign it has to be in a relatively large group or else the gameplay will get pretty stale. Scratch that. Playing the same crew over and over again is something I find less than exciting. 3. The "finish off" move must not be cheatable as this will just upset some people and encourage retaliatory reciprocation. 4. If your crew has only 4 models due to injury you could run one model forward to take an artifact, maybe even two, sacrifice/kill another and then declare your withdrawing at the start of the next turn. Possibly preventing your opponent from getting any extra artifacts if they aren't expecting this. Essentially gaming the system if you have been saving guild script. After two games my crew had a Ronin with Black blood and flight from the deal with the Devil and -2 wp and the Convict Gunslinger with Moonshine (reckless) and ranged expert. Overpowered much? What has been your experience with the campaign so far?

It seems that a Gaki is more like a ghoul than a spirit, so you could use the Games Workshop ghouls and sculpt a bulging stomach.

Well I'm in Australia, but I'm not sure about using Vassal.
