I need the full compliment of Yan Lo cards.

I have the wave 1 Guild and Outcast decks.

A friend of mine said he wants to put down just a plastic base and call it the nothing beast in it's true form

Awesome.

Not I, at any rate. Tara was fun to play against at GenCon, though.

Because no one knew how to play her yet

Haha, I've played Ressers since the first time Malifaux was at GenCon.

I'm not quitting now because they're popular. I'm banking on Guild getting more people in the 2nd wave due to Lucius.

I also think the solo scenario can be fun if you're bored and just want to flip some cards.

She can tank pretty well. I've gotten some good use out of her. She's not the best thing we have, obviously, but I wouldn't say she's useless.

Then don't do it, doesn't matter to me. It works for the time being, probably not when people get used to it. You don't score Sand until turn 2, but you can use your first turn AP to set it up. Unless you're playing against Guild, there isn't a ton that gets rid of the Scheme markers.

I don't believe Nico's dog swarm is unstoppable, and to be honest, I don't like Canine Remains as much as Necropunks. I've mostly been winning with Nicodem by taking three Punks, two belles, and pulling whatever their biggest threat is across the table by at LEAST turn 2 (Sometimes Turn 1) and flurrying it to death.

But, it worked with the boards they had set up there. That's all I'm saying.

Valedictorian can be decent at things like Table Quarters with Nicodem, where Morti would be too slow.

Other than that, ya.

I think he looks way better now though sculpt is really way more badass

That is true of the original, but I like my alternate the best.

As for belles, the one who is leaning forward is probably my favorite now. But I gave her one of the old parasols, as the new ones look too small/lame. It looks pretty good. I use her mixed with original belles.

I would like to point out, don't look as Ressers at a "Summoning" faction. Consider them a faction who CAN summon.

You'll win more games that way. I've watched a lot of new Resser players either quit the faction or the game because they get too caught up him making models, then losing terribly on Strategies/schemes. Especially in 2.0.

Note that doesn't count for Doug, because summoning as you kill is MAD SCIENCERY

Haha, Finecast. My friend had a Necron something or other with a staff. He put it together then sat it down on a table. Within 10 minutes, the staff collapsed under it's own weight and snapped. It wasn't where any glue was, either.

I do enjoy painting metal better, because of the textures. Other than painting, I like plastic.

It is indeed a word

Belles are about the same height. They are a lot more slender, however. Their parasols are MUCH smaller.

In fact, I took a metal parasol (minus the shaft) and put it on the belle who is leaning forward slightly. It looks much better, and doesn't seem out of place, or on a different scale.

I'm sure there will be. I plan to mix all sorts of models.

I didn't have a problem with the arm itself. The hand seems large because she has some sort of power glove-esque/gem thing on top of it. It looked kind of weird to me as well, until I painted it.

The Ronin I had the most trouble with was the kneeling one. Her head seemed too big to fit under her arms in the way it's depicted. I had to do some tinkering to get it to fit.

Playstyle will probably change, but the Japanese Horror Movie theme will stay.

All normal, painted zombified.

My only complaint is that Death Marshalls die too easily. I knew this in the Beta, but didn't care at the time.

OH CRUEL TWIST OF FATE, THY NAME IS FARNSWORTH!

The hatless Death Marshall also seems to be about 50% larger than the other two. Just look at his peacebringer in comparison to the others.

Personally I would've liked to be the new scale to be that size across the board, it looks pretty cool. (And easier on my eyes to paint)

I wouldn't mind Dadsue-ba, if they make it so she can actually accomplish something without every trigger in the game.

Ya, most of mine are going to be on cobblestone bases from every line I can get a hold of.

Having the same 5 bases from Wyrd on every Resser model would be lame, and expensive. Luckily, cobblestone works with most Resser models, sans possibly Yan Lo and crew. But you can still make a case for it.

Such as: Izamu ran into town to grab some in 'n out.

I didn't read the entire thread as I'm late to the party, but Nicodem can sack any friendly undead model now for Zombie Fodder, not just Mindless zombies.

It helped me stay alive at GenCon during a "dirty" Vic charge trick.

Wretches or dogs. They live about the same amount of time.

Have fun.

I started to do something like this about a month before GenCon, and I'm having a good time with it. Although I'm only doing Ressers, and Perdita's crew. Your ideas for multiple faction basing sounds frustrating, but I'll be interested to see how it comes out.

I don't understand the complaints of the layout.

You read the words in the book to understand the new rules. Every time after that, you reference the beginning of the book to set up a game, where there is no blank space. There is really no reason to ever go past page 91 after you've read through the rest once.

(I really want a new small rulebook)

((And an updated version of the Malifaux campaign))

Ya, these things happen with early gencon releases.

It's the same with with a lot of games, and a lot of different companies. But I'll be damned if I'm not the first to get things. I knocked over at least 10 people in that opening mad dash when the doors opened. It's really the only reason to go to gencon.
