  1. That and the 2 irreducible getting turned into just 2 damage. Its only the damage change that I'm miffed about, the others I think are healthy for the game
  2. Payment sent for Perry Adams/Mycroft Canner/That 2e TT muppet
  3. Just posting my pledge and others are already finishing? You fiends!! I have a varied collection of Cadmus to work on this month, with the archivist already under way ahead of a game day this weekend with the lovely @feagaur and @Strangely Brown! On paints: I have quite a few from the usual suspects - GW, Vallejo, Scale 75 and depending on the colour needed I can find something from that mix. The companies themselves seem to lack consistency in paint. I really like the Scale 75 and matte finish I get from most of their paints but the coverage on some of them..... I don't get it?! I feel like I have bought a shake-a-weight rather than a dropper bottle when using some of their colours. I have both Vallejo Game Colour and Model colour and I think I prefer the model colour as it is more de-saturated or to my eye, natural colour than game's are. But then game colour is for those more fantastical paint jobs so it makes sense. GW paints are on the whole, consistent with the exception of their pale colours (Wych flesh, White etc...) those are just awful! chalky, thick, unusable gloop! Paints that I think everyone (who isn't an NMM guru) should own - Vallejo Metal Colour. Those paints are amazing for covering metal with any undercoat. Great coverage, lovely and smooth, and can be mixed with other colours to get those different armour shades. Love them! Topic suggestion for future months - people's Favourite/Crutch paint colours. Which colours do you find you use in every paint job? Is there a certain unviersal paint that you use to highlight/mix/shade? I know I have a few I always return to!
  4. OOOHHHHH WEEEEE! Its month one and I am already limbo dancing my way under the deadline! Work sure likes to get in the way, but here are my humble offerings: Nexus and her 2 totems for 19ss! Loving the thread though, so many different styles on display 😍 and the core box is finished for a grand total of 0ss to hire 😆
  5. Hi When trying to select a new crew with Nexus One of Many as the leader the app freezes completely and I am unable to move to the hiring page. It doesn't do this for Nexus, or other masters I tried.
  6. Hi all, I got excited and finished these before January even started 😅 Starting off my year with Nexus (the Master her/itself) and the Shambling Nests to do. Trying to tie the crew together with mites and eggs, spreading the joy throughout Malifaux! Also have the rest of the keyword to paint prior to a day of gaming! With the resolution that I want to play this year with painted models only I am going to need to speed up! As for brushes, I was a W&N Series 7 person until I found cheaper alternatives, 4 Sable brushes for £12 was way kinder to my wallet than a W&N, and they hold their point really well! I'd link them here.... but I can't for the life of me remember where I bought them 🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️ They were so good I painted the models above using the size 4 brush mostly, as it held so much more paint. EDIT - And I found the brushes! http://www.creativemodels.co.uk/creative_models_1855_kolinsky_sable_brush_set_large_0_1_2_4-p-12991.html Must have bought this set in an art shop. Still will be ordering more (and returning to this post to find the link no doubt 😅)
  7. Hi all! I'm Kogan Style or Adam on the Other Side and I'm based in Oxford, England. I've been playing games for too long and jumped through the breach way back when M1e was out and loving the Pandora Battle train; before switching to Ressurs and painting the entire faction (back in the "metal" era). In 2e I switched up and played TT and painted that faction too before work got too hectic and I couldn't devote evenings to Vassal nor weekends to competitive faux. I have always been a gamer first, wanting to paint but never truly pleased with the results. I have recently rejoined 3e and the community and want to improve my painting first over winning games, taking inspiration from the likes of Trovarion Miniatures youtube channel and trying to tell a story with each miniature I paint. With that in mind I have set myself a condition that I can only play painted, and each box must be finished before cracking open the next one! Scrolling through the factions I knew I didn't want to repaint Ressurs or TT, and it was Cadmus that caught my eye (or is Cadmus using my eyes? 🤔) so its off to the Explorer Society I go! Given I paint infrequently currently, I am pledging Enforcer level this year. Looking forward to completing the challenge alongside you all.
  8. Reckon it is time to jump back in and see what's changed! Looking forward to it. Edit - and paid!
  9. You can only concentrate once per activation so you can't get 3 on the student, unless I've misunderstood something.
  10. Agree with all of this. I found it hard to articulate why I dislike this deck; but the above encapsulates it. I can only add to this by saying I feel less inclined to promote Malifaux now this exists.
  11. Shadow Emissary, Kang (situational but very useful) Charm Warders. Snipers (the usual TT stuff!). The Illuminated are great too so you don't need much more to run a very effective TT Lynch crew There is the age old argument about whether Sensei Yu is better than the Emissary, but that is a matter of playstyle I think.
  12. Is that the summon that auto ends the game and all players are ejected from the room?
  13. I believe in the situation you are describing (Stitched on One wound with Reactivate being hit by Burn Like Fire) would allow Shen to steal reactivate as the model has the condition when attacked and there is no clause to indicate timing, its part of the attack. FAQ 132 is probably closest in situation to the above. If Shen did burn like fire on a stitched with 2 wounds (reducing it to 1 and thus gaining reactivate) would Shen be able to steal reactivate? Reactivate is gained when damaging, but no timing is given for the stealing of conditions. I'm thinking general timing applies here and Shen won't gain it due to having to resolve his ability first (stealing conditions) before Stitched gains the condition. Thoughts?
  14. The Prospector requires friendly scheme markers to do all its tricks other than the push they get at the start of the activation, whereas the Raider forces enemy scheme markers out, that the Crime Boss takes advantage of. I'd drop the Prospector and add in Sensei Yu. Then have the Raider force the drop of enemy scheme markers netting some cards then have Yu mighty gust the Raider to move the raider and place the enemy scheme markers in another location, netting you more cards for the same marker! (Extra credits - then mighty gust the Crime boss) EDIT: Reading the app, it seems you could do appraise, but the range is very short (3") and potentially losing a card that you just gained from the Raider/Boss combo seems a bit of a gamble unless you are fairly certain most of the low cards have been filtered out. Try it!
  15. Hey @Franchute I think I will be; not felt the Malifaux painting bug bite after the Hamelin crew took some damage at a recent tournament. I'm still grieving.
  16. Night Terrors for Ressurs and Raptors in Arcanist (although Raptors are more useful to make friendly non-beasts into beasts for Marcus) NB have corrupted hounds and the very useful Wisps.
  17. No ability to manipulate the Initiative flip/result within the faction. Neverborn - Doppelganger Guild - Perdita (via upgrade: Fastest Draw), Doppelganger (via Lucius) Gremlins - Trixibelle Arcanist - Seize the Day upgrade for all Masters Ressur/Outcasts - Tara (via upgrade: Knowledge of Eternity) Last one is a bit of a stretch I'll grant you but in TT we have nothing.
  18. As who dares noted - LRM upgrade can only be taken if an LRM is in the crew. You want the LRM as its the cheapest (resource wise) way to get 3 cards from the Emissary's zero action. The Emissary can do it to himself but at the cost of a card (Discard a card for Focus 2, Focus for 1, then zero on himself) if you wanted to keep the crew as is. Only 2 of those schemes are scheme marker related
  19. Yes, only those four conditions are mentioned, so only those four conditions are transferable. Note that if the model has used reactivate, it still has the reactivate condition until the end of the turn so Shen Long can steal it! for completion sake: Fast - Removed when the model with Fast activates (to generate the extra AP) so Shen Long wouldn't be able to steal Fast from a model that used it prior to Shen Long activating Focus - Removed when a model declares its use with an action so Shen Long wouldn't be able to steal Focus from a model that used it prior to Shen Long activating Defensive - Stays on a model until it activates again, so Shen Long would be able to steal Defensive from a model that gained it prior to Shen Long activating Reactivate - the condition stays on the model after it reactivates, and ends at the end of the turn. Shen Long would be able to steal Reactivate either before or after the model had reactivated (and obviously, its way better to steal it before the model gets a chance to reactivate, as Shen Long ends the condition for them!)
  20. I will be rebuilding Hannah and attempting to get her painted. Failing that I think it's time I dealt with my Rat problem!
  21. Nix (8ss) and 2 Rat Catchers (12ss) completed for March painting challenge. Unfortunately Hannah the Cat Robot took a nasty fall and shattered, along with the Rat King' s Cork bases coming away from the plastic bases during a tournament has knocked the wind out of my painting sails a little.
  22. Hi David, Unfortunately I have to drop from the event. Work problems are sucking up all my time. I also think @Wohl / Mathieu is unable to attend as well.
  23. Working on my Kitteh! Trying to alternate my purple and pink/purple colours for an Alice in Wonderland look. Not successfully atm
  24. Looking great! For ideas: I would add some purple into the recesses of the robe to bring out the red more, and some brown into the beard to make the Yellow stand out as a highlight.
