  1. 8 Gigants. No more, no less... Unless it's a Tuesday, then it inexplicably takes 8.5 Gigants. Where they get half a Gigant from has yet to be adequately explained...
  2. From what @Adran's said with the rule book quote (that's deffo changed my mind for the rule), this is currently the case. So basically, hit the Cascading magic trigger, heal 1 (or 2 if you cheated a tome and SS'd the Ram), Calculate, heal 1 (or 2 if you cheated a tome), heal 1 for bonus if cheated a tome. So from all that, Maxine's healed max 7, but cheated 4 tomes and spent 3 SS... yeah, she just heals... no resources needed whatsoever... Sure if you're taking the Emissary, that healing potential goes up a lot (potentially +4 in Maxine's activation), but then you're also spending 10ss on a model that has to activate first to put up the aura and be close to Maxine. It also costs more cards if you want to TtH.
  3. I agree, but that is a possible interpretation. Especially given how confusing English can be, even for native speakers, let alone those poor, unfortunate souls that have to deal with it as a second (or more) language. Given Plaag's rhetoric on claiming it's busted, I thought that might be how it's being read. Agree with this too... Great minds and all that!
  4. Lilith in her Nephilim form would be soooo awesome! This would probably be too big, but the Dragon bursting from Shenlong in a cloud of viscera would be amazing Ivan with Mordrake coming out of his shadow? Viktoria Masamune-ing her Doppelganger's super-imposed, evil spirit when they first meet, or moments after that when her Doppelganger warns her and Vik stabs Pandora as she'd about to shank Vik in the back Living (as in not just husky bones) Jedza when she first got cursed Another cameo of young Zoraida either: finding the soulstone, going through the breach or first meeting Lilith
  5. There's a third and potentially how Plaag's reading it from his rhetoric is that you heal for every single discard from the fate deck no matter the suit as well as any configure card you cheat. My interpretation is your second one in that you heal for each configure card discarded from the fate deck and cheated.
  6. Did you print the heads? They came out really nicely. I'd probably go with 4, or possibly 1 as a second choice... 3 is too nicely combed and 2 is just Asami.
  7. Yup, you bash an Experimental friend to give them a push (hopefully with trigger) and then that model heals from Perverse Metabolism.
  8. Agree! Wall papers for all the alts would be amazing! So many of the new models haven't even had their artwork released like the content reveals had.
  9. You could probably use the Kings Empire models as Malifaux models. I'd probably take a look at Cooper, he's seems to have that 'Bri'ish' feel you're going for. Convert him to have a pith helmet and you'd be laughing! Alternative, just use Edmonton as Cooper. Hmm... Edmonton = Cooper Not sure about Totems... if you really wanted to be un-PC, Zulus? Rifle Corp = Crypsis Corp Field Intelligence/Infiltrators = Vatagi Huntsmen Dogs are fine, but use British Bulldogs! Dragoon = Rex?? Margaret Belle = Model 9 Otherwise, you could use the King's Empire to make a pretty decent Guard Keyword. Dragoon = Mounted Guard Infiltrators = Guardsmen Rifle Corps = Riflemen (duh!) Field Intelligence Corp = Sergeants South Wale Borders = Executioners Convert a Grenadeer to hold a flamethrower and you've got your desease containment unit The harder ones are probably Dashel, Dispater and Queeg... for the totem, you could give one of the Field Intel guys a vox caster or something For Dashel, you could just use the real ones (give them a safari hat/red baret and different name if you want...), or Thrace (I know she's Guild, but I'm pretty sure she's a Brit) For Queeg, I'd probably just stick to the current model. He works as is. As an aside, honestly though, have you actually read the fluff? There's a good reason that the King's Empire is Earthside. There'd need to be a decent retcon to bring in an entire British Faction. They booted the Guild out, the Guild control the Breach, it doesn't take a genius to understand why the Guild haven't rolled out the red carpet This is why the King's Empire has such strong ties with the Arcanists smuggling them back soulstones The Breach is on the other side of the world The Brits have enough problems at home Going from accents in the Breachside Broadcast McMourning is Scottish Seamus is Irish (as are all the Fae apparently!) Nico is from the US (he mentioned having a practice in Massachusetts in the Duel of Fates story) A lot of the characters are American, which you can't exactly begrudge, considering it's an American company... I always though Kaeris was Russian... or somewhere from that area anyway As said, Dreamer, McCabe, Cooper, are Brits Hoffman is very British - he could actually be what you're looking for. Read some more of his stories for that feel. Won't help you with the full crew though, as they're mostly stompy-bots!
  10. If you're taking two Matures, is there any particular reason you're not just taking Nekima (and sub Rex for Rider/Heyreddin or whatever)? Or is it more that you're teching them in?
  11. That makes sense. A big problem I can see though is not getting unburied for at least two activations after getting buried. 33 charges, buries Titania with pinebox so gets distracted Titania activates, Tara discards Distracted to make her pass Talos goes, gives her Burning, wails on her twice Titania activates, Tara discards Burning to make her pass Nothing Beast goes, tries to give her Fast and then wails on her twice (at least Titania has Wp7) If Fast went off, repeat... Dead Titania (or most other masters really... ). At least you have 2 dg on Tara and 2 "passes" for activation control, but if it's something like Corner or standard, good luck getting to anything. Even Tara is a touch over 17" from where Titania was and she can SS and has Butterfly Jump so hard to get too much on her.
  12. Just use it as a proxy for something... He's probably bigger than Alphonse!
  13. How does 33 get 24" 1st activation turn 1? Most I can think of is Tara activates, Rewind on 33, Stutter Time to bury 33, Walk, (6"), Expedite to unbury 33 (6"), 33 charges (6"), then he Rewinds back home. Total threat range is 18"+40mm from where Tara deploys (more than enough for Flank and Wedge Deployments if they're both on the edgeline, not far enough for Standard or corner). How would OG Titania survive being kidnapped any better? If anything, Autumn Queen is about the most survivable Nb master with armour & HtW. OG Dora wouldn't be too bad once she's unburied, she can force activation order and you kind of want her in the middle of the enemy... Problem is is that Tara just wouldn't let her unbury... Tyrant-torn wouldn't be horrible if you could go first and have a Wicked Doll give her Adversary (Obliteration)... Good luck hitting her! Euripides isn't horrible being Sz4 and having the only Extended reach in Neverborn being in-keyword (Geryon)
  14. I was confused too. I think he means that you've only got 5 bonus actions to grow a pig throughout the game. I'm not sure if it's worth the price of doing all the burning tricks with Merris or Pere early game and jump through hoops to grow turn 1 when I can use it to set up my game plan with just the movement boost. Otherwise turning a Sqealer into a wild boar is fine
  15. Didn't bring it up because I thought it was a problem (no idea, never really played with or against Ulix... the only reason I am looking at him is because he'll be in Titania's box!), but because it seemed like a loophole that I hadn't seen others talking about and wanted to clarify that it it worked that way. A generalist sort of crew I was looking at was: New Ulix Turner Crew (Bayou) Size: 50 - Pool: 5 Leader: Ulix Turner, Porkbelly Protector Totem(s): Penelope Hires: Hog Whisperer 4 Old Major Gracie War Pig Inferiority Complex Squealer Squealer 2 Got some good ranged play between Ulix and the 2 squealers (who can then easily be upgraded. Hog Whisperer's there so 1" melee units can't tie me up with the pigs' 0". Summons Piglets, Obeys. Gracie is her taxi and then tank (although has great damage when combined with Major and can be turned into War Pig as needed. Old Major is mostly there for the melee buff, but can beat himself. War pig is a flanker who can (literally) eat their small stuff and then go for the support. Will probably get Beelined up first turn. Ulix will probably go early-ish to set up Advesary (combined with Old Major for basically free Focused!) but always has the option of running in and beating face. Nice that he can shoot even if out engaged by a longer reach.
  16. Think I found a couple of loopholes with Bacon Beeline and Emblazoned. So the criteria to grow are: Turn into a minion Higher cost Size of OG pig + the number of enemy models with Burning pushed through Well, 0 is a number. So does this mean that you can Bacon Beeline a Squeeler through no enemies and emblazon them into a Wild Boar? Same question for turning Gracie into a War Pig?
  17. Wow... Lucius V Lucius... all the tricks! Good luck predicting anything!
  18. If they decided to bring a kill-based strategy back, what about if the win-condition (eg, drop head marker, bounty tokens, etc) proc'd off the first time a model was reduced to 0 HP? That way things that demise replace wouldn't be as super oppressive as they were in Collect the Bounty (I'm looking right at you Levie, 2 Deso Engines, & A&D!). I've always wanted this for Toshiro's Leadership ability. That way Death Marshal Recruiters could lose their replace mechanic (which doesn't really seem to match the fluff... turning your colleague into Death Marshals) and give him Leadership (Death Marshal) to show that he's training the new recruits. Although this probably isn't needed as much now with Death-Touched J buffing Death Marshals.
  19. Ooof! These are awesome! So gunna be printing these out for my markers! Thanks for sharing
  20. The Changeling is copying those actions with Just Like You and targeting a Fae. Looks like good tech!
  21. Not sure if it's come up, but a great little tech pick is the Shadow Effigy. For a 7, Remember the Mission gives: potential 3" push (with a ) an Interact (even if engaged) so generally a scheme marker if targeting a Last Blossom, you get a shadow marker for generating an action out of activation Do this to an Archer, who drops the Shadow Marker in front of him for guaranteed concealment for Shadow Pin if he triggers it Combo that with a Wokou Raider who can then use that scheme marker to gain Fast. Why do people especially like Minako? Is it still for the summon or something else? What do people think of Jin? When would you run him?
  22. This is basically going to rip off The Other Coast, but I thought their idea for a generic rule for ending conditions with a value. Something like If a condition has a value, instead of ending it, reduce it by 2/3/4 (or even 2/3/5, reward that severe!). That way you can't just strip 15 Burning of a Golem or 86,473 Poison off Brewmaster with a single action/ability. It's still better than Assist for friendlies, as most condition removal has a greater range and this removes more.
  23. I've had a game with her and she's very good (although I did miss the whole discard a card at the end of the turn or lose the upgrade as well as taking actions through champions... ). The Boar was good too. Take aways were: Champion Autumn Knights are very good. Df7 with Parry, Wp6 then 3/4/5 sword swings with into thorns or Puncture for offence. Rougarous are good with upgrade too The crew is very mobile early turns with the whole crew basically getting a 2" push. This becomes much less useful later when models become engaged Titania herself is not nearly as damaging without the + to attacks and straight up ignoring concealing Mostly used Never needed to use Bloody Command. It's really good with the Coordinated attack trigger (rex gets Predatory, minions get +1stat). Think my list was: Titania - 3 cache Gorar - He becomes more useful since you're bringing cheaper minions Emissary - 10 Boar - 7 Rougarou - 8 2 Knights - 14 1 Adze - 8
  24. That artwork is stunning! Looks like she's got the Masamune on her base too. What do you reckon the odds are of Titania 3.0 is wielding it??? Here's the Champion upgrade Looking at the artwork on the upgrade, is her whole lower half a tree?
