  1. And this is why I think they'll remain as a nightmare crew. For McCabe and some unreleased Wastrel models.
  2. What? It'd only be about a thousand limbs and a thousand heads. For real though, as tough as it'd be (probably) it would be awesome.
  3. Makes me wonder if Hekatonchires are down the pipe at some point.
  4. Ototo's self-heal is amazing in Corrupted Idols.
  5. Not really an OCD thing, at least not for me (I am not your therapist, so I can't say if this is it for you). I just want all of them because I love them.
  6. I didn't change the goalpost. I already said what I think it means, that they wouldn't even begin processing those orders until the 12th. The inconsistencies you've pointed out are based in speculation.
  7. Sure, but they didn't say that was the reason. So you're speculating.
  8. *Note to self: Don't try to reason with someone using a name involving Venom*
  9. That's not what it said though? It said that orders with books wouldn't begin to be processed until the 12th. That doesn't mean what you seem to think it means.
  10. Hence the announcement about the delays.
  11. Considering they weren't officially released yet, it should have been obvious what it was. And it was the 12th at the earliest.
  12. You're not wrong. And they haven't been removed. They have rules and are in the game in a technical aspect.
  13. That's been known for a while. There was a delay on the books. That's why their official releases were moved.
  14. I think we all are. Just imagine how it feels to live in Wyrd's backyard and not have shipping yet. I'm not complaining or going to storm the gates, by any means, but it is certainly tempting at times. I'm happy for the announcement today though for sure.
  15. I don't think I know what you mean by 'quickstart' rules. There is the .pdf of the core rules that can be found here.
  16. The fact that you have a tracking number, and the most recent update being in a city with an international airport might indicate a few things. It says it is in transit, that means it is on its way. You said it usually takes 10 days, if it's been 6, give it another few days.
  17. I think that it is far more likely that the crew will be alts for new explorer's society units than it is that they'll be their own units.
  18. Because the models they are alts for are going to be Explorer's Society models.
  19. Speculation. Wyrd said that the models would be back in a thematic way.
  20. Hi, I don't play any Guild, but I think you all might be underestimating the power of hand denial.
  21. I'm not implying it. I'm saying it. They do hire temp staff to help. They are small, all located in a single warehouse/office (correct me if I am mistaken) and not a particularly large one at that. Would it be nice to know how far they've gotten? Yes. Is it necessary when people are getting shipping notices from orders placed during the convention? No. And just so you can see what kind of company they are (beyond being rather small) here is the primary job duties from their Game Designer Narrative Focus job listing on their website (Bold, Italics and Underlining added by me for emphasis): Work on current and future game releases. With an emphasis on writing, editing, and assisting in component design, you will work on content creation for games such as Through the Breach, Malifaux, the Other Side, and more. Work directly with the Creative Director to ensure that all project specifications are on target both conceptually and in terms of timeframe. Collaborate with the entire team, building upon ideas through constructive feedback. The ability to bring ideas and characters to life through written presentation. Contribute to ongoing development of the Malifaux world and its characters. Maintain a professional presence through written and verbal communication while interacting with the game community while developing an understanding of our customers’ wants, wishes, and concerns. Assist at conventions and trade shows, including set up, demos, customer service, and breakdown. Other duties, as assigned, to assist in the office and warehouse, as needed. Possess a proficiency in Microsoft Office Suite, Photoshop, and InDesign
  22. Well, first, there's not a strat/scheme deck as there are only 4 strategies and 13 schemes total (this may change when Gaining Grounds for 3e is announced). And these couple weeks are a rough one, since Gen-Con slows them down with anything that isn't directly related to packing and shipping orders from the sale, that are undoubtedly beyond the usual volume (probably an understatement on that, tbh). They are available for use for free via pdf so you can print them yourself or hire a professional company to do it. If you're dead-set on getting them through Wargames Vault, the only answer is going to be, please have more patience.
  23. We have had an official note. I think it was in both places, but I distinctly remember seeing it in AWP. They have begun shipping orders out. Do you want more, redundant posts of "We're still shipping stuff out," or do you want them to keep on with shipping stuff out?
  24. There was no schedule. That was simply the date they would begin processing orders with books in them. It's well documented that Gen-Con orders take a while before they get processed. Especially from a company as small as Wyrd.
  25. I'm ignoring the rest of your statement because it's getting obnoxious. And I'm going to address this. Hinamatsu is probably one of the /best/ choices to have as a henchman leader, full stop. Qi and Gong gives access to leverage and a lot of lure, as well as some pretty effective anti-schemers, and puppet is a huge keyword that gives access to all of the effigies. And Hinamatsu with 3 actions? Move 6 with a +2 on your charge. In melee Hina gets 4 melee attack actions with a 2/3/4 damage track and with the right luck (or cards in hand) You can literally double your attack action. Armor +2 is nothing to scoff at either. So you're actively incorrect about the henchman leader, which means you have plenty. Sure, it's not puppetmastery, but.... It's better than par.
