From my experience the best way to explain it is. The rules are only slightly less complicated than malifaux (which ruleswise isn't as complicated as teaching it seems). Malifaux has deeper and considerably more complicated character interactions. (ie this guy causes this guy to get power a but another bad guy causes you to gain debuff b and all of my guys can do cool thing c if they are in so many inches of another guy etc). Puppet wars minimizes that (in comparison to malifaux) making it more accessible to non gamers. I have it and love it (especially as my girl friend can play as well). If you have no nongaming special folks in your life you might be better off getting more malifaux stuff. But overall I think you're missing out on a fun game. I tend to prefer the puppet wars myself because the list building is easier and I can concentrate on just playing

In my case I had already paid for the bag to get Lucius. I sure didn't want the bag so I'd rather have paid the difference than get just the bag. I just posted what they told me in case someone else had preordered the bag for Lucius and might get burned. Personally I was unhappy about the way it was put up for preorder and vague about whether the puppet was included (really the only reason to buy it). I preordered it based on wyrd's original info on Lucius coming with it. Either way it'd be nice to see some post from wyrd on it.

Battlefoams customer service said they will have a Lucius and a non Lucius bag. The one with Lucius will cost 15 bucks more.

They are putting up another code soon. The bag with Lucius costs 15 bucks more battlefoam answered my email question on this today. It urked me because I had preordered it. I called their customer service and they fixed my order but ended up costing me 15 bucks us

Found out from battlefoam that the code to preorder the puppet wars bag DOES NOT include Lucius. There will be a separate code in the next few days. I contacted customer service and they were nice enough to change my order and let me pay the difference. So if you preordered the bag wanting Lucius, you might want to call and get your order fixed folks.

I tend to use pandora alot myself and have had alot of success with the sorrows (I run at least 2 if I can). If you can get both in contact with a high activation puppet you can basically make it stand around till it's dead (especially if you use pandora's power to add a :masks to it's activation cost). 1 sorrow is ok but 2 tend to deal quite well with big dudes. If things go well 2 rips a turn for not activating is pretty silly. (1 per sorrow making you not activate without a huge card). Plus if you kill em you gets cooties. What's not to love?

Is this the bag that Lucius comes with?

Very nice

Those are pretty sweet

Everyone in the demo I ran liked it and someone else bought some from our lgs. I may have to run another demo

However they wouldn't be nearly as nice as magnetized buttons. .

When I did heroclix you could get colored rubber rings to put around the base to signify which clix were yours. I was considering finding something similar perhaps those rubber things to color code keys not sure on the sizing for those however

Those are quite awesome.

I went white but I tried to make mine cartoony

That is pretty sweet.

I had this dilemma as well. (although have 7ss) I was looking at myranda due to her versatility

Lol that is hillarious

Usually my girlfriend and I draft puppets and play more boardgame style as well. It is kinda interesting due to it's hybrid board/mini perspective that the different viewpoints that arise in discussions like this. I tend to see this being more of a diversion from "competitive " mini games but I have the boardgame view.

Which four ? I'd love a tomes and and no suit Teddy

Also kudos. Love the post

Demo went well had four players so I just watched and answered questions. Uploaded some pics to the facebook page if anyone is interested in seeing them

Wow this one was hard. I had to go with mcmorning

Just realized forgot to add the time . It's at 6pm

If anyone is near charleston, WV there's going to be a demo Wednesday October 12 at 6pm. Stop by and enjoy puppety goodness. .

I like the current scheme as 4 bucks a puppet is nice. I think a good fix might be to package lady j Seamus and starter game side kicks as a multiplayer style expansion. Personally I got the starter game and look at it similar to ratty but one thing reading these forums tells me is enough people want it and it's feasible wyrd tends to hook folks up. Although as a former heroclix player I gotta add to the no random boosters please sentiment. I don't want to have to go back to rehab lol . My hope is a Teddy set later on as he's my favorite sculpt
