On the 26th of October we will be running a Hardcore Henchman Tourney, 10$ entry with prizes, and the event will be starting at HIGH NOON!

4 rounds
20SS, with no augmentation of the Henchman's SS cache allowed (printed value only)
Legal, faction-specific crews, which may purchase permissible upgrades
Must contain exactly 4 models (including your Hench)
No actions/abilities that create models allowed (including coryphee duet action and the abom voltron)
Close deployment
Victory conditions are Turf War (starting turn 1, still max 4 VP) & with a different scheme each round
40 minute rounds with 5 minutes for setup.

Proxies only allowed for unreleased models.

It will be held at Captain Nemo's

563 Higuera St, San Luis Obispo, CA 93401

(805) 544-6366

Come on out and show the world what Henchmen can do!

My first thought for Seamus was a medley of Iron Maiden, the Prowler and Charlotte the Harlot.

Nico -  Soundgarden, Man in a Box or the Meteors, Graveyard Stomp

Dougy - Edgar Winter, Frankenstein

Lynch - Motorhead, Ace of Spades

Zorada - the Meteors, Voodoo Rhythem

'Dita - Marty Robbins, Big Iron

Brewmaster - Fear, More Beer or George Thorogood, One scotch, one bourbon, and one beer.

Marcus - Skindred, Nobody

Great list and great idea.

I know Machines of Loving Grace, Golgotha Tenement Blues needs to be there somewhere, just can't place it (maybe later for Levi??).

You might want to look at the arsenal decks for whichever factions you choose. There are upgrades that are not included in the boxes and they will also allow you to proxy to test out models before you put money into new models. Each faction has a wave 1 and wave 2 deck.

IIRC it is "ignore terrain and models during movement"  when your movement ends you are no longer moving and therefore no longer ignore terrain/models, so no you can not end within either of those.

Great thread and some amazing insights.  This is much of what I have to work on myself.  Thank you all.

How are you for metals?

Yeah, I've spent a fortnight looking for Coryphee in the UK with no luck anywhere. And ideally I need four (2 individuals 1 duet). I'm resigned to waiting for Colette's plastic releases.

I'm still buying her avatar and using the bunny from the hat figure of her as a master though.

If you get one pair, just magnetize them so you can attach them singly or both to the larger base for the duet (and hopefully save some $$).  They aren't easy to magnetize (because of the small connection point) but it can be done.

Can the Nothing Beast take Void Shield in a Resser crew?  I thought it was an Outcast upgrade...

Sounds like it had the potential to be devastating but the cards let you down (as sometimes happens in Malifaux....Bad things happen).

Great idea.

As stated above, Jack is a force in and of himself with no affiliations, just those that follow or gravitate toward him.

Jack is the Cheese.... The cheese stands alone...

I hate to be a threadomancer (necro-threadomancer?), but I hate starting new threads where there are existing ones that suit my purposes.

With the two new upgrades for NB and Karina, how does Tara play as a Resser? Especially now that Karina isn't a terrible summoner?

Yes, yes, Inquiring minds want to know.

If I remember correctly all of the original Avatars are 50mm bases.  I would assume this will continue but will have to take a look at the beta.

Looks like everyone is 50mm except Pandy 40mm, McM 30mm with a 50mm buddy, Colette 30mm, and Shen Long 70mm(??).

Lynch is 50mm in the beta.

She got all grow'd up!  I still like my shorty Ophelia.

It's the no pulse and the lack of any emotion.  It really steadies the aim.

My thoughts exactly...

It was available as a gen Con pre order. Not sure when the general release will be.

Used the app for a game last night.  Crew creator worked great (be nice if full card info is allowed) but it was the scoring and scheme tracking that really shined, big thumbs up! Running on Nexus 7 BTW with no hiccoughs.

As an add, I would love to have the card info in the app (I know the situation there, so more wishing) just because I play all seven factions and am now up to 14 arsenal decks and am running out of room (in spite of using a Breachbag...).  Plus the bag is getting damn heavy : )

This is really getting ridiculous... still no confirmation. And such an expensive shipping rate!

 

All I got was cards and TTB male sprue.

The only order (of 4) that I haven't received is the one with the multipose male (the rest of the order is duplicate of stuff I've already gotten), maybe there is a hang up with the multipose male?  I'm sure Wyrd is firing out orders as quickly as they can.

BTW the Wyrd store is back up for order status checking.

I like their "flash".  Nicely done.

Great write up!

I've been wanting to get Molly back on the table (haven't played her in MK2) and this thread is just the thing to get me there.  Thanks

Just wanting to check, and here seems the simple place for it. Is the order complete email meaning it has been dispatched? (Did not pay for fed ex so no tracking with the order to clarify for me)

Generally.  It usually has either gone out or is on its way out.

Just got notification on my first order:

Wyrd Miniatures, LLC: Your order #20767 has been completed

Should be here next Wed.

Ahhh k. I thought I could take Chiaki because she was in Ten Thunders. So there are restrictions even within the factions. Interesting.

 

Edit: Also, Thank you!

You can take Chiaki with Misaki.  What Dirial was saying is Chiaki is only available as part of Yan Lo's box set and therefore would have to either buy the whole box to get her or do some horse trading with other players or check ebay.

I don't remember the details but I think I heard something about the cards for Zoraida not being right so she is delayed while they correct the situation.

edit: ninja'd

The models look good and doubly so for being your first.  Nicely done!  Keep it up.

K so I got a Ramos crew box and a bunch of spiders but I'm really just playin em to get a feel for the game and get my painting skills up before taking on a Levi force. Unfortunately I really don't want to get into Levi till the new plastics come out, any word yet on when that might happen, or how long would ya guess (2015?) jus tryin to plan out my paychecks... 

Sorry I didn't see this sooner.  I have the old metals that you are welcome to use (to hold you over til the plastics come out).  Just throw up a message on the slo board to remind me to bring them.

Have:

Levi

Alice

abom x 4

Desolation

waifs x 2
