I am usually a general board game players. I love 40k and the whole fluf, but the tabletop miniatures game was kinda repulsive for me. It seemed like a wild slug fest with lots of dice and quite little of tactics which I enjoy so much in other games. Then I found out about Malifaux from a friend whose in my board game gaming group after a session of Chaos in the Old World (great game btw). He got me interested in the game with its cool card mechanic (which I later found out was called the Fate deck!), and most importantly a much more strategic victory conditions than other miniature games. I went to the website and checked things out. I was intrigued, suffice it to say. Now, against my own personal codex (which prevents me from playing miniature games with the same reason I stopped playing magic and other TCG-s) I am thinking to start playing Malifaux. Yep its true, belive it or not (yeah yeah we know what else are you doing on this forum? Ah, this children these days...)
Now the question I wanted to ask from you was this: Which master to choose?
I like this things:
I love my game complex. Lots of choices and options. I like to win by my own skill not simply by playing the most op thing (Im watching you Grey Hunters!)
I play to win. Otherwise the game is not fun for me. The fun comes along but I come to the playing field with a mindset to win. Thats how I play all my games. So I would like to play something that actually is competative (dont know if there are some balance issues so omnipresent in most other miniature games).
And the most important question: Do you think this game is for me?
Thanks in advance for your answers and advice.
Sincerely,
Kristian
