http://www.fiendishfabrications.com.au/ not bad stuff.

Just looking over the Ortega's as I like shooty crews. They all have Companion (Family)!!! Isn't that a bit too good as they could all activate in one go, so giving an awesome alpha strike capability. If they win the first initiative, isn't it almost game over for the other crew if they are in range?

What about casting a spell into combat/melee?

Getting the hang of this game but a few more questions: 1) What is the difference between an attack that inflicts Dg and one that inflicts Wds? 2) When you use a soulstone to add a card to the results of a flip, can you then also cheat either card? 3) Ashes and Dust - does the following work? If I use A&D in a Leve crew, can I use "Sacrifice the weak" to sacrifice a Hollow Waif (spare one), get the healing flip for all in 3". But because Hollow Waifs are resummoned when sacrificed, I actually loose nothing. 4) Hans - Can Hans shoot twice with his sniper rifle if he does not move? 5) Hard to Kill - Do I have this right? One attack can reduce to only 1 wound regardless of how much damage is done. So it takes a second attack to actually kill them? 6) How many companions can activate simultaneously? 7) When charging into melee, does Melee Master also get the bonus for the first round or is it just the single charge attack? 8) How does casting a spell work in melee? Does the CA flip get a negative modifier? 9) If you are in melee range of an attacker, I assume you count as being in melee, even if the melee ranges are different? So for example, Attacker has Melee range 3, whilst defender has melee range 1, but both count as being in melee for the purposes of disengaging attacks? 10) Am I getting the sequence of duels right? A) "Attacker" flips card and can choose to add a SS or cheat fate "Defender" must then flip and the attacker's score. If the defender total is equal or less then the attacker wins. C) The Defender can choose to add a SS or cheat fate.

Not interested in competitive official play, just in my club. What do you think I should replace the cross with? 1) scythe 2) staff 3) mechanical / armoured hand 4) mechanical / armoured claw/talon 5) a gun 6) some other icon

According to the blurb on the Malifaux website... Malifaux provides many things to a man like Leveticus. Foremost, he has the privacy to pursue interests that would be considered distasteful in a more civilized environment. In the art of combining steel and bone, cog and sinew, Leveticus is a savant. He has used his talents to augment his own body despite his advanced age thereby perpetuating his own life indefinitely. So he has augmented his own body.... this I suppose could be technological, necrological, biological, etc.... so he could be some weird freak. He is an outcast after all...

I don't like the Leveticus current model. Maybe the Alt when its released will be ok. Some of the models are great, but as always some are not to my liking. Leveticus is one of them. The Hollow Waifs are good models, but the one I have ordered has shackles... like they have the "Shackled" rule... I can always put more clothes on her with some greenstuff if needed.

http://www.masq-mini.com/aid-210-Antonius-van-Teufin.html This will be my Leveticus - I'll do some minor conversion with his "cross" so that its not quite so holy, maybe some steampunk weapon or such. He has a similar look to the rest of the Malifaux range, and he is an old man. and... http://www.masq-mini.com/aid-220-Possessed-Girl.html As a Hollow Waif - subservient to Leveticus as always

http://www.masq-mini.com/ Just ordered two models from here. Great models in theme (or so I think)

Ok, Malifaux is all about the "new world" right? With weird things and such... So... and you have to bear with me. Leveticus is a steam-punk necromancer right? He loves experimenting with life, technology and is generally an outcast... So.... looking through various models how about using Dark Eldar. Urien Rakarth (the new one) has a really freaky, evil looking mix of technology, flesh and such all gone nastily wrong. You could use various other models from the range for other models....

Yeh, on reflection I think he is not quite Leveticus. Maybe I'll just get the current model and change the head out for something else.....

So what books do I "need" for Malifaux? Twisting Fates Rising Power Is that it, or is there another core rulebook? Apart from the basic "pocket" guide.

I think Cryx warjacks are pretty arachnid-like, and they can be converted to have a harpoon gun from the Reaper warjack. They could be used as a more creepy, Leveticus themed "Peacekeeper" as he is more necro-steampunk.

I was thinking of using the Withershadow Combine as Leveticus. The Brute Thrall as a Desolation Engine. The Mechanithralls as SPA's.

How would you convert them to fit with the Malifaux theme?

Guess I will just have to wait for the alt to come out. So do people think the Cryx idea is a silly one and would not fit the Malifaux world?

Yeh, some great models in the Tombstone series. Probably most appropriate for Guild though. No comments on my Cryx idea.... :Confused_Puppet2:

Am I reading that right! Maelstrom games are selling the Smog 1888 model for £18.90!!!!! Is it a 54mm scale model? Or is it a 32mm model? Why is it SO expensive.... kind of makes getting it rather than the Levie model rather pointless.. I could get an entire crew for that model almost.

I was considering using Warmachine Cryx as a Leveticus crew. Using the Withershadow Combine as Leveticus and his "Hollow Waifs" (even though they are not female). They are necro-punk. I was going to use a warjack conversion as a Levie-necro themed Peacekeeper and similar for other constructs that he can take. I figure he will have made them fit his own aesthetic tastes, or had them customised so. I was also thinking of using the Brute Thrall as a Desolation Engine, though again I would convert it slightly, making it more spikey and brutish, maybe incorporating some "fused" SPA's. The SPA's themselves could be either Drudge Mind Slaves or Mechanithralls or even Stitch Thralls. Would that work do you think?

When using proxies, what other companies do you suggest fit the Malifaux world. Are Privateer Press (WM) too extreme, for example? What proxies do you have?

Maybe not the place to post this, but its about Leveticus... so as good as any. I dislike the current Leveticus model and the alt is way of (so I hear)... so I have been looking for a proxie model. What do people think of.... http://www.coolminiornot.com/shop/jeremiah-crow-1-35-scale.html http://www.shop.microartstudio.com/thorvald-nielsgaard-p-290.html http://battlecollege.wikispaces.com/Withershadow http://www.reapermini.com/Miniatures/Chronoscope/latest/50012#detail/50012_w_3 http://www.maelstromgames.co.uk/index.php?act=pro&pre=smx_mse_ger_ess_101_000 http://www.maelstromgames.co.uk/index.php?act=pro&pre=cis_hld_wes_ind_511_000 (with a bit of conversion needed) http://www.maelstromgames.co.uk/index.php?act=pro&pre=tab_edn_isc_drn_241_000 (this is a great model, but a bit too big perhaps) http://www.maelstromgames.co.uk/index.php?act=pro&pre=fbt_fbf_bhd_spc_151_000 http://www.maelstromgames.co.uk/index.php?act=pro&pre=som_spw_nwb_elt_101_000 http://www.maelstromgames.co.uk/index.php?act=pro&pre=tow_tow_ftg_032_107_000 http://www.games-workshop.com/gws/catalog/productDetail.jsp?catId=cat1140003&prodId=prod1160013a (obviously get rid of the gun and some minor conversion)

I was looking a the crew creator on here and clicked the Brawl box. It came up with a 2nd Master position, specifically either Ramos, Hoffman or Hamlin the Plagued. So was wondering which out of those would work the best with Levie.

We didn't play any schemes or scenarios as this was both of ours second game and we are still getting used to the basics. Does Collodi need LoS to use Retract or whatever it is? The way my opponent was playing was that all marionettes were moved to be within 8" of hi regardless of LoS or terrain, etc... not sure if he was being played correct. Then Collodi could use some action to move into base contact with a marionette, dragging other marionettes with him.. Is that correct? ---------- Post added at 07:02 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:04 PM ---------- What master synergies with Leveticus the best?
