  2. Three left. Catch them while they're hot!!! Yeah ...you know #FreeAaron cause you know you're such a hunk
  3. League starts today. See everyone there, 14 players so far expecting more to signup in store today. See you at 3:30 at Midgard Comics and Games!
  4. Well said indeed. I think that as we move forward if the BBS change becomes a problem it will be addressed. While we wait for GG2017 to release it will be telling to see how much of a shift there is on killing vs. scheme running and as we all know that shift can also shift the worth of such a combo as we've mentioned here. With all the specifics said/mentioned I still think overall I commend the team for the direction they're moving. Overall I think they've done a great job in aligning things, and I also commend them in their honesty that in a short time (6-7 months) we'll see another update that adjust this. My personal hope is that by this time we have digital copies of cards and these changes can be made even more swiftly without people feeling frustrated with multiple purchases of cards. With that said I don't think $0.25 a card is a big deal.
  5. @Fetid Strumpet you know I respect you tons. So the main reason I have to disagree with you is that while this is a strong effect the Illuminated have access to now (especially when adding in Lawyers; which is really just another NB buff I Lucius) it is at its core a cleanup of the rules. While I accepted @Justin stance in previous FAQ/Errata I always felt it was counter intuitive to most wording on stat cards as Black Blood has always been an ability and for it to be a condition led to much confusion in the early days of the BBS release. I think this update is opposite of previous it shows a direction of cleaning up rules for clarity sake as well as balance. In this case balance is still fine I'd argue because the as investment and play to make great use of this is quite expensive. Is it a cool and powerful play.....yes. Is it game breaking...I'd argue no....is it in line with many other rules....yes. I think if it becomes a balance issue well see a change going forward but I don't think we'll see that. It's a 14ss investment for a good play and if you're using the lawyer it's even more. At that cost of expect it to be strong (no different than Nekima Yasunori etc)
  6. @Aaron and @Mason as an FYI the Scribe card does not say minion but the OP does state it.
  7. /golf clap Well done @Aaron and @Mason and the rest of the team. These look like a lot of healthy changes. Love how all this is focused on the health of the game long term and it really shows. Happy New Years!
  8. Here is the Cheated Fates Radio episode with @Aaron. Enjoy! http://www.freebootersnetwork.com/2016/12/20/cheated-fates-radio-special-kickstarter-episode/
  9. Awesome @mjungledog, I know a lot of people enjoy it. Its a great way to unwind and can be a fun meet and greet on Friday evening and even Sunday AM before people take off.
  10. This doesn't help collodi anymore than anyone else. A - Wp would but Aeslin only applies a - to Ca

  13. Meh not in love with this idea. Being told you can't play with something you lugged halfway around the world would be annoying.
  14. Awesome! Make sure to also post in the New England Malifaux Facebook group if you can. https://www.facebook.com/groups/NewEnglandMalifaux/
  15. Yeah, which is why its more of a bonus than a reason to hire him.
  16. Agreed. Regardless of the faction I'm playing with Tannen (even though I never hire him into Neverborn), he will always play with Graves. Graves and him do have some really good combos together. I also don't like discounting Tannen's "Bore to Tears" as it is good, but its not a reason to take him. Tannen really only works well in 10T because he can carry things like Smoke Grenades or Low River Monk upgrade. Besides that I see no reason to throw him in.
  17. He is not very good in Neverborn, better in 10T. Overall he is very easy to kill. His manipulative is easily dealt with outside of the Cooler bubble.
  18. Yes. It's good. But you're still using Tannen who typically sux. Its a balancing act to get him to work well in an Asami crew but I've had some good (a lot of) success.
  19. Thanks for all that came out.

  20. Just added @Inquisitor Wall event in Hadley, MA on Nov. 5th. Its a charity event so please really consider attending!
  21. Just added it to the Google Calendar. Looks like a great event. Remind me to make an announcement tomorrow at LFoDC and I'll try and get some people to head out your way. You always run great events!
  22. So we are just about 6 days away, ladies and gentlemen. Hope everyone is excited and ready. I've removed the DRAFT watermark from the Rules Packet. See you all there!
