Thanks for the reply. I assume the pigapult is there to throw pere (and occasionally Ophelia) into the midst of the enemy crew? I haven't ever played him because he seems kind of hit-or-miss to me. He does have nice damage potential though. Also, what should I be looking to counter from collodi? I've never played against him.

I have a 30SS tournament coming up and I think I want to give the ol' gremlins a go. I have not played much Malifaux, so it looks like Ophelia is a better choice. I have played a lot of other tabletop games, so I'm pretty good on the basics of strategyn in general, I just need to adjust my mindset a bit. Also, I've read the gremlin entries at pullmyfinger and the first 10 or so pages here, so I think I have the basics down. I'm looking at this for a list: Outcasts Crew - 30 - Scrap Ophelia Lacroix -- 3 Pool 3 Young Lacroix [6ss] Bayou Gremlin [2ss] Bayou Gremlin [2ss] Bayou Gremlin [2ss] Bayou Gremlin [2ss] Bayou Gremlin [2ss] Bayou Gremlin [2ss] Francois Lacroix [5ss] Rami Lacroix [6ss] Slop Hauler [4ss] Or going really heavy on the bayou gremlins (8 total) and cutting francois; I think having a model with somewhat capable melee may be important though. Also the strategies will all be shared and are escape and survive, supply wagon and slaughter. Schemes are one use: Assassinate, Bodyguard, Breakthrough, Holdout, Grudge and Frame For Murder. Any advice on which schemes are for this creww for each strategy? Is this too much of an uphill battle for an Ophelia crew? I have most other gremlin models, is there a better list that isn't too complex? I want to play the gremlins because they look like a fun and not too serious. I know they are seen as at least competitive as well. I mostly want to have fun, but I'd rather not get tabled, so I do want to feel like I can at least stay in games. Thanks for any input.

Hello fellow Malifaux denizens, I am willing to trade any of my GW stuff 25% in your favor for items that have a * in my wants, 50% in your favor for ** items. I have a well established trading rep at bartertown and other places. I’m not interested in buying unless it’s an excellent deal (more than 60% off). I would much rather trade, but if you want to buy something, please make an offer. I will not respond to “how much for…” messages.

Thanks for all the good advice. I think I will try the list without Mort with the two mercs. The extra corpses should make up for mort corpse making on some level. The extra soul stones should help with criticla rigors too. I think you all have swayed me from my initial want o have a massive summon pool, to critical summons and lots of rigors shutting down the opposing crew's power pieces. Also, I like having activation pressure to be able to run each pice when it is most advantageous for me.

I really like bete, but I think in this format the rider will give me more utility and consistent contribution. After poking around some more, I am looking at another possibility, dropping mort for a second merc and a necropunk (and 2 more ss in the cache). I know the punks are better in multiples, but he's more there for mobility. I can possibly summon more if need be. I also considered a crooked man instead of the mercs, less activations, but he gets the buffs from Nico.

Thanks for the input. I thought the first list was stronger... the dead rider just seems like a beast. I usually tend toward combined arms type armies. On one hand, I guess that why I wanted to go with Nico, since that is not his style. Just hard to break old habits I suppose, I feel naked without some solid ranged support. I have pretty much anything Nico can summon, flesh constructs, rogue necromancy, punks of both sorts, crooked men and more. My plan has been to try to bring in a big guy (construct or necromancy) then flood as many punk zombies as corpses allow. Is this sound? I know it is opponent and scenario driven, but I assume there are some general strategies that work? I like the belles and crooked men, but I assume that generally I will need more punch.

Hi all, I have been tinkering with Malifaux for a while and I want to give it a real go. I have bounced around between factions at various times, but I've really only played a few games over the years. Ressers are the only one I really haven't tried, so I'm taking them this time. I have acquired a number of models along the way (thanks bartertown), so I feel like I'm pretty set to run varied lists. I have been looking at Nico for two reasons, he looks underplayed and I really want a strong summoning master. I have read most of the Resser content on pullmyfinger, but I have no game experience with these guys. I do have a lot of gaming experience in other table top games though. Here are a couple of lists I was kicking around (for a 30 pt tournament coming up): Ressurectionists Crew - 30 - Scrap Nicodem, The Undertaker -- 5 Pool --Grave Spirit [1ss] Canine Remains [2ss] Canine Remains [2ss] Dead Rider [10ss] Desperate Mercenary [2ss] Mortimer, The Gravedigger [7ss] Rotten Belles [4ss] Ressurectionists Crew - 30 - Scrap Nicodem, The Undertaker -- 6 Pool --Necrotic Machine [2ss] Canine Remains [2ss] Canine Remains [2ss] Convict Gunslinger [6ss] Mortimer, The Gravedigger [7ss] Rotten Belles [4ss] Rotten Belles [4ss] Both lists use pretty common/solid models as the base. The first uses the Dead Rider as the major damage source. He looks to be very strong with the armor buff from the grave spirit and Nico's undead buff. I have the punk zombies, mindless zombies, flesh constructs, etc. to summon as corpses and cards permit. The second list uses many of the same models, but adds a second belle and a convict while swapping in the necrotic machine for the grave spirit. The convict is the real damage in this one, but he should be able to held back a bit to keep him safer since the belles can bring him targets. Also, I thought the necrotic machine would be nice here to let the convict in on Nico's buff and healing (mort too, if need be). This is a one list event, so I tried to make these lists all-comers types. I assume the first list is all-around stronger, but I really like the second belle and having some effective ranged fire. Any advice appreciated.
