That's like a never can win argument though? Like, they keep the old designs, they're lazy. They change them, it's "why did you change a good model". The original Stitched were very good sculpts, why go for something different just for the sake of it when this works just fine?

Re: Contact points; pinning your models helps a lot.

Only if she is engaged in a melee, which she isn't. From the rules I would say she actually has to be engaged herself. E.g. if the enemy is shooting at one of your models 2" away from the Doppelganger, that is engaged with an enemy model, but both have melee range one so the Doppelganger isn't engage I think you wouuld randomize for her as well. Though what exactly contitutes being in melee isn't super clear, but I don't think it's a stretch to assume you're not in melee if you aren't actually engaged.

I don't even care about her hiring pool,  that's pretty good as it is. I wish she had some way to get more AP. With 3 different actions with costs of (2) available to her, she really seems like a master that is lacking AP a lot of the time. Something like adding a Tome trigger to all her CA actions: (Tome) - After succeeding, Zoraida immediately gains 1 general AP. This trigger may be declared once per Turn.

Wait what's the third (2) besides You Remind me of the Babe and Animal Shape?

Humanity also brought a lot of novel things, Neverborn don't really do booze or guns or machinery. Humans do though.

Not to mention that I can't imagine there being a lot of conflict being Neverborn and Gremlins, some scuffles sure, but they're not natural enemies. Humans however are a Gremlin enemy, and going from "these beings are good at hurting us" to copying them to be able to defend yourselves better isn't a big leap.

One thing I have been struggling a lot with the last few years is deciding on colours schemes for my models, and attached to that, which colours work well together so the mini doesn't look all "disjointed". Anyone have any general advice / good guides on the topic?

But you'd still not know like, what models someone is going to be fielding in a specific game. Like, I mostly play against my friend who plays Gremlins, and I can infer a few things about that, e.g. lower willpower in general etc...

But say, you're playing against Arcanists, yes they might have lots of armour, they just as well couldn't. Doing say, fixed lists makes it easier to counter cause if I know x person is bringing Marcus I know he's not likely to bring much armour etc...

So I see a lot of tournaments that use restricted pools or other limitations, and I'm honestly curious as to what the reasoning is behind these restrictions?

I just noticed that the art with the model profile in Crossroads is off this render.

The reactivate thingie is more like a bonus rather than indicating his primary purpose.

Focussing. Recalled Training helps a lot too. I ike him a lot with Shenlong so that I can focus / defensive stance for (0).

Does Tara's Stutter Time only work when you flip for whether the Encounter ends or also for when the opponent does?

Note that I don't think people are just finding something to complain about, I just wanted to check what the fluff said about the buzzsaw. (I'd wouldn't mind the buzzsaw myself either.)

From Twisting Fates pg 11: "The circular saw blade mounted flat against its abdomen came free from its safety locks and spun, cutting through the air."

Am I misremembering but isn't there a Large Arachnid in the Twisting Fates story where Ramos shows up at the ruins of the Observatory and has a little fight with Hoffman and that one had a saw come from a hatch? Will have to have a look at the story.

Eh, if anything the meta, even the super competitive one is probably at it's most varied right now. And there aren't really any ships that aren't worth flying. (some options might not be the greatest, but you can still fly them just fine.)

Mhm, that aside I really do like the game though. Just not too fond of the business model.

-woops wrong forum-

I think Malifaux's list building definitely is the advantage, it allows niche options to exist without suffering from the "not being good enough in all cases to take all the time" syndrome. Also, if you were to hand out a set of Strategy and Schemes to different players, even players with the same faction come up with various different lists for those, which is good.

Side-Rant: I'm not sure if I'd call X-wing low investment, the whole upgrades being spread out over lots of ships (with the Advanced fix being with an epic ship) really ramps up the cost if you don't want to proxy anything (which you are not allowed in Tournaments), I think the cost for Heaver's list was about 275 dollars, with the other lists in Worlds being comparable, which is honestly a lot harder to stomach for me for 4 minis (and having to buy ships I might not even fly) than spending it on a full crew and have options in Malifaux.

Kade is not a Nephilim though, I will have a look through some of my me1 books later though to see if they say anything about colour.

If there's not an after-damaging trigger the model will just die in step 5 though.

That's the thing though, the push is part of the attack action, it's not a trigger. The rulebook doesn't really have an explanation of what you should do in this case.

Well I meant the description on pg 32 in the big rulebook, where it says After damaging triggers are resolved before the damaged model is removed if it was killed by the damage.

Hi,

So as far as I understand after damaging triggers happen before the model dies.

But in the following situation with Barbaros killing a model with his basic attack action; does he still get to push away the enemy and push up himself before the enemy dies?
