Hi there, I've been looking around the internet for advice and stuff, and thought maybe if I just ask it would be easier to have all that vast information put in a more understandable way. Basically, I play hordes and warmachine. I started earlier this year and really enjoy it. However, my girlfriend wants to start malifaux because of the cheaper cost and she likes the models more. I basically want to know what to get to start us off. I have all the hobby items from warmachine, and so just need help on the malifaux game aspect.
I downloaded the rules and have read through that, and will get the rules manual for each of us too. Looking at the models, the Victorias box set and the Lady Justice set both appeal to us. I have 2 questions though before I do any purchasing. Firstly, should I make changes straight away before playing (e.g. add ronins)? or should I just leave them as they are for the moment, get to grips with the game mechanic before adding stuff?
I want these to be as even as possible so we both have the same chance of winning, and no one person constantly dominates over the other making the experience of first time playing not fun, so if changes need to be made to make this fair then thats fine, or if all is well to kick off with just the box sets then thats good too.
thank you very much for any help, hope this is the right place to post this.
