  4. M3E App suggestions and minor bug

    in Wyrd Apps

    Posted

    First allow me to say that I love the M3E app and I can't see myself playing without it. Having played a large amount of games using it, I've noticed very little in the way of bugs but quite a few things that could be implemented.
    The only bug I have ran into is that most games the attacker and defender will not be consistent between players. (IE Both players will show they are the attacker on each of their devices and show the other as the defender.)

    I can think of 2 suggestions that could make the app even better.
    Allow higher Soulstone pools beyond 60. 
    This seems like a very easy thing to change and while I'm aware that games are meant to be played at a 50 SS pool, it would be nice to be able to play some larger scale battles and still be able to use the app.
    Allow players to make custom games.
    It would be nice to pick what Strategies and Schemes are in a pool when making a game. Having played multiple game in Gaining Grounds 0 and 1, it would be great for players to mix there favorites from past and future Strategies and Schemes from Core to current Gaining Grounds.

    DZ is a very talented app developer and I look forward to future of the M3E app.

  7. January 2018 Errata

    I agree with Mikey_C.

    I was really hoping for the Freikorpmann to get some sort of errata(s) to help them.  Even though they have decent stat lines, they just seem to be lacking something...  I rarely use them anymore. They can make use of Shill's HTK bubble, but in most Strats and Schemes I have found that I rarely have them close enough to take advantage of it since they are primarily scheme runners.  Depending on the Strats and Schemes, I could play Von Shill closer to them, but pulling him away from the main action isn't good. If you use the emissary they can shoot into engagements without randomizing which is nice, but not a great use for an emissary that is not particularly good. Curious if other Shill players feel that way, or if I am missing something? 

    I'm with you on this. It's extremely hard to play to Von Schill's synergy if you're trying to get your schemes done in most cases. I think Freikorpmann need a SS reduction as well as Librarians since in most of the games I play they become expensive heal bots that get focused down or maybe (I think this is more so the case) Von Schill needs a little help.

    I am surprised Friekorpsmen were not affected. I used to take them often but now I think they are quite behind the curve for a 5ss model.

    I agree with this 100%. I feel this way about the Death Marshalls too. I wish the Errata had a few rule and/or stat changes to help keep SS costs the same but overall help out a few models that aren't getting to the table.

  17. "Miss" Cards for 2E

    in Malifaux Discussion

    Posted

    According to the Gaining Grounds document, it's up to the Tournament Organizer whether they'll allow printouts of cards and / or proxies of models. In an official Wyrd event, ie Gencon, refer to the Governor's Decree. However, both of those are still 1.5 documents, as they are not likely to be updated until 2.0 goes live for tournaments in January or February of 2014. We're currently still in the pre-release stages for 2nd ed.

    I was going to order my 1.5 cards sooner, but $10 shipping for $0.50 cards has always been prohibitive to me. So I order what I need bundled with my Gencon orders. Until now, I guess.

    Ah, I just re-read that. Thanks for pointing it out.

    I agree with you there, $10.50 for a card is a bit much.

    It'd be nice. So far they've said no.

    What was worse was that they pulled all of the 1.5 stat cards from the webstore. For the sake of completion, I was going to order v1.5 cards for the crews I don't currently have, such as Rasputina, since I prefer her new crew better (with her old alt sculpt). Sure, I could probably print out cards from the 1.5 books, but the dossiers in the books aren't quite in the same format as the cards in that edition. In 2nd ed., however, the pictures in the books of the stat cards and upgrades are the same cards that go to press as their actual counterparts, which is probably a good thing.

    Well that puts a dent in my plan then. :(

    I didn't notice they took down the v1.5 cards. I swear I read somewhere they were still supporting 1.5E (if only a little bit) because some people raged about 2E. I didn't know that the rulebook's pictures of the cards are the same as said cards so that's pretty cool. Speaking of making cards, if I'm not mistaken, aren't "homemade" cards illegal for tournament play? (talking officially)

    Well will you buy the new plastics and an arsenal deck? If you do then you have an extra card you can modify with a pic of the Miss model and there ya go.

    That's pretty much my plan now. I have the old Death Marshalls and Miss Terious, I also bought the a new box of Death Marshalls and an arsenal deck so I'll still be short a card (If it so happens I use 7 Death Marshalls in one game) so I'll wait and see if Wyrd put out singles later down the road. SmoothWD40, if he's able, said in this thread he wanted to make some PDFs for the Miss models and such. Here's hoping he can do it. :)

    Why not just use the Francisco card for Francesca, the Santiago Card for Santana, Convict Gunslinger for Miss Demeanor, Death Marshall for Miss Terious and a nurse for Miss Pack. Shouldn't be too hard...

    It's not about difficultly in using cards. It's about convenience.

    I have no idea what it cost Wyrd to create and print decks. But considering you are talking about putting out 6 or 7 entirely new decks that are likely going to have a limited appeal it could be more money than they are willing to spend for the sake of doing so. Not to mention that it doubles up on the SKUs for decks and it produces two different decks, yet identical, just to confuse people. And since they going to want to produce models based on the new art work, those are not the decks they are going to want to sell to new people.

    Now I have no idea what their plans are, but I could certainly understand why it might not be attractive for Wyrd to do so, on several levels.

    I never once said they should release new decks. I said it would of been nice if they did what I suggested in the first place. I feel it would of made things less confusing when mixing models, much how i_was_like_you suggested.

    Customer loyally isn't worth it? Pretty sure that's what makes a business stay around these days. I'm thankful enough they are carrying over the old models but I'm pretty sure just adding the old motel pictures (much like how it is now on the 1st edition cards) wouldn't put a huge dent in Wyrd's budget.

    I had mentioned on the beta thread that after M2E was fully released, and if it was completely ok with wyrd, I could make nightmare and miss cards as PDFs for anyone that needs them.

    That would be great! :)

    I hope they sign off. So many cards that just won't be making it over, beyond just the limited edition models. If the pic on the card is supposed to be of the model on the field, so that we don't apply wounds to the wrong models, then trying to match version one sculpts to version two cards isn't going to work. More so when you get to models where we'll want more than the two included in an Arsenal pack, Canine Remains, for example. We already have four different sculpts. We might want the two new ones as well, depending on our lists, so we wouldn't be able to use them. Sure, we can put dice next to the model (cluttering the field) or put numbers on the bases of the models and on the stat cards / model tracking sheet. But where's the fun in that. With Upgrades, we already have more cards to track than before.

    I noticed that in the new arsenal boxes a few characters were missing. It does say first wave so I can understand a few of them coming out later down the road. However I wonder if we will see cards for the Miss motels from the previous Gen Cons. While I'm on the topic of the new 2E cards, will the arsenal cards share the same artwork as the 2E cards or will it be unique to match the 1E style? It would be pretty lame and possibly confusing if I just get two sets of identical cards when I get the new Death Marshalls and the Guild arsenal cards.
