I run

2 December acolytes (I like them better than ice dancers.  They can start in position to drop schemes or as solid mirror points.  Plus the amount of control they bring.  Once of arcanists best models imo).

For clarification's sake, I want to point out that Acolytes cannot drop scheme markers turn 1.

Personally,  I'm curious to try some more oddball crews with Tina.  Maybe use Howard, since he really needs to be Armor 3. Maybe use Carlos Vasquez, because who doesn't like more pillars for control?

Yeah, finding the points has always been my struggle with Tina, and I even tend to play Armor of December instead of Shattered Heart.  Snow Storm being basically auto include while also expensive, and usually wanting another big model.  She has a lot of good mid cost options at least.

Personally the early cult of burning man stuff reminded me of the hungering darkness and illuminated.  Perhaps take a look at Jakob Lynch's crew

Quick initial reactions:
 

- I absolutely hate that Show of Force still exists

- I never particularly liked Mark for Death, too fiddly, so sad that that survived without edit

- Recover Evidence:  Am I right that you cannot take this interaction while engaged?  seems a pita, but also could be interesting

- Last Stand: I really don't trust this one, I could see this being a guaranteed 3 points for some crews always.

- Love that carver is now an official proxy for something

Is that real? They've got a faction with the troll face as the logo?

It is, its from the updated Other Side pages.  On one hand, black and white means maybe it plays with the theorized yin/yang theme of the Dragons, on the other hand, not very draconic.  who knows.

Court of Two faction symbol:

In a new dispatch from The Other side,  Binh Nyguen, a member of the Court of Two, is unlockable. https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1334239018/the-other-side-9/posts/1767954

Well...I suddenly want a lazarus

It's Ripping Time!!!

Damn it, JUST TAKE MY MONEY ALREADY!

The Second Load out would be

Pandora
-Voices
-On Wings of Darkness
-Depression

This build dishs out paralyzes instead of damage, making it more control oriented.

This looks fantastic!  So, appx. 45 models in an army but with most of those being on movement trays that's only about 15 things you have to move around.  I'm loving the movement tray idea so far  I'm assuming from the Kings Empire / Abyssinia shared model in the video that models are going to be split Earth and Malifaux-side?  I'm very curious if that's the case what sort of things the Hordes and Cult feel like sharing with each other.

Good catch on the shared model, I missed that at first watch.

With all the convicts getting sent to Malifaux I expect Australia is still ruled by it's aboriginal inhabitants. Anybody read the Dan Abnett book, Triumff, her majesties hero?

I hadn't thought of that, interesting idea

There are two videos you've not yet seen! :-O

Sounds like you better start posting them quick then :-p

The crouching one still makes me think Changeling.  Otherwise both could be illuminated proxies easily enough.

Mentioned in passing in a few TTB places.

Well why do you keep hiding interesting things in there!

Is there fluff about the malifaux Undying Czar somewhere?  I don't recall hearing of him until this thread.

It occurs to me, we saw a Welsh unit, but  no Irish unit yet

Hmmm to go with the Horse PUncher faction, or the Land Shark Faction.

Ya'll keep making this hard,

My theory would be that a yang half of the Dragons Tyrant is captured inside the Masamune. Almost as if she/he/it was caught inside the blade by a legendary swordsman

except Shez'uul is a separately named Tyrant from the Dragon(s)

That is more or less accurate. But you haven't figured it all out!

Less than 8 days!

The TTB book Under Quarantine goes into detail on Titania, the Grave Spirit, and the "death" of the Tyrants.

Titania's entry in Nythera also goes into brief detail about it.

 

It's also worth mentioning that Taelor is a somewhat unreliable narrator in that story, as the story implies.

Yeah but I trust Karina.

Sounds like I need to get and read Under Quarantine now...

My personal theory is that Vik's masamune is a reforged relic hammer.  

Faction and world speculation is making me  more excited to get the rulebook for the stories and fluff almost more than the ruleset itself

I am going to tell you something.

Her name is Stormsiren.

There was a... typo. Stormsiren.

aaah, that makes sense.  I had wondered  if it was a generic vs unique thing.

The Stormrisen is utterly amazing. Love that sculpt.

Both stormrisen and frenzy are amazing.  I like the spotted skulkers.  Though I'm not too much of a fan of the bug-eyed yarazi and speckled crawlers.  though that might be just not coming through well on the renders.

Personally, I'm sad we didn't get a 3 kingdoms army, or whatever 10T earthside looks like.
