Just to let you know that I already got my stuff. And in case you are wondering no I didn't got myself as my giftee

Hello everyone, I got into malifaux a few weeks ago and at the time my housemate showed some interest in joining as well. Unfortunately his PhD funding as ran out and he is going through a bad phase so can't really afford/justify starting a new game. For that reason I am thinking in giving him a crew he can play just a few games with without requirement almost none or just a small investment. He showed interested in a few crews, namely Kirai, Colette and the alternative sculpt for seamus. He normally likes more of the creepy looking miniatures for I am looking more in the neverborn or resurrectionists factions. The problem with the crews I mentioned are that Kirai I believe it is his favourite but from the pull my finger seems to be a crew requiring a lot of additional purchases immediately which is not ideally. For the seamus crew he does not like the boxed miniature and only the alternative so I would have to buy a list rather than buying a crew. And Colette although he likes the looks of the crew he does not seem to be very beginner friendly. The pandora box was also mentioned although mainly for baby Kade and Cady which I believe are outdated. Can anyone help me choose something around 25SS that I could give him for him to get into the game and starting learning it. I am expecting to spend around £25 to £30 maximum

Can't wait

Started recently so can't really say I played that many games. But all of them were as guild and I intend to stick with them. Might buy another masters box at some point but still need to decide which one.

Looking forward to see those extra models coming in

Like others have said pretty good start. the fact that the models are metal and less heroic than other similar models they are harder to pick up details and such. For the thinning of you paint it depends what you want to do but for details I would probably go for 1:1 water:paint ration at least. Then just keep brushing on the side until you have almost no water coming out of the brush and move to the model at this stage. You can also use a piece a paper but this is hard to do as the effect is almost non existent when you apply one coat of paint only.

Still available. Was negotiating a potential trading for a C. Hoffman but haven't heard anything for a few days

Hello everyone, I am new to the forums and still trying to get used to the format. One problem I have been having is everytime I reply to private message I can't see the message I have sent anymore. This does not appears on the sent folder. Is this normal or just me being stupid?

I got an extra starter box of the lady justice crew. It is unpainted (paint stripped) and mainly unassembled. I am willing to trade by any other guild starter set or models. Cash is also fine but I would prefer models

Your NMM is stunning. Thank you for sharing. I am currently painting Guild as well and I find your work really inspiring.

Excellent count me in

Let's hope so otherwise I might not get the model in time. I called my LFGS but they said I had to contact Wyrd. Lady justice also as a bit of a strange round hole on her hair but I will paint her anyway since I don't think it is too bad.

Well I end up picking the lady of justice box and will order the remaining items online probably. Unfortunately one of the marshals came with a blob of metal where it should have a gun. Not sure if I should just go back to the store and swap or try to fix it with green stuff. I am not that good at green stuff so might have to swap them.

Wow that reply is amazing. Really appreciate the help here you have definitely give me food for thought. Based on the replies here and over at dakkadakka I have my mind pretty much set for the lady of justice boxset. Over at dakka dakka people also suggested to pick Executioner Scales of justice Guild Austringers (1 or 2 of them) Convict Gunslinger I have called my local store and they seem to have the box in stock so think I will pop down after lunch and have a check at the models. Unless I suddenly realize that I don't like the models or that I will prefer the Viktorias I will just buy the box and order the extra models from wayland which seem to be in stock. I am thinking in something like this for the crew at the moment: Guild Crew - 25 - Scrap Lady Justice -- 7 Pool Scales of Justice [2ss] Death Marshal [4ss] Death Marshal [4ss] Executioner [7ss] Guild Austringer [5ss] There is the problem of the marshals loosing buffing power but I have no idea what it means at the moment. Maybe I will need to replace her totem with another Death marshal but that might leave me short with the SS pool

Based on the replies it seems that is going to be either Lady justice or Viktorians since they seem to get good consensus. Pretty hard to pass on the aesthetics of the Colette though... Might just pick one of the masters from the local store and then decide on the rest of the crew. This assuming my LFGS carries this models. Fingers crossed

Thank you for the help so far. Like I said I am just using this as an excuse to get into the game. So I don't mind to pick something that is not the most competitive thing in the world. Just something I will have some fun playing with. I can also buy the lady of justice separately if there are better models to pair her with. Again really open to all suggestions. The viktorians sound quite good as well is just the aesthetics of the rest of the faction that it's worrying me.

Hello everyone, My local gaming club is organizing a malifaux tournament one month from today. I have never played malifaux and after reading a bit about it seems quite a good skirmish game. At the moment I only play 40k and KoW but due to their scale I never have time to finish a full painted army. For that reason I am looking to get into a game where I only have to paint an handful of minis and it is cheap to start playing. Malifaux sounds perfect for this and this tournament might be the perfect excuse to pull the trigger. I prefer much more the painting side of it and prefer to paint diversified units rather than the same one in a large squad. The rules for the tournament are the following http://www.wyrd-games.net/showthread.php?36556-25ss-Malifaux-Tournament-based-in-Cambridge-Uk-on-Sunday-25th-November-2012 I download the free rulebook and I am giving it a read. I am also reading the pullmyfinger in how to get started. But just for reference how many models would I need on average and how much would I have to spend? Which rulebook is the one I need? Can I buy one with rules and fluff on the same book? Are bases included with the models? I will end up picking a force based on aesthetics and I am leaning towards the lady of justice boxed set. Would this work for the tournament? Or is it better to pick individual models to create a crew? The other boxed sets I am inclined to are: Lucius box set Colette box set Kaeris box set Viktorias box set And in general I prefer the looks of the guild and the arcanists so any good crew from this range would probably fit as well. Also does anyone as recommendations of an online store the could dispatch this models quick, in time for me to paint them for the tournament?

Hi everyone, I am Bruno and recently joined a new local gaming club. Malifaux is quite popular at the club and they are running a tournament one month from today which may just be the perfect excuse for me to join ii.

My local gaming club is organizing a malifaux tournament one month from today. I have never played malifaux and after reading a bit about it seems quite a good skirmish game. At the moment I play 40k and KoW which due to their scale means I never have enough time to paint models or assembly complete armies. I am extremely frustrated by this and I tend to prefer painting individual miniatures than really big groups the same way over and over again. For that reason I am looking to get into a game where I only have to paint an handful of minis and it is cheap to start playing. Malifaux sounds perfect for this and this tournament might be the perfect excuse to pull the trigger. The rules for the tournament are the following http://www.wyrd-games.net/showthread.php?36556-25ss-Malifaux-Tournament-based-in-Cambridge-Uk-on-Sunday-25th-November-2012 I download the rules and I am giving it a read and I also have been reading the Pullmyfinger forum. But just for reference how many models would I need on average and how much would I have to spend? Which rulebook is the one I need? Can I buy one with rules and fluff on the same book? Are bases included with the models? I will probably pick a crew based on looks and at the moment I am leaning towards the lady of justice starter set. Would this work for the tournament above? The other starters sets I am liking are: Lucius box set Colette box set Kaeris Box set Viktorias box set
