Boo, you got me all excited! I really love the model too. I have the whole Viks box apart from her (I bought Ronin then managed to get the rest of the box bar Taelor separately). I do have the metal version but want to get the plastic (think I might end up buying the box just for her then selling the other bits!)

As per the title I am looking for the plastic Taelor model from the Viks box set.  Have money available and am UK based but would consider from anywhere as long as postage isn't too steep.  Will have a few things to trade once I sort out my minis.

The fact that Incorporeal models can apparently float upwards, through people, through buildings etc. but decide to manifest themselves into solid objects when plummeting towards the ground!

I ordered my stuff online from my FLGS (Firestorm Games) to make sure I could get the starter set before it sold put (plus they do reward points for ordering online) so can I provide a screen shot of my order from my account? It shows that it was picked up in store (so it's definitely local!) and shows its collected so it's a genuine order (plus I can photograph the stuff if needed?).

Thanks!

Perhaps the very dishonest comment was a bit much but honestly as a defence this is poor.  Nobody from Wyrd is saying things we don't want to hear, they're not saying anything at all other than 'it's closed because it is'.  Why did somebody decide that the OTP have run it's course all of a sudden?  Was there something in particular that sparked off this change of perspective?  What was the thought process behind the decision by the Wyrd team to shut down the OTP and not provide a new one?  Given the size of it it's understandable that it might have got bloated and taken up a lot of space but if that's the case why not just say we're going to delete this one permanently and start a new one, please stop posting videos as they take up too much room or something similar that addressed directly whatever the perceived problem was?

My one that my mate did for me he just glued actual sand onto the green stuff and it's worked a treat!

What Myyra said!  I had to re-size it to get it fit as a forum avatar because they have maximum sizes but Elinore is bloody talented!

You need more flame walls!

The problem with starting all those threads is that they would likely just be shut down and we risk getting hit with a ban-hammer/warnings.

If Wyrd provided a good explanation for the thread being shut down then maybe we could accept it but there's no good reason been provided and Justin's vague responses in this thread don't really clarify the situation at all.  Wyrd does a great job of not being 'that' company and allows unboxings/trading'painting of non-Wyrd models present on the website so disallowing the OTP seems like a strange, an unexplainable, decision.

Aw shucks, you're gonna make me blush

Let's just keep going in here.  Pretty sure they'll just have to change it to the new OTT then!

I'm still considering buying that bad boy anyway and using it as a 'counts as' Rail Golem.  Think it needs to be on a smaller base (I think the Hoff Avatar is 70mm?) and want to get rid of Hoff himself so some slight conversion but it's a bloody cool model!

Man I never used the OTT forum but now I feel that I want to!

What happened with the Night Terror thread (are you even allowed to tell me?!).  Was this on the Monday Preview?  I believe that the Godlyness got banned for his attitude in response to rules questions.  I have to say he was pretty obnoxious in the way he answered and I was glad to see him removed for that but a total ban certainly seems OTT (the irony is that I've always thought he is a guy I'd never get on with but after listening to him on S&S and seeing some of his AWP Facebook posts he actually seems ok so it's funny how a forum (particularly a rules forum) changes the way people come across).  Banning somebody for posts in the Soapbox Thread which was a Thread Wyrd themselves made for ranting seems very off though.

I don't follow too many threads so haven't seen that many locked (mainly I just check the faction forums and rules discussion) but locking them just because of negative opinions seems pretty petty to be honest.  Especially if it's the preview of the models.  Models are art and so like any art it's subjective.  The Guilty are a prime example as many people have said they really don't like them but I think they're fantastic.  I didn't realise the Nekima thread got locked but that model is pretty dumb as it's far too small for what it should represent.  I really wish Wyrd had owned up and admitted a mistake with the scale like they did with the Viks.  I do hope they take up the suggestions to make a Nightmare version which is a Puppet though just to troll us all!

The Guilty really are Marmite (Vegemite if you're Australian, don't know if you have a version in the US or elsewhere?!) models but I really love them.  Shameless promotion but I finished painting my first one today and had so much fun doing it:

Thanks, thanks and thanks (I think!)

And some Outcast stuff.  Rusty Alyce:

And the first of my Guilty for Jackdaw.  These guys seem to have a love them or loathe them vibe but I'm in the former camp and I had a lot of fun painting this guy:

Hey guys, wow it's been a long time since I posted anything.  I got a bit distracted by real life and also Batman: Arkham Knight and The Last of Us: Remastered but I'm back with several models to show.  First up is my Forgotten Marshall conversion (seriously I don't think I'll ever not use him, he's bloody awesome!):

Nest up my Seamus Avatar:

And this is my TTB character Tarquin de Walt. Shamed Earthside because of his 'experiments' to truly understand life he managed to escape to Malifaux in the coffin of a family friend who's will requested he be buried Breachside. A learned scholar from a wealthy family Tarquin has not let his fall from grace affect his gentlemanly conduct and tastes for the finer things in life:

He'll be getting based soon as I'm borrowing some of the GW cracking earth stuff from a friend.

Some people do like to keep their friends though!

That's what I mean. You couldn't cheat BJ from your Aftermath hand as it's still cheating. Was just wondering if there was something that let you re-flip injury results as not got SL to hand.

Thanks for the page number!

Seriously?!  What does pointing out a mis-type bring to the conversation?

Hey folks, so a discussion just came up on A Wyrd Place (the unofficial Wyrd Facebook group for those not sure) regarding Envy and the ability on the front of it's card which I thought I'd bring to the rules guru's here who I know don't all frequent the Facebook page and one that may need calification in the FAQ.  The ability If I can't Have it ... reads:

'When targeting an enemy model which is within 3" of one or more scheme markers with an Sh attack, this model gains +1 to its Sh'

The question was whether this grants +1 to the Sh value and a   or just a making the attack Sh5 rather than just Sh5.  I have argued the latter as it seems quite clear from the way that it's written as this is how it should work because nowhere does it say 'this model gets +1Sh'.  Others have argued different and used examples of Lenny and Misaki who get and respectively as bonuses with no +1 etc. in front of it.  Ototo's card also states he gets +2Ml which people have argued gives him two and +2 to his Ml value whereas I would say it only gives him the +2 so that he can double critical strike innately.

What say you rules gurus?  I think that this is an issue with the consistency of the way that abilities are written as I think all of the examples above just confer suit bonuses (+1 in the case of Envy, Misaki and Lenny, +2 for Ototo).

Cheating from your hand wouldn't be a re-flip?

It is very nice.  Looks just like mine!

The Cracked Trigger is also bloody lovely and can make taking down tough characters so much easier if you can get a few hits through.  Agree with the point about armour as the Freikorps are Armour+1 which is a nice bonus but hardly rely on it and there's not *that* much stuff that ignores armour in the game.

Even so it doesn't stop VS being boring as hell to play (IMHO) which is the reason I struggle to reach for him in games.
