  1. I've run a similar list before and it worked OK. three archers is a bit much and they tend to get targeted pretty early (and go down quickly). They can lay the hurt on though.
  2. I would add that you might not want to buy TT Archers unless you are ready to frustrate yourself. Building (and storing) those models is a major PITA.
  3. Step 1: Acquire Hobby Knife & female model Step 2: Shave off teets of female model with said hobby knife acquired in Step 1. Step 3: Profit. Optional Steps Step 4: Acquire greenstuff Step 5: using greenstuff acquired in step 4, sculpt bulge on previously female model's pants (in crotchal region) Step 6: Profit some more.
  4. Considering that the "magic rock" was called "Wyrdstone" it seems like is 100% "directly influenced" by Mordheim.
  5. I was thinking that we may need one of those chess timers, lol.
  6. I've played 4 games so far - 3 with Yan Lo and 1 with Misaki. My first game was me and another first timer playing our first game, so I don't count that, but the rest of my games are probably averaging close to 3 hours for a 25-35 SS battle. This seems way too long for a game where each player has less than 10 models on the table. My first 2 games were against Kirai, so I guess you can get lots of models on the table with her. I played my biggest game against Seamus, and then my last game I gave someone an intro (he was playing pandora). Any tips to get games moving faster? I was under the impression that this was a 45min-1.5 hour game on average. What am I doing wrong?
  7. Looks amazing so far. Good job.
  8. I play ten thunders, so the only metal models I currently have are the ten thunder brothers. They do slide around a bit. I just put them near the bottom & put them in contact with another plastic mini to keep them secure. I could glue a second magnet to the bottom, but that would probably be overkill.
  9. Yeah, seriously. I really didn't want to do it, but I liked the rules so much, that I kind of had to.
  10. I had to buy a second box because I ruined the first box so badly.
  11. Have you tried this with Malifaux's plastics? I find that they are much more brittle than the plastics of other companies. I would not want to pack mine in foam.
  12. Or when Malifaux is bigger than Warhammer, it will be worth $7,000 dollars. Yes - $7,000 exactly.
  13. Gorilla Glue + Rare earth magnets + Cheap sheet metal + cheap box = malifaux case Glue rare earth magnets to the base, glue sheet metal to insides of case... done!
  14. OK cool. I haven't checked that out yet. I play at Dropzone in Glen Burnie.
  15. I really appreciate the complements/comments. I do enjoy painting quite a bit, and I do hope that 10 years from now I can have the skills to be considered a top-notch painter. As such, I'm always trying out new things. With both Yan Lo and Chiaki, my main goal was to try out some object source lighting. While I think Chiaki's dress does look pretty decent, I would like to give it another shot to see if I can get it to look like I really want it to. I know I won't get it perfect, but I at least want to give it 1 more shot. I was not 100% happy with Yan Lo's OSL glow either, but I like it enough to keep it. I think if I can improve chiaki's dress a bit more, I can make it look really striking. I think if just stick with the lighter purples (and not make it extend too far up) that will improve it a lot. We will see though. Right now, I'm trying to finish my other 2 ashigaru. I tend to jump around on models a lot. I generally tend to have lots of 50-75% complete models, lol. I get bored, then switch to something else.
