The Dr. is in.

Just sent you a PM, Fortune.

Found a group recently that's about a 45-60 minute drive but it's something. I won't get in a ton of games but I'll occasionally make the drive. Got in my first game last week in over a year so it inspired me to put some paint to my Malifaux models again. Got some stalkers finished up in short order.

I painted up Raspy's box last year as well so I could run demos with these two crews. Unfortunately had issues stirring up a meta in my area.

Been a long time since I posted here but finding my way back into the game lately so I guess I'll dig this thread out of the grave. Took me a long time to come back and finish my Guild's Judgement box but it's all done.

Nice idea, Fortune. Looks good. I'll post back here once I get my conversion all sorted out.

That's not a terrible idea and I have the means to cast bits easily enough. Hmmm Kind of like the idea though of a more grotesque solution sort of like Yin in Ten Thunders

Hmm, would love to see that. Anyone got any pics? I thought about cutting off the magic pukey bits and incorporating a skull or mangled face onto the worm in that location. Sort of making it look like it's protruding from the inside of the worm. Might work, might look ridiculous.

Anyone done any interesting conversions for Primordial Magic? I really find the model uninspiring but would want to keep it GG legal. Trying to think of things I could do to make it look cooler while still keeping it legal and clear enough to my opponent.

For anyone who was thinking of coming out tonight 2/27 for Malifaux, have to cancel since the store will not be opening today. Should be back for next week 3/6.

In an effort to try and churn up interest in the game in southern CT I will be running weekly demos every Monday at Clockwork Comics 512 Boston Post Rd. Orange, CT. 5pm-9pm Starting February 27th Come on and check it out.

Yeah, situation was I charged Barb nearly in base contact with target, hit first attack, pushed target to within 1 of Lilith but not out of Barbs reach. Lilith takes attack. 2nd charge attack hit and pushed target a little closer to Lilith. Lilith takes another attack.

That's freaking awesome! That's how I played it but wanted to be sure. Almost seemed too good to be true but based on the way it was worded it seemed right to me. Thanks for the prompt response!

Want to make sure about this interaction. Say Barbaros charges a model engaged with Lilith, hits his target with Macuahuitl and pushes it within 1 inch of Lilith. Lilith then uses her thirsty mandrake ability and and uses Alraune to attack the target. Barbaros then makes his second charge attack, hitting and pushing his target, again ending within 1 inch of Lilith. First question: Does Lilith get to hit the target again since the model did end a push within 1 inch? Second question: Does she still get the positive twist on the attack and damage flip with Alraune and can she declare the Bloody Fate trigger as well? Thanks!

Felt like making some terrain one night. A little foamcore, hot glue, and 2 or 3 hours....done.

Thanks for the quick response. That's what I thought but wanted to make sure.

I realize you cannot cheat a negative flip (ie. 0-5 modifier) but does abilities like hard to wound factor into this as well? For instance a model is attacking another model that has hard to wound and the combat modifier is a difference of 6-10 in favor of the attacker, normally a neutral damage flip, but then hard to wound applies a negative flip to damage. Does this mean I cannot cheat the damage? Would the attacker need a combat modifier of 11+ in order to cancel the hard to wound? How about hard cover?

Wow!, just checking back in on this thread after a few days away. So glad this has started some real conversation around the topic. Thanks so much for everyone's comments and interest. I'm really looking forward to seeing what some of you guys come up with! Exciting!

Thanks for the replies everyone. Anyone else want to add their two cents?

Great looking Sonnia crew. Well done.

Recently got into Malifaux and I love the game. I come primarily from a Warmachine/Hordes background and I'm a big fan of the Warmachine podcast "Chain Attack". For those that don't know Chain Attack is a kind of battle report podcast in which each week they discuss 2 Warcasters/locks, list construction, spells, abilities, etc. and then do the battle report. Afterwards they discuss the matchup, the caster/locks, and grade them. I love this format for a number of reasons; it's helped me learn more about models I haven't played against, the show is about an hour, and for the most part they stay on task instead of going down long rabbit holes that so many podcasts fall victim to while stretching out the show to 2 hours long. My question is are there any Malifaux podcasts in this vein? I've listened to a couple different ones and most are just too long and the hosts ramble on with inside jokes that no one but them really gets. Any suggestions?

Three Death Marshals from The Guild's Judgement crew box all finished. Had a lot of fun painting these models; the blue fire and source lighting was challenging and stretched my painting skills for sure.

looks great. nice and clean.

Nice idea for the basing. Looks good

Thanks everyone for the kind comments. @Renen: subtle OSL like this is actually not too hard. First, just paint the model like you normally would. The only tricky part is determining what shade of color to use for the glow. For fire I use a bright orange mixed with a little bit of yellow and watered down a fair bit. Then I just go back and hit areas where the glow from the fire would be. Start conservatively, you can always add more to it. Stick to just raised areas and edges. In this case the tops of the chain links, bottom of the beam directly below the flames and just the very most raised edges of cloth and the tips of nails nearby. There are plenty of tutorials online for OSL. Give it a try. I've only actually done it a few times myself.
