You've done great job on the McCabe crew, awesome work, make me want this box set even more!

Great work on the blues and purples, I really like how things have turned out. And by the way the bases are disgusting....which is a good thing, there very nice!

Your painting is brilliant, I really like your crew. I especially like the freehand your working on too, look forward to more.

There we sat down...

Hey Wyrdos, how are you?

My name is Andy I have been a long time wargamer, but Malifaux is completely new to me. The main thing that got me in to the game were the models, so before even ready any rules etc, I bought the models I liked. I picked up the Lady Justice crew box set as my first crew, and this log will guide you through my adventures through Malifaux.

First up here is a picture of the Lady J box set:

As you can plainly see Lady isn't there, why you ask? I had a few problems with this model, the hair was kind of a put off to me and I feel that she is so small compared to the rest of the crew, though it is a nice model. Oh yeah I also broke her sword.

I ended up ordering some other bits before I had even finished building my initial box set. I picked up the guild riflemen box set, and the alternate perdita and justice sculpts:

For my bases I am going for a "Hell on Wheels" style, with lots of mud and wooden slabs, If you have seen the TV show, you will know what I mean. Like I said, I am only buying the models I really like so my crew may not be the best but atleast I will think they look good.

So this weekend I met up with @jbalderstone at Outpost Games in Sheffield and he gave me a demo game. We only used the starter crews, so I had Lady J and he used Shamus. I really enjoyed my first game, I some how won, and can't wait to play again, here is an action shot:

Lastly due to my Death Marshals "pine boxing" 2 of Jimmy's Belles I made these markers so I remember in future games:

Any way thats all I have done so far, pretty good for only a week of Malifaux? Next post expect some painted models as I currently have Lady J on the painting table. Any advice then please let me know, or if you are in the Yorshire area let me know and we can arrange a game.

Thanks for reading.

Morning, aslong as the missus lets me (as it is her birthday weekend) I am totally up for this, can you put me down.

Thanks for all these helpful ways of getting, started, I need to get some fluff read before i pick my faction though I am tempted by Mei Feng.

Good morning wyrdos!?

My name is Andy, I'm from Yorkshire in the UK. I have been drawn to this game by the models and I really like the look of Mei Feng and her crew. I will be picking up this set next month along with other things that I need to start playing. The thing is what do I need apart from the beautiful models to start playing?

Thanks Andy
