  1. Yes, I didn't mention I have a Seamus crew box and a Bête Noir too. So some addition models are owned too. Thanks.
  2. Hi, i have found a Kirai crew for 65$. Kirai crew - Kirai - Lost Love - Dasu Ba - Onryo 2db - Ikyrio - Gaky 2db - Jaakuna - Shikome - Seishin what do you think, is it a good deal? Is it playable just with these models? With what models should I expand the crew? I don't wanna spend much money, so just the must haves please. And I don't playcompetitively, just fun games. Any thoughts? Thanks.
  3. Thanks for the recommendations. As I see Yin is a must have. I don't really like the look of that model but she definitely worth the cost. And the Necropunks will also be on the top of my list. What about The Hanged and Crooked Man?
  4. Hi, I have recently got a crew box of Seamus plus one Nurse and a Bête Noire. That is all my resser models, just started playing them now. I would like to expand my crew for a quite flexible 50 SS crew, so I need some advice what to buy next. After some research I found out I should get the McMourning box, Molly box, Necropunks, Hanged in the future. But what should I buy next if I want to own a nice pool of models to play at 50 SS. I want to spend approximately 50 bucks for now on new stuff. Any advice? Thanks
  5. Hi all, I am going to play a game this weekend and I'm planning to run Ramos. I want to choose ALitS and Plant Evidence for schemes and the strategy will be Squatters Rights. I will face against a Ten Thunders crew which is probably won't be Lynch and Mei Feng. I am planing to play with this crew: Arcanists Crew - 50 - Scrap Ramos -- 5 Pool +Arcane Reservoir [2] +Electric Summoning [1] Brass Arachnid [4] Howard Langston [12] +Imbued Energies [1] Joss [10] +Imbued Energies [1] Metal Gamin [4] Mobile Toolkit [3] Union Miner [5] Union Miner [5] Metal gamin for protecting Ramos. Union Miners for do the scheme shenanigans. Joss and Howie for do the heavy work if needed. Mobile toolkit for starting summoning in the first turn. Brass arachnid to give reactivate. What do you think about them as a scheme runner crew? Any better idea? Thanks, Geri
  6. Well, I have to confess.... In the last minute before the match I changed my mind and run Kaeris instead. I will wait for a suitable scenario with Ramos. And happened to be the same with my opponent as it turned out. He wanted to play with Rasputina as I expected, but something strange and unpredictable happened He is reading a China Miéville novel, King Rat. So he thought " well, well.... I like the atmosphere of this book so maybe I should make it a bit more real. There is a master as I remember who really like rats and rat kings. Let's play Hamelin then. " So at the end Kaeris and her M&SU friends tried their luck against the unstoppable hordes of rats of Hamelin. Was a great match after all. I have never played against Hamelin before and always wanted to see how he works. So Ramos will wait a bit more. But yesterday I ordered the box set with some extra spiders. And I'm looking forward to try them maybe in the next match. Anyway thank you for your advice on tactics. I am sure that Ramos will face against Raspi soon but hopefully with a better scheme pool.
  7. Hi, I'm wondering how exactly works the Covered in Rats ability of the Rat Catcher. Let's say he has 3 rats in base contact in the beginning of the turn. I throw them something blasty with Willie and kill all the rats with the explosion. 1, armor +3 still in effect when the blast wants to harm the Rat Catcher? 2, after the blast the rats are killed of course. The armor +3 is still valid or not. The Catcher is alone now. 3, what about if the Catcher moves away from the rats in an other non blasty situation. has he keep the armor or lose it? Is it temporary and always depend on the rats in base contact with him? Thanks
  8. Thank you for your very detailed answer. It's very useful.
  9. Hi, I would like to try Ramos for the first time this weekend. Our match will be a 40 ss game. And these are the flips for schemes and strategy: Squatter's Rights ALitS Protect Territory Make Them Suffer Breakthrough Cursed Object As I am a complete noob with Ramos, could you suggest me a useable crew for the appropriate schemes? I am thinking about buying Ramos to complete my Kaeris/ Mei Feng M&SU gang and now it's a good time to try it before the purchase. So what do you think what scheme should I select and what models should I bring? I expect Rasputina to be my opponent's master. Thanks for your help guys
  10. Do I have to wait with my purchase till February? So receipts with February date on it is only valid for the promotion?
  11. Hi, Do anyone use BF Shield bag for carry the minis? http://us.battlefoam.com/products/BF-Shield-Bag-Pluck-Foam-Load-Out.html Is it good enough and big enough for let's say 80-100 models? Or is the KR Multicase with the Malifaux tray set and with the cardboard box is better? The two are almost in the same price in my country. And I would choose the KR case because it's made for Malifaux, and the trays are being cut for the proper size. But it has no carry bag in this price just the cardboard box. And the BF has a nice bag too in the same price. Or what options do you suggest in this price range? I don't want to spend a lot for a carry bag. I carry my Malifaux stuff with me by car 2-3 times a month. So no need for a fancy bag. Thanks, Geri
  12. First of all, thank you for your response guys. I know 35 SS is not the best for this game but we usually try and learn the new masters in lower than 50 SS matches. It's enough to figure out the main mechanisms and it won't be take a lot of time with all the new models and abilities. What do you think about this list: Outcasts Crew - 35 - Dustup Jack Daw -- 2 Pool +Drowing Injustice [0] +Firing Squad Injustice [0] +Guillotine Injustice [0] +Writhing Torment [2] Lady Ligeia [4] Montresor [9] +Fearful Whispers [1] The Guilty [5] The Guilty [5] The Hanged [9] It's without healers but maybe the Monty -Hanged combo could work together fine. I am going to chose Entourage and Plant Evidence/Breakthrough as my schemes. My opponent's declared fraction is Guild. I am not sure what master will he chose to play with but he likes Lady J, so maybe that's his choice.
  13. Hi folks, I am willing to try Jack Daw in a 35SS game next week. I really like the background and this curse mechanic of him but I have no experiance with him yet. Can you guys suggest me some good options what models should I run with Jack? It will be a friendly game nothing serious and I just want to learn how JD works on the table. The strategy and shemes will be the following: Reconnoiter A LitS Breakthrough Plant Evidence Distract Entourage Thanks for your advice, Alliterato
  14. Hi all, If Lady J want to take a Justice Unleashed action ( upgrade) against a Hungering Darkness in range, does she needs to take a horror check? Or in this case the HD is not a specific target, so no horror check occur. And in the same situation if the HD is behind a blocking terrain piece, does the pulse stop or go through the blocking wall. There is a valid LOS because the HD has Ht 3 and the wall is just Ht 2. But the pulse has the same height as Lady J, which is Ht 2. Just as the wall. Thanks,
  15. Hi folks, I want to buy an old box set of Som'er to try the Gremlin feeling. I am not so familiar yet with the gremlins so I need some advice what else to buy for Som'er's crew. I have the possibility to get these models in a quite reasonable price, just don't know which of these stuff should I buy to have a well working crew. Giant Mosquito Taxidermist Hog Whisperer + Piglet 3 Stuffed Piglets 3 Piglets 2 Slop Haulers Thanks for your help, Geri
  16. Hi, Is there any limit for using Accomplice ability? For example if I activate Collodi at the end of his activation I activate a Wicked Doll with the Accomplice ability, after that activation can I activate an other Wicked Doll ( of course in 6") and so on? So is it possible that I can activate 4 models in a chain? Thanks,
  17. Hi, I am trying to start playing with a 30 SS Collodi crew and I need some advice. Is this crew would work together fine? I will play against Kaeris in the next few times. Neverborn Crew - 30 - Dustup Collodi -- 6 Pool +Breathe Life [1] +Fated [1] +Strum the Threads [1] Marionette X 4 [12] Brutal Effigy [4] Hodgepodge Effigy [4] Lucky Effigy [4] 3 SS left. My other quiestin if I can summon Wicked Dolls with Collodi even they are out of my base crew, or I just summon Marionettes? If you have any suggestions for a better 30 SS group feel free to advice me. Thanks,
  18. Hi, I am looking for some terrain element. Is the HO scale trees and bushes fits for Malifaux? In this scale bushes are around 4-5 cm and the trees are 10-15 cm or even 18-20 cm. Is it good? What would be the optimal height range for trees in the world of Malifaux? I am also curious if the Dave Griffin house models are good enough? I made one simple hovel and it's height is 9 cm, the ceiling height is 5,5 cm. I think this one is the smallest building from them. If the DG models are not good could you suggest some building models. Thanks for any advice,
  19. I am second about your request. I would totally buy a book with all the fluff and novels in it. That would be awesome. I am a newbie who want to start the game now, so if I would like to know all about the fluff I need to buy every big book just for the stories. It's not too economical since the rules and stats are useless in the books. So please Wyrd Games just think about it. Maybe a kickstarter campaign would be a great solution too for a story book.
  20. Thanks for the good advices. Sounds awesome Argentbadger. OK, let's say I could buy both crews ( and this point I really hope my wife doesn't read this forum ), later if I want to run a demo, would these two crews play fine against each other?
  21. Hi, I have posted this in the 10T topic, but maybe I can get some good advice here too. So I have found 2 crews for the same price, painted ( which is a good point to me now) and I need some advice which would be a better starter crew. This would be my first try in Malifaux. I also curious which would be more "generic" or "ordinary" as an opponent? It would be work fine against my buddies' crews whatever they will be. So, Mei Feng box, Rail Golem, 3 fire gamins Or Lynch, Hungering Darkness, 3 Illuminated, 3 Depleted, 2 Beckoner, Graves, Tannen Any thoughts?
  22. Thank you for the responses. Sounds interesting playing with Mei. I have noticed an other crew on the same price also painted. Which would be better as a starting crew? And which would be better as an ordinary opponent. I have to think for the crews of my buddies also So the above described Mei Feng box, Rail Golem, 3 fire gamins Or Lynch, Hungering Darkness, 3 Illuminated, 3 Depleted, 2 Beckoner, Graves, Tannen Any thoughts?
  23. Hi, I am ready to purchase my first crew and I have found a painted Mei Feng crew in reasonable price. What do you think about this list: Mei Feng box content + Rail golem + fire gamins I don't want to play on tournaments just playing with my buddies. Would this crew work together? What should be the first purchases to expand? Will it work fine against any other faction and crew? Thanks for the answers, Geri
  24. Hi, I am here for some advice for my first two crews. I am going to start Malifaux and would like to buy a Zoraida box set what I have found in good price nearby. My first question is which crew(s) would be the best opponent(s) for Zoraida? I would like to buy an other crew so I can teach the game to my gaming buddies. If I buy the old Zoraida box set and a M2e rulebook then I will have all the stat cards for my crew in the rulebook, right? Thanks for any help, Geri
