  1. If both of you don't use them I think there is a pop out on that page or near by that says you don't have to place them. But if his faction uses them heavily he shod have some so I would ask for one of his and place it where you like. Since a maker is a marker and it has no faction it does not matter so long as you both know what it is.

  2. I just had a great idea of what to do to make my emissary of fate for guild. Going to take the avatar Hoffman I got from Black Friday and cut off the dead baby Hoffman as I call him(I think it the worst part of the whole kit). Then replace him with a coffin. So if anyone knows where I can find some of the plastic death marshal coffins or just any in the same scale let me know.

  3. I could not disagree any stronger with Rb_Man. Marshals are amazing, the Box is amazing, and I include one in most of my Guild crews.

     

    They are best with McCabe, not even Lady J. Perdita and Sonnia make good use of them, Lucius likes them because they are Minions.

     

    I kind of agree with Rb_Man though, in that I never include 3. They are versatile models, but somewhere during list building you need some specialists.

     

     

    I think it is just my taste. Never had good luck with them. Most of what happens is I will box something then he dies fast. In truth I have issues even getting things in the box and most of the stuff I want to box it is better off to just kill it. My main issued with them are just low wound count with no damage mitigation, anything you box is easy to unbox buy just killing him, and the biggest one for me range 10 pistols. I mean range 10 is pretty bad most of the time if you are with in range to shoot you are with in range to get charged. But this is just my string of bad luck with them and how they really don't go with how I like to play.

  4. I don't even use them with Lady J. But I also don't play Lady J at all maybe like 2 matches out of 30. But I also just don't like death marshals as side from the box they don't do anything else some other model does better. Also i think the box is pretty meh. But all this being said I think McCabe would be the best fit do to his love of Minions and him not having synergy with stuff with other tags. Like Lucius with guardsman and Hoffman with constructs. But this is all my train of thought so it might not fit your play style. best of luck :D 

  5. I was reading a thread about Lucius on A Wyrd place. Someone brought up how you can not target the Guardian or the same model with his Commanding Presence ability. Now I was always under the impression when you are immune to something that means you Auto past the test. Like a skill check in a RPG you take the test but it result is pointless since you auto pass. But you are still taking the test. So what do you guys think?

  6. The biggest issue is how they purged all the old metals on Black Friday (Web Stores and eBay being the main place you can get them now.). It also does not help how they decided to try to reduce their overall catalog to make them look better to stock. I think the Bigger issue you are having is you are looking for masters not factions. If I was someone telling you play this game I would have been like find a faction you like. Do to the way the game is played and how list building works it is better to have a flushed out faction over a few masters her and there. Well that is how I think anyway.

     

    Also if you look on A Wyrd Place or eBay or battertown people are always looking to split up box sets.

  7. Power Loop in a Metal Gamin and everything is base Ca 8. Then with two friendly Constructs around Hoffman goes to 10. It makes Locomotion on the Rail Golem silly fun :)

    Oh ya I forgot all about magnesite. Damn that is good I might need to steal that.

  8. Agreed, by hiring in a Metal Gamin and keeping it near Hoffman with another Construct he can reach Ca 10 which means most of his Support spells only need a 2 or 4 to go off. Wasting Hoffman's activation to maintain a permanent Power Loop is crazy, especially when you can keep it up yourself with really low cards anyway. 

     

    How can he get 10? He is base 6 across the board with the ability can only give a +2 CA.

  9. It is a HUGE waste of hoffman. He is almost like a Warcaster from War Machine. In terms of buying extra attacks, extra APs for his constructs, healing the ever living hell out of them. That is his strongest power to waste it burying him so you can have some kind of meh buffs is a huge waste of his power and potential.

  10. I have named the 1 Guild Hound I painted white "The Bitch" and I am going to paint up my Lawyers like Phoenix Wright and Miles Edgeworth. I have not thought to name any of the others but for constructs I am thinking I will number them. Maybe go super nerd and give them Gundam ID numbers. :P Aside from that I have no idea what to name the 9 Witchling Stalkers I have.
