  1. @ShadowOpal - Very good points that I think I can hash out with the player, thank you! For additional background, the Fated in question here is in their late 20s, and has continued in the family business somewhat. Based on the player's backstory, I don't take them as a high ranking member so ShadowOpal's notes do resonate with that. They were sent Earthside to complete some sort of transaction and horribly botched it resulting in a violent breakout, leading them to seek return to headquarters and report the bad news. Our prologue game took place on the train into Malifaux and (despite all possible odds that I had anticipated) ended safely at the station. The players' approach to the game completely surprised me (as it should!) and I have to write something entirely different than I had thought. I'm looking for advice on this Fated in order to incorporate it into further sessions. Their feedback indicated that they felt they should have been able to figure out more during the first session based on their Fated's background, so I'm trying to satisfy the player's wishes while maintaining balance to the game overall. Thanks so much again! I'm already starting to feel unstuck and getting more ideas for further sessions. Please keep the insight coming!
  2. Hey there! So I recently Fatemastered a game in which one of the Fated were born/raised as Ortega. However this has caused some discourse as (understandably) an Ortega would know a lot more about the world of Malifaux and the creatures within than Fated new to the region. I'm seeking some advice on the following: If the Ortega feels that they should know more about a certain creature/situation, what's the best way to append to their knowledge-based flips? How do I balance the game to even the combat ground for the Ortega and other Fated if the Ortega will typically have an advantage? I feel like it's going to require some custom enemy creation on my part in order to keep things fresh. Any other enemy recommendations? Finally, just some general advice on how to run a game that is still exciting even though most information is already known by a single player. Any advice is appreciated! Thanks for your time!
  3. Hey there! I usually use my facebook to log into the forums but lately have gotten the error popup that states something like "this website app is not setup for Facebook logins." Obviously I recovered my normal credentials to get back on forums but was wondering if anyone else was experiencing this issue or if there is a fix for it? EDIT: Exact phrasing: App Not Setup: The developers of this app have not set up this app properly for Facebook Login.
  4. Did your players maintain their previous pursuits for this session? If they changed was there anything specific you had to arrange prior to starting the session in anticipation for changing class? Lovely story, btw. Keeping up with it!
  5. I love listening to these while I work. Hope you guys make more soon!
  6. Oooooo! Looking forward to that to see more examples of encounters in Malifaux. Never skimp on the horror! bwahahaha!
  7. Cool can't wait to hear how it has started to play out!
  8. I received two TtB decks as a Living Room backer, to add my stat. As for that card, I did not receive such a card in either of my decks, but I can still use the book, that's no problem. I like that the art for the Malifaux symbols in the TtB decks nod at normal card deck symbols, which make it easier for newer players. Overall I'm pretty happy with the order, especially that they made sure to inform everyone that the hardcover almanac would arrive later. Almost had a panic attack about that of all things.
  9. Hey fellow Chicago player! How'd ya get started?
  10. Heya! I was a Living Room backer and thought I'd help fill in some pics. I received two TtB decks, not the arcane one, just to add my statistic. Apologies for the quality but here is the Fatemaster screen and one of the character sheets (on fancy gloss paper!): The left screen lists the following: Fated Attack Margins of Success Damage Flip Modifier Fated Defense Margins of Failure Damage Flip Modifier Damage Dealt Card Value Damage Dealt Healing Done Card Value Damage Healed Using a Standard Deck of Cards [Conversion from standard suits to Malifaux suits] Rank Variables Rank Value Card Points Title Target Numbers Target Number Range Description The center screen has a list of Weak and Moderate Critical Effects, the right screen has a list of Severe Critical Effects. Hope that helps!
