Hello chaps! First post. My local store carries a lot of Malifaux and there's plenty of interest in it, so I was hoping to buy in and start playing. I remember playing a demo a while back and thinking it was great. I'm a miniatures painting nerd, which in my case means that I prefer to paint a small number of models well. Which factions/crews/whatever can be run as a low model count force? Malifaux looks like it has relatively small forces anyway but a handful of big powerful expensive guys would suit me better than a crew with lots of cheap henchmen. Many thanks for any suggestions.
