Deluge

Ok its something with my works firewall then

Yeah I been clicking on that and nout happens

Why thank you, I will learn how to quote one of these days

With the amount of plastic piling up on my desk there is no way I am leaving this game now

Should've figured, I do turn up fashionably late to things

Where is this Beta stuff?

I've played against Dreamer once and it wasn't too bad since he was in experienced. Watch the Waking condition on the Dreamer once he hits +4 Lord Chompy Bits comes out, you may have to sacrifice a model to tackle him but if you can kill Chompy (before he is sacrificed with his 0 action) then the dreamer comes into play with Slow and can be a lot easier to put down.

I'm posting here because I cannot take my wallet screaming in pain at me anymore having seen that Books thread

How does the Malifaux Child work with Pandora out of Interest? I can see that it can cast Pandora's actions but would the -3 not hinder the casting without stacking your hand in favour of it?

Well that is that then, I guess I have to find a new opponent to practise against with Pandora (not the Missus don't want to lose her before she gets into the game)

The Shifting Loyalties cover art is beautiful, any chance for a wallpaper in the future?

See I do this already, I usually run Pandora, 2x Sorrows and Poltergeist together then run Kade and Teddy as a tag team with Candy floating somewhere in between. I still loose the Poltergeist really early, I am thinking that perhaps my opponent knows Pandora and her crew better than me which is why he focusses down the Poltergeist as soon as he can. He typically looks to target in this order Poltergeist Bady Kade Candy Sorrows I tend to find that Pandora is left alone as is Teddy unless he is confident of isolating and eradicating them quickly in one activation

Ah that makes sense to me now, thank you for explaining. I think that part of the problem is that I am probably splitting the crew up a little too much

Why thank you, plus when Lucius arrives I can encourage The Boss to pick up the Good Doctor and split the Guild models. It makes the pokemon effect easier splitting between two bank accounts

Well lets face it, it is going to be me doing the majority of the painting and I'd much prefer to paint zombie hookers than drunken goblin ninja's! Plus there is the added benefit that my main opponent plays Seamus so I can gain a lot of insight into how to deal with him!! (Plus I want Molly!!)

I have managed to persuade my Missus (AKA the Boss) into starting Seamus rather then the Gremlins that she was initially interested in picking up this thread is full of valuable information

Ok how did you manage that?

Probably for the best especially with the amount I'm spending at the moment (or waiting to spend once I get paid!!)

So it is essentially a waiting game at the moment unless you want to buy the arsenal decks which will be phased out?

Well I'm going to be picking up Pukey soon anyway (probably with Lucius box as well - damn Wyrd) but I'll keep plugging on with Poltergeist I'm sure he is good I just ca't seem to get it to do anything at the moment

Oh Poltergeist is a Woe as well isn't he? I forgot that Pandora can take damage on his behalf due to Martyr!! I might have a look into Iggy as well as I am fairly sure that my friend has an old Metal knocking about somewhere (he's the school child in uniform holding fire right?)

Thanks, I have promised myself that I would hit 10 games before making model changes so I can get used to the crew and how models interact with each other I have been using the below crew in 4 games so far (again with the disclaimer that I want to learn all the models before I start selecting for Schemes and Strategies) so still have another 6 to go before I make any changes and will focus on playing Poltergeist more conservative then I have been in an attempt to gain some insight into how I need to play him to get the most out of him! Pandora (6SS Cache) +Fugue State 2ss +Voices 1ss Poltergeist - 5 SS Baby Kade - 7 SS + Depression 1ss Candy - 9 SS + Best Behaviour Sorrow - 5 SS Sorrow - 5 SS Teddy - 11 SS I have (I think) managed to figure out what Schemes I can accomplish relatively easy so I have two that I class as "Safe" VPS are Breakthrough and Entourage (both with Pandora) as I find that my opponents are more likely to ignore Pandy then to go after her so I typically can bet on getting at least 3VP in a given game, I have also found that with Pandora's set up she is also great at denying my opponent VPS from completing their own schemes by making models insignificant.

I tend to lose him a lot in the early stages of the game, he is often targeted early although I am not sure why having never really gained a great deal of experience using him. I keep trying to keep him out of LOS so I can attempt to get him within the 2" range of his distraction aura but have so far not managed to get him this close, I maybe trying to be too direct with him even hugging terrain? It had not occurred to me that he could be used for scheme running, I guess I have got used to playing The Cherub with Our Land, Accomplice and Rise Up!

Hi Peoples I have played a couple of games with Pandora lately and have been having a great deal of fun with her, one thing that I have quickly found is that I do not like the Poltergeist. I really like the model and I like the abilities that he brings to the table and the interaction that is clearly present with Pandora. However the issue I have is the cost of the model, he is really expensive for a totem and I often find myself feeling that I am playing with one less model when I have put him on the board. I was thinking about picking up Primordial Magic and playing him/her/that for a few games or even just playing without a totem at all, what are your thoughts on the Puke Worm and is going totem less a viable strategy?

Also make sure you have plenty of Terrain. I'd also add Lady Justice to the Guild list as she is quite good for learning the Core mechanics and a good match up would be either Seamus or Lilith
