  1. Correct! It's lady J's head, sword, arms and scabbard on a nurse's body. Just a conversion to have lady J fit into the theme.
  2. Played with swordfighter lady J today vs Yan lo. Used Grimwell and Francisco with hermanos de Armas for pushes. Lady J was a wrecking ball. She killed shadow emissary, Yan lo, toshiro, soul Porter and a seishin over four turns. Swordfighter is so versatile for getting the + on damage.
  3. Haha, no. Not at all. It's neat to see them pop up. I've got a few more in the theme. I've played around 20 games with guild McMourning. Here are my two cents: Brutal effigy is great as it gives McMourning more healing. Nurse is nice for some control and to stack poison on McMourning. Grimwell is good in schemes that require interaction. He's fast. Melee isn't as good as you'd hope for though. Orderlies are good targets for McMourning injection to drop markers and speed them up. The executioner is a nice beater who aesthetically fits the theme. Sebastian is nice for poison and giving McMourning pushes on poison. It's hard to get him to do enough though in guild. I haven't tried her yet but I think phiona would work nicely with her scheme marker drops and damage output. Francisco is great at keeping McMourning alive and putting out some solid damage. The judge makes a nice tank to hold an area as the rest of McMourning models are a bit easy to take out.
  4. That's my crew! I've got a bunch of the guild models converted to fit the theme.
  5. A friend of mine is hoping to start Malifaux with Misaki. I have vintage Misaki with him and will order her upgrades. I don't play 10T and don't know too much about them. What boxes would you add ideally for her for starting out? Thinking 2-3 boxes max. He's looking to start the game and looking for a good entry point. 10t brothers? Her box? Emissary? Yasinori? Shenlongs box? Thanks!
  6. Hey, you should post this up in the Malifaux BC, northern Malifaux, and Kelowna gaming club Facebook groups!
  7. Malifaux league in Kelowna, BC Runs October 10-November 10, 2017. 50ss games. Games will be used for the Homefront campaign. Game nights at quantum games on Tuesday nights at 7pm. 190 Hollywood Road #3, Kelowna, BC V1X 3S9
  8. Not a master, but Phiona with transparency can almost do dig their graves on her own!
  9. I tried Lady Justice with swordfighter today. It's a lot of fun. It seems to me that Lady J needs some help to get up the board in the early turns of the game. What are your preferred ways to do so? -judge with his shooting push -grimwell with discard to push for 1 ap -brutal emissary and his box -death Marshall's pine box -austringer with deliver orders How else can guild move her around? Thanks!
  10. I've used them quite a bit. I often put them in my crew if I'm playing a newer player. They all feel a bit overcosted compared to other guild models. Grimwell and heartsbane are competing with the super efficient 8ss guild henchmen. Grimwell can be really good for schemes like putting conditions on models. He's really fast. He can claim jump on his own. Heartsbane can sometimes put out decent damage if she gets her push and free attack. She can put out some good conditions but it's often hard to justify the high suited card for it when it can be used by someone else, even without the suit.
  11. I had a game at a tournament last week against the viks. I was playing Nellie. Turn 1 used my cards and weak activations to keep out of Vik range while be activated his whole crew. I then activated my big models and put some damage on a few of his. Turn 2 he got Vik of blood into the heart of my crew. Amazingly, he got whirlwind off for all three attacks. I used cards and stones to keep my models above hard to kill. I then hit back quickly killing Vik of blood, taelor and Johan. Eventually, I used Nellie's delegation to heal my own models a bit and took out his core. I was lucky to win the game overall. I won the attrition game after surviving the alpha strike and managed to deny him scoring extraction a few times. Things I think could help against the viks: -know that they will probably alpha strike. You'll lose a model or two. That's their main trick though. They're pretty squishy after that. -make them make bad choices. I knew he was going to hurt me so I threw my models in to cause damage and put pressure on his crew. -use defensive tech on vulnerable models: soulstones, defensive, buffs, etc -try to stop Vik of bloods attack before it triggers whirlwind (soulstones for -attack flip depending on her buffs, use your high cards) -spread out enough she can't whirlwind everyone -try to craft a strong hand for turn 1 or 2 when the strike will come. Soulstone for cards, keep your high cards for the important attacks. -beat them on points. It's hard to out damage them but you can focus on scoring and denying their points. They are a really tough crew to play against. Good luck!
  12. You could do some minor conversions to add some of the regular Perdita parts to Santana. It would also be good to have a Perdita variant available if an opponent was confused. This is what I do with my Francisco conversion. So far no one has wanted the normal model.
  13. I'd love to see more alt masters. Especially if models get changes to match what had happened in the story. Between special edition models, vintage guilder models, and special edition crew boxes there must be alts for nearly half of the masters already.
  14. Hi everyone, I picked up the Lucius box at gencon and I'm curious about what he likes in his crew post errata in guild (and neverborn). Any thoughts or advice on what models you enjoy with him would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
  15. In my opinion: Nellie, phiona, Francisco, guild hounds, brutal effigy.
  16. And a link to the attack-x website http://www.attack-x.com
  17. I'll be running some story Encounters at attack-x. Attack-X is a game convention. It will be held at Thompson Rivers University September 16-17 in the Grand Hall. Story Encounters will start after the GG2017 finishes at around 7pm on Saturday. Players will play two different scenarios between 7 and 11pm. It will be a drop in format so players can play the games any time between 7 and 11pm. Games will be 40 soulstones.
  18. I'd like to see: -female executioner -alt peacekeeper -alt Perdita (to fit Victorian city feel) -alt lady J
  19. Apparently McMouning's new upgrade let's him hire up to 4 beasts or academics! What interesting combinations or hires are now available to him?
  20. I often rancid transplant (with plastic surgery upgrade) and expunge instead of melee attacks. The competition for 0 actions exists now with injection. I'm interested to see how this changes up his playstyle.
  21. Wow, interesting. I first thought it meant using his 0. Very cool if he can do an additional 0. It means that melee attacks instead of expunge may be more worthwhile.
  22. I love guild coroner. Is there any way to get McMourning two zero actions?
  23. Occasionally you can find the metal single model around.
  24. Ryle Francisco executioner guild hound Or Ryle Francisco phiona brutal effigy Or Judge Francisco executioner guild hound Or Judge Francisco phiona guild hound Or Phiona Francisco executioner guild hound These are the combos I would like to try and I'll probably use one of them at my next henchman hardcore event. These lists are great at damage output and can overwhelm most crews. They struggle against more condition or WP attack style crews. Guild has so many great henchmen!
  25. I played the judge, Francisco, executioner with ready to work, and a guild hound a few times. It was devestating. Lots of damage output. Switching in ryle instead of the judge or phiona for something might be even better.
