    As far as aesthetics I love the Victorian architecture any chance you could throw in some Tudor In the design? Comments on game mechanics elements I love the harsh slants and slopes of the roofs Which suggest more definitive ‘impassable’ traits where as some ambiguous to rain more commonly leads to discrepancies. I would love to see lots of scatter terrain variations. Duplicate buildings are more forgiving in my book but I love diverse scatter and hate seeing 20 of the same barrel or what not. I love the idea of interchangeable floors but would suggest keeping things simple. Being able to customize find detail like windowsills or patio railing gets cumbersome. Just MHO I would oversize things just a tad. I have had unfortunate experiences with resin terrain being too small despite advertised as 30 mm scale. Example, second story balcony’s were exactly 30 mm and most the time because of model appendages or custom bases miniatures hardly ever fit.

    Love this! Any rough timeline estimates?

    Fully agree, I wish there were a slick way to link threads other than posting a link.

    Dare I rehash the old conversation about Sonia's blasts and Fear Not The Sword? seams very similar.

    So Vendetta is a 5 point scheme? I don’t think this is the intent but it reads that way and isn’t really ambiguous about it.

    How will the new FAQ change the below FAQs? 24) If a model moves (or is Pushed, Falls, is Placed, etc) 0" (zero inches), does it count as having moved? No. Same answer for Pushing, Falling, Placement, etc. 140) If a model is targeted by a Charge Action and Sidir uses By Your Side to intercept it, but would not be within range to be Charged, what happens? Sidir successfully uses By Your Side and is placed into base contact, becoming the new target. Then, if the Charging model cannot end the Charge within range of Sidir, the Action ends with no further effect (note that the AP has already been spent).

    Hello Southern California Malifaux and tabletop players. WE"RE AT IT AGAIN! Malifaux will be present at Gateway 2017, (Strategicon) September 2nd-3rd with several events and lots of local players ready to have a great time.

If you and/or a friend have been interested in Malifaux then please stop on by. Demos are FREE and all models and materials will be provided. There are 5 scenarios in the demo which will take you step-by-step through every mechanic of the game. Each scenario will take about 20 minutes and you can play as many or as few as you wish. For those interested in the Henchman Hardcore we will be hosting a Gaining Grounds 2017, July 2017 Errata Henchman Hardcore tournament starting Sunday at 12:00PM, registration starts at 11:30. more details in below links.

    So the Unstitched rules have been unavailable for some time... does anyone have a downloaded copy of it? the weblink has been down or over a year I think.
  17. Flib Jib
    Thanks Undertaker, I wish I was as succinct as you. To back this up here is a call-out box from the rule book, Pg. 31
  18. Flib Jib
    Not in any way, if a model with the Gnawing Fear condition makes a Ml attack targeting another models Wp, it is not a global Wp duel and would not receive negatives. Yes, the Gnawing Fear condition reads "all duels" not "this model's duels" however the Wp stat is the resisted stat and doesn't make it a Wp duel for the attacking model.

    Also, Under 5: v. 5. "Apply effects that multiple the damage" Should this be 'multiply'? like the Dumb Luck trigger? would it be better written "modify"? or is that too ambiguous.
  20. Flib Jib
    So according to the general timing in the rules, triggers resolve before abilities if they have a timing conflict. However, there are several passive abilities that don't have specific timing and that negate triggers. E.g. Does this mean that if there were at some point a passive trigger would it mean that it would resolve before passive abilities? does the "breaking the rules" callout box come into effect? Speaking of this callout box, would it at all be beneficial to have a clause somewhere in the timing chart to the effect of "In the rare instance that two special rules contradict each other, the more specific of the two rules takes precedence." I know the idea is to resolve all ambiguity with a chart that has no loose ends but just in case, might be a nice clause.

    In the rule book under the "poisoned" section there's this line; "During the Upkeep Step, any model with the Poison Condition suffers 1 damage that may not be reduced or negated." came up in a game where there was discussion of what "negation" actually was. It's not actually a mechanic in the book and in all 9 Malifaux books, (old and new) and the FAQ I could only find 4 instances. 1.5 Core rule book "Fast negates slow" M2E Core rule book: "... reduced or negated" also, a second time in the fluff Shifting Loyalties: "Arcane Emissary Negation: After damaging an enemy, the target gains the following Condition for the rest of the game: "Negated: This model loses all non-Station Characteristics." So is negation just a fluffy literary choice that's ambiguous, or does it have some mechanic I'm missing...It's not reduction, not prevention.... what are your thoughts?

    Thanks Dogmantra, love this answer. I think in casual games I'd play it the "of course" way and in any tournament I would be sure to ask if I suspected it would arise. Hope they clear things up soon

    Discussion came up at a tournament whether models can block LoS to markers specifically when a 40mm Ht:2 model stood on top a corpse marker to block Reva from drawing LoS. I was in favor that it does block LoS until someone laid out a good argument against. FAQ #45 often gets quoted to support that a <30mm models can block LoS to 30mm markers however, I now believe this FAQ was only discussing base size mechanics and not addressing Ht: mechanics at all. According to the Elevation mechanics on PG:43 of the big, if the intervening models has a Ht: lower than the attacker, then the blocking model is ignored for LoS quality. This means that in Reva's case only Ht:3 models can block corpse markers while on top of the marker. Is this correct? what do you think?
