  1. That baby looks excellent and creepy. Nice work. I'll leave the color theory to others.
  2. Barbaros is fairly tanky (for Neverborn) and his 4" push on Attacks can help deny the Strat. In a game with a tight timeline if people are attacking Nekima over him I still see that as a win. The kill Barbaros with Nekima move is more of a back up plan.
  3. Barbaros as Leader with Nekima (FGF), Changeling, and Primordial Magic. If they get Barbaros to low Wounds. Nekima kills him, heals up and becomes your new Leader. It's gimmicky but fun.
  4. And Poltergeist is done bringing me to 20ss this month. Hope to get Barbaros and Lelu done before the month's out.
  5. I've been more quiet than usual but I have gotten some painting in. I purposely went "Wyrd" with my painting on these and I think I like the results. 3x Sorrows for 15ss so far this month. The Poltergeist is in the middle of getting the same treatment. You could criticize my work, but you'd be Sorry! That was a Miserable pun! 😜
  6. Great reports--i like your style. I was your Rd 5 opponent and that was a very enjoyable, nail-biter of a game. Anna and Sue were super annoying to play around. It was a mistake for me to take Set Up on Sue but I was fortunately able to still get full points for it.
  7. Looking to trade my extra Lilitu for TT. Yamaziko, Lone Swordsman, TT Bro, Tanuki, Tengu are all on the wish list but will consider others. This is to help out a teen who currently has Lynch box, Misaki box, Graves and Katanaka Sniper. US based.
  8. My reading of the Strategy is that you may only target Symbols on the opponent's side of the board. So since your own Symbols must be on your own side of the board you may not target them.
  9. And Take One for the Team.
  10. The need for this sort of common Sense houseruling bothers me. I hope we'll either get an Errata focused on fixing 3d rules or they get fixed in version 2.5 At a recent Tournament I had Lilitu (Ht2) on a Ht1 platform and it was ruled that she couldn't see over the Ht2 model standing at ground level in front of her. The 1" platform wasn't a Vantage Point and I could find nothing in RAW to indicate that the level she's standing on can be added to her Ht when determining LOS. This ruling didn't have a significant impact on the game but it definitely left me feeling salty.
  11. Interesting read on facing Nico: http://www.malifauxmusings.com/2018/02/wanted-nicodem.html?m=1
  12. Nico now that he has Kentauroi, Lampads, and Asura Rotten is crazy good.
  13. I'm crazy impressed with everyone's work thus far. Keep it up and we'll have a good year of painting together.
  14. In no particular order the top of my to-do list is Pandora, 3x Sorrows, Poltergeist, Lelu and Barbaros. I'm hoping to complete at least 4 of these in Feb and hopefully more.
  15. So the opponent I play most often and who I'm most evenly matched with is a Resser player who often runs Nico. By focusing on Strats and Schemes and being careful to set up fights on my terms I do fine against Nico but I'm starting to think about how to get him murdered by let's say Turn 2. Assume this as the game: Deployment: Standard Deployment (7) Strategy: Symbols of Authority (Masks) Schemes: * Surround Them (Rams) * Undercover Entourage (5) * Inescapable Trap (6) * Take Prisoner (9) * Take One For the Team Turn 1 Nico will have a great hand thx to Phillip and is unlikely to move outside of his deployment zone and will largely be behind a wall of Undead. By Turn 2 he'll Walk forward once and still have models between me and him. We can go ahead and assume I'll be getting out activated. Any ideas on how to pressure/kill him early to really throw my opponent off his game? Thx in advance.
  16. I was skeptical about vinyl mats until I went to a tournament that used them and saw them in person. I now love my Mats by Mars mats--the quality and durability are great and the grid is there which is super useful but it's subtle enough to not be distracting. Just my .02
  17. The more I look at it and think of options the more I think I won't be summoning any more than 1 a Turn so 3 will probably be good for me. If I get going and find out that in practice I need more then I'll buy the extra 3 pack. I've certainly appreciated the different thoughts on this and I'm open to any further discussion on Woe Pandora.
  18. That's great! I don't think Ressers need the help though.
  19. This was going to be my next suggestion. I prime all black and then drybrush white but the end result is basically the same. I also mix my paint with 50/50 water and Pledge Acrylic Floor Shine. Whatever mix you use try it on newspaper--a good starting point is when the color is pretty solid on the paper but you can still read the print through it. The idea is that the paint is thin enough for the preshading you've done in the priming process to show through a bit. The nice thing about this method is that you get good results pretty quickly. That makes painting fun so you do it more and your brush control improves and you get better and better at the techniques your using. Then if you feel like it you can start adding in new techniques and effects and all of the sudden your giving advice to others on how to get better results. At least that's how it worked for me and I hope it will serve you well too.
