Hhrggaagggrrrlhgllr! Are there any The Other Side players considering attending PAX Unplugged this year? I would love to have an excuse to bring along my gibbering hordes for some in-person gaming. Heck, I might even throw some paint on them… P.S. I cross posted in the TOS Chanel on Wyrd’s discord server.

All I have to say is that the angler keyword better have at least one gremlin chucking dynamite to catch fish!

Brewmaster has great models - but then most of the bayou models are fun! A recent update released a second version of masters, so you are going to have to decide between the original tri-chi master and moonshiner. Most folks seem to believe moonshiner is stronger/more competitive if that matters to you. If you do go for the moonshiner, you’ll want the fermented river monks and a way to track up to 20 poison on most of your models. I like green 12mm chessex dice that come 36 to a box. The original brewmaster stacks the poison on the opponent’s crew, but it does not go up as high. my only other advice, coming from a new player, is that Malifaux is a dense rule set with a lot of interactions on each model. This leads me to speculate that it is a hard game to dabble in if you want any level of success. P.S. Most players like to have 4 to 8 soulstones left over for use in the game. So having 5 left over seems useful.

That is horrible news, I am going to be forced to rethink my usage do chessex 12mm d6s to track poison on models!😛

Thanks for the insight. As someone who has not yet played with the revised summoning rules, it was interesting to consider the late game ramifications. Also, being a bayou collector, I’m happy to see the lucky effigy being useful in this crew too.

Is there a reason folks are focusing on just three effigies?

Danke schön. I’m out of practice with my German, so I appreciate the English version too.

Yep, I gathered. That’s okay though, LARPS the Series was a fun watch.

Is it just me or does the Lone Swordsman being in the Silent Strike box remind anyone else of the character Noctus from LARPS the Series? https://www.larpstheseries.com/

It is right down the street from Mars Candy's North American headquarters!!! Seriously though, it is a nice shop with a good selection of Malifaux stuff for when you decide you like the game.

Güten Tag und wilkomen. Definitely look at the schemes and stones article if you are budget conscious. Be warned though, I started that way too. Somer's crew, slop haulers, extra bayou gremlins and piglets was my initial "plan". Three weeks later, I found that Ophelia's and Mah's crews, Burt, Sammy and Cranky all found their way into my collection somehow. Once you get lost in the bayou, it is difficult to find your way out. Tschüss.

How do you attach your gremlins to the bases? I am planning on building up swamp bases using cork & vallejo earth texture for the land and woodland scenics realistic water. I shudder to think about pinning bayou gremlins or other small-footed minis.

Hmm, hand the smug gentleman a nice sack of pig feed? Soooie!

How do you dry fit multiple parts together? Do you use something like blue tack? I could easily check the fit on two parts, but not three or four. I really suffered through the bayou gremlins, especially the squatting gremlin where you have to align the hat, two arms and rifle.

While strolling around my closest FLGS, I noticed roughly four Malifaux boxes left in stock. They pushed the game with the M2e release, but it didn't catch. One of the boxes was the nightmare edition whiskey golem, still shrink wrapped! I am still building up my Som'er crew and thinking about piggies. However, I just couldn't let that box sit there - especially at suggested retail price! While I was not intending to buy the brewmaster any time soon, I am delighted to have this model in my collection.
