No reason to start down the ladder, I hope to make the new year a gloriously painted one although ending it as high will be tricky, might need to buy more!   @Caedrus Master level for me please!  @Nikodemus Will you join and go Tyrant?

I think I'd enjoy the airbrush too, but start up and buying more things has kept it from being on my list of things to do.

Just be careful to choose proper paints.  There are many spraypaint cans that seem like they'll be great, but are terrible for miniatures.

Either take some time to learn the differences or only buy from mini stores.

My play group is irregular, I might be able to swing two games in a month, I might be able to play none. 

It really is up for Wyrd to decide what they are looking for and to that, it is anyone's guess.  I don't even think those in Beta really get a say in how valuable their input is.  My assumption with all beta testing for anything is that numbers are a good thing since even if you only play one or two games it adds to the total volume of information.  

Plus, even if you don't get to playtest very much, you can still theorycraft and look at how interactions may work or break in the game and that can be helpful.

But ultimately, its the fine people at wyrd who get to sift through all our musings and determine what is important.

Just feels a little frustrating for those of us that didn't join the beta (because we don't have a regular playgroup, so we don't have anything to add). I've been trying to get some friends to play (but now there's no incentive to get them to learn, because a large rule change is coming), there's less incentive to buy and paint models (because we've got no idea what's going to be getting new sculpts as part of 3e, and which crews I'll be able to play the models out of), and so many of the busier forums have really died down (either because people are in the beta or just taking a break before the new edition).

Why not join beta to inform yourself on possible future of the game to keep inform choices as new players? As far as I've seen, there is no rule against someone who hasn't played m2e to not participate in beta for m3e. In fact, an unbiased eye could be exactly what they would like.  

Claiming disadvantage because you don't use an opportunity is silly.

Has anyone proxied with the actual rule set?  The wait is killer but at least we have all the material.

Additionally, I think them sending out to distributors for international orders first will actually mean that US and International orders should arrive on a similar time frame, and that seems pretty intentional.

Outcasts could spam desperate mercs, but I don't think that is a very good option.

It’s not uncommon for shipping to Australia to be nearly as much as what you bought. Wyrds International shipping rates are very high.

Same to Finland, but it's not just wyrd.  Being at the world's edge is great until you want things from somewhere else.

YOU CAN’T TAKE THE SKY pirates FROM ME!

YES!!!!

More keyword models means new models or old models gaining similar keywords.  I'm looking forward to more Sky Pirates! Or perhaps changing Sky Pirate to Bandit and having more crossover on that branch now that Zipp is in OC too.

I'm just impressed at Wyrd for tackling a M3E and TOS at the same time.  What a handful!  Best of luck and may your coffee pot never run dry!

Ok, didn't know it was getting an app too!  Thanks for info!

Just excited and I'm glad to see the cards in pdf on here, but was curious if they'd maybe make their way over to the app at some point.

Thanks!

Stalker has generally got me 3vp every game and usually a kill or two.  If he had bonnet trinket I don't think anything but luck and focused effort could bring him down and stop him. And that would allow the rest of the crew an easier time.

well, I don't know if you can read this after all this time.

I'm that new player that Franchute was recluiting. While I still want to play Parker, I followed the many advices and bought Von Schill. It was a very good advice because now I kind of understand the game and I really enjoy it. I expanded my VS list with Hannah, Strongarm and Hans and it's awesome!

But now, I still want to buy Parker, but I'm undecided if I must go for the Viks first.

Anyway, thanks you all for your time and advices, and considered me succesfully recluited

Welcome again,

Back to your question of Parker vs Viks, I'd say that viks are not a must before Parker. In fact, they have such a different playstyle that of argue they would move you away from Parker.(grain of salt:I don't own the viks just have read about them a lot.

Parker is a really fun master imo and I love his style and aesthetic.  I will say that my success with him has increased significantly with getting the hodgepodge emissary and I do feel it is a bit too necessary in his crew.  (At least it's good for VS too).

Anyways, I'd argue the vik box brings little that Parker wants so is in no way necessary to get before going for him if you want to play him still.

I was seeing that too, but I doubt anything will be released for public until after minis are shipped.

If it ends up as a malifaux only model,I feel it sure didn't start that way. Totally fits the bayou bash theme and scheme, but I can see them repurposing the model.  Mixed opinions of it so far personally.

Not that there may be a strict ruling on the wording here, but if the rule says "the edge" as opposed to "an edge", grammatically it is the edge in question (between models) that must follow the rule and not simply any edge nearby.

Thanks for the follow-up, much clearer!  Can't wait to give it a go!

Those are so great!  Really awesome!

Ok, this is making more sense, but does the unit need to have an asset in order to reinforce or is that just a separate option for the tokens?

Can someone give me an explanation on how these are used and when?

I've only watched what's on YouTube and seem to miss the proper workings.

Thanks!

As gremlins, this organization stuff seems confusing and fishy, and not like the gupp gill grog cousin Petey makes either.

Haha, only reason I can see as why we haven't done this and others have.

I got a friend with an industrial laser to make some fireteam bases for me. Basically two MDF bases on top of each other (both 80/100/120mm diameter), with holes for the 30/40/50mm bases cut into one of them. I've modeled and painted a few, and they look pretty nice with some Malifaux minis on top of them.

Any pictures?
