Yesterday's game was a flank plant explosives, harness Ley lines, Vendetta, Search the ruins, Deliver a message and outflank. I played Perdita vs Shen Long. Game ended on turn 3 due to time limit. final score 4/3 for guild plant explosives 1 / 2 Search the ruins : - / 1 Outflank : 1 / 0 deliver : 2/- Team : Perdita Nephilim Francisco + LLC Abuela Nino Papa Santiago Undercover reporter Nino from the shadows on one corner, the undercover unburied in the other corner. This denied the opponent's outflank. Perdita and Francisco occupied the center. Perdita and and undercover delayed the opponent's scoring. The family seems a horrible pick for monks : the rely on Chi to have a good def/will stat but family models have excellent attack scores. The undercover is wonderful if the opponent needs lots of scheme and use a keyword with minions as scheme runners. Despite the tax, he was a key model in this game.

So sad, she would be perfect with Sonnia, Perdita and LJ in a boss only 0 SS team

That's a stat 5 opposed duel with a not included on a model that con not use soulstones. I would not choose a scheme that depends of this, except if I plan to use this attack on my models.

The brutal emissary always seemed a little strange as model. The peace keeper is too small to be as impressive as he is supposed to be.

Stunned and staggered will function. Distracted is a little different ; Distracted : This model's Actions that target an enemy model suffer a to their duet etc... If you obey an ennemy model to attack an ennemy model, the obeyed is friendly to his target. The duel is not affected by distract

During 30 secs, I hoped that I misread the mounted guard. But he really does not have run and gun - my bad, I missed the part about the upgrade.

thanks for the report !

50 SS game yesterday that ended on turn 3, out of time. 4-1 for guild (Nellie) vs Ten Thunder (Asami) Corner deployment, turf war (2-1), claim jump (2-0), take prisoner, power ritual, detonate charge (0-/), dig their graves (/-0) Team : Nellie + printing press LJ + LLC (claim jump) Undercover reporter Exorcist Lone Marshal Turn 1 : LJ put pressure on opponent by going in an house on center of the map on turn 1. Asami invoked an obsidian Oni, Minako summoned 2 Katashiros. Both teams capped their turf, TT team split to go on both corners. Turn 2 : Lone marshal exorcise the Obsidian Oni (opponent turf uncapped) and kills the totem. TT caps 1 turf of a corner, and Mei Feng places around the second. A jorogume is summoned, he one shot the exorcist, no turf turned. The bulk of TT tries to go around the center tile to stay out of LJ's place range. An undercover pops near the opponent's deployment on zone and threaten his turf. LJ spends her turn by scheming, juggernaut, capping center turf and scores claim jump. Turn 3 : Jorogumo is exorcised by Marshal. Nellie goes on Mei Feng's corner, caps the turf and slows her. Undercover protects the turf, but get low on life. A new jorogumo is summoned and gets the lone marshal to 1 life. Lady Justice kills a katashiro (corner uncapped) and gets back on middle to protect the turf. The game ends here. I would have been swarmed by opponent on next turns, but I had a big advantage on points, and 5 soulstones remaining to keep Nellie and LJ alive. The game would probably have ended on a score of 5-4. A standard reporter team would have been shred to pieces by flickering onis. I tried to go full on out of keyword with important or counterpick models. It worked fine. Jady Justice with LLC is expensive as second master, but she can score easily claim jump and has a huge presence on map

Deployment wedge Team : Nellie + LLC, printing press, Phiona, Grimwell, 1 nurse heartbane, 2 field reporter, 1 false witness Opponents : Viktoria chambers x 2, Parker Barrows, student of conflict, vanessa chambers, Bishop Ronin Victory 4-3. Strat : plant (3-2) Schemes : power ritual (0 for both teams), deliver a message (1 Guild), Harness the ley lines, detonate charges, assassinate (1 outcast) My team was barely alive on turn 5, but I took the advantage by removing ennemy bombs on turn 2 and 4

I also like these new sculpts. Lady J is in a more agressive position, it fits her better than her previous one. I guess that the sword do not fit the scabrad, but that's not realluy a problem. A friend modified my M2E LJ, putting her on a death marshell coffin, I will keep her. But this one is nice. The Judge is wonderful. For the totem, the scale of justice is clearly unbalanced, it fitts really well with the idea of the guild. I do not like the piece on its mouth. I really wonder with the death marshall have these knee caps. Is it to protect them while they are skating on their coffins ? Without this, they would be perfect. This is a good box in my opinion, but Lady Justice alredy has many good models. It would maybe have been better to get alternates for models that do not have one.

Modify some dogs models. Add aa coffin on their back and ask Wyrd to add living on their profile

Rulebook page 12 : Yes, correct, you must succed

Definition of special restriction in rulebook : Special restrictions are not defined as only limit on targeting. There is a "such as" explaining that this is an example. This is still not clear for me. As said, I understand your point of view, but I am not yet convinced and both interpretations seems legit.

This is not clear. I have put a post in the rule section using Dashel totem as example. Both cost and special restrictions are in italic. There is no clear way to split them. They are resolved on different timing. I would tend to say that everything related to paying soulstone, health, discarding cards/upgrades is a cost, while target selection is a special restriction. But I understand your point of view.

I have troubles with the difference between cost and special restriction. The action of this totem is a friendly push with the following trigger : Internal Affairs: Choose a friendly Scheme Marker within 2" of the target. Drop an enemy Scheme Marker in base contact with the target, then remove the friendly Scheme Marker and draw a card. Is the italic part a cost or a special restriction ? I would probably say a special restriction, but I am not sure. It is clear that without scheme, it will not happen, but when do we choose the scheme ? On trigger declaration because it is a cost, or on trigger resolution because it is a special restriction ? There is nothing to pay here, so I guess it is a special restriction, but the line is not perfectly clear here and the other interpretation also makes sense.

If the range was not 0", boxing would allow DM to disengage easily and scheme. It would make them slow but very durable scheme runners. Without this, I do not see how i can use them effectively. They may be durable front liner, but their team do not really need them. With other masters, 6 points is expensive for other teams.

Without. The lines are too visible on the mats. They are useful on deployment. They can even be useful during game. But I hate to see them on pictures. If they were more integrated in the drawings and were not the first thing I see on picture, it would be perfect.

The first and 3rd questons are the same There's a podcast from Schemes and Stones with good advice about your hand, but to sum up _ if you have important static TNs, mentally set aside the cards needed (ie : a middle ram for rider's action, maybe a 10 for Abuela's obey, etc...) _ keep your two best cards to cheat important actions, and a middle or two for a damage cheat on a 2/4/5 attacks, except on turn 1 if you are too far The other cards can be used to fuel A por El. If you are sure to draw more after, either with familiy values or Judge, use more on A por El, but you should rather use the draw before lowering too much your hand. I am not sure for your Nino question. If you ask whether he is a good target for another family's A por EL, I would say no. If you ask if Nino is a good model to use A por el. , yes of course ! He is even the best model for this. I believe that Nino Ortega is good for learning the team : keep him for last activation. He will get a card back with his shot, and this card will be used for the important A por el that will score points. I hope that I will be able to go without him, but at the moment, he saved me too many points on games.

It has changed. There was an aura that buffed only Wardens, but it does not exist anymore.

I got a match Perdita VS Von Schill on Standard deployment / Turf War / Hold Up Their Forces - Vendetta -Dig Their Graves - Claim Jump - Harness the Ley Line My team was : Perdita - 4 SS Nephilim Rider Santiago + LLC Papa Loco Nino + expert marksman Abeula Effigy Victory 5/3 for Perdia. 3/2 on strat, 2/1 on vendetta, other schemes faileds Thoughts : _ the expert marksman on nino seemed a good idea vs Von Schill, but I used the armour piercing trigger only once. Otherwise, it was family value. This upgrade was not useful. _ The rider is really worth 11 points. Even thought it was decisive in its actions on last turn, it forced my opponent to take costly decisions _ I always thought that the effigy upgrade was a bad idea. The emissary on turn 3 seems really late, and the effigy gets a big target on his head on previous turns. With a rider, the opponent gets too many hjigh value targets and the effigy may survive long enough to change in emissary./ I will try this in another game _ I do not know how I would play family against an agressive and fast moving team like Victorias. I will have to try a match up like this one. I really like the family in this M3E !

I must disagree. A 5" push on LJ is equivalent to a melee 6 with 3 min damage with probably . It heps a lot

I look forward to this !

I used this only once to shoot a scheme runner lonely on a side. 1 walk from an obey, 2 walks on activation, and Lucius shoot twice without focus. Only once, but it made a difference in this game.

Hi everyone. I would like to build a new Wiki for Malifaux, adapted to M3E, in the spirit of Pull my Finger. Before starting anything, I want to check if people are ready to add content to this wiki, if there is not already another project, and if this will not be in conflict with the possible update of a Malifaux app.

I do not have the last version of the false witness with me, but if he keeps his anti cheating aura, he can be a huge asset to help Lucuis' sniping... He just has to survive one activation without manipulative
