A group of friends were going to start paying Malifaux, we are going to start playing at 35ss, simply with a crew box.
I have already decided to play with Arcanists, but for my initial crew i'm in between Rasputina and Colette.
With Rasputina I like the concept of Ice Mirror, and I think will be easy to grasp, on the other hand I think that Colette will be much harder to gras, but feel more fun and rewarding when archieved.
Also, I don't know how good are their crews right of the box.
The last thing, as far as I know, both of them benefits mostly of the same models (Acolytes, Silent Ones, Ice Dancers...), so, will be easy to transition to the other as second master?
