hi all so I'm currently on exploring other factions through vassal (I'm not giving up on my one true love arcanists, just doing some academic research, the best way to know your enemy is to be your enemy right!) so I'm starting with TT though getting a feel for the basics of the faction. so what I'd like to know is what are some of the ways of getting card advantage in various factions and how cost effective are they, i mean everyone knows philip and the nanny plus other models or serena bowman/bloodwrech/doppelganger BDSM party but what about other factions? note i don't particularly need advice with arcanists, myranda and steamfitters i know about!

a hydra seems a great idea!! and yes a lion tamer would be great- i'd love it to have some kind of obey/prompt action it could use on beasts, but if you black joker it, the beast charges the lion tamer (trigger BJ,- One lash to many: has to be declared, target beast charges lion tamer)

yep i guess the reason you take performers is for the lure and the blowing up of scheme markers. however cojo/carlos can also blow up scheme markers

this is what you get for trying to do things from memory and not reading

a nurse with the new necromancer can also have a quite effective heal!

well being my first event it was realy realy good, very well ran, and realy enjoyable the only complaint was the fact i ended up with 2 byes (one due to uneven teams, one for facing the team with 4) but thats not something that could have been avoided realy

Glad I'm not the only one! can we reserve tickets at while this is being sorted?

I think the funniest control build i've seen is ramos with vox populi, child, lazarus, and amina nadu... you drop 3 strike markers a turn and turn 2 models in to peons... no idea if its good

having been thinking on this earlier, i've come up with a couple of options- some kind of beasts with regen- maybe some kind of actual scorpion or lizard showing its regrowing of limbs- you could even have it that if it takes a certain amount of damage the limb drops off as a scrap marker! also more beast henchmen, especially someone with poison synergies, lastly some kind of melee focused M&SU model, i guess its the miner but they just feel a bit meh

so heat wave.... how are people getting this to work? does she get instinctual from emmy then swoop in, flare attack a few times with flaming halo and then heat stroke? seems more complicated than grabbing and droping

i much prefer challange the crowd over imbued protection, does the same job but a lot better IMO

is there prizes for doing an iron scorpius (playing 5 different masters?)... if not is there anyone planning on joining me to do 5 different masters over the course of it? also are people planning on droping in on friday afternoon evening.... might be tempted to pop down to meet some of the guys and maybe even get a game?

as for masters i'd like to play there mostly ressers atm i'm mostly an arcanists but a beast heavy mcmorning build, either a showgirl or heavy terror inducing sheamus build, a Tara burying slingshot guild and a Reva flaming death pony build all seem fun for me! sadly i hardly get enough play from my arcanist models to make buying a 2nd faction worth while

fill the rest of the gang with steamfitters to weld metal plates to joss, maybe have a tool kit for joss to kill to generate scrap as well to give 3 of the steamfitters chance to give joss +3 armour

has anyone experience with a more controlling marcus build- the gods path etc.... what would you suggest going with him

The main issue i have with Sandeep is the fact he is so go in melee in my mind, lower his Gada stat and get rid of impossible to wound (maybe make his arcane shield to show his magic prowess, maybe -2 rather than -1 to compensate) yer maybe make beacon only minions and academics only (would make tuterlage a better option)

Why is Raspy so far down the list?

due to change of circumstances i'll be joining another team

the captain isn't frozen heart and doesn't have bulletproof himself.......

done

is there still team slots for this, I've been told there is a lot left so trying to get a team together (have arcanists, guild and someone who could do Outcasts, Ten thunders or neverborn as well as a potential Ten thunders Neverborn player)

DAM YOU WYRD- ONLY PICKED UP RASPY LAST MONTH!!!! in other news is there a chance we will get other frozen heart stuff in this style in the future?

online regually in u.k time and looking for games

so i've also just started up malifaux and also decided to take a look at the vassal module, no idea what i'm doing if anyone wants to give a hand (know the malifaux rules and rulebook strategies and schemes)

so finaly got my broken promises stuff and well.... there just seems to be a few little things that seem to have gone wrong....... first of all the new book has 3-4 mistakes in it at least in the fluff sections, not had a close enough look at the cards yet however it does ask the question who quality reveiws weird stuff? obviously there is also the issue with the missing guild cards, lucky no-one i know is affected by this. then miss deads card seems a lot thinner and flimsy than the other ones out there, though not sure how that stacks up to the other alternate stuff? and lastly i've got a free box of Thallarian Quellers in my box for some unknown reason, not that my local guild player is complaining about free malifaux!
