Go full power move and give everyone A4 sized stat cards

I wish I could click the "haha" more than once.

this is brilliant.

I just realized that "sloped Terrain" is gone.

has this rule been sacked during the beta or was it lost in Transition to the final product?

I guess it was kinda obsolete because it is implied by common sense?

thanks a lot, that was our consesus as well but we wanted to make sure.

so just to clarify: the distance of the model on top to the ledge of the Building does not matter as Long as the model in front of the Building is not within the shadow?

So this might have been tackled in the beta, if so: I'm sorry but I cannot remember anymore.

If one Model is Standing on a Piece of Terrain ( blocking, height 4) and another model is Standing in front of the Terrain Piece (and outside of its shadow) at which Point do they have Line of sight to each other? the whole time? even if the model on top is standing 4 Inches away from the edge for example? Since we draw line of sight from the top down view, the distance to the ledge should not play any role, right? (onle in the case if the other model is Standing in the shadow) or am I missing something? (evelation rules from M2E are gone)

apparantly the retailer of my choice asked their Distributor and as it turns out they weren't aware of special orders.

By now said distributor has tried to contact wyrd about this. Things seem to get into motion :)

thanks for the feedback and the insight.

I hope I didnt come across as rude or anything. I'm just mildly frustrated

I guess I have to focus on the retailer(s)

Thanks for letting us know.

Unfortunately, all we can do is provide an option to our distributors and retailers that we believe will be beneficial to them and their customers. If they choose not to provide Special Orders because they feel it is right for their business, there's little we can do to stop that decision. 

While that particular source might not be taking part in our Special Orders program, keep an eye out for other places in your area. We've been working with all of our distributors in regards to this program, so there is a chance that another store in your region would be willing to provide this as an option.

 

I appreciate that very much, thank you.

However I have to say... "keeping an eye" open is rather vague and hard to do. There aren't that many local retailers, even in the bigger cities like Berlin and Cologne. I will ask the two local stores in cologne I know of but to be honest I really don't understand why wyrd does not provide a list of participating retailers. I guess this is a lot, especially if you want to list retailers in the US but on the other Hand: somewhere has to be a list like that. Who not make it public? the retailers surely won't mind since it's free advertisement.

(that being said, I can imagine there are plenty of legal implications, why you cannot do that)

Edit: I'd like to add: if anyone of my european friends in this Forum knows any european online-sotre that'll provide Special orders, please let me know

Special orders, either directly from us, or from your retailer through distribution is available both inside the US and outside. That being said, it is only for boxes that have been combined or changed up in a manner that say only a single new miniature has been placed within a box (we'll use Alphonse for instance) and the only way you could get it would be to purchase the box all over again. We're not interested in jacking over our customers like that - but we're also not going to go in and allow this for each and every model in the line as that's frankly entirely too much work and ultimately self-defeating.

so, regarding that: Today I asked a german online-retailer about Special orders. (fantasywelt.de) They are rather big so I figured they might be able to provide Special orders.

Customer Service told me they won't be getting any Special orders. just regluar boxes and sets. Thats a big dissapointment to be honest. Ordering stuff from your Webstore results in at least 25dollars in shipping. So I have to pay 25 bucks in shipping costs (plus a possible trip to customs, where I might have to pay an additional tax)  just to avoid paying 25 bucks in obsolete models (because I already own them).

So what I am wondering now: Is that a blunder on the retailers part or on yours? and is there a way for me to get "Special orders" in Germany without ordering internationally?

I haven't played Malifaux for very long, but the Gremlins always kind of struck me as being similar to Warhammer Goblins. 

So that, besides other Things, had drawn me towards Gremlins when I startet Malifaux. I thought of them like the "O&G of Malifaux".

But soon after playing my first games back in M2E I realized that they are only marginally like that. They did very high amounts of damage while being very reliable and selfsustaining. Yes, Dumb Luck was very harmful on themselves but Slop Haulers were so good in mitigating those self damaging effects. I always felt they were very reliable yet still full of flavor and comedic value. And during the Beta a bit of that flavor got lost in Translation I. But then again we have great new additions like the spit hog and Gerogy&Olaf.

"Where is the Snottling Pump Wagon?  Why don't Doom Divers fail like they used to?  Why can't I mix and match Goblin tribes only to have them crumble as they fight against themselves?"

I think that this is awhole nother can of Worms. Age of Sigmar did terrible Things to Warhammer, if you ask me.

So, what have they done with the Bayou Faction that makes it still feel like a bunch of drunk rednecks living on the fringes of society and making it up as they go? 

They drink lots of moonshine (I think the "Trusty Flask" is much more frequent now than it used to be), they still have great self-damaging potential thanks to many stray shots and they still have lots of flavor.

Will there be a way to get stat cards for single models. For mei feng I would need to get the faction updates for arcanist, ten thunder and bayou, whilst only using two bayou and four arcanist models. 

Also please don't forget Europe

I suppose you'll be able to get single cards via drivethrurpg ?

That seems plausible at least

This is amazing. Thank you Wyrd!

I hope stuff will be available not only in the US and Canada but Europe aswell. I need my singleton Alphonse and  Georgy&Olaf.

I love the concept art. Georgy looks so cute!

But it seems the proportions have changed in the 3D render, with a bigger torso and very small feet. And Olaf is less hunched.
Subtle changes, but they make the model lose some of it's charm.

Maybe I'm being a little too harsh? It might be because I'm used to a 1:1 concept to model translation from Wyrd.

there are some changes, yes.  I also prefer the Artwork but I don't think it's a big deal.

I love this. Thank you.

At the very least make Accidental Roll Over built in...

well then it wouldn't be accidental anymore also an inbuilt 5-Inch push without any real restrictions at the end of each attack... don't you think that'd be a bit too much?

Also he has that trusty flask and high WP. I don't think he's too squishy for what he brings to the table: High mobility and a second source of blood poisoning.

I think the Burning does not need any further synergies in Tri-Chi. It's just what it is: another DoT that ticks along with the poison.

Moon shinobi, as mentioned before, are just bad (especially compared to Fremented Monks with the same cost)

they are not bad anymore if you ask me. the fixed drunken kung fu makes them pretty strong.

Whiskey Golem is actually more squishy than other 10 SS models (beer googles are not too reilable)

People have complained about the opposite being the case because of his high armor and DF.

Fingers needs some buff... replacing enemy scheme markers with our own is not good enough for 9SS model who is supposed to be a scheme runner. 

I don't think Fingers Role is to be a scheme runner. That used to be the case in M2E. Now he is more of an annoyance that denies schemes and slows down enemies. but for scheme running you should prolly use other models. Fingers does not run schemes. He runs interference.

Popcorn Turner is quite ok, brining buring to the crew. Pitty he has skills interacting with poison with no decent ability to apply it. That way he has to stick to some other models to be usefull. 

Wh I played him I used him to be all over the place thanks to his on the move and accidental roll over. He has two abilities to give a Little bit of poison and the rest of the Crew is supposed to spray the shine.

Cooper Jones, apart of summoning 1-2 gamin per game, is not that usefull, and to summon she needs some akaname of mechanized porkchop for scrap markers

I agree that cooper Needs some Setup but I read People saying that Whiskey gamin are actually really good scheme runners. I think Cooper is a "sometimes"-Pick depending on the Setup.

What I'm trying to say: Opinions about brewmaster seem to vary strongly. I loved every game with him and I found him and his Crew always to be pretty strong but not overwhelmingly so.

Drunken Kung Fu is good again. I'm okay with Moon Shinobi now

woah, newest update works fine with me. print it.

:D

I think Criers in conjunction with Bayou Gremlins should be tweaked. Threaten Beatings should work on Bayous regardless of the Family Gathering Upgrade.

Drunken Kung Fu on Moon Shinobi should be fixed or they should be buffed in another way.

Banjonistas worked well for me as a Walking Push-Machine. But I agree that their usefullness right now is kinda limited.

Similar to a certain factory in the Pixar Multiverse, our office is actually powered by the screams of frustrated hobbyists working on putting together our Malifaux Kits.

So separate feet will continue to be a Thing? Great! :D

I love the Art btw. I think it Looks like Misaki is done with playing games and down to Business!

I am still so mad about the nerf on drunken kung fu. I don't know what to say. The ability might not exist at all right now.

I know, you can still make use of it by distracting your moon shinobi but it's such a Setup! if they had a Mask inprinted on Have a Drink it might by mildly reliable

I am still so so so bummed by the nerf on drunken kung fu. Again: Yes, Shen Longs Drunken Kung fu needed a nerf but the moon shinobi? come on..... I don't want to see another Edition where These beautyful models will just not see a tabletop.

Please give them "drunken GREMLIN Kung Fu" or nerf Shen Longs Dmg Output instead of the ability itself. I don't know man....

Also Big Hat: Criers would be much more viable if threaten beatings would work on Bayou Gremlins regardless if they have been summoned with the Family gathering upgrade or not.

But keyword hiring is the best that could happen to friendly games and non-tournament players. You can actually buy a box an usw every model.

no more "yeah the totem the Master comes with is garbage. better get the orher one. oh and you don't need the minions from the box. instead buy two additional boxes of other stuff to fully enjoy this Master. also that Henchman from the other masters crewbox is clutch for this Master! buy the other  box as well!"

Oh for sure! Cranky should by no.means lose the suit on obey. and i think the potential to gain soulstones is great. 

And also the + Flip on initiative....

now that I thunk of it... he is fine 😀

I like the Art. He looks moe intimidating and not as slim/lanky now.

Also saying that he looks static.... have you seen his M2E art/sculpt? The m3e version is 3 times more dynamic!

Oh,Edit: i like the Coheed And Cambria reference in the title
