Been dabbling with Malifaux and more recently got freed up to get more invested. The group at the store I play with is fairly diverse among the factions. My order of favorite Masters are Toni, Collette, Mei and Marcus. Rasputina Kaeris and Sandeep are only at the bottom because I haven't explored them. I have some sense of what they do, though. I favor mobilty for the crews. Tricks and shenanigans like Rail walking, don't mind me, and prest o change o are a few examples. Seen a few times in games and tournaments I think to myself "I picked the wrong scheme" or " I m not going to score on the strat because the crew is fragile" I also not homicidal in games where some have come from war games. Even if I run Toni and Howard or Marcus and a pair of Cerberus (example only) I don't systematically kill models. 1. How do I decide on who to bring to which party? 2. Do I need to be homicidal in games (I'd rather use mind tricks, smoke and mirrors) 3. What do I do if I run Toni or Collette and they have Parker and Mad dog or T.T. and Seven Samurai. ( Or at least 3 Sam with mad ninja skills = those were painful games)

Simple questions, yet quite not, but i think it is easier and more useful to pin down where people doesn't play leveticus, rather than where he shines: - Which faction you deters you the most against Leveticus ? Does it stop from fielding him ? - Which strategies stops you from taking leveticus ? Why ? - And finally, which schemes do you find the harder to ? Will any of you stop you from taking leveticus ? If so, which one ?

On the last sentence of the Public Demonstration, "...the noted models within 4" and LoS of AN enemy Master, Henchman, or Enforcer." Between discussions with my locals and Podcasts I've listened to, my players are interpreting this phrase two different ways. A) "AN" means ONE individual enemy models. Arguement is that if writers meant that the Demo could be made on multiple enemies, AN would be written as "ANY." Also, I know fluffy-visuals should never be used to argue rules, but this "picket in front of A leader" better mimics the sceme title. B ) "AN" does mean ANY legal enemy in range and LoS, so the Demo-ers can picket in front of multiple models. Much easier to pull off, harder to detect/avoid as opponent. If the writers meant one target, they would have forced you to secretly note one preemptively. Thoughts?

Some of the new gaining grounds schemes have rules that require that scheme markers be more than 2" away from another scheme marker to count. Would this invalidate all makers within 2" (as RAW seems to indicate) or only additional markers (as RAI would seem to indicate). Example 1. There is a stack of 2 scheme markers on the centre line for convict labour. Are BOTH markers invalid for Convict Labour (as they are within 2" of each other) or only the additional marker, allowing for 1 marker to count towards Convict Labour. Example 2. There are 3 scheme markers 1.5" away from each other, like this SM<--1.5"-->SM<--1.5"-->SM. Are all three markers invalid for Convict Labour (as they are within 2" of each other) or may I elect to ignore the middle marker and score from the marker on the left and right, as these are more than 2" away from each other.

Burt jebsen has slippery that when targeted by an attack action, he may pick another target within 2. Vendetta reads, if noted models frist attack is against noted model, in this case burt, score 1 vp. How does that resolve? Is burt no longer the target or is he still "targeted" and i get my 1 point?

Interacting with scheme markers and other markers
benjoewoo posted a question in Malifaux Rules Discussion
If a model is base to base edge wise with a scheme marker, it is allowed to take the (1) interact to discard scheme markers in base to base. What if a model is on top of the scheme marker by any amount? For example, a 30mm model is standing on top of a marker by 15mm. For purposes of interacting with the scheme marker, or for strategies like squatter's rights/stake a claim, would the model then be able to interact with the scheme marker/strategy marker? -
I've played few games with Mister J, but a thought came to my mind: Where does Jack Daw and tormented posse shine at? I like his stories and the fact that he got promoted into master, this of course means I'll be getting his box no matter what people say. What are the schemes and strategies that benefit him or which ones he can ruin for his opponent? For example, what could this list play with(if there is anything). 50 point Scrap Jack Daw -- 4 Pool +Drowing Injustice [0] +Firing Squad Injustice [0] +Guillotine Injustice [0] +Twist and Turn [2] +Writhing Torment [2] Lady Ligeia [4] Bishop [10] Montresor [9] +Fearful Whispers [1] +The Creeping Terror [1] The Guilty [5] The Guilty [5] The Hanged [9] Mainly I prefer to have jack with everything that is injust, but that is only personal thing. Bishop got stuck in here because he is an generally great guy and capable of playing rough. And The Hanged is to frighten little children just in case. No Nurses made in to this party unfortunately.(McMourning had them working extra hours) But generally speaking, What are JD's strongest points?

Do the following schemes need to be revealed to get 3 victory points: Breakthrough Protect Territory Plant Evidence Power Ritual The way I interpret the rules for these schemes, is that it is possible to get 3 VP without revealing since it does not limit how many VP you can get for the scheme markers. Thoughts?

Welcome to M2E all! Had my first game of M2E last night and it was a blast. I really like how the rules have cleaned up and streamlined the game. As a new player, the game took half the time a game of 1.5 did. I found that I often had to refer to the rules to check schemes and strategies. With all the models, terrain, cards etc on the table it was a bit crowded to be having the book out as well. As a result, I quickly made some Strategy and Scheme reference cards. MALIFAUX GURUs/MODs/ASSASSINS please feel free to let me know if these are an IP violation and/or if you'd like me to remove them as no threat etc is intended. They created solely for the personal use of the players of Malifaux (preferably those that own a rulebook) as a reference and for ease of play. You can find the link to the Strategies Cards on my GoogleDocs here. Just download and print them off. Cut the cards out, fold them in half and laminate them or what have you & you're good to go. I will be finished the Scheme cards within the next couple of days as children & wife allow. When they are completed, I'll add the links to the documents here as well as in my signature. Feedback and constructive criticism is appreciated.

Hi, if you remember me guys, i'm the one who created Lazyfaux, a small webpage for an easier/faster encounter setup. I still don't get my claws on the new book, however i'd like to keep my app up-to-date. So here's the question: are there any changes in strategies or schemes, regarding wording/rules/whatever? Thanks in advance, Yosh -
Just a quick post for those that are looking for scheme markers. I was at Home Depot tonight and got some washers that were 31mm in diameter (1 1/4" fender washer, 3/16" hole), costing $0.14 each. Link to the bulk pack, but I bought individuals from the bins. Then found some big washers 50mm in diameter (3/4" cut washer), costing $0.20 each. Bulk link, but again I bought from the bins. I'm sure most hardware stores do this type of thing. I plan to paint/sharpie the sides for color distinction. You might have tokens and such already, but this was a good trip for me. Now gaming budget allows buying more models instead! Later. Clay
