Nicodem summoning question

[Strangely Brown]

Hi there,

 

Apologies if this has already been dealt with elsewhere, I couldn't find a way of searching the forum.

 

I'm looking to get back into Malifaux 2e with my resurrectionists.  I had bought a load of undead models from other factions, since in 1e Nicodem was allowed to hire them at face cost, without the extra-faction charge.  I don't see this rule on his card now, but I was wondering if he would be able to summon them using his re-animator spell?

 

Bottom line, I'm trying to understand how I can get the Killjoy into my Nicodem gang! 

 

 

Cheers in advance for any advice/pointers!

You can hire him, as he is a Merc.

 

There is no way for Nico to summon out-of-faction models. He summons Resser Minions, specifically.

 

And welcome back through the Breach!

You can hire Killjoy as a Mercenary, but you'll have to pay the extra stone for him. No more out-of-Faction Undead hiring, sorry.

 

Nicodem's summoning is limited to Resurrectionist Undead minions... that still gives him more variety than any other summoner in the game, though.

He's the new King of the Undead.

Not that there are that many undead outside Ressers anyway, 1 Guild, 1 Gremlin, 6 Outcasts (ignoring masters and totems).

[Strangely Brown]

Brilliant - thanks all for the quick and helpful responses!

 

I must say I am really impressed with the refresh so far - Malifaux 2e has quickly risen to my top 2 systems!

 

NIcodem crew fully painted and I will learn (the hard way!) how he ticks.

 

Seamus & Dougie on the painting table as we speak!

 

 

Thanks again for your help!

Now that's a trio of the most awesome masters in this game. McMourning, Seamus and Nicodem. My top3.

Can I ask just out of curiosity, what is the other system?

Glad to hear they're good - I'm going to need all the help I can get! 

 

The other system is Bushido by GCT studios - similar gang level encounters, and I really like the mechanic of splitting the combat dice pool between attack & defence - allows you to dial your aggression up & down more finely than most games.

 

But it's still a dice game (they hate me), so apples & pears with Malifaux - and the new Mailfaux models are excellent - really raising the bar I feel.

Even he can't get ALL the undead . . . He hasn't mastered the art of Stuffed Piglets.
