scottb Posted September 25, 2015 Report Share Posted September 25, 2015 Hey all, getting back into Malifaux in a few weeks. Books, cards, etc ordered but wondering if (due to all the changes) there's any models I should consider getting early on. Here's what I currently have:Somer, 4 Mosi'sOphelia, Rami, Raph, Francois, Pere, 3 Young UnsHog Whisperer, 2 Slop Haulers, Taxidermist, McTavish, PigapultWarpig, Gracie, 3 Stuffed Pigs, 5 Pigs8 Bayou'sIn time I think I will probably get the Zoraida box.Thanks in advance for any advice.

Dirial Posted September 25, 2015 Report Share Posted September 25, 2015 Merris brings high mobility Scheme control, and protection from blasts. Burt brings crowd control, damage and tankiness. Trixie... what doesn't Trixie add? She makes Gremlins better, moves models around, does Schemes, does damage, is tanky, controls Initiative (very rare trait), and is one of the most funny jokes in the game.In my eyes, every Gremlin crew should start with a Slop Hauler and Trixie, and then decide on the Master. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If not, go to 5), if you did take Ulix, go to 7).5) Take a Rooster Rider.6) Strongly consider taking another Rooster Rider. Take into account whether Make Them Suffer is present in the Scheme pool and also briefly consider whether or not the Strategy is Reckoning.7) Fill your crew.8) Win the game! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scottb Posted September 29, 2015 Author Report Share Posted September 29, 2015 What number of soul stones do people play at for a game at their gaming club? Reading the rulebook last night it seems to suggest 41+ would be of the order for an evening's game. In previous editions we generally didn't play more than one game per evening. Looking at Pull My Finger, it suggest 50SS is about the new norm. Is that right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cryion Posted September 29, 2015 Report Share Posted September 29, 2015 50ss is the way malifaux is supposed to be played Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PraetorDragoon Posted September 29, 2015 Report Share Posted September 29, 2015 This is correct. The game is mostly tested and balanced around 50ss. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Absolution Black Posted September 29, 2015 Report Share Posted September 29, 2015 This is correct. The game is mostly tested and balanced around 50ss. Unless you are me, then you could have however many soulstones and you would still suck! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
