Akai Posted December 5, 2016 Report Share Posted December 5, 2016 (edited) Edit: Wyrd has a much better organized viewing of all the renders at this link here: https://www.wyrd-games.net/cult-of-the-burning-man From the Allegiance video...the models fit very well with the weird aesthetic stuff from Malifaux. The Warped ( 9 unique sculpts, 9 in a box) Twisted Horrors (9 unique sculpts, 9 in a box) Stalking Portals (3 unique sculpts, 6 in a box) Gorysche (Titan) Fenton Brahms (Commander) Adeodatos (Commander) Edited December 20, 2016 by Akai Added Wyrd's Link to All Renders 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MetaphoricDragn Posted December 5, 2016 Report Share Posted December 5, 2016 Gorysche continues to look amazing, but damn are the Twisted Horrors disturbing. THis faction might have a bit too much body horror to be my goto, despite how cool Gorysche and Twisted are. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Four_N_Six Posted December 5, 2016 Report Share Posted December 5, 2016 I've been drawn in. Was originally thinking Gibbering Hordes, but after seeing what else they have to offer I'm heading to the Cult. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
retnab Posted December 5, 2016 Report Share Posted December 5, 2016 I think the Cult is beating Abyssinia for me now, between the small glimpse of the rules we saw and the amazingly detailed models these guys seem great! I can't wait to hop all over the place with the portals mechanic Does anyone have an idea how the rule "The Burning Man Watches From Above" would work? I'm assuming it's any time an Ace goes to the discard pile (flipped, cheated, discarded) then you get a Shaken Token? That seems like you should reliably get a Glory a turn, right? I assume Glory only lasts one turn then? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-Loki- Posted December 6, 2016 Report Share Posted December 6, 2016 The only one I don't really like is Adeodatos. The rest are like a cool mix of Insidious Nightmares and Darkened. Stalking Portals look awesome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cinnamon Bear Posted December 7, 2016 Report Share Posted December 7, 2016 I have the most questions about the ECB Black Ops. He looks too....normal. Highly suspicious. And what does ECB stand for? Love the Fenton Brahms and Gorysche too! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MetaphoricDragn Posted December 8, 2016 Report Share Posted December 8, 2016 The crouching one still makes me think Changeling. Otherwise both could be illuminated proxies easily enough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Wallace Posted December 12, 2016 Report Share Posted December 12, 2016 Damn. I joked before but those models give Games Workshop a run for their money. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
retnab Posted December 15, 2016 Report Share Posted December 15, 2016 One thing I think should really be pointed out is that while all other shown units so far have 50% or higher unique sculpts for their units (5/9, 3/6), The Warped actually have 100% unique sculpts (9/9)! Just proves the Cult is the best (not a great sized image of them, but here they all are!) 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xavian and Deathgrip Posted December 15, 2016 Report Share Posted December 15, 2016 I do like how each of the warped are different from each other. Feels very thematic. Not a huge fan of the cult aesthic as a whole, I tend to prefer more ordered and noble looking designs. But Gorysche is amazing. Absolutely amazing.

Cinnamon Bear Posted December 15, 2016 Report Share Posted December 15, 2016 I am so torn between the Cult and Gibbering Hordes, to be honest. I love the underwater theme but the Gorysche really is the best looking Titan. I also really want to see/learn more about Fenton Brahms and the ECB Black Ops Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
retnab Posted December 15, 2016 Report Share Posted December 15, 2016 I was torn between Abyssinia and the Cult all up until actually seeing the full unit sculpts. So much variety in each unit won me over 1000% And I agree Cinnamon Bear, I really want to know more about the rest of the Cult models! We've seen (at least in part) 6 cards for the 10 revealed models, and of the remaining the ECB Black Ops has me really curious as to what they do in the Cult. They seem a little more organized(?) than the rest of the mad rabble. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cinnamon Bear Posted December 15, 2016 Report Share Posted December 15, 2016 I suddenly really wish there was a Burning Man faction in Malifaux too. I think the Gorysche alone is swinging me into the cult's direction despite my love of the ocean and sea monsters. I guess I could get both but then I'd feel like I was missing a "normal"-ish faction for demoing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Neverborn and Jacob Lynchs theme are really comparable in terms of Malifaux but in terms of overlap I think its perfect. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
horvagab Posted December 15, 2016 Report Share Posted December 15, 2016 You know.... Cult is the one Allegiance I'm not that interested in, not a big fan of body horror. But them Stalking Portals Them be awesome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

retnab Posted December 16, 2016 Report Share Posted December 16, 2016 We now have better pictures of the Stalking Portals, Twisting Horrors, and The Warped! They look fantastic! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
