Cadaverousbirth Posted January 24, 2017 Report Share Posted January 24, 2017 I flip for a Wilderness check to purify the water. Black Joker. Well, I'm sure it's fine. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EnternalVoid Posted January 24, 2017 Report Share Posted January 24, 2017 This will be interesting. Feel kind of bad for my books, but if the rules are better then I will likely have an easier time keeping a group together. As for water, never drink the stuff...

Orboros Posted January 24, 2017 Report Share Posted January 24, 2017 This makes me incredibly happy. Got a slight shock when i read 2nd edition but as there are no compatibility issues i'm seeing it more as an update than a revamp. Really excited about the new fluff and all the mysteries being lifted.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Historically speaking, we're at the point where water is filtered, but chlorine purification is just now starting to catch on back on Earth. The mid 1890s were the first time someone said, "Hey, we could use chlorine to purify water," and London just started in 1905. It doesn't hit the US until 1908 or so.

It's likely no more dangerous than drinking from any other fast-moving river back on Earth. If you're worried about getting sick in Malifaux, the insects are a much, much bigger concern than whatever's in the water.

Probably better off with refreshment of the alcoholic kind or imported water which is most likely more exspensive then the former option and possibly still just from the river outside anyways.

IndyKophen Posted January 24, 2017 Report Share Posted January 24, 2017 Interested. How do I go about signing up to be a participant to the first Act of the A Stitch in Time adventure? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greebo Posted January 24, 2017 Report Share Posted January 24, 2017 I guess you have to wait until the 13th of February for more information to be revealed. I also guess participation sign up will be handled similarly to the divergent path participation, so via a separate section of the homepage.

Sybaris Posted January 24, 2017 Report Share Posted January 24, 2017 Forgive my sort of focused interest, but will it have any details on how the neverborn/nephilim rulers came to be? We know Lilith dethroned Nekima, but we don't know how Nekima came to rule in the first place. Who was the first ruler of Nephilims? That sort of thing (as far as i know, TTB did not explore neverborn as much as the other factions yet). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is more information on Lilith and Nekima than elsewhere, but the exact details of that arrangement will have to wait for the Neverborn supplement to be released. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sybaris Posted January 24, 2017 Report Share Posted January 24, 2017 Excellent. Currently we only have Malifaux First edition books' stories to go for and her M2E's description, which is abysimally short. The tease about a neverborn supplement is also highly appreciated. She's an awesome villain character, and utterly unexploited so far, so i hope she gets some camera time someday. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-Loki- Posted January 25, 2017 Report Share Posted January 25, 2017 Since it seemed to get lost on the last page: Will the change be drastic enough that converting characters over will be prohibitive? I just got the books and am interested in giving it a go, but if it catches on and my group likes it, I like the idea of cleaner rules and rebalanced mechanics, so I'd likely grab 2.0 unless the changes are enough to make that not so great an idea.

I think it will be a pretty easy conversion. Just go step from step down the Pursuits your players chose, replace the old Talents with one of the offered new Talents at each step, reallocate and skill points from discontinued skills, and make sure that the wording on your General Talents and Magia didn't change. We've moved the Skill Triggers from Into the Steam into the Core Rules and updated a few of them, but if you want to stick with the old Skill triggers, it probably won't break anything (and many of them didn't change in any case).

Got all the main books and expansions for Christmas just gone. Loving it. So to hear of a second edition this quick after getting the core books is kind of a gut punch. But at the same time not invalidating any of the other books is a great thing. And a very wise one. Just not sure how to mentally process this yet.... I feel you, got hooked up my self on couple of months ago and bought every book. So I have mixed feelings about this announcement Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vlad Posted January 25, 2017 Report Share Posted January 25, 2017 Does A Stitch in Time require Fated/Fatemasters Almanacs to play or Quote a rules sheet that includes a preview of some of the 2nd edition rules is enough to play the event "out of the box' (like An Easy Mark from WC14)?

I too nearly went ballistic upon seeing the words "2nd Edition" when Wyrd still hasn't released the Neverborn book yet. To not finish the expansion releases prior to introducing a new edition would be poor form, but then I read the phrase "compatible with the expansions" and now I'm Giddy as #$^%! Still anxious to see the rest of the expansions come out though. They flush out the world so well! It makes the Fate Master's job so much easier. I got the last of the expansions for Christmas and I must say all of the expansions are stellar. On a side note, I'm VERY curious about the new skills possibly being introduced. The skills section was in my opinion the weakest part of the system. I've had to invent multiple skills to accommodate my campaign as the breadth is just not there. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jason13 Posted January 26, 2017 Report Share Posted January 26, 2017 Forgot to ask, but is it too hopeful to think we might see some of the Nythera Fated characters make a reappearance in the Stitch in Time event? Specifically Butako? She was so awesome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
