Platov Posted July 9, 2018 Report Share Posted July 9, 2018 OK, here we go. Our nightmare box. My little pony - themed Ulix. Opinions?) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fawoosh Posted July 9, 2018 Report Share Posted July 9, 2018 If Ulix wasn't so weak I would be more excited about this. I doubt I'll pick it up, as I like the game more than the hobby, and considering I already have Ulix and he sees very limited play as it is I see no reason to.

PolishSausage Posted July 9, 2018 Report Share Posted July 9, 2018 I think you have to abuse from the shadows 5ss boars to make ulix work, hire 4-6 minimum. Than have 1 "big" pig cart Ulix around. In that sense I do see the attraction from the box as long as I can get my hands on 3 more ponies (for nice round 6). the 2/4/6 dmg track on a 5ss model is bonkers good.

cfrag Posted July 9, 2018 Report Share Posted July 9, 2018 It's actually the first nightmare edition crew that I don't like The problem is not the concept in itself, but somehow i dislike the models. It's a shame, since gremlins are my only faction and its kinda ironic that these will probably be the only limited/alt models on the faction that I won't get 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
green-n-dumb Posted July 9, 2018 Report Share Posted July 9, 2018 i dont know what to do with 5 wild boars. also it seems weird without addition of rainbow themed warpigs and piglets. but it looks very good, looks like time of mr.Ulix has come.

wobbly_goggy Posted July 9, 2018 Report Share Posted July 9, 2018 Looks more like piglets and possibly a flying piglet than wild boars. The nightmare box doesn't have to be exactly the same as the regular box minis-wise (plus wild boars are pretty useless) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adran Posted July 9, 2018 Report Share Posted July 9, 2018 Without a base shot, it looks like1 small pony for Penelope and 3 larger ponies, for the boars. But who knows... I would be surprised to see more pony models at black Friday, but who knows. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DanteJH Posted July 9, 2018 Report Share Posted July 9, 2018 I’m very disappointed at the new box, they could have done so much more with the Ulix or any other master. For me, ponies just comes off as lazy, strays further away from the solid and attractive themes the game started with and it’s not what I want from a nightmare box... ...but I’m still buying it... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Keenan) Posted July 10, 2018 Report Share Posted July 10, 2018 I like it well enough, but it isn't for me. It's fun and odd and frankly, my little pony is the stuff nightmares are made of. It just doesn't grab me the way the Dark Carnival, Wild Ones, or Xmas Rasputina did. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wildcard626 Posted July 10, 2018 Report Share Posted July 10, 2018 Think they could have done so much more feel rather let down . Must have took them 5 minutes to come up with that idea .... Very lazy wyrd 3 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wizuriel Posted July 10, 2018 Report Share Posted July 10, 2018 I like it, but really hope to see a black Friday follow up with piglets and warpig 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Impact UK Posted July 10, 2018 Report Share Posted July 10, 2018 I can see why a lot of Gremlin players are disappointed, this is not in the same league as the Dark Carnival, The Wild Ones, Curiosity Killed the Cat & the Alternate Rasputina crew boxes. But it is a rather fun and quirky box with a theme that no other crew comes close to. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boon Posted July 10, 2018 Report Share Posted July 10, 2018 Okay. I can understand that this is not everybody’s cup of tea but so what. I love it because I love the option to twist it… and this is mainly due to Deadpool. Yes, I also hoped for something else but somehow along these lines as it fits the Gremlins… or at least my idea of Gremlins. A friend sent me the picture. The first second I was undecided but the second later I fell in love. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DonCheadle Posted July 11, 2018 Report Share Posted July 11, 2018 Do not, for one second, underestimate the power of Ulix. He's a lot better than people give him credit for. Also Boars are still pretty bad, even after the reduction. WHat Ulix needs is somewhere around 8 piglets, 2-3 War Pigs, a beater Pig, Old Major, and some Sloppos. I don't think I'll be getting this box. I like Ulix's regular aesthetics. I might use it later for a conversion, the Big Horse in particular could make for an awesome Rider mini. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Easter War Wabbit would fit in fine for the War Pig. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Necrogenis Posted July 11, 2018 Report Share Posted July 11, 2018 I'm all for this box. I keep picturing various scenes where important Malifaux characters get bit in the butt by a deranged looking pony. Just picture the look on your opponent's face as they watch Von Schill get eaten alive in a pile of voracious ponies. Sure the models themselves look a bit off for my tastes, but I'm buying this for the mental scars. Or the humiliation at the very least. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
azog Posted July 11, 2018 Report Share Posted July 11, 2018 I love this as well. Unfortunately I already have Ulix and am hesitant to buy him again. But we'll see.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrumpyGrandpa Posted July 12, 2018 Report Share Posted July 12, 2018 I really enjoy the quirky and fun theme of the box, but I already think that Ulix has a very fun theme. While I won't buy this box, I really look forward to seeing how people paint these. Really hope they supplement this with a Piglet / Warpig box tho' - As people have already mentioned, the Wild Boars aren't the most common pick in a Ulix crew. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PirateCaptain Posted July 12, 2018 Report Share Posted July 12, 2018 Honestly piglets would be enough... the alt war rabbit will be great looking with it, I'd be okay with just piglets (granted I'd be happy with more, but could live without) But Big Mac Warpig and Cutie Mark Crusader Piglets would be great 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cueball Posted July 14, 2018 Report Share Posted July 14, 2018 The more I think about it the more I see me playing a mixture of models, almost like a petting zoo gone mad. Just can't decide which model I would use for the master. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hound Grey Posted July 14, 2018 Report Share Posted July 14, 2018 Im a fan of the box, and not having Ulix its a certain buy for me. Do hope that some addons are made for black friday though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
