Popular Post Nef Posted July 25, 2018 Popular Post Report Share Posted July 25, 2018 Man, in Malifaux, secrets sure can be tough to keep! This particular little secret is so exciting that there has already been a lot of buzz around it. Now we are ready to share some of the official details with you guys! Third Edition is coming! You can see all sorts of cool art and get tons of details on the website . In addition, I have highlighted some of the most exciting changes coming to Third Edition. New art and new models! Everyone loves fancy looking things and Third Edition has some beautiful art and new models. Optimized core rules. We have taken the wrinkles and issues from Second Edition and ironed them out. We have also slimmed down conditions. Instead of hundreds of conditions, we now have 11 conditions that help players focus on skill and strategy rather than memorization. A full release. That's right, every model from Second Edition will be updated to Third Edition at launch. All your models will have stat cards available at release. A Closed Beta that ANYONE can apply to! All you have to do is head over to the website. Easy access to stat cards and rules at release. What more can we say? We are so excited for Third Edition and making Malifaux the greatest game out there! We will be offering demos of Third Edition in our booth (#1129) at Gen Con and be answering tons of questions leading up to and during the event. There's never been a better time to cross through the Breach and enter the world of Malifaux! 11 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shadowfane Posted July 25, 2018 Report Share Posted July 25, 2018 So.... I hesitate to ask this, since I don't want to sound negative.... But have you actually deleted Masters such as Lilith/Nico/Collodi from the game?... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WWHSD Posted July 25, 2018 Report Share Posted July 25, 2018 "All your models will have stat cards available at release." So are Nico, Lilith, Ramos, and Collodi going to become "Counts As Models"? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gnomezilla Posted July 25, 2018 Report Share Posted July 25, 2018 Well, that was a storm in an oil bottle and no mistake. Now that this is official...that faction art is beautifully ornate and I’d like to transfer it to my card box, please (the current Guild logo is on there now but I never liked how that looked). May I? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But have you actually deleted Masters such as Lilith/Nico/Collodi from the game?... Excellent question! Some of the Masters have suffered setbacks that have removed them from Malifaux's stage. Lilith has been imprisoned within Nythera, Nicodem was killed by Lady Justice, Ramos is locked up in a Guild jail cell in Vienna, and Collodi... well, it's final fate hasn't been revealed quite yet. All of these Masters (and their totems) will receive updated stat cards in M3E in a special "Dead Man's Hand" pack. By default, they will not be tournament legal (due to being absent in the story), but an option will exist to allow these "Dead Man's Hand" Masters to be played in tournaments that wish to allow it. 13 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thedeadclaw Posted July 25, 2018 Report Share Posted July 25, 2018 What happens to models that are masters now but won't be with release? I'm just about to buy into this game and want to make sure I don't pick a soon to be obsolete box set 🤣 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Janje Posted July 25, 2018 Report Share Posted July 25, 2018 Do you guys have an ETA for this? Just so i know whether or not to pick up a couple of cool boxes for my faction, like Lynch for Neverborn etc? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sybaris Posted July 25, 2018 Report Share Posted July 25, 2018 I must say i am extremely pleased to see that Nekima finally gets her spot as a leader. I've been waiting for this since 1st edition! As a side note, my wife wholeheartedly agrees that there was too many conditions to remember. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Figgyfigs Posted July 25, 2018 Report Share Posted July 25, 2018 I absolutely love the faction illustrations—amazing job, and hats off to your art team! Also, Rasputina's ice boots look dope, and I love her more action-oriented pose. Can you elaborate a bit on how thematic crews will work? How much flexibility will there be for variations in list-building? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Justin Posted July 25, 2018 Report Share Posted July 25, 2018 This is super exciting! I love that you're cutting the fat and slimming things down to 11 conditions. That is plenty for tons of flavor and brings the focus on playing the game instead of memorizing a million cards! Also, I LOVE that burning goes up during the end phase. Very thematic. It's really cool you can take two masters together. I can't wait to see how this works! The new card layout looks AWESOME! And it seems like you're advancing the story too! Nekima in, Lilith out! Malifaux marches forward! Love it, love it, can't wait to read that story! Really, it all just sounds great all around. Once this is out I'll be playing Malifaux regularly again. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Purple Mist Posted July 25, 2018 Report Share Posted July 25, 2018 "All of M3E's updated stat cards and its rules will be available at launch for free." What exactely that does mean? Are you referring to a digital, printable edition? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Janje Posted July 25, 2018 Report Share Posted July 25, 2018 Woah Woah Woah.... I was all for these changes until i noticed one thing, that simply MUST be a mistake... Lenny isn't a Master!!!! 1 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gnomezilla Posted July 25, 2018 Report Share Posted July 25, 2018 Personal tally: 8 masters spanning 3 factions, but 6/8 Guild, becomes 2 deGuilded into one faction I will not pursue and one I probably won’t, 1 removed. 1 promoted, 1 dual factioned into secondary faction I do own. 1 still around that I did not think would survive any sort of cull. 1 I don’t own but he’s in my faction now, no more of this ‘but Gnomezilla, you don’t want to pick up gremmies, do you’ nonsense! Infamy awaits! With a tiny teddy onboard! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Without going into too much detail just yet, hiring within a Master's keyword will be affordable and will provide options that reinforce that Master's central theme. If you want to go outside a Master's keyword, you'll be able to do so within your faction, albeit at a minor penalty. All in all, we're reinforcing thematic crews while still allowing people to explore other options within their faction. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
