WolfDayDream Posted September 3, 2020 Report Share Posted September 3, 2020 So I hear there is NDA alpha/beta testing for TTB's latest expansion (I wonder if ttb is doing well enough or they just gonna kill it after Nightmares..) but as someone who wasn't aware of it so didn't request to join (not like I have a group to test with) I wanted to express what I hope we can get mostly Pursuits as I'm not picky about readings. I'm really hopeful for either a Puppeteer with marionettes or a summoner. I hope the Pursuits in Neverborn are more malevolent 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like, I know what models are Woes but I still have no real clue what a woe actually IS. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So I would assume its doing well enough that they have no current plans to kill it off. They also put out a general call for playtesters in all their systems at about the same time (It turns out it was last November, doesn't time fly). 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just worry about the popularity as I never hear anything about it on SM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like, I know what models are Woes but I still have no real clue what a woe actually IS. I agree with all of this. Speaking of Bully and Woes, Bully is the only pursuit we have so far that has strong interactions with WP checks (the Feast Of Terror Talent), so something along the lines Pandora and her Woes would be appropriate (and fun). The only other thing that I can think of is some Magia/a Pursuit that have strong interactions with sever/hazardous terrain, along the lines of Lilith. I know there's the Pioneer Pursuit but it's very, meh? I have some notes on potential buffs/alterations but i'd like to see first if we get anything in From Nightmares that buffs it by proxy, or overlaps to much with my ideas.

WolfDayDream Posted September 4, 2020 Author Report Share Posted September 4, 2020 Anyone but me want something like a Collodi or Dreamer themed class? Oh and a Pandora themed prestige pursuit be sweet 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Protector152 Posted September 10, 2020 Report Share Posted September 10, 2020 i mean if we are putting our wyrdest dreams out there, a pursuit that interacts with the Black Blood condition in Under Quarantine is what i'm hoping for, if only so i don't accidentally kill off my players the next time they encounter Nephilim.

Vorzakk 2.0 Posted December 8, 2020 Report Share Posted December 8, 2020 So, any news at all on that book becoming a reality? In late 2019 a staffer said 'next year', and we're starting to run out of that year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OssumPawesome Posted December 8, 2020 Report Share Posted December 8, 2020 Personally I'm hoping for some more in depth looks at some of the Neverborn power players. We have scant information on how things are run in each Neverborn's respective coterie and how precisely each different Neverborn infiltrates human society. Plus learning more about what exactly Mattheson is but it's likely we need to wait for more metaplot for that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Omenbringer Posted December 10, 2020 Report Share Posted December 10, 2020 I agree with Ossumepawesom, but would also love to see more of Malifauxs pre-history. Please give more info on the tyrant wars. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vorzakk 2.0 Posted January 8, 2021 Report Share Posted January 8, 2021 I just saw a preview page which included the short descriptions of seven pursuits and none of them sounded like a Prestidigitation equivalent to Dabbler, Graverobber, and Magewright. I love this game but I'm going to be really disappointed if they didn't include one. On a positive note, what was included sounds awesome! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it's not in this book, could we get it in an official supplement? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OssumPawesome Posted January 11, 2021 Report Share Posted January 11, 2021 Honestly, that's what the Illusionist from Into the Steam should have been. I'll be disappointed too. It's definitely needed for the game. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll be disappointed too. It's definitely needed for the game. Illusionist, as envisioned with lots of Manifested Powers, feels more like an Advanced Pursuit. You need multiple Magic skills to pull it off. It's a hard pursuit to pull off RAW without a lot of Magic Skill Kits or picking the Oxford Method. It would certainly be easier to pull off if you had some Destiny Steps under your belt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
