Keltheos Posted August 4, 2009 Report Share Posted August 4, 2009 The Necropunks are generic Resurrectionist models. They're not as strongly affiliated with a Master as the Belles or Punk Zombies are. Leveticus likes them too... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DangerousBeans Posted August 4, 2009 Report Share Posted August 4, 2009 (edited) Gods Damn! I didn't notice these while ordering! The necropunks are awsome, I'm still not sure about how far I'm going to take Resurrectionists though so I'll wait and see what they're like. I'll definitely be wanting the Acolyte, Kitties and Piggies though! Edit: Ordered them anyway. I've been awake for about 40 minutes and already spent around $130! (which is apparently around £75) no lunch for me today! Edited August 4, 2009 by DangerousBeans Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Isoulle Posted August 4, 2009 Report Share Posted August 4, 2009 Very nice.... well everything. I was going to lay down a lot of money at Gencon but looks like I'll be spending even more. Oh well, you know what they say about a fool and his money. Might pick up some December Acolytes, they're good models. Though I must admit they look a little more Fantasy than most Malifaux stuff. Not a bad thing but a very stark contrast. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Illustrange Posted August 4, 2009 Report Share Posted August 4, 2009 Are you sure they aren't affiliated ? They look like a McMourning creation though. At first I actually tought they were steampunk necromancer creations (techy bits etc.) but luckily they are not mercs, but resurrectionists, and indeed will fill up a mcMourning group nicely first dozen wyrd minis were must haves for me, then there were a few "like em, but dont desperately need them" and recently its gone all gotta catch them all again >_< the nurses, must haves and with all the new gremlin stuff, it means Im going to go for an outcast faction after all (tough, all things considered, the resurrectionists is my subfaction of choice and I have all its members so far ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nilus Posted August 4, 2009 Report Share Posted August 4, 2009 Are you sure they aren't affiliated ? They look like a McMourning creation though. Nicodem and McMourning share custody of these guys. They work well in both crews. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WEiRD sKeTCH Posted August 4, 2009 Report Share Posted August 4, 2009 All of the releases look super sexy to me. I wasn't picturing the December Acolyte that way, but it looks sweet none the less. (I was picturing an insane Eskimo. ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redstripe Posted August 4, 2009 Report Share Posted August 4, 2009 Might pick up some December Acolytes, they're good models. Though I must admit they look a little more Fantasy than most Malifaux stuff. Not a bad thing but a very stark contrast. The December Acolytes are members of a cult movement in Malifaux associated with an idol discovered in the wilds outside the City. These misguided individuals might be better described as a tribe and indeed, many members of this cult have regressed into a feral state of mind. They live in caves and primitive shelters in the mountains above the mines and this barbaric existence necessitates the use of crude, easily fashioned tools and weapons to support a hunter-gatherer lifestyle. These crude weapons are none-the-less quite effective in their raids on supply wagons bound for more remote mining locations. Those who have escaped these raids have described horrifying accounts of cannibalism perpetrated by these feral men and women. For now these accounts are regarded with extreme skepticism. The December cultists are associated with the Arcanists only because of the messiah-like status Rasputina holds within the tribe. Their association with the Arcanists through Rasputina is thought to have allowed access to Arcanist soulstone, providing for the empowerment of shamans that lead these tribes.

Though I must admit they look a little more Fantasy than most Malifaux stuff. Not a bad thing but a very stark contrast. I have to agree with you on that. They do really break from what I've seen of Malifaux so far. On the other hand, as a huge fan of fantasy in general, I'd love to get my hands on one.

EricJ Posted August 4, 2009 Report Share Posted August 4, 2009 well, it fit the theme for what the Acolyte was, so we thought it worked Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DangerousBeans Posted August 4, 2009 Report Share Posted August 4, 2009 I don't see a problem with the sculpt in that respect , think he'll sit on the table well alongside Rasputina. All I will say is that they don't look very feral, I got a very "druid" feeling rather than "caveman/savage". Nothing a dirty paintjob can't fix though! Are the arcanists the only faction with "swarms"? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peterdita Posted August 4, 2009 Report Share Posted August 4, 2009 All I can say about the Acolyte is DAMN PIANTJOB!! Nice freehand Jessica, if you're reading this... wow. Thank you Wyrd for all the sweet new models and damn you from not helping me save some money. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrazyBones Posted August 4, 2009 Report Share Posted August 4, 2009 That December Acolyte is hella cool! Well done gang. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pavic Posted August 5, 2009 Report Share Posted August 5, 2009 I will definitely be picking up some acolytes and hoarcats in addition to my other planned purchases at Gencon. Looks like I may really be scrapping my plan to start out with two factions and just go straight Arcanist. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EricJ Posted August 5, 2009 Report Share Posted August 5, 2009 Yeah, Jess really did an Ace paint job on that Acolyte, we like keeping her around Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
