edonil Posted February 4, 2013 Report Share Posted February 4, 2013 Haven't played against Sonnia before, but glad you like her avatar, it's a pretty one! How'd Mei Fang treat you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteamHammer Posted February 4, 2013 Report Share Posted February 4, 2013 Way too confusing. I'd do something then read that I could have done it for free as a trigger to something else. The rest of her box was pretty useless. Too slow to get anywhere. It's embarrassing to get outrun by skeletons. Wk 5! What are these, Ray Harryhausen skellies?

edonil Posted February 4, 2013 Report Share Posted February 4, 2013 Yeah, the skellies are a little weird... if you can find it, track down Ratty's cheat sheet for Mei, it helped me make sense of her. And honestly, Kang is probably one of the best models in the new book. Try using Seismic Punch through the Emberling to speed things up, it'll help some. Are you thinking about running her as Ten Thunders or Arcanist? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saighdear Posted February 4, 2013 Report Share Posted February 4, 2013 That's the very reason why I went for Misaki in the end, I'm only just learning the game at the moment. If I had fielded Mei Fang I don't think we would have been able to complete any demo games. *grin* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteamHammer Posted February 4, 2013 Report Share Posted February 4, 2013 She'll probably be used more as an arcanist. At some point this year I'll get some more models for her. Just need to paint some more of last years stuff. Misaki does seem the easier of the two. And the torakage seem to get places quicker. But I'll keep mixing them up. The earlier book masters need some love too so they don't sit on the shelf all the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saighdear Posted February 4, 2013 Report Share Posted February 4, 2013 Yeah she probably is more use as an Arcanist as the Metal Gamin and Rail Golem are Arcanist only. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edonil Posted February 4, 2013 Report Share Posted February 4, 2013 Good way of doing things, Steam. It'll be interesting to see where the meta shifts because of book four in terms of Master selection, honestly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteamHammer Posted February 4, 2013 Report Share Posted February 4, 2013 Maybe as plastic models are released they might get some rule changes. Poor Sonnia having to both spend a soulstone and use a 0 action just to have a chance at casting is a bit of a joke. Until she manifested then the only useful member of my crew was the effigy. Which seems way overpowered for its cost. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edonil Posted February 4, 2013 Report Share Posted February 4, 2013 Some of the effigies are definitely powerful...Brutal and Arcane are great ones, that's for sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

edonil Posted February 4, 2013 Report Share Posted February 4, 2013 Okay, this is very interesting to read.

Saighdear Posted February 4, 2013 Report Share Posted February 4, 2013 Same here, Googling it now. Unless your on about the video game Warzone 2100 which I do know of. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteamHammer Posted February 4, 2013 Report Share Posted February 4, 2013 That was a good read. Thanks. I always wondered what happened to TSR. I grew up with it on most of my books then a few years passed and I'd be wandering around a book store at uni and saw they were now Wizards of the Coast.

edonil Posted February 4, 2013 Report Share Posted February 4, 2013 Yeah, it was really interesting reading about it. Reading some of the stuff about their business model really reminded me of GW... which will be interesting to see as time goes on. Dust's post about the How Not to Run a Game Business grabbed my attention and is sucking away a lot of time right now... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteamHammer Posted February 4, 2013 Report Share Posted February 4, 2013 I've no idea how I'd run a game business. An LGS would be a nightmare. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

edonil Posted February 4, 2013 Report Share Posted February 4, 2013 Heh, I'm not interested in running a shop, or a business. Not my skillset. But I have something of a small compulsion to learn...acquiring information is motivation enough to read something. ---------- Post added at 05:49 AM ---------- Previous post was at 05:48 AM ---------- Oh, I've heard of that game!

Saighdear Posted February 4, 2013 Report Share Posted February 4, 2013 Subscribed to the Youtube channel to keep a eye on it, never heard of this game before but I like the concept. What was the film called Warzone? I'm trying to find it but having no luck, did it have a sub-title? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

edonil Posted February 4, 2013 Report Share Posted February 4, 2013 Go Steampunk! lol, honestly, that's the reason I discovered Malifaux...so glad for Steampunk at the end of the day. Also what got me to start writing again, although I'm far and away from Steampunk now rather than where I started... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteamHammer Posted February 4, 2013 Report Share Posted February 4, 2013 And archery is cancelled again. Not much of a surprise. Oh well, if the power stays on it's more time for painting a Dreadball team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
