AdrianMills Posted June 29, 2011 Report Share Posted June 29, 2011 A thought has just come to mind and I don't have my rules with me at work. Can you Hex off a weapon to effectively make a Minion useless. Take the bane of my crew Nino First Hex off Shrug off Can you then Hex off His ranged weapon?

aka_hazard Posted June 29, 2011 Report Share Posted June 29, 2011 the wording says 'loses 1 Talent or Spell of your choice' so I'd say no Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sholto Posted June 29, 2011 Report Share Posted June 29, 2011 Rules Manual says:- Models in Malifaux can possess one or more Talents. Talents are divided into four categories: Abilities, Actions, Triggers, and Weapons Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rathnard Posted June 29, 2011 Report Share Posted June 29, 2011 My reading of the rules has always been that you can hex off a weapon talent (eg. paired from a convict gunslinger, to take a simple example), but you can't remove their ability to actually use that weapon. Where it gets foggy is removing weapon talents that are integral to explaining how the weapon works, like with suppressed memories on Jack Daw. In that case, I assume the weapon can no longer be used since the rules for using it are now ignored. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AdrianMills Posted June 29, 2011 Author Report Share Posted June 29, 2011 But if weapons are classed as talents then i can't see the reason why they can't be hexed (fluff wise you would hex out there knowledge of using them). Ok it would be a bit mean to do it but in Theory it can be done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AdrianMills Posted June 29, 2011 Author Report Share Posted June 29, 2011 Cheers Sketch. I knew there was something niggling me about it when it came to me. But I sure would love to see the look on there face when you say I am going to cast to hex and you forget how to use your rifle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Csonti Posted June 29, 2011 Report Share Posted June 29, 2011 In other words, you can Hex anything that is listed on the back of a character card. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bucket_boy101 Posted July 3, 2011 Report Share Posted July 3, 2011 If you could hex off a weapon, the Hoff would be able to assimilate a weapon, and get to win a lot more! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boardgameguy Posted July 14, 2011 Report Share Posted July 14, 2011 Thanks for the clarification, I was wondering this question myself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
