Red_Starrise Posted March 1, 2012 Report Share Posted March 1, 2012 So I'm among ranks of new converts. I have chosen the Guild mainly due to how great the Death Marshall models are. So I've got the following: Rulebook Lady J box Exorcist Executioner Sonnia Samael Nino Thoughts on good 35ss crews & strategy ideas? Whet about further models?

Jewomie Posted March 1, 2012 Report Share Posted March 1, 2012 Well, first of all, welcome! If you're picking up Sonnia, i would grab witchling stalkers (unless you meant you picked up her box as well) The constructs all have various wonderful uses, Lucius and the guild guards are lovely to work with, and i think every guild player around here has an austringer... i love mine. You do have a pretty solid list there however, so building a good 35 ss game shouldn't be too hard for you. You'll figure out what else you want/need as you go. Lady Justice is where i started as well. Good luck! and again, welcome to Malifaux Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Manlapas Posted March 1, 2012 Report Share Posted March 1, 2012 The advice I most wish someone had given me when I started is this: Don't worry about building lists. Don't even worry about the rules much, as they will be most easily learned by playing. Sit down and read the Strategies & Schemes. Build a few tables and put the objectives down for each Strategy and think about how you would go about achieving each one. I didn't bother to do this until after I'd lost 7 or 8 games. Yeah, I lost the 7 or 8 games that followed me studying the strategies, but then I knew WHY I lost them. Once your at least 'conversational' with the strategies, you'll know which models to buy next, because you'll feel their lack when you play certain strategies.

Spiku Posted March 1, 2012 Report Share Posted March 1, 2012 As Manlapas states, you learn that you don't take lists/builds, but pick for strategies/schemes. That said, pick up a pair of Austringers =3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caleb Posted March 2, 2012 Report Share Posted March 2, 2012 Witchling stalkers are great, better than the Death Marshalls in my opinion. You should definitely grab a 3-pack I allways have 2-3 in my crew when i play with the Guild. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for the info-- I'll try to study up on that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cerealkiller195 Posted March 6, 2012 Report Share Posted March 6, 2012 Agreed take time to look over your cards and the rule book schemes and strategies. Do not be swayed by the text on another player's cards. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
