>What is Malifaux? Malifaux is a 32mm Skirmish Tabletop game, with a focus on completing several different objectives, while denying your opponent their objectives.
Performers, but only bacuse I play Colette and technically blah blah.
Probably Trappers, because I fukken love me some area denial and minion deletion.
Hudson Long
Are the crossroads 7 worth getting? Do you think they'll make another box in a similar style for the new book?
I play outcasts and I have all the crews except daw and shill (and Parker). I'm going to be so happy once I get a trapper
Anthony Mitchell
I'm really tempted to pick up Lazarus though, because he's a pretty cool model. With Colette, Doves can all but guarantee mega blasts off shit. With Mei, he's a beefy construct that will benefit from Vent Steam.
But my other Master is Lucius, so I'd only be able to run the two as Neverborn, with Laz as list padding.
Jackson Sullivan
>Are the crossroads 7 worth getting? Game-wise I'd say no, unless you have specific plans or really want to try them out.
Model-wise - not so much either. I got a box recently from the summer campaign, and Wrath and Envy are pretty cool, but the rest aren't so much something to write about. They've done a fairly decent job theming them aesthetically to their home Factions though, for the most part.
I might use Lust and/or Greed as spare Performers if I want to run loads of them.
Michael Flores
Lucius can't hire lazarus in neverborn, he's still a guild master.
Charles Sanchez
Best Merc hands down
Joseph Rogers
Oh, good point. Bum.
Well, he doesn't show up fucking everywhere for no reason, that's true.
Isn't his yell quite expensive though?
>Posting bestMerc.
Josiah Moore
I really want to run a Levi list with Johan, joss and Howard. Does that make me a bad person?
Nathan Robinson
Looking at the Starter Pack, Angel Eyes seemed like a cool unit, is there anyway to pick her up outside of the starter box?
Hunter Taylor
Yes. I only ever use lust be she is useful to the point where it is wortwhile. If you play Daw then they are a must buy.
Andrew Murphy
>Isn't his yell quite expensive though? 4+ of Rams
Levi Russell
A few of us at my LGS are thinking of getting some Malifaux starter sets to play as a distraction from Warmahordes. I assume buying a starter box and just playing small games is the best way to begin, right? We all picked different factions, I chose Neverborn with the Titania box but only just found out it isn't out yet ;~;
Zachary Long
Gadzooks Games
Isaac Sanchez
Well that'd be a no then, I withdraw my challenge.
Why with Levi? Why Johan with that crew specifically?
Prime excuse to repost pic related.
Levi Myers
I'm an outcast player and joss and Howard are m&su, plus all 3 are 6+ stones for waifs
Jacob Davis
Yes. They are generally at about 35SS each, at about 50 needed for full sized games. While a few boxes like Kirai's are not recommended, the vast majority should be fine.
Ryder Clark
Can McMourning Focus his Expunge?
Isaiah Rogers
>joss and Howard are m&su >(2) Open Revolt >Friendly M&SU in 6" heal 1/2/3
I see the synergy now. Handy to pull Joss off H2K too.
Also a scary brick to trudge up the middle as well as a cruise missile.
Jaxson Russell
What are your auto pick models when someone declares a faction against you?
I play as outcasts
Ressers : Taylor. Fuck summons Arcanists : Ronin. Fuck armor Neverborn : Sue. Kills huggy d and no terror checks Guild/gremlins: Lots of Friekcorp models or nix with Hollow. Don't want blast damage. Gremlins : trapper. No more slop hauler
Not enough ten thunders or outcasts in my meta to have any plans against them
Easton Evans
yes
James Murphy
bampin'
Julian Foster
So if I can get a Miss Terious, is it worth the $30?
Jason Sanchez
It's up to you. Do you actually like the model? If not then just get regular Death Marshalls. I was fortunate enough to net mine at a tournament for $0.00.
Owen Robinson
Can someone explain to me how exactly the wastrel trick with Yan Lo is supposed to work?
Gabriel Gutierrez
If you want to play Jack Daw, absolutely.
If you play Arcanists or TT, maybe. Envy and Lust are nice when you're not paying a merc tax.
Otherwise... eh. Greed's probably the third best, she's fast and her aura is really punishing against models that can't stone. Sloth, Wrath, and Gluttony are nothing special. Pride is just kinda bad.
Aiden Morris
Wastrel Swaggers up the board to get Devensive stance - allowing him to cheat his Df, but maximising the chance you'll pull a low Weak that Yan Lo can easily cheat above to get positives to damage. Yan Lo charges and cheats to get the Severes on Spirit Barrage twice to get 2 Chi first turn, and leave a corpse for Toshiro to summon off.
You get 2 Chi, one corpse and Yan Lo futher up the board for 4ss.
Landon Anderson
You're paying that much for a reasonably nice model. Hell, wyrd is likely to have it available for Easter shortly.
Many better things you could get for that price, but if you like it, sure.
Isaac Gomez
Look up Henchman hardcore (google that shit). Start with a game of that, should be about an hourish, and requires less investment.
Henchman and 3 models keeps it purchase manageable, can play it with many crew boxes.
Asher Miller
Henchamn Harcore is great for getting in two or three fast and mentally easy games a night, rather than one big mental effort. Tracking the interactions and Rube-Goldbergs of four models for three games is orders of magnitude easier on my brain than tracking six to ten models' abilities and optimal positionings.
It's part of the reason I'm thinking about using hyper-elite crews for the next couple of games - I'm still mentally fresh on turn four and five. Not only do I play better more consistently, but I'm not just playing turn five to finish the game.
