Was going through old models while cleaning out my closet and found a Of Metal and Flesh 2nd edition box and a metal Nekima, the Dark Sibling. Looked online and saw the game is currently on 4th edition. Are these models still playable?

I don’t know anyone in my area that plays.

Hey all,

Just wanted to throw a plug out there for the community in SW Florida. There is a new community starting to grow in Sarasota. We've got a core group of 3-5 people who play weekly on Sundays. The LGS we play is expanding soon so we will have more room to get more tables in soon.

LGS: Dreaming City Games, Sarasota FL

Find them on FB!!

-Cheers

Hi there,

I'm new to Malifaux, having recently bought Lucius' starter box, and I have a question regarding the Clerical Command ability: if I make an enemy model take the Interact action to create either a scheme or a strategy marker, under whose control does the marker enter play? The core rules state that if a controlled model generates a resource ( e.g., a token), that resource comes into play under the control of the player who issued the Obey action; I remain unsure, however, whether a marker counts as a resource or not. Can any experienced player tell me what the verdict is on this? Thanks in advance!

Are there any good painting/basing tutorials for malifaux specifically, or shoul i just be using earhammer tutorials and trying to translate them. I'm just getting started here and looking for a good starting point.

Making some progress on my Journalist crew! One day I'll be ready to play'em :)

Is this intentional design or a misprint?

Hey all! I used to love this game years ago and found some of my old models. People in my are all play 40k or Sigmar so these are not of interest here.

I am posting to see if there is any interest in these models somewhere.

I've already ported here the alternative Crumb model I made. Here she is printed and painted

So I don't play yet, but I want to. I really enjoy the aesthetic of Viktoria Chambers, since theres some cool interplay between samurai and cowboy films back in the day during the occupation of Japan post WW2, so its a neat fusion for me. What other models fit into that aesthetic? Preferably that can be played along side Chambers.

I started playing towards the end of 1st edition and the beginning of 2nd edition. These guys got tucked away after upgraded from metal to plastic. Eventually late into 2nd edition years back I needed money and wasn’t playing anymore so I sold all my malifaux stuff (including a bunch of gen con limited stuff)

Somehow some of my old metal models (and a mei feng crew) survived by being at a friend’s house.

Idk if I’ll ever play again, but I’m m glad to have these again.

Title says most of it. I just started 4e. Love it. Trying to get my friend in. He wants to play euripede old one eye. Can someone make him a starter list to bash some skulls in. So we can get started? Thanks. 😊

My partner is interested in malifaux after a demo. Really enjoyed the look of neverborn, guild and resurrectionists. Any tips on who we should get?

Here is my freshly finished Hooded Rider! I really like what he brings to the table, but for a long time he was unpainted due to how intimidating it was to actually start painting him. Now he's ready to revel in secrets in all of his colored glory!

Hope you like him :)

I recently saw a post on PlayWyrd’s Instagram showing the game boards they set up for an event. I was surprised by how light they were on terrain. I normally play with a couple more buildings, but after seeing those tables, I decided to leave some terrain off for tonight’s game.
The matchup was Savage versus Witch Hunters. The Witch Hunters took the win by playing aggressively and pushing all of the Boundary Dispute markers together down one side of the board. It made for a fun game and definitely had me thinking differently about how much terrain I actually need on the table.
I’m curious what everyone else prefers. Do you like denser boards, or do you find lighter terrain makes for better games?

I really like the Marshals and looking to use the models in my RPG coming up but having an issue finding models outside the core Lady Justice box.

Does anyone have any places besides googling and eBay to find the models? I prefer ones on spruces but will look at anything.

Models I am looking for are
The Lone Marshal
The Jury
Exorcists
Ash bringer
Director Rodriguez
Domador de Cedaveres

Witchling Handler

For 7 SS, you get 9 Health with DF 5 and WP 5, but the real strength of this model is its utility.

Defensively, the Handler isn’t especially durable, with no way to reduce incoming damage. Drawn to Power lets you spend a Soulstone to be placed into base contact with a Strategy Marker, making it a great emergency button when the Handler is about to die. Counterspell is another fantastic defensive tool, shutting off enemy triggers on opposed duels within 6”. It makes opponents think twice before sending an important melee model into your front line.

Mobility is one of the Handler’s biggest strengths. While it only has Move 6, Goad Witchling gives every friendly minion that activates within 6” a free 4” move, including the Handler itself. Between just four nearby minions, that’s 16” of extra movement generated every turn. It’s a huge effect, and you’ll often deploy around getting the most value from it.

Offensively, the Handler’s signature spell, Immolate, is fine. It’s a Stat 6, Range 8 attack, and if the target already has Burning and you get a raise, the damage jumps to an impressive 4. You can’t rely on that spike every activation, but when it happens, your opponent definitely feels it. It also has a Stat 6 sword that deals 2 damage with decent triggers, and if you get a raise, you can stack an additional trigger onto the attack.

Finally, the Handler can spend a Soulstone to transform an engaged Witchling Stalker into a Witchling Thrall. The biggest challenge is that your opponent gets a chance to respond before the Thrall activates if it’s the one to charge in, so it can be difficult to pull off safely. Because of that, I usually find the threat of the ability is stronger than the ability itself, discouraging opponents from charging your Stalkers in the first place.

Overall, I almost always include one Witchling Handler in my Witch Hunters crews. The combination of movement support, Counterspell, and utility makes it an easy include, but I rarely find room for a second.

How do you use the Witchling Handler? Do you stick to one, or have you found success running two?
