[@Pippaqueenofdumb]

I think plenty of us would love to see a bettle report of Malifaux. I'm fascinated but I'm nervous about seeking out a new channel for it. Jay, if you were thinking about doing so it might be worth giving it a shot!

[@glenbaker4364]

I have found Household Gamer provides great Malifaux battle reports.

[@Gingerbread22]

T&G Productions has a section on Malifaux that is nice and not a chore to listen through and also does some lore/strategy stuff for each Master, very helpful for newer players.

[@TheBigfrankenberry]

What makes you nervous? The search bar?

[@thingmate7361]

Malifaux has an incredibly welcoming community, so wherever you start you'll have a ball!

[@budoku729]

Nervous about a new channel? It's literally virtual it won't hurt you

[@nathanedwards4940]

Malifaux deserves more love, it’s amazing. I genuinely think it has the best rule set for a miniatures game. And it’s coming back in my community! I remember getting into it back in 2016 and the game was totally dead, nobody played. Now there’s a group that plays every weekend at my local CO store! Stock is still a bit hard to find but the models are worth it

[@aruss1]

Also of note is that all the rules for Malifaux are free. There is a free app that includes all the rules for core game, the various scenarios and all the cards for the crews. It also updates as the errata comes out and there is a built-in army builder.

[@BlackJackLegacy]

Your passion for Malifaux is infectious my man! I couldn’t agree more with you about the art, the lore, the feel and the style of Malifaux and that’s before I even mention the minis and the gameplay. I’m also going deep with Malifaux right now (Explorers Society for me!) so look forward to following your progress and if you ever want to talk Malifaux with another KZbin nerd I’d be honoured 👍🏼

[@marcolai9735]

I’d love a collaboration between the two of you!

[@jonathondaniels2127]

The paint job on those Showgirls is excellent Jay. The level of detail you've managed on their faces is outstanding.

[@joakimandersson7769]

Lol

[@Spartyo]

There's something unique about how you talk to the camera, cant put my finger on it. Feels like a natural conversation - whatever it is, your videos are really dope. I just discovered this channel recently and I can play your vids back to back. Never feels stale, or like I am going through a youtube channel with an overly rigid video format. Awesome channel, glad I found it.

[@DefectiveDice]

Always excited to hear you talking about Malifaux! I have way too much stuff for Faux, and a good majority of it is on bases that I made using tutorials from this channel. Can wait to see more from you!

[@GothGoblinNecoArc]

Thank you for making this video, I’d love to see this game enter more of the mainstream

[@nalissa77]

I love Malifaux. Their models are beautiful. BTW: It's only a "pile of shame" after 1 year of having them and it will always be a pile of awesomeness. :)

[@PavelThorsonos]

It's only a Pile of Shame if you're ashamed by it and letting it weigh you down - and I refuse to do so, no matter how long I've had it! Pile of opportunity is my favourite label

[@aruss1]

I love Malifaux. One of my favorite games from back when the very first book of 1st ed was all that was available to now with 3rd edition. Glad you're making more videos about it. I just got done painting the holiday sale alternate Guild Steward last week.

[@seanhomrig7798]

Your enthusiasm really shows and it's contagious. I also dove into the Ten Thunders and the lore and have all of the Honeypot gang. They're not quite assembled and all painted, and they don't look as well as yours, but that doesn't mean it wasn't fun and relaxing to put together. The biggest issue is finding people to play with; it's very popular in England, but when you live in Central Texas...eh.

[@mortthepirate6318]

One of us, one of us, one of us, one of us! Love to see another channel picking up my favorite wargame, and I think the best objective based game ever made

[@Filmmonster]

Both Moonstone and Silver Bayonet did the same thing to me. Really love the characters and lore in Moonstone and the setting of Silver bayonet.

[@anthonywaggett9317]

I started to collect Malifaux stuff with the first edition but the all metal minis were a nightmare to build and way beyond my skillset at the time so I gave up on it, although I always loved the style. A few years back I picked up TTConmbat's Carnevale after getting a free mini on the cover of a magazine and the quality (and to some extent style)gave me Malifaux vibes. My first box was the Romani Caravan from the Strigoi Faction and I was so proud of the paint job I did on these (lots of bangles, crystal balls and tarot) - unfortunately they got lost in a house move along with the Funeral Gondola. I currently have the 2 starter sets waiting to be painted or built and painted and 2 boxes of Strigoi. The cheaper of the 2 starter sets comes with everything you need to start playing - 2 factions, Paper mat, card buildings dice rules and more and you can pick up a copy for around £30 in the UK. Double this to around £60 and you gat double the figures (all different from the other starter set) -more buildings, acrylic markers and tokens, the full size rule book with beautiful art and lore and 9 double sided game tiles to allow different city layouts. Game play wise there is also the element of parkour built into it so you can leap between buildings and drop onto an enemy from above. New figures are arriving all the time and last year saw the first expansion which now includes seafaring and ships. Still have no-one to play with though!

[@massqueraider]

Mali is easily my new favourite miniature game! So good! Glad there's some more coverage out there

[@captainweekend5276]

I picked up the blood bowl season 2 core set today, and also got the amazon team, and plan on getting a couple of their star players and big guys. There's something so endearing about the style of the game and how it doesn't take itself seriously. I feel like it's the sort of thing I can just pull out with friends and go through a quick game with minimal setup since you just have the pitch and your dugouts rather than needing to set up a whole board with terrain.

[@dougbrecher5677]

Great to see you dive deeper into the game Jay! All of us @ Danger Planet really enjoyed watching all your videos so far. Excited to have another content creator shine a light on this game system!!! We hope you enjoy your time jumping into the breach!!!

[@madosx9903]

Cool. I think you should make a painting tutorial with this specific scale. It would be cool

[@MeatbagKillaXD]

This please!

[@matthewminsky9466]

Great video as always, brother! I love your passion every time you talk about your hobbies in general, but it was punched up a notch for this. I get it. I'm the same way for Infinity from Corvus Belli. Been following it since 2005, when I came home from Iraq, and have never had anyone else to game it with. I keep trying to get friends and family to try, but they're either not interested or too stuck into their current games (usually GW). I've collected something like 7-8 armies for it, hoping to entice someone's interest. And now, I've found a love for Malifaux's green-skinned Bayou dwellers. And, like you, when I go into something I go all-in. Mah Tucket, Brewmaster and Captain Zipp core boxes each with one or two add-ons. Lots to paint, but also a ton of gaming options. Looking forward to seeing what my local meta is like!

[@Tehstampede]

I played Malifaux when it first came out back in the early 2010's and had a lot of fun with it, but stopped playing because it was too hard to find a game. I got back into it 2 years ago and the quality difference in the models absolutely blew me away. Everything is high-quality plastic and extremely detailed (almost TOO detailed) and the game is a blast to play. I built a Perdita Ortega crew and have been having a lot of fun with it.

[@tylerreeves8690]

I love your excitement and joy talking about my favorite game! Don't forget that the M3E Crew Builder app is an EXCELLENT way to check out all the cards and how to build a game...for free! I'm looking forward to hearing more about your journey into the game. I absolutely love your Nekima, she looks soooooo good! CO-lette DuBOIS 😆

[@joshuamiller504]

This year I got really into the Judge Dredd Miniatures Game. I have a local shop that still has all the OOP minis.

[@Tyrannosaurus_Mechs]

Miniature Market has some Malifaux in their latest clearance sale, including a couple of core boxes. This one has been on my radar forever; maybe it's time to check it out.

[@ChirpOTK]

Malifaux is by far my favorite game to PLAY. The rules are so tight and the 52-card deck mechanics everything is built around is incredible.

[@samanthagrimes8832]

I really dig Corvus Belli's Infinity. The cyber aesthetic is slick, and I wish I had a more active community to play with.

[@rutgaurxi7314]

Based.

[@Gingerbread22]

Malifaux is sooo good! So many characters are so cool and feel so fun to play. I love Colette! I got 4th in a tournament playing only Colette. She plays so much different than the average war game model. I mainly play Outcasts and Arcanists, but planning to eventually have at least one master in each faction. Misaki Katanaka is my choice for Ten Thunders being a super ninja!

[@isaacsmith5588]

I love Malifaux! It is my favorite miniatures game. I helped start a small group a few years ago, but I've changed states and there aren't many people who play where I'm at in WA. I love the lore, and I could probably host my own tournament with all my models 😆

[@thomasmonks5715]

I loved the old codex's, love Malifaux also, might have to dip a toe back in after I've finished painting my marines and necrons. Had Candy's crew from the neverborn when I was a youngster, neverborn are the best

[@KieranDunleavy]

Like others have already said, Malifaux is the best game that not enough people know about. I love, Love, LOVE that you are enthusiastic about it! You’re already doing great hobby work, so I hope that attention to the craft Carrie’s into more Malifaux content from you.

[@richarddunn7017]

I don't even paint but your videos have me thinking about starting a new hobby. Great work!

[@BlackCadian]

This is awesome, thanks for covering Malifaux!

[@magnusmillerwilson]

Dammit Jay…you’re making me want to check this game out. I already have shelves of gray plastic and my wife’s stink eye for it… I’m an RPG deep lore guy, but my current and favorite gaming crew is about board games and skirmish games. This sounds like a perfect combo. 😢

[@Gingerbread22]

And there is an RPG in the setting too called Through the Breach.

[@darbizzlebacon]

There is also a TTRPG in the world of Malifaux called “Through the Breach”. It uses some similar mechanics, in that it uses playing cards instead of dice.

[@virolance]

i been playing with random people on TTS since i watched this vid. ill teach you. ILL TEACH ANYONE

[@odharrison23]

Thanks for sharing Malifaux. Seems like a cool game. The minis look cool. I like that the game uses a deck of cards. Really sets it apart! Can’t wait to see what you do with these models!! Thanks gents!! Fantastic as always!!

[@JohnWigger]

for patterns on the clothing, nail stencils are great and you can either stipple or even airbrush with them...

[@tristanlee8495]

While not actually an existing miniature wargame, I desperately do and do not want a Halo mini game. Because I would buy literally everything for it, like I would go homeless for it.

[@YourStylesGeneric321]

Me from my cardboard box home made from 40k sets: Lol

[@luketfer]

It did exist. I believe there was Halo actionclix Miniatures back when Wizkids did that line.

[@feno12]

@@luketfer You are correct, had a bunch of them at one point

[@jayhare2647]

There is a 3d printable community wargame

[@alexandercrumulent271]

Well, the Spartan Games guys went homeless for just the spaceship part...

[@gribblegreeble]

definitely got into Malifaux because of Jay's earlier videos about the minis and game...and don't sleep on those paint jobs - he killed it on them.

[@pa_gaming_dad2810]

Bushido is that game for me. Love the miniatures and the factions in the latest releases.

[@brianv769]

I enjoyed the few games of second edition Malifaux I was able to play, I love the setting, the mechanics and especially the miniatures. Just too hard to get a game in so I never went with third edition, but miss the game. Love to see your excitement for this game!!

[@radomircita9420]

I love Dystopian Wars. That is my passion. Got into it because of Zeppelins and now I own more than 20000 points in its miniatures both old and new

[@matthewdoucette1]

great time to buy in, I just started (again) recently as well and it's at its most accessible now - it's a challenging game but very rewarding when you get to grips with it

[@paulh9293]

I recently went hard into battle reports for asoiaf miniatures game, when my brother bought a box for himself out of the blue. I still need to pick anything up for it, but I'm hyped. It looks sooo much more approachable than 40k and so good with a nice App and free online rules!

[@darbizzlebacon]

Yay! I am currently recording myself building the whole Mercenary keyword. It’s only 12 models, not including the Viks Twin Blades title or Kenshiro, but “building an entire keyword for Malifaux” sounds impressive

[@metalblizzard6024]

Need more malifaux content

[@Fuzzycat16]

I was recently looking at malifaux. This videos helps a lot.

[@jackthemayor2518]

All the games' rules are available through crew builder. The lore is available through the breachside broadcast which is the free audiobook podcast.

[@SuperKingslaw]

Another game to check out is "Moonstone". With figures inspired by the likes of Terry Gilliam and Jim Henson, and quick, skirmish gameplay with a heavy bluffing component, it is really worth your time.

[@AcornPlays]

Thinking I might get into Malifaux next year, there's no one near me that will play but the models look stunning

[@Mad4saxBrewery]

How about some Live streams of you painting all these Malifaux models? 😉

[@christophergibson110]

I have no interest in playing Maifaux, but that Grave Golem looks spectacular. Jay's enthusiasm for this is contagious and wonderful to see.

[@brandonchaplin9782]

Sooo yeah I might've gone an ordered the rule book thanks to you (yes I know they have it for free on the website but I like me some books) would love to see more stuff on this, even how you go about playing it

[@JoelGarcia-hi5mc]

That's the same I'm doig with Warcry: collecting several warbands to play with my family... And recently I found the game Carnevale from TTCombat. Loved the miniatures and the history.

[@montgomeryharr30]

Malifaux 2e was an amazing game. I sold my collection but excited to see how 3e pans out

[@vera3311]

Yes!!!! Been waiting for this video! I also have a Colette crew! Making a Guild crew atm. So exciting!

[@Delonto]

Glad to see Malifaux getting some love. A nice thing to note is that Malifaux has an amazing free companion app with access to all the cards, links to most all the rules, and the ability to set up games in the app.

[@CassyCat4]

My system that I love is Moonstone, Every miniature has so much character and the sculpts are gorgeous, With its unique card system it has no solo play but Im still going to hoard them and have enough miniatures for each faction so I can one day force someone to play it with me.

[@lukpokyun8929]

Nice Video for a great game :) I really love Malifaux and play it regularly. The Game definitely needs to be covered more because it is so fun and especially interesting to play. Thank you for that!

[@TheSpooky86668]

Most strategic miniature game I ever played ... It's awesome !!! That being said, a Core Box isn't enough to play a full game ... Full games are 50 soulstones while a core box has around 35SS ... Best way to go about starting Malifaux is choosing a Keyword and buying everything from it and then start looking at Versatile models ... Also, a crew is built after seeing which Strategy and Schemes you are playing and building the crew accordingly ... Anyway, glad you discovered it, have fun !!! 😉 BTW, in world of Malifaux, Reva is closest you can get to a "good guy" ...

[@TheDruidicMonkPlays]

I love Malifaux. I think the minis are great, and the rule books are fantastic. And I look forward to new books because each book progresses the story. And the minis are beautiful but not overloaded with tons of pouches, and bits and bobs all over them. Simple and clean yet fairly detailed.

[@hephesto555666]

Excellent, a game that deserved much, much more exposure. Really different feel of game, very cool community with a much broader audience and, in my opinion, a much better gaming system than what 'the elephant in the room' produces.

[@Androg1983]

I have started the Bayou and I can definitely confirm the models are very fun to paint and even more fun to play

[@Martdogg3000]

I wish I could be as enthusiastic about anything as Jay is about Malifaux in this video.

[@gregsmw]

i would love to see a video on how you did those neverborn bases i have been really on the fence about malifuax for a while now, i REALLY like a number of the models and teams part of why i havent got into it yet is im utterly torn between a few of the teams/masters urami is great, savage are all cool, fae are great (though i would want the alternate titania model, base titania is eh) cadmus are wonderfully creepy, frontier have a fantastic cowboys in the dust feel to them, the witch hunters are cool as hell, december and wilfdire are great, and last blossom and qi and gong are also fantastic i genuinly cant really decide which ones i want, i THINK im mostly leaning towards savage and last blossom, but the one i most want basically switches every time i look at them its weird, i dont get this with warhammer, with 40k and AoS i KNOW what armies i like the rest just arent as cool to me, but with malifaux i have real decision paralysis about getting into it, cos SO many of them look amazing also side note your actually SUPPOSED to swap out your crew every game in malifaux, its part of the rules that you dont decide what "units" your taking until after you know what master your opponent is running, so if they are taking a resurectionist troup for isntance, its part of the rules you are SUPPOSED to tailer your list to deal with that specific strategy (take corpse removal) if they are taking wildfire, tech in some burn immune guys to deal with it (they can also do the same to you) your supposed to change your team every game

[@Picosaurus]

I saw some Malifaux at the Wyrd both at GenCon. Knew nothing about the game but loved how it looked so picked up the Rasputina core set. Would love to see a Let’s Play or something.

[@honestlynate7922]

About a month ago I decided I was going to start looking into you guys painting these because it came up into my feed granted it was mostly the Warhammer stuff then all of a sudden a week ago Henry Cavill is like oh Warhammer 40,000 and I hope it Sparks new interest and that I can find some friends to play with. I'm in Western Massachusetts

[@aaronbrown4275]

I have zero clue where you're located, but if you're ever in the Toledo, OH area, the FLGS I frequent has a really big Malifaux scene. Like, a typical Malifaux night is a dozen-ish people playing and they do events.

[@beardhammerwargaming]

You are the reason why I want to paint Malifaux models😅

[@ghostlightplays]

I have quite a bit of Malifaux. I noticed it at the tail end of 1E and picked it up fully during 2E. I was just getting going when, due to not being able to find a job and my wife's declining health, we had to move. The city we were in had a thriving Malifaux community and the city I'm in now doesn't seem to have one. The model shops here sold off their malifaux on the cheap shortly after we moved here. It's a pity, the models are gorgeous (the Viktoria's models are some of my favourite, and tons of the Ten Thunders models are incredible, like the Mei Feng box, the Kunoichi and Archers) and the game is fun and unique!

[@ProrokLebioda]

Nice purchase! I'm still painting my Nekima Core box, after that I'll get some boxes for her keyword. My cobblestone bases aren't nearly as cool as your Nekima crew ones! Haven't yet played any games (there is no play group in my town), but mechanics and cards seem like something I might enjoy. Modeling side it's already a great game. Small amount of different minis is what I like! If they only fixed stock issues in Poland... Hard to get some boxes.

[@joelsmith7078]

I was definitely hoping to see more of the actual Malifaux side of things and less about generic repetitive excitement. What do the models look like? What gameplay options are there? etc.

[@ONIMOT100]

Infinity by Corvus Belli. Absolutely obsessed with the models, the lore, the setting, everything. Even if the game itself is a bit too competitive for me, and I got absolutely noone to play with in my area.

[@maxsmith6323]

same here

[@Miniatureworld2063]

I've been dipping in and out of Malifaux since the beginning of 2nd edition. Its absolutly amazing! I've just recently picked up the "Other Side" 2 player starter because its both MAlifaux and the other side. For my my favoured factions are Neverborn & Ten Thunders.

[@pabloalbertocarrillotoledo8697]

Just got into Malifaux this black friday sale to get a few nightmare edition teams, the game is almost non existent in Mexico but i will try to start a little scene for the 3rd edition soon. Thanks for giving spotlight to the game

[@JamesTillmanjimthegray]

i suspect im getting several 3rd ed malafaux things for xmas so loved this video

[@pauls3585]

I am just getting into Moonstone. Awesome models and cool fun rules. I have bought enough for 2 Troops (warbands) 😁

[@Paydonrg]

I’ve been super into Nemesis, it’s pretty much Alien the board game. you would probably like it!

[@Ducknuck84]

I would say Oathmark is my small scale game i fell in love with, I like that you can make your own army and kingdom and mix it up so you can have an army of elf and orc or humans and undead, plue it being mini agnostic means you can make your army using any mini you want

[@Capin91]

Looks like the perfect mini for ya; a golem who is animated terrain!? Hope we get to see some of these painted on the channel

[@countjinto991]

the game I fell in love with but haven't been able to play yet is Idols of Torment from the Black Magic Craft youtube channel. the kickstarter finished and now we are waiting on the rules/stls to come out. its also a small skirmish game.

[@nilvenet1346]

I'm not sure I've ever seen Jay's eyes with that many sparkles in it, and that felt good!

[@aerynmusick4548]

Those showgirls models are really fun to paint! I haven’t played yet but the minis are so cool.

[@the_coalheart]

Space station Zero, the amount of stories you can tell with that one... DUDE, blows my mind. Zona Alfa is a close second and the aesthetics are *chef's kiss

[@evagalemourningtide7682]

I'm getting myself a 3rd crew for Christmas, it's a great game and the model are so nice.

[@grognozzle4916]

Relicblade is that game for me, you should check it out. all done by one guy: lore, sculpting, illustration, packaging, mechanics. Its a game that feels a lot like a D&D battle.

[@charlesgao2179]

Malifaux is great, at the same time it is a lonnnnnnng and complex game. Every keyword/warband is very unique, and they all play very differently and are loaded with tons of special rules. It's definitely one of those games that's fun to dive in with a friend to learn together but if you're playing with randos you might get spun around in circles.

[@mikeschmidt2333]

Moonstone is that game for me. Beautiful minis and a fun casual game. Only downside is that they have no American distribution yet so you will have to order from overseas for any new releases for the game, but there are a few eBay sellers that have the goods without overseas shipping

[@mayofrench5170]

I am also a collector/painter. I once played (early 8th ed) a 40K campaign with my Blood Angels. My main goal was to not reuse any models from game to game. Had a great time. Didn't win much.

[@louisgrandmont121]

Woah!! Those characters look very nice! I now know how I will spend all this xmas money my grandma will give me!! Never enough plastic....

[@LC-wv7tz]

There's quite a lot of worldbuilding that has been done for the game. There are youtube channels totally dedicated tot he lore and the world. It's been around for 14 years, there are loads of stories and fiction, podcasts released constantly by Wyrd, and there is another game system that takes place Earth Side of The Breach as well as a pen and paper RPG system with loads of books that detail the settings and background. Many things from the RPG end up in the wargame. It's similar to how Warmachine and the Iron Kingdoms functioned with loads and loads of books and stories. An evolving plot centered around a cast of characters, and an RPG with loads of books and beastiaries that detail the world and background that the "camera lens" of the main narrative does no focus on. You also didn't mention the app, which is, in my opinion, the best app any wargaming company has made for a game. There is a large and dedicated fanbase for this game that has been around for a while and there is loads of content already on youtube to teach new players about the game and how to start as well as one youtuber that focuses almost exclusively on the lore. The game is very complicated, though, and the learning curve is extremely steep. Malifaux is designed as a competitive tournament style game, so the models, strategies, and combos are rather complicated and are meant to played competitively. It can be hard to learn everything that a single model can do without playing it multiple times, let alone everything an entire crew can do.

[@aartadventure]

I wish we had gotten to see Jay paint his showgirls. They are stunning!

[@charlesentrekin140]

One of the crews I play is perdida, the Latigo Posse. What sold me on them was there's a character who has one arm still in a straight jacket a bundle of dynamite and a pistol pointed at his head. It also has a little old lady in a steam powered wheelchair with a double barrel shotgun. I also have a crew that looks like the extras for a Shaw Brothers Kung Fu Epic from back in the seventies. Complete with several flavors of monks including drunken ones. One that's led by a zombie newspaper reporter, and another led by a guy who likes to experiment on dead bodies to make them better weapons and finally my first love in this setting a beautiful young woman who loves to have people for dinner usually roasted.

[@pabloalbertocarrillotoledo8697]

If you enjoy weird and unique skirmish games i recommend Carnevale y TTC Combat, battles over Venice cannals, with fighting comedy of theater characters, Assasin´s Creed style infiltrators, vampires and Innsmouth like abominations... o and also the Vatican itself, i consider it a Malifaux-alter universe since they also have a red color coded Guild that calls the shots.

[@ulfhazelcreek8108]

My game I dont get to play is… Gaslands. Thank you for the enthusiasm. It’s contagious.

[@harveyg3958]

actually choosing two teams with options IS the way to better Malifaux play and options. Great words of wisdom to newbies

[@spacenue2468]

The dragon is also a versatile unit so he doesn’t necessarily go with them but is used to fill in what you want

[@shilohyoung2247]

Love your vids, always watch them as soon as they pop up

[@SoASeraphim]

The game i fell in love with is the "A Song of Ice and Fire"- miniatures game from cmon For me its the combination of the rich world GRRM has created and a flurry of more interesting systems (return of the regimentbases from warhammer fantasy + a more interactive activationsystem than warhammer 40k + the off the board tacticszones ...) went all in with the second wave of factions and stuck with the Free Folk... Though to admit my pile of shame is ridiculously large due to the horde nature of that faction and my inability to properly paint

[@sethtruesdale1848]

I loved this game... unfortunately my local game store stopped selling them at some point during the pandemic

[@glenbaker4364]

I love Malifaux! I have at least one crew for each of the eight factions, with some overlap as there are crews that are duel-faction; the only faction for which I only have one crew is Explorers Society. I have 20 different Masters, some of which are alternative models to the ones available in Core Boxes. My pile of shame is huge. And I have no one with whom to play regularly so my drive to reduce my pile of shame is low. One of the reasons I love this game is the rule cards include all the information you need to play that character. This game is set up to allow proxies without issue. If you find a model you love from anywhere, all you need is to put it on the correct sized base as specified on a character rule card and you can use that beloved model as a proxy for that character.

[@ViktorAstril]

That's awesome. I love Malifaux The Guild is my favorite, Perdita, Lady Justice, and Hoffman are my crews

[@tervho859]

It really has a Fable vibe, reminds me so much of that awesome game!
