I was a bit absent from Malifaux reviews, but there was always something that needed to be reviewed first. Now, when the schedule is a bit loosened, I can return to one of my favorite miniature games – Malifaux. It’s time for Arcanists – and the Marcus is the first one listed in Malifaux rulebook. [...]

Importance of terrain in skirmish games

Jun 26, 2011 No Comments by

What usually makes skirmish games different from other miniature tabletop games is your ability to interact with the environment. By the environment I mean terrain pieces on your gaming board. Those that have some experience with skirmish games know that terrain is a big part of game itself. Different levels and places to hide are [...]

Colette Du Bois seems to be a simple lady of the night, however, she is nothing of a sort. She started as a pickpocket and became a master of the illusion. With different tricks she gets whatever she wants. After coming to Malifaux, she learnt all about Soulstones and their magical powers and managed to [...]

This is third and last article about one of my Malifaux Crews, with which I managed to take the first place on Malifaux tournament held in my local club. There were two articles before this one about Victorias and Convict Gunslinger. They are the “essence” of my Crew, but they can’t work without help. Rules [...]

Seamus, the Mad Hatter

May 09, 2011 No Comments

Alice in Wonderland has the Mad Hatter. Although Johnny Depp played the role perfectly, I just couldn’t believe that Mad Hatter in Alice didn’t look like a Seamus from Malifaux. IMO, sculptor of the Seamus mini had in mind the greatest Mad Hatter ever. In Malifaux, Seamus is a lunatic who possess the art of [...]

Nicodem, the undertaker

May 02, 2011 No Comments

I love the fluff of Resurrectionists. Being bunch of crazies, each of Res masters possesses unique character.  Nicodem is no exception to this fact. As he is only undertaker in town, people got used to him. His appearance is of a typical undertaker, aside from his left, cyborg leg. He is eloquent and well spoken, [...]

Mc Mourning

When the first people entered through the portal and visited Malifaux, city didn’t appear to be any different than some other Wild West town. Settlers soon discovered that it possess far more things that they’ve never seen before. One of them was necromancy. Dr Douglas Mc Mourning is a Guild coroner, but behind the curtain [...]

Sonnia Criid

Last of the three Guild masters, Sonnia is a typical Witch Hunter. I read one of the short stories about her, I think in one of the Malifaux chronicles, and immediately loved the character. I don’t want to spoil the story for you, but she smacked one Arcanist pretty good. Sonnia also got a starter, [...]
