There's a vague possibility that there are lots of DBx-based historical miniatures/Malifaux crossover gamers out there, but for those of you who aren't in that (probably small) demographic I've posted a match report from my first ever game of Malifaux on my website. Malifaux is a Steampunk Gothic Horror skirmish game with card-driven mechanics and some rather nice models. It appears to be a lot of fun, which is a great relief after having bough the rules and the figures and then spent plenty of time painting and basing them up. For my (and my opponents) first game we set up an over-ambitious Mei Feng vs Sonnia Criid 50 SS matchup that we managed to get through in about 5 hours, which is not too bad given neither of us had ever played before – some of the combos were rather complex.
A brand new "Steampunk Hannibal" makes an appearance as well as the usual poor jokes and irrelevant video interludes. There's also a clunking great robot who's almost a train and who hits people with an enormous metal bar as well. What's not to like?! Match report here |
