Malifaux Players and their Factions.

Today Underdweller expressed an interest in starting Malifaux, so I thought it might be useful to make a list of which factions and which masters were already in the area.

For me:

Guild - Lady Justice
Arcanists - Rasputina
Arcanists - Collette DuBois
Outcasts - Viktorias
Outcasts - Hamelin

Anyone else care to post up their info?

Arcanists - Miners and Steamfitters Union (Ramos)
Arcanists - Showgirls (Colette DuBois)

I also quite like the look of the Ten Thunders crew, but shall try and resist...

Thanks, that should be helpful! I'll read through the books and post the factions I'm intersted in sometime this week - I suppose having the same as someone else is OK (I see 2 showgirls already) but I would prefer to get something different.

It's worth pointing out that while there are definitely factions-within-factions according to fluff and aesthetic, as far as the rules are concerned it's completely legit to have Ramos, a giant mechanical spider, a razorspine rattler, 2 showgirls and a railroad worker all in the same crew. That said, most models have better synergy with their own sub-faction.


Ps, I just found this yesterday. Looks like BattleCollege for Malifaux.

Probably a more navigable link, at least it is on the iPhone.

Outcasts - Viktorias
Arcanists - Mei Feng (not put together yet)

*Edit*

I just want to say that Malifaux does not use dice, has a great steampunk/wild west mix, is a really good tactical game, and does not cost much to get started.

This site http://www.miniaturemarket.com/ had very good deals I thought:

Box Set for about 27 US dollars.

Guild - The Ortegas (the only painted, playable crew), Lady Justice's lot
Neverborn - Lilith and Friends
Ten Thunders - Not yet but I am dead keen on 'em

There is a definite lack of Ressurectionists in the Chubu area so I will be getting Morgue Master Douglas McMourning and crew.
