oh dear god. Just bought the Bauhaus starter set as well. I'm still waiting for the minis from 2nd edition to arrive as well (40 more Bauhaus and 40 more Imperial!). I'm rationalising it that I'll have to have 2 forces to bring others into the game.
Ok. Definitely not buying anything else..
Definitely want to come back to Battletech ar some point, though happy to try out some new Warzone in the meantime.

HERESY!!! You have frigging bankrupted me, getting me into Malifaux (because I have to have the complete set of everything, ever). Now it's time to return the favour! Hey! You can't blame me for your OCD and Completionist nature! That's on you buddy!

As no counters/templates exist, I've made my own, for I am awesome and dynamic. Still waiting for the Imperial and Bauhaus starter sets to arrive, dammit!

Got a couple of the extra figures yesterday, they are really cool, rules with them look in depth, hoping this isn't the case lol Still waiting for cybernetics starter pack and a few other extra models as well.

You realise that this game could be crap.... All of my 2nd edition figures have arrived. Spent half of last night putting them together, and only 1/4 of the way through (there's a LOT of models!).

I now have a better grasp of how the games plays. It looks like 20-30 minis are in all likelihood the most one would use for a standard game, so shouldn't break the bank too much if anyone is on the fence about giving it a go.
On another note, as I am the exception to the rule and have bought over 100 minis already, I shall be proxying and converting my little face off, and now intend to use by newly acquired Bauhaus Hussars as Venusian Rangers.
It also means that I have plenty extra models if anyone wants to have a few tester games before jumping in (I'm looking at you, Will!).
Tony and I are playing our first game on the 16th of Feb if anyone wants to peer over.

I am quite keen to see how it plays out. The models are great so a trial run will be in order before committing. 16th is the beginning of the Dragon Age RPG (which I am very keen to get in on) so if I have time I'll sneak a peak.

Just say your character is on a cigarette break or something and come on over I might be able to blag a Pipe break, not so much cigarette break. Ferelden isn't known for it's smokables. Unless of course people are the smokables and only when a dragon is near. Damn those high dragons! *shakes fist*

Imperial Trenchers have arrived. I now have two bad ass armies ready to go! TONY - make the first game 500 points on 16th Feb?

Actually, just re read the amount of stuff you've bought. Can make it 750 if you like...

Post by Anything Green or Mean! on Feb 5, 2015 18:40:54 GMT
Okay 750 points, will put a unit together and read the rules!!!

I suspect mine will be troop-heavy as that's what I have an excess of. Going to have to upgrade to rocket launchers to take care of all your horrible big monsters. P.s. - don't forget we'll be using the standard layout so it has to be balanced!

Okay 750 points, will put a unit together and read the rules!!! We probably won't have time for more than 1 game, but bring all of your stuff and we may be able to sneak in another session. Be good to see your models either way. Maybe set up an army list for everything you have and let me know the points rounded to the nearest 50 points and I can see if I can match it? I want to check out the competition....,

Okay army list is -
Immortal 285 Everassur 180 Dr Diana 175 Dr Diana Clone 110 Dr Diana Clone 110 5 Chasseurs 111 5 Chasseurs 111 Exterminateur 135 5 Mirrormen 135 Scorpion 95
Total Points - 1447 Pretty large force, have the other models on order so should be able to field over 2000pts lol

Don't forget, you can only have 1 warlord and 2 lords in a standard force, so if you want to include the Immortal. your Commander Dr Diana ( Warlord 175) would have to be downgraded to Dr Diana Clone (Lord 110) and the two current Dr Diana Clone (Lord 110) would be squad upgrades to your 2 Chasseur squads as Dr Diana Neoclone (Squad Commander upgrade 30).
What other models have you ordered?

Post by Anything Green or Mean! on Feb 15, 2015 20:56:06 GMT
Damn was going to try and sneak in three Warlords. Probably go with either the Imortal or Everssaur as my Warlord, will decide tomorrow. Ordered the following - Eradicator 165 3 Enhanced Machinatiors 150 Cuirasseur mk3 99 5 Armoured Chausseurs 125
Can enhance some as well to increase the points if them. Just need theVoltigeur which isn't out yet. Probably get another Scorpion and a couple more Terminateurs to round the crew off to a nice mixture. Still not sure of rules but I'm sure we will sort them out tomorrow, maybe worth starting with 5 infantry each as a quick run through?

Well, depending on points, you can have the Immortal as the warlord (as he can't be anything else), and the Everssaur and Dr Diana Clone as lords.
Christ, you don't do things by halves! Having said that, I've got about 1200 each of Bauhaus and Imperial. Certain Brotherhood units can be taken as support for either, which might be a good way to open up to a 3rd army eventually.
Yeah 5 infantry aside to get the basics in hand should be good - only take 10 mins or so for a quick run through.
When I get paid I'll be adding another Greyhound tankette and some Golden Lions. Looks like they'll be bringing out army books for each faction at a later date - Looking foward to adding some Wolfbanes to my Imperials!

The more I look at the Brotherhood and Mimisha models the more I want to buy some. Once I've shifted my High Elves which (fingers cross) should be fairly soon I may look into buying either faction to give this a crack. Any chance of a demo at some point?

Of course mon frere. I bought 2 factions so I could hook other people in. The forces of Bauhaus are yours when you want them. Have a look on my availability and let me know when you're up for it.
Or, if you want to give Tony a game, let me know and I'll bring Bauhaus along for you to use.
I'm using Imperial tonight but have some Bauhaus special forces with me as well if you want a peek.
