Malifaux: Rasputina
May. 3rd, 2010 03:26 pmI played in a Malifaux tournament a few weeks ago, and tried to get some figures painted in time for it. It's a fun little game, using a deck of cards instead of dice: you flip cards for challenges, can "cheat" using cards from your hand, and generally get screwed over by jokers appearing at exactly the wrong moment.
The tournament games were a bit of a baptism by fire. Quite literally, in the case of the first round: I drew the eventual winner of the tournament, with a witch-hunting Guild army that proved to be both immune to my spells, and capable of incinerating everything on the table. I learned a lot about how to play the game, and ended up losing most rounds by a single control point.
That left me in second-last place, but I managed to pick up the painting award :) These are the models I used at the tournament, from one of the Arcanist starter boxes. At $30-40 for enough models to play a game, it's a hell of a lot more affordable than some of the games I've played...
