I’m a total sucker for limited editions. And Malifaux’s skirmish nature means there’s less of a “I’ll never use it” argument holding me back.
The Through the Breach Hannah has been tempting me for quite a while. The regular model is pretty ungainly, which is both an aesthetic problem and a practical transportation one. But it’s pretty scarce, and the ebay price was more than I wanted to pay.
Finally, my patience paid off, and I snagged one on sprue for a small premium over the regular Hannah price. Everyone’s favorite power armored librarian was mine.
I knew I couldn’t leave the pages blank. It’s simplistic, but it still adds a bit of character. I briefly tried doing some kind of magic glow at her finger, but it looked stupid so I washed it off.
I had a chance to play Hannah at the Henchman Hardcore at Adepticon. My list was:
- Hannah with Ancient Tomes
- Nothing Beast with Void Shield
- Void Wretch
- Void Wretch
The idea was to bury a key model with Ancient Tomes to steal an activation. If lucky, bury another with the Nothing Beast, nibble with the Void Wretches, and unbury outside of the Turf War area. Hannah could also Make a New Entry off of the Nothing Beast’s attack. It worked out pretty well, and I was able to steal activations from the opposing Henchman several times. It was also pointed out to me during lunch that I could just sit a model on top of the Void Marker to send the buried model back to the deployment zone, and possibly out of the fight, which I used to good effect in the final round.
