The Forgotten Marshall is the final model needed to complete my Forgotten collection. In game I like to give him The Whisper, to either summon a model or tee up for nice attack. His summon is a bonus action, so worst case he uses it to consume the worst card The Whisper lets me see.
Even though Wyrd has announced a special fishy edition of the Rogue Necromancy, I’m still happy with my classic version.
It’s actually a somewhat difficult model, as you need to figure out what everything is, and make them different without being too loud about it. As usual, I use metals for the stitching. Even though it’s not very realistic, I like how it exaggerates the stitches without drawing too much attention to itself.
I’ll probably still get the fishy version to play with my pirate Molly. Maybe this one will get more play with McMourning.
Just about every crew in Malifaux needs a cheap scheme runner. Molly gets creepy undead children in the form of Crooligans.
The models themselves are fairly straightforward, continuing the reds and greens that make up most of my Resurrectionists, although with a bonus splash of blue for color.
Also like many of my Resurrectionists, the Crooligans get both a black and red splatter. This helps keep them from looking too clean. After all, it’s tough being dead.
The Night Terrors are annoying models. I don’t mean in game, I mean in real life. It was hard to line them up on their posts. They don’t fit in regular infantry spots in foam. On the plus side, they’re super fast in game.
I also screwed up assembling the models. They have front torso, back torso, and separate pieces for each wing. What I failed to realize what that the wings are keyed to go inside the torso. I didn’t realize until after I had glued some of the torsos together.
Trying to fix it, I snapped one of the arms for the dark purple Night Terror in half. Rather than fix it, I decided he would only have one pair of wings, and green stuffed the hole in.
