Some spectacular new stuff coming out. From their newsletter:
(Image tags added by yours truly)
With Gencon right around the corner and a slew of new releases, we thought it high time that we share our efforts.

August will see an expansion rulebook for Malifaux along with additional box sets and clamshells for masters, henchmen and minions. A new deck of cards called our Puppet Deck, which can be used as an alternative Fate Deck and is made out of plastic, making it much more durable to wear and tear during play. Lastly, we partnered with WorldWorksGames to create fully customizable and tangible terrain for your skirmish gaming which we call Terraclips. Our first three offers of this new line will be the 3D Streets, Sewers and Buildings of Malifaux!

These will see an early release at Gencon with a public release over the next couple of months through distribution and retailers. Information is below.


August Releases

WYR6013 - Malifaux Expansion Rulebook: Rising Powers - $35 (256 full color pages, soft cover)
Image

The battles waged to control the Soulstone trade have created class divisions for mankind in Malifaux. While the Guild struggles to maintain peace and control the flow of Soulstones beneath an iron fist, Arcanists, mages basking in the glory of their newfound power, have bonded together to oppose those that would deny them the glory of their natural abilities. Resurrectionists practicing the necromantic art of rebirth and reanimation have shed the vestiges of their humanity with each accursed syllable of their unholy pacts. And the inhabitants of this new world, the Neverborn, stand against them all, determined to drive them back through the Great Breach that spans the aether between worlds.

Here, in Malifaux, the battle lines are drawn and new allies and adversaries have risen to meet the escalation in power. More than the exploitation of coveted Soulstone is at stake. The balance of Life and Death stands against the twisting of Fate’s forces.

As the world of Malifaux expands, so do the opportunities for conflict. A growing encounter system gives players nearly limitless options to fight over. Also, you are no longer limited by the Master you choose to lead your Crew. Henchmen have appeared to take on additional roles unavailable before, and releasing the previously unknown power of the Special Forces.

With the stories in this Malifaux expansion, new characters are presented for every faction – Guild, Resurrectionists, Arcanists, Neverborn, and Outcasts, including a look at the Gremin Kin, one group of Special Forces.

This year at GENCON Wyrd will be at booth 2213 with all of our latest offerings. As always, we like to do something fun and this year we have two Special Edition miniatures.

The first is Miss Pack, an alternative sculpt to one of McMournings demented Nurses and this years Special Edition miniature. Spend a $100 or more in the Wyrd booth and you'll get her free! A preview of her art card is below, with a painted miniature following here shortly.

Image

The second is a miniature that will be only available during convention season, both at Gencon and online for the four days of the convention. This is the Nightmare Version of the Dreamer and companion, Lord Chompy Bits. Standing 72mm tall at the eyes, this is one BIG piece of metal which is completely usable for play in Malifaux and comes with stat cards for the Dreamer and Lord Chompy Bits, a new master for the Neverborn.

Due to the size of this piece, in order to keep costs reasonable, this will be only available for direct sale to customer, and only during convention season in limited quantities. This limited box set will retail for $60. A normal version of slightly less nightmarish size will be made available in the near future. Pictures of the painted product to follow shortly - in the mean time, artwork for the piece.

Image

Also, releasing at Gencon and on pre-sale now at Battlefoam, the new Malifaux Battlefoam bag will be available.

More details and product previews to follow leading up to Gencon!

1) Oh, Yes. I must have Lord Chomby Bits!

2) Must have that fate deck. It's going to be AWESOME. I Love Malifaux's puppets/voodoo dolls.

3) Sorry for the images. They're too huge for the forums (hosted directly at Wyrd).

Just got done figuring out what I need to order in the store for $40 to offset the most awesome Mr. Chompy Bits and bring my total up to $100. I'm not even going to GenCon, and just the name of it is sinking me into poverty! :evil:

Peanut Butter and Jelly Sandwiches, Mac and Cheese, Hot dogs, and $1 frozen pizzas here I come...

Hope Privateer Press doesn't have a total blitz on products as well...or I might have to cut out the frozen pizzas.

The LaCroix to parody the Ortegas...absolutely classic.

Not a parody, an imitation. The backstory is that the LeCroix family is tired of people messing with the bayoux and so inspired by the Ortega clan decided to take up arms.

I understand the backstory, and whatever the full fluff may be in-game, outside Malifaux, ...it is a parody.

I am curious what they are doing with the Guild in this book. No previews Guild-related at all. Not that I'm complaining, maybe I can finish up all of my Guild stuff before anymore comes out. Doubt it, that new Hollow Waif Model is already swaying me to finish off Levi.

I love that fate deck. It's a MUST HAVE for me.

Oddly, the colors on the Seamus voodoo doll are the colors I'm using on the one I'm painting.

I must have the Japanese ghost story team. Also, I already have McMourning and want to get that nurse. Is it going to be available if you order from the online shop during GenCon like last year with the Gremlinette? I hate models where I have to go somewhere to get them as I live in Japan. A $1000+ plane ticket, hotel room, and convention admission is out of the question. Blah.

Looks like it. Guess you need to find someone who is going and work out a deal.

Actually, I just dredged the Wyrd forums and it *seems* that if you order during GenCon through the online store you can take advantage of all the GenCon offers. But only during the four days of GenCon. That's fine by me. It's what I did last year.

That's correct.
They'll be available online, but ONLY during GenCon.
Dammit.

INdeed.

It'd be even nicer if you could find someone who gets early access to the exhibitor's hall and is planning to hit up Wyrd anyway. 8)

Eric,
I hate you! :evil:
Where as I still have no desire to get into Malifaux, seeing this post has made me irreversibly obsessing to play Mordheim again ... using all of this terrain from Wyrd.
Hopefully the Warstore will carry it at least at it's usual 20% off.

BAD ERIC!!! No Lord Chompy Bits for you!

If any of you are interested and can't go to GenCon, Wyrd has just posted the new releases on their site. This INCLUDES Lord Chompy Bits. He's $60 and ONLY available for the next 4 days. Also, if you order over $100 during the next 4 days Wyrd will toss in the limited "Miss Pack" nurse model from what it says on their forums. I just put in my order.

Remember folks, this ends Sunday night so get your orders in!
