Questions questions….

What is my kryptonite? Is that what makes me absolutely weak and unable to resist in a good way or a bad way? I think that being sick is the worst thing in the world where I would say I’m adverse to the whole thing. My inability to resist in a more pleasant way either is unmentionable or would have something to do with new shiny figures (just like the streams they do not cross… or something like that).

I’d say that the Guild from Malifaux is my least favorite. The despotic nature of the group reminds me of what was found under authoritarian governments. The agents of the group lash out with pistol, proclamation, fire and swords (what you Aussies might call knives) with zealous determination to impress order on the world. Having agents at all levels of society, from base paperboys to the heights of bureaucracy with the Governer, the faction seems to desire nothing more than to burden Malifaux with the heaviest of yokes. The fluff in the gamebooks really doesn’t get into the politics/relation with the “real world” back home but I am interested to see how the story is addressed with ‘Through the Breach’ and the follow on game set on Earth.

The weaponization of muffins has already been done. I cannot make it any better. It was originally accomplished by the late great Gourmand von Doom. It wasn’t long after he got his hands on the legendary infernal cookbook, the Nom-a-Nom-icon, and formalized the Voretility Index whereby ingredients were indexed according to their unstable properties. This was a boon to the lagging sales in the high calorie commercial confection market after so many years of a health conscientious public which had swore off the stuff. Notable not only for their questionable shelf life Twinkies were a best seller to the military after being used as the initial test desserts of destruction. Other forms of highly combustible cookies soon followed but soon led to the formalizing of strict manufacturing regulations to divide between foodstuff and explosives in industrial baking facilities.

@sundancer Don’t worry about those nice young men in their clean white coats. We’ve got music for that.

Seeing Boba Fett getting that treatment is great. That’s an awesome as a display. Keeping it from being scuffed definitely looks a lot nicer with the flock added. The original presents were just cut bits of square plastic rod. The bows will give you the issue with the .5mm plastic sheet when you cut to shape. Thinking about it, if you know anybody that does brass photo etching and have an appropriately mask printed up you can get scores of them to a single sheet and only need to glue them on like the details of 1/35 armor kits.
