Wyrd Games Meet More Of Malifaux’s Explorer’s Society
May 21, 2020 by brennon
Wyrd Games has been previewing more of the characters from The Explorer's Society! This new cast of characters are going to be coming to Malifaux in the near future and we start with a bit of a showman.
Winston Finnigan is rolled out when they need someone with a smooth and charming nature to keep things in check. You can tell by the look of him that he's oiler than a snake oil salesman and shiftier than a chameleon. Finnigan is also blessed by good luck and that translates over into his rules as you'll see here.
Not only is he fast and agile but he's able to duck and dodge his way out of many situations as he seeks to do his employers bidding. There does seem like a lot of text to read there but the abilities and such will all become second nature to you and you'll be wheeling and dealing in no time.
Rocky Ground
Sometimes, your words just won't be enough. This is where you turn to the Surveyors who are drawing on their earthy powers in order to deal some serious damage. They also happen to look particularly sharp on those suits too!
This is another interesting side to this faction and shows off that they have a fair bit of muscle behind them as well as all the silver-tongued sneakiness. I could imagine this group being a lot of fun to paint as you work up those earthy tones and tinker with the way you're going to blend the different textures on their skin together.
Again, all of the abilities and powers have been themed nicely to the unit. You've got a lot to look forward to when it comes to this faction and it should provide a nice point of difference to a lot of the more well-established factions in the collection.
Are you tempted by these new boys on the block?

I’m sure he used to drink in my local. Nice fella.
The surveyors look interesting.
I’m getting a bit of a Handsome Jack/Kirin Jindosh vibe from that first guy. I’m not sure if that’s a good or a bad thing.
