Kickwatcher: Not your usual suspect

Okay, so I know we have a really strict rule about "no Kickstarters that don't have soldierdolls in them" here at LXG.  I know because I made the rule, so there.  And now I'm gonna break it, because sometimes doing the right thing means breaking the rules- or at least that's what I tell my Parole Officer.  So, get ready for Professional Prints Price Provocatively, by our own Ali Alcatraz.

Journey into the Wyrd

 From the title some of you might have guessed that LXG has delved into the crazy world that is Malifaux.  Ali, TokenGamerChic, Merek, 2CE, and I have all started crews, and some of us have even started the painting process… Even me, some of you will realize that’s an achievement.  But that’s for another time, this article is about my experiences and thoughts on our first few games.
