Starting a Hell Fire Club
« on: 22 February 2014, 02:49:47 PM »
I gotta stop... I've yet to play but am in the midst of making another force. This time it's the Hell Fire Club. I've made this order from Reaper Miniatures...
 03312: Townsfolk: Cultists and Victim $15.99 x1
 60136: Aglanda, Herald of Razmir $7.49 x1
 60070: Velmarius Elazarin $6.49 x3
 03470: Khalatine, Evil Cultist $7.99 x1
 50012: Jack the Ripper $6.49 x1
 59032: Old Pete $6.79 x2
 59029: Baron Simone LaCroix $5.99 x1
 03336: Children of the Zodiac: Cancer $6.99 x1
 03341: Alura, Succubus Temptress $6.99 x1
 02254: Alura, Succubus $5.49 x1
 02254: Alura, Succubus $5.49 x1
 03360: Children of the Zodiac: Libra $6.99 x1

My Plan is to clip the wings of the Succubie and they will be the slaves, Old Pete wil be the clubs enforcer while Jack the Ripper will be a member of the club but also a liability, he's drawing to much attention to the club (need rule to convey this, any ideas?) The Baron will be the clubs leader...Lots of nekkid ( o )( o )'s

Don't worry - it happens.  Sometimes people just say "huh. cool"  and move on.  I think it will be a fascinating crew if painted correctly.

I'd be interested to see pictures of the figures you are buying...

Given the figures, I take it that their primary attack will be via mystic powers?  None of those figures appear armed (many of then aren't even clothed !).

A lot of the weapons will be implied and a few converted on...maybe small "chits" to represent the guns?

Great idea, Stepman.

How do you propose drawing in <ahem> new flesh?

Fabulous figures. I might co-opt a few.

Excellent choice of figures  :o.

The Hellfire Club was designed to be a difficult list to play as it really does rely on the right choice of mystical powers for the mission. Make the right choice and you can devastate your enemy. They key though is to remember the scenario objective.

@stepman3: Glad to! I was still at work, so it was easy to whip together.
