Synergy Conflaguration or Thematic

[Mike]

Having dipped my mind in to the mad world of Malifaux how do I immerse myself?

Do I take the synergy route where the crew moves together to achieve any and all schemes / strategies.
The Conflagration of the world. Build on the burning.
Or
Build based on the story behind Mei with her connections to Ramos and/or the Ten Thunders.

Until I play more games the synergy route is an unknown. There are many guides to help you but it depends on how my mind plays the game. The competitor.

The Conflaguration is a bit easier, I just need to see all of the arcanist and ten thunders stat cards picking out those that cause or utilise burning. The revolutionary.

The easiest is the thematic. Get Ramos and the Rail golem adding a bit of working class henchmen. The unionist.

The competitor
Expand buying Joss, ice golem, December acolyte, Howard Langston, willie and Fire gamin

The revolutionary
Expand by buying Firestarter, mechanised pork chops, sparks, Rail golem and Fire gamin.

The unionist
Expand by buying Ramos, rail golem, Joss and anything which is worker / peasant.

[Tom]

Whichever plan doesn't involve Joss. He's a right bastard. Same for Howard.

[Dave]

Just get 'em all! Mwwwhahahaha

[Mike]

Just get 'em all! Mwwwhahahaha

Straight from the starter box set scenarios.
Malifaux madness, thank god it is not highly contagious.

[Mike]

Going for the burning scrap.

Fire garmin and pig ordered.

The crews name should be the Chinese belly pork crew.
