A hopeful prospect

 So I did a demo game of Malifaux. Will this city get its third Malifaux player? Only time will tell...

I wanted to use only official models, so for myself I had a team of:

Philip & the Nanny
2x Crooligan
Shikome

Demo group was:

Sebastian
Flesh Construct
2x Guild Autopsy

We had a simple scenario of "gain 1 point for each killed model" and one chosen scheme from a group of four, played revealed. Choices were: Assassinate, Breakthrough, Leave a Message, Dig Their Graves.

(Too late I realized how terrible Dig Their Graves was for this matchup - 100% of team Experimental was able to remove corpse markers!)

I picked Breakthrough while opponent took Leave a Message. 

Fortunately the game itself presented exciting situations and cinematic moments, like Guild Autopsy red jokering Philip & Nanny on the first round, and Flesh Construct triggering Swallow You Whole on a Crooligan just as it had reached one health.

It was around fourth turn when round began with Philip & the Nanny and last remaining Crooligan at one health remaining while Experimentals had Sebastian and both Guild Autopsies around. Points were 3-1 for Experimental.
