Unboxing Malifaux - Alternate Rogue Necromancy

"Three heads are better than one..."

The Alternate Rogue Necromancy box contains enough parts for one miniature...the Alternate Rogue Necromancy. It also contains a stat card for it though there are no upgrade cards.

Alternate Rogue Necromancy

The Rogue Necromancy is a big nasty patchwork abomination full of poison and dangerousness. It is the most often found Resurrectionist Crew and has a lot of offensive potential. The Rogue can also be found working for Marcus as a beast or Leveticus as a undead. 

Alternate Rogue Necromancy - Sprue

The box has one sprue in it split into two pieces (so it actually fits in the box one presumes) as well as the aforementioned cards.

Stat cards in the official format can now be downloaded from Wargame Vault for a nominal fee from HERE.

Some General Notes on Assembly

Many of these models contain quite small parts so depending on how dexterous you are you might consider getting yourself some tweezers. Dry-fitting is also always a good idea in case a part needs a tiny bit of extra filing or filling as some of the fits are quite tight. Where the parts on the sprue are quite thin (chains, weapon shafts, cables and the like) then it might be better to remove parts with a sharp scalpel rather than cutters.

Additionally...my own assembly notes are written as I go along so I'd suggest reading them all the way through before starting the assembly process.

Alternate Rogue Necromancy - Assembled

The wings need to be added after the arms and the tail before the wings for the easiest assembly though there's enough room to add them after if you mess up. Each head is in two halves and it's easier to assemble each and then join them together before then adding the assembly to the model. You need to dry fit all the parts as the fit is very close in many areas and are easy to mis-align.

Thoughts and comments are (as usual) most welcome.

I purchase my miniatures from Leodis Games (Link Below) and can highly recommend them.

Should you ever choose to purchase something based on one of my features or reviews then it would be nice if you could let the company know where the inspiration came from...who knows...they might be grateful to the poor unappreciated blogger who sent you their way...if however I've put you off a product...well...you can keep that info to yourself...
