Hey nerds, welcome to Doug test-driving another format! Since we've received two new keyword rewrites at the time of publishing this (Big Hat and Oni), it's safe to say Wyrd is comfortable with fairly large changes to established crews. As a thought experiment, Doug took this opportunity to do a bit of a rewrite of his favorite keyword, the M&SU. Note: This is NOT us saying that this keyword is in desperate need of a rewrite, nor are we demanding Wyrd make changes to these models. This is all just for fun and for Doug to flex his creativity muscles. Enjoy! Having trouble building a tricky model? Check out the Artefactors Union, our YouTube Buying models?

Full disclosure: The audio that was meant to come out this time around ended up getting corrupted, so Doug did a quick one to make sure we got something out. In this episode, Doug flies solo and covers three different things that don't quite deserve their own episode. First up, he covers the Explorers Society reveals and tries to connect the dots as to what we could possibly see for these new keywords. After that, he does an update on what Steam Powered Scoundrels are working on, and why you should be excited. Lastly, he goes into moderate detail on what exactly the Scoundrels do to record and publish a podcast. It's a pretty simple setup, so if you were ever thinking about running your own Malifaux show, you should definitely give it a try! Donate to our Patreon! JOIN OUR DISCORD

Welcome back. With the announced upcoming errata, this episode sees Doug, Roman, and Dave propose Nerfs for 6 model/upgrades/abilities from each faction, based mostly on polls placed in the faction Facebook groups. We set the rules for ourselves that each change couldn't be a point increase (too easy) and should retain the model's 'feel' as much as possible. I do apologize for Doug's cold. Blame his children. Oh! We have a Patreon now! JOIN OUR DISCORD
In this episode Doug, Roman, Nate, and Eli all discuss their games at the IndyStorm Malifaux Tournament as well as go over their impressions of the format (combined Bans and Too Many Secrets). JOIN OUR DISCORD - https://discord.gg/3eZh5MH
Hey folks. Short episode here. Thought I'd dedicate myself to YET ANOTHER series by doing a primer on assembling models. Decent listen for anyone into miniatures but especially good for new people to the hobby. Check out our Discord here: Steam Powered Scoundrels Discord
How do you like the new and improved publication schedule? In this episode Doug, Victoria, Roman, Nate, and Eli present our ideas for unmade Dual Faction Masters and Keywords (thank you Craig for the suggestion!). I do apologize as I screwed up recording and you can only hear Roman, Nate, and Eli through the speakers on my laptop! You can still understand everyone, though. I promise I'll be smarter next time.Check out our Discord here: Steam Powered Scoundrels Discord

Hey! Going to do our little service to the community and try and actually talk about the actual gameplay part of the game! This episode is going over the general themes, both story-wise and gameplay-wise, of each keword and model in the faction. We hope to provide a little help to those looking for a place to start when they decide to play the game. Check out our Discord here: Steam Powered Scoundrels Discord Before listening, check out Schemes & Stones 'Welcome to Malifaux' episode: Welcome to Malifaux
Your hosts for this episode are Doug, Victoria, Brien, and Roman. In this episode we cover everyone's Malifaux Experience at MuseCon 2019 (being beaten to the punch by that dastardly Kyle Stones). We also discuss a few things we currently find powerful in M3E, as well as rules questions that came up during the con and how Kyle and Doug ruled them. THEN we get to go over the brand new shiny teal 8th faction for Malifaux, and our wonderful ideas for inclusions in the roster (basically Doug monologues for 20 minutes). I'm the TO, I demand you have fun listening to this.
Your hosts for this episode are Doug, Brien, and Roman (Victoria was feeling sick!).Today we go over why Doug sucks at maintaining the podcast, the official end of the beta, a talk on the state of A Wyrd Place, the new boxart, the new faction reveal, and the revealed fluff books. And remember kids, find us on Facebook or comment here for anything you want us to talk about or even more reasons why Brien is the worst.
If there's anything that'll get us to crawl out of our caves, it's getting to lord knowledge over people! Welcome to the twelfth episode of Steam Powered Scoundrels. We dusted off the old podcasting machine and got it running again because M3E has got us hyped for Malifaux again. Doug, Brien, and Roman (and Victoria sort of) chit chat about our Beta experience and some of the fluffy things already revealed to the general public.I apologize before hand that my daughter was playing quite loudly with her Legos, and so for the first half of the recording you will pick up on the distinct noise of hands raking through a tub of loose Legos. If you can't stand it, feel free to skip. She does eventually go to bed and things quiet down. As always find us on Facebook or comment here for anything you want us to talk about or reasons why Brien is just...the worst.
Welcome to a collaboration episode between Steam Powered Scoundrels and Schemes and Stones. In this podcast we're going to go over our thoughts and opinions on the announcement of Malifaux 3rd Edition. We'll hit on every section of what was revealed by Wyrd including the new hiring rules, conditions and tokens, changes to the system, revealed cards and models, changes to each faction, and expected distribution methods. The website can be found hereAlong with the esteemed Kyle Bode you have a Scoundrels crew of Doug, Victoria, Roman, and Dave.
We're back after a long hiatus! Miss Us?For this episode, you get to listen to Doug and Victoria ramble on about the current state of the fluff since the publication of the Through The Breach 2.0 book and Broken Promises along with two new guests, Roman and Nate.You're in for a special treat, because Doug is high on post-operation pain medication and has a terrible voice from the breathing tube! What fun!
Warning! I forgot to silence my Discord channels, so that stupid notification bloop is going to be popping up occassion. Today we cover Through the Breach, Wyrds delightful RPG that's a companion to Malifaux miniatures. I have with me Victoria (sort of), Sean Overton from A Wyrd Place Podcast and Adam from Cheated Fates. We hope we can convince a few of you to check out the great and fun game.

Hey folks! Welcome to the first episode of our new show, Friday Night Faux-Down! Unlike the regular SPS episodes, FNFD will consist of topics that are shorter and more relevant, as well as a shorter length and more frequent release schedule. This way we can be more topical and digestable that the regular show. Don't worry, Steam Powered Scoundrels aren't going anywhere. Topics- 1. Should Wyrd go digital and free with their cards? 2. Wargamevault's card printing fiasco 3. New board game(s) from Wyrd 4. Measuring Widgets and other Accessories 5. What's wrong with the Guilders program? Please send us ideas for topics or if you'd like to be on the show. We can be found at SPSMalifaux@gmail.com or @SPSMalifaux on Twitter. We also possess a Facebook page where we can be reached.
