Malifaux

A skirmish miniature game set in a horror-steampunk city where rival crews clash over control and objectives. Players assemble forces of 5–7 figures from a faction, combining minions with at least one leader-type model and deploying them on a board with terrain and objectives. Conflict resolution uses a card-based mechanic: players draw cards from a faction deck to resolve checks and may play cards from hand to modify results instead of rolling dice. Turns are integrated, with players alternating activations of individual models as they move, take actions, and contest objectives.
