Re-using Malifaux figures for Pulp Alley

I'm planning to re-use some of my many Malifaux figures for Pulp Alley so I thought I'd post a few photos with my plans for using them. The first 4 photos are of the von Schill Freikorps set.

Ferdinand von Schill will be the leader of my first league with Elsa the Librarian as his sidekick. Rounding out this group is Ziggy the Specialist with his flamethrower. All the figures wear armour and gas masks so I'm planning on taking that into account with Danger Sense, Untouchable & Lucky Devil for von Schill. He will be used aggressively providing the main punch with Elsa, his sometime lover, being the brains. She'll use her extensive knowledge to grant an extra Fortune card each turn and her knowledge of medicine to give her Indomitable. Ziggy will look to hold off foes with blasts of flame.

Rounding out the group will be Hans the Hunter with his sniper rifle and two as yet unnamed Freikorpsmen.

These friendly fellows are 'Silurids'. I'm thinking about using them as creatures from the black lagoon type monsters. Maybe with a Witch Queen of New Orleans as the boss. Not sure how to fill out the league yet.

The first two here are 'Stitched together' the other three 'Witchling Stalkers'. I'm thinking about using these as part of some sort of Cthulu type cult. Again it would need rounding out.

This is Collodi and his four puppets. These should make a really creepy crew with Collodi as the boss with his puppet minions. I have a few creepy little stuffed doll type figures that could go with these, but as with the others my thinking is still in the early stages.

Once I finalise my thoughts I'll post up the leagues and their abilities.

The Curse of 'Ohh! Shiny' and the ADD Wargamer

Having laid out going on for £300 on 15mm Napoleonic figures/rules/bases lately do I stick with that and rebase/paint/play or do I buy a new set of rules for a completely different period/scale? The answer is obvious, of course I do! In my defence it wasn't really my fault. You see it happened like this.......

It was a dark and stormy night. I was trying to wrap myself round a bottle of bourbon while browsing TMP when this dame walks into my computer. She called herself 'Pulp Girl' and said she had a story to tell me, lots of stories in fact. Tales of adventure and betrayal and I was hooked. Her mid-western drawl had me mesmerised as she weaved her tales of adventurers and villains, like Singapore Smith, Dr Phlebo and Captain Wolf, following them as they criss-crossed the world from the darkest jungles to the back alleys of Marrakesh always searching for that big score. Her tales were so vivid it was like I was there watching the action as it happened, her narration providing a counterpoint to the dance of death unfolding before my eyes.

When she was done I wanted in. 'Easy' she said, 'Just give me $9.99 and you can enter a world of extrordinary action and adventure.' I had my wallet open and before I knew it she was gone with my money. A mysterious package on my desk and the heady scent of her perfume following her out into the darkness. What had I gotten myself into? Only time would tell.
