The Guild of Mercantilers is often seen as an omnipresent, ever-vigilant force that protects citizens against criminals and the monsters that roam Malifaux. What few people realize is that this strength is a carefully maintained illusion. Protection of the people is a secondary motivation at best; their interests lie only in Soulstones, and each shipment sent back to Earth helps solidify their stranglehold over the world’s most powerful nations.
Originally established as a means to reinvigorate the long-dulled sense of adventure of its founder, the Explorer’s Society has since expanded to focus on unfurling the mysteries of Malifaux and beyond. These aristocrats, dark tourists, and pioneers venture into the unknown corners of this world to seek knowledge, discover new locations, and hunt big game. While their motivations are unclear, their recent push to amass rare artifacts is not.
Cornelus Basse
The Guild’s newest recruit is a tough, no-nonsense sheriff who has been given the task of bringing order to the more remote areas of Malifaux. These frontiersmen thrive in the wilds of Malifaux, utilizing the terrain on the board to offer both protection and tools to punish their enemies. As a leader, Basse focuses on punishing his foes, whether through his innate damage potential, or from repositioning them through the shifting terrain of the Malifaux landscape. In addition to harnessing the terrain of the battlefield, Basse and the Frontier Crew are inherently pushing the boundaries of Guild’s territory and the known lands of Malifaux using their Home on the Range Ability, extending the distance they can deploy at the start of the game.
This Core Box contains the Master Cornelius Basse model and some enforcer and minion characters within the “Frontier” keyword.
Core Boxes are the recommended starting point for players looking to get into Malifaux for the first time or expand beyond their initial crew. In order to best combat each encounter within Malifaux, players are encouraged to pick up more than one Core Box within their faction, allowing them to change their playstyle on the fly.
