Wyrd Games has posted the rules for their recently updated Malifaux: 2nd Edition for download through DriveThruRPG absolutely free. Granted, this edition doesn’t have all the bells and whistles of the core rulebook but if you’ve ever been interested in checking out Wyrd’s bizarre Steampunk/Horror skirmish level mash up now is the time without having to spend a solitary penny.
From Wyrd:
Based in an alternate Earth, Malifaux uses gothic, steampunk, and victorian horror with a dose of the wild west to inject fun and depth into the magical lawlessness of a world rife with monsters, necropunks, man-machine hybrids, gunslingers, and powerhungry politicos. Actively using character-driven stories to define the world of Malifaux, seek your fortune in this fast paced and brutal 32mm tabletop miniature skirmish game. Assemble your crew and stake your claim!
This rules manual includes an expanded index and provides all of the rules which you need to play Malifaux Second Edition in one compact volume. Grab your Fate Deck, it’s time to cheat fate or lose your soul …
No longer do you have to trust the fickle fate of a dice roll, in Malifaux you use cards, a Fate Deck, as you lead your Crew to victory with strategy, tactics and resource management, and if that isn’t enough, you can Cheat Fate.
Looking for scalability? Malifaux has it. Jump directly into a Scrap with 4 – 6 miniatures, ensuring a quick and brutal fight with each character having unique skills and abilities. Want to escalate it? Take it to a Brawl, bring in additional members of your faction or hire out mercenaries to do your dirty work.
