Malifaux Burns Part 7: The Ten Thunders

The Ten Thunders thrive on chaos.  They're opportunists, always looking for an edge that they can leverage against the more established factions, and it's possible that the Burning Man is just that edge.  Of course, he's not the kind...

Malifaux Burns Part 6: The Bayou

Malifaux Burns, Part 3: The Arcanists

Malifaux Burns, Part 2: The Resurrectionists

Today we're going to be seeing how everyone's favorite gang of puckish, mass-murdering scamps is handling Malifaux's outbreak of mind-melting insanity.  Spoiler alert: not well!  You'd think Resurrectionists thrive on chaos, but they've already got an otherworldly patron, the the Burning...
