	''Ruffians'' - Wastrel - Much maligned by most McCabe players and by almost all Ten Thunder players, Ruffians currently have no place in most lists. Unless Explorer's Society has some bomb minion upgrades, they will have their cool, 'Ultraviolent' theme and that's about it. They're not BAD, per say, but there are so many better options in Ten Thunders. Thunder Brothers are just a better Ruffian, even though they lack a ranged attack. If you are going to use Ruffians, which, you may want one as a point filler, or against Pandora as a MAYBE tech piece, the best thing they can do is Walk and Shoot. Burn the focus every time and hope for a Tome if you can get it, or go for a Ram if you wanna splash damage. Chain Gang is the best thing these guys bring to the table and it's still not that good. If you are using them in a McCabe list, they are actually a more point efficient way to set up for False Claim then using the AP on a more valuable model, but it's, again, not strictly required to do so. The Miss sculpt is pretty nice, though.		''Ruffians'' - Wastrel - Much maligned by most McCabe players and by almost all Ten Thunder players, Ruffians currently have no place in most lists.

			*** Seamus is probably the most famous killer in the Malifaux world. Like any famous killer in the Victorian Age, some Copycat exists and try to do the same thing as their celebrity. This is probably one the best totem and dispose of very strongs passives/actives. He has a nice defense of 5 and Terrifying (11) because of poeple mistaking him for the real guy. His size of 1 allow him to hide nicely behind small walls. With this option, he can run everywhere without getting killed too fast because he dispose of only 4 health (which is pretty average for a totem). As a copycat, he is considered insignifiant, so he can't do interactions or objectives and doesn't count as one. BUT, if he kill someone and this is an objective, the kill is considered to be done by Seamus. As Seamus, he can both ignore the friendly fire malus and even receive bonus card when attacking (in melee or distance). He dispose of 2 attack action and one OP free action. His melee attack is low damage with a range of 1" and a base of 2/2/4 with a +5 to hit, which is OK-. His flintlock has a range of 8" and a base damage of 2/3/4 and a bonus to shoot of +4... pretty bad, shot only when you can't do another thing or with a friend in melee. And last but not least, "Mistaken Identity" allows Seamus to switch place with the Copycat. This action may be a little tricky because, in order, you have to: drop a marker near the Copycat, pick the totem and place it at base contact near Seamus, pick Seamus and place it anywhere base to base to the marker (which allow you to move a little more) and then remove the marker. Now you dispose of a teleporting assassin with a Desert Eagle .50 flintlock.

			*** The dashing teleporting Beast hiding outside of the map monster of Redchapel. Unlike all the faction she doesn't have a "Hard to [...]" but still possess Terrifying(11). If she is attacked by any opponent attack, she can reduce the damage by 2 and disapear from the battlefield. Now if any foe ends his movement near her while not his turn, she gains fast. At this moment, she can hit pretty strong with her average damage of 2/3/4 she has an awesome +6 to hit with an automatic Positive card. She have 3 trigger options : +1 Damage or Slow or Bury her. Her second option is the debuff a target, forcing the target to suffer 2 damage if the target Cheat Fate (and with a trigger, you can draw 2 card). A very good option in order to prepare a focus on a Master. Next are her 2 free action. "Rise again" allow her to came back from Bury, then charge. On a good combo, you could get Fast, attack with a soulstone to bury after, unbury and charge, attack and attack again. Which mean 4 attacks in one round which is almost unique ! The last free action "Trail of Gore" needs an enemy Scheme Marker to have a free Walk or Melee attack. In conclusion, she may not have a great damage value but she has to potential of 4 melee attack at +6 w/ positive card bonus. A very good and fast damaging Enforcer.

	*** Ghostly widow spitting their grief over poeple. Has a nice defence of 5, can't be charged and is hard to wound. If anyone is killed in the aura of 6, she Heals 1. At the beginning of the game she can place a corpse maker anywhere on ~~the her~~ Crew deployement zone, ~~usefull~~ for her attack "Feed on Grief". Finally, her last passive cancel every enemy Ruthless ability (in an aura of 6") which is awesome because Redchapel defense is really based on Terrifying or Manipulative effects. Her basic attack has a pretty average damage of 2/3/4 with an average +5 to hit. But she possess a distance attack called "Feed on Grief" which allow her to earn automaticaly a Positive Card to attack if she is near a Corpse Marker. The base damage is not really interesting (2/2/4) but on a Trigger she can teleport on the target and if she kills him, she heals 2 (which synergize with her passive). Her free action is "Mourn the Dead" which is more a Scheme canceler. In an aura of 3", she can cancel the possession of a Scheme Marker interesting against the Breakthrough Schemes of Gaining Grounds Season 1. TL;DR, a nice support, almost a scheme runner, and hit pretty nice.		*** Ghostly widow spitting their grief over poeple. Has a nice defence of 5, can't be charged and is hard to wound.

	*** ~~TBD~~		*** The Psychotic Bad Guy, a fusion of Jack and the Joker (check Molly story if you don't agree). Let's talk passives. He possess a great deal of defenses : Terrifying(12), hard to kill and a Willpower of 7 ! Also if anyone lose a willpower duel against him, he heal 2. BUT, he has a defense of 4, he is very vulnerable against anyone ignoring Terrifying or with a great Willpower. Be careful about those because it means you have to defend against an average of 5/6 +hit. Apart that, he has one of the most Huge damage potential, his Flintlock .50. Not only the name is ridiculous but the damage is 4/6/8 ignoring hard to wound. His bag of tool is not to be ignored too, with a damage range of 2/3/5 pretty average, you can use a trigger to Execute someone if he doesn't have any card or soulstone, ignoring the Demise !!! That means, you can end pretty much every Golem or Lady Justice and her immortal friends like that. Next is Terrorize, you can push your adversaries up to their Mouvement away from (and if they fail, you heal, don't forget your passive). and you can inflict 3 damages too with a trigger ! At last but not the least, Secret Passage allow you to teleport within 12" on the map if you are at 1" of a building and end your movement at 1" of terrain. You can evade combat, you can teleport to assassinate then come back with your teleport or use your Totem to do so. It's one of your best Actions but it's TN14. Finally, your free action allow you to ignore special requirement in card, so you can Terrorize friends or shoot again BUT, you have to be near a corpse marker in the enemy table half. It shouldn't be hard with your gun, terrorize and Redchapel other minions. An upgrade with the Whisper could be really great allowing you to reorder the next 3 card in your deck and each time you kill, you draw a card.
