Malifaux 3rd Edition Hoffman Core Box Miniatures Game Set

The Malifaux 3rd Edition Hoffman Core Box is a starter set for the popular skirmish-level tabletop miniatures game set in the alternate-history, steampunk and horror-infused world of Malifaux. This specific box focuses on the Ten Thunders faction, a powerful syndicate seeking control through intelligence and patience. It provides everything needed for two players to begin playing, featuring a complete crew of highly detailed, multi-part plastic miniatures that require assembly and painting, along with the essential game components and stat cards for the included models. The game itself is renowned for its streamlined third edition ruleset and intuitive hiring system, which allows for deep strategic list-building and dynamic gameplay. Matches are typically small-scale skirmishes resolved using a unique card-based fate deck instead of traditional dice, adding an element of controlled chance and hand management. The miniatures are known for their characterful sculpts, capturing the gothic, Victorian-era aesthetic mixed with arcane magic and strange technology that defines the Malifaux setting. This core box is ideally suited for newcomers to the hobby looking for a rich narrative game with moderate complexity, as well as existing Malifaux players aiming to expand their collection with the Ten Thunders. It offers a self-contained gaming experience that fits well into casual play sessions and organised events. The models provide an excellent project for hobbyists who enjoy the building and painting process, resulting in a personalised crew ready for the tabletop.
