Malifaux RPG a possibility?

[MagickalMemories]

Forgive me, if this has been hashed out. I did a search for "Malifaux" and "RPG," but nothing came up.
Same result just using "RPG."

I'm wondering if there has been any discussion of branching out into the RPG world with Malifaux?

Being a new player, I'm studying the rulebook. Every time I hit some fiction, I stop to read it.
--I LOVE THIS STUFF--

The worlds that it paints are just fantastic; both Malifaux and the in-game "real world."

I'm seriously a hardcore D&D fan. Old school D&D. I run a regular game, and it's 2e AD&D, because I don't like anything else. I would convert this group to a Malifaux group, if there was a decent RPG published or if I could get in on a beta/playtest.
I'd do it in a heartbeat, and I'm certain my group would convert right along with me!

I'd love to know any rumblings about this, whether pro or con.

Alternatively, has anyone tried converting the Malifaux setting to d20 or some other RPG system?

Well the rich background that's been created certainly provides alot of potential for an RPG.

Generally my interest in RPGs is, well, absent (lack of time - playing and running a wargames club is more than enough!). But I certainly wouldn't begrudge a Malifaux RPG. Hell, I might even pick up the book for the background. :D

In other words: "We're kicking the idea around but don't want to get your hopes up".

I don't work for the company, the above is just what I immediately thought when I saw that reply.

That said, I've been thinking about using GURPS to run a Malifaux campaign. It should be a fairly straightforward port. I just wish I had more fluff to work with.

There are a few threads about a Malifaux RPG somewhere... they just don't register when being searched for, oddly enough... There were some good ideas being tossed around on those threads, for anyone who is interested.

On that note, however, I would fully support an official Malifaux RPG should Wyrd make one...

I don't know, this reads to me more like it's in the works than not wanting to get hopes up. I mean, it's not like he said

"about a Malifaux RPG"

He said

"about Malifaux: RPG"

That's vaguely namelike! With an "a", it's even somewhat specific! I'm watching your typing style, Eric!

A Malifaux Role Playing Game would be legendary, as long as they have some kind of card system. I don't know how well a deck of cards would work in an RPG I do know that Cthulhu Tech you have the ability to use a deck of cards or Roll Dice. So something like that would be cool.

What would be wrong with the current Malifaux card mechanic? With a tiny amount of alteration, it could be perfect, IMO. (Plus, we know it works... why try and fix it if it ain't broke?)

Plus it would be perfectly interchangeable with the Minis Game. And we all know we want more people getting into the Minis game XD
