Bodiless Posted April 23, 2014 Report Share Posted April 23, 2014 So, as someone who grew up in NH I have to ask - is the title a typo or a play on the lack of dice in Malifaux? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeregrineFalcon Posted April 23, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 23, 2014 I just saw this. I will do my best to be there! Awesome. Hope to see you there! So, as someone who grew up in NH I have to ask - is the title a typo or a play on the lack of dice in Malifaux? I wish I could take credit for being so good at coming up with a pun like that, alas, I am not. But now that you say that, it may have to be the new name next year, and years on-going. Regardless, it was a typo, as I intended for it to be "Live Free or Die Cheating", but after posting I can't change the title so it had to stay. Great question though. Where in NH are you from? Are you able to attend? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bodiless Posted April 23, 2014 Report Share Posted April 23, 2014 I grew up in the town of Meriden, which even NH natives are unlikely to find without google's help. Alas I am now living outside of DC, so that would be a bit of a hike... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mirrsith Posted April 23, 2014 Report Share Posted April 23, 2014 Just curios but if we are allowed to sub models why are we required to have them primed? I ask as a new player my stuff is assembled but not primed and I am unlikely to get it primed before the tournament.? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeregrineFalcon Posted April 23, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 23, 2014 Just curios but if we are allowed to sub models why are we required to have them primed? I ask as a new player my stuff is assembled but not primed and I am unlikely to get it primed before the tournament.? Great question! Proxies are being allowed since a lot of models aren't available for various factions, but have official rules. The painting rule is usually separate. Therefore, because I want to have a healthy attendance and know that there is potential for a large amount of players who are just getting into the game I don't want them to feel like they can't play. Hence the concept of having models primed, showing you are 'in-progress' and putting an effort in to getting your models painted. After all, playing with these models all painted up just looks awesome on the table! If you don't have your models primed, that's fine (I'll update the original rules), but assembled is a must and on bases is a must. Painting will someday be a requirement, but at this time there are still so many new players that we will let it fly for now. The goal is again, showing you are putting in effort to get your crew painted up. Thanks and if you have any more questions let me know. Hope to see you (and many others) there!! Cheers, -Adam H.

Mirrsith Posted April 23, 2014 Report Share Posted April 23, 2014 Much appreciated! I know that most of us play multiple games and as such it is at times tough to prioritize what needs to be completed. As of right now I have completed all of my scheme tokens, trees bases and even my gupp eggs just not enough time in the day! I look forward to meeting you at the tournament. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeregrineFalcon Posted April 28, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 28, 2014 Looks like we have a little friendly rivalry going. I have received various 'threats' that the Massachusetts players are attempting to take first place this event. Who in New Hampshire will stand up and protect us from this "Tax Paying", "Bad Driving" Mali-n00bs? http://www.dorkamorka.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=97264#p97264 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PeregrineFalcon Posted April 28, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 28, 2014 Don't forget the Rhode Island Contingent (me)! I'll be fighting for last place! Going to be awesome to have 3 states represented. Hoping some of the CT players can make it up. Will be great. Just as an FYI, I have no pre-registers so while I have a little SWAG prepared for players, if I don't have a good estimate of number of players I won't have a good gauge of tables to have setup or how many 'swag' items I need.

PeregrineFalcon Posted April 30, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 30, 2014 Got it, updated the main post and will continue to keep track of who has pre-regged......Ahem so far only 1. I know a lot more are coming, but pre-reg helps me gauge tables, prizes, and rounds, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
