Malifaux M2E Tournament

 

Diabolica

 

PFC Games 7528 Olympic View Dive Suite #106, Edmonds, WA 98026

 

(425) 670-0550

 

 

 

I plan on hosting a Malifaux tournament the fourth Saturday of Every month (except August and December 2016) at PFC games. Formats will vary depending on feedback.  Most tournaments will be 50 SS fixed faction or “something different”.

 

 

 

This event will follow the guidelines in Gaining Grounds 2016, with the following exceptions;

 

Proxy, Conversion, and Painting Rules

 

·         Avatar’s are an exception to the proxy rules below. Any master mounted on the appropriate sized base (I think all avatars are on  50mm bases) can be used to represent that master in their avatar form.

 

·         Proxy models are not allowed if Wyrd has released the model (not counting limited releases like the Black Friday sales). Proxies are allowed for unreleased models as long as they are appropriate representations of the model they stand for. Wyrd models may only be used to represent what they are, unless they are converted. Please check in advance with the organizer for suitability.

 

·         Conversions are an excellent way to show off your modeling skills. If using a model that was converted with pre-made bits, only 30% of the model may be built from other game companies’ models, while the rest has to be self-sculpted or Wyrd bits.

 

·         Models must be assembled (glued) and fixed to the appropriate size base. However, there will be a prize for the best painted model (see below).

 

Entry Fee

 

$3 entry fee (waived for PFC members).
