Clousseau Posted December 19, 2012 Report Share Posted December 19, 2012 (edited) The Lost Love tournament will take place at Tabletop Nation in Hockley, Essex (near Southend) on Sunday 17th February. To encourage newer players (and challenge everyone else) this will be fixed master, 25SS from a pool consisting of any starter box, the master's totem (if not in the box) and 1 blister or box of minions (not henchmen). Summoned/created/grown models do not have to come from the pool, but only 1 additional type to those in the pool will be allowed. (So Lilith could take Terror Tots & Nekima, then grow the Tots into Young Nephs [type not in pool] then those into Mature Nephs [type in pool]). The event will be unranked, and 4 x 105 min rounds. £10 entry - prizes dependant upon no. entrants (no limit on entries). In the short term TTN are hosting the pack here: http://www.tempusfugitives.co.uk/pdf/lostlove.pdf Tickets can be purchased here:http://tabletopnation.simpletix.com/Event/9/Malifaux-Lost-Love-Sun-17th-Fe/ Crews won't need to be painted, but there will be a prize for best painted Master - and for best Supply Wagon marker.

Pox Posted December 20, 2012 Report Share Posted December 20, 2012 in the same way you can't use a henchmen box, I doubt you can buy a henchman starter box and add a master blister! just a quick one but do the twins count as two blisters and thus unable to be used? either way will prob be using lilith if get the time off work. (*umm now to see if can squeeze killjoy in as the support blister...*) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clousseau Posted December 20, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 20, 2012 tbh not sure the twins would work that well in a 25SS list. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pox Posted December 20, 2012 Report Share Posted December 20, 2012 tbh not sure the twins would work that well in a 25SS list. just want to know what can legally use for the tournament as prefer using fully painted crews and since I can fit killjoy into a 25ss list pretty certain could squeeze in the twins if I tried, sometimes silly combinations can give surprising results.

Clousseau Posted December 21, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 21, 2012 Mike u already have a blister on your foot. It's on a Sunday again and clashes with the club day �� Its a Sunday 'cos more people can come, and I avoided the last one of the month on your advice! No excuse this time! Live a little and come out and have some real fun, rather than going to the club:1_Happy_Puppet2: Just need to convince the missus she should take the leap into playing at a tournament too. That's exactly the idea - to encourage new players, and then build up the size of the games during the year (3 tournies planned at TTN).

Gorbad Posted December 21, 2012 Report Share Posted December 21, 2012 (edited) As it turned out she didn't need convincing at all, so that will be the two of us going! Been years since I've gone out to events, this is going to be fun. Does the Student of Conflict count as the Viks totem?...:Combat_Puppet: Edited December 21, 2012 by Gorbad Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LupusFerreus Posted December 21, 2012 Report Share Posted December 21, 2012 I think I'm going to be up for this, depending on whether I have any more holiday left (working weekends sucks). I'm thinking with Kirai (new project) or Perdita. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattspooner Posted December 21, 2012 Report Share Posted December 21, 2012 Tempted to come, 25ss and thevbox rules I get. Summoning? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clousseau Posted December 21, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 21, 2012 Not thought about summoned models (being a Guild player). On one hand summoned models don't come from the pool, on the other hand I want to limit models to appeal t newer players. Thoughts? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LupusFerreus Posted December 21, 2012 Report Share Posted December 21, 2012 I think if people are here to learn the game, summoning is a part of the game and should be allowed. New players need to learn how to do it and how to play against it. Not allowing it might hurt some masters too much to want to learn.

Gorbad Posted December 21, 2012 Report Share Posted December 21, 2012 Isn't one of the typical complaints that summoning is actually rather hard to do effectively? Also, it would seem kind a mean to strip away abilities from some masters without impairing others and I would think that at 25 you are unlike to get enough counters on the board at any one time for summoning to be an issue anyway, even if people try and make it a big feature.

Pox Posted December 21, 2012 Report Share Posted December 21, 2012 (edited) Kirai is particularly adept at summoning IIRC, it does seem to be one of her things though and to strip her of the abilities completely seems a little harsh especially if it belongs to a new person just starting out, wishing to try and get to grips with her. Though an expert playing with her could most likely bring the pain quite quickly. It might impact the game at 25ss but then again so does a sword to the face! Its more that it completely gets around the 1 blister limit and allows players to expand their available pool significantly that seems to be the problem. In a 25ss game where the crews could be individually selected this would be less of a problem but since everyone is under such strict restrictions it does make sense to limit summoning to prevent people having access to a significantly wider pool of models. perhaps you could provide an extra blister to people who wish to summon (like a flesh construct, voodoo doll, shikome etc.) and that can only be summoned into play along with models in their 25ss pool that can be summoned as it would simply be more of the same (sheisin, onyo etc.) So if someone does want to summon a lot of different creatures they would need to adapt their 25ss pool to reflect this. In essence Kirai player could take from their box: 1 Seishin 1 Onryo Kira (8ss pool) Totem: Lost Love Blister: Shikome Summoning: Ikiryo Allowing her to summon Ikiryo as her summoning model, or more Seishin, Onryo, Shikome as her party already contains these type of models but not gaki as these are not any of the models this set up has included in their pool. Still allows summoning, but limits the models available to help new players and prevent a distinct advantage in model selection over everybody else. what do people think?
