  12. My Gencon Wrap up

    in News, Reviews, & Discussion

    Posted

    Well, another Gencon is over.

    I must say that I had an absolute blast as always. This was my 6th Gencon since 2004, and I think each one gets better and better.

    Most of that is due to the people.

    I have several friends that meet me in Indy every year, but I always manage to make a few new ones, and meet a few new people.

    Zee, I had an absolute blast playing PitchCar with you and your friends on Wednesday night, I wish I had been able to catch up with you on Saturday night to get that game in.

    Weird Sketch, I have to say thanks for running a great tournament!

    It was an absolute blast!

    Thank you once again.

    Chatting with Nathan, and once again realizing that the success of Malifaux, is directly related to how nice of a guy he really is.

    Meeting Jessica, and actually getting to watch her paint for a few.

    (I cannot wait to get my hands on those Stitched Together)

    Watching Eric paint, and seeing the progress on his Chompy Bits (amazing)

    Playing Jeremy (AoM) in the tournament was great.

    Although I still think he had at least 5 red jokers in his deck:angryfire

    Not a thing could have gone better.

    Well I suppose I could have won the tournament, but that is another matter.

    And last but not least, I have not been able to put the new book down since I got home.

    The fluff is fantastic, and the new characters open up whole new realms of possibilities for the game!

    I may even try to get some paint on Chompy this weekend.

    Thanks, I promise to make it down to Tampa sooner than later. I need some idea of what a good starting force would comprise of.

    I like them all.

    How do you all like the rules? I am very intrigued by the card system.

    Talk to you soon,

    Magnus

    PS Yes I missed you all at Gencon as well.

    The rules are awesome, and have just enough complexity to be challenging and fun.

    The card system is innovative, and a very nice break from dice. It introduces a resource management element to the game as well (I love that part)

    As far as this game goes, I have not been this excited over a game since C3 premiered.

    As far as what starter to get, I would just choose a group one that has the most appeal to you. From what I can tell, they are all remarkably balanced, but they all play very different.

    Knowing you, I would probably suggest a guild starter. Probably Perdita and her family, or Lady Justice.

    Or possibly Rasputina and her December crew.

    I think any of these 3 would suit your playstyle

    Tedset!!

    Great to see you online again!

    Tony's invitation stands firm, anytime you can make it to Tampa, you would be more than welcome.

    Saw Alphonso at gencon, and he filled us in on the details of your absence, but it was not the same without you old friend.
