The guy who won the painting contest is one of my locals. I will pull my camera out and get some shots of his Crew.

Hey Doug!

Those little claws go onto the spider legs of the one that's standing on his spider legs.

Use their stat card for a reference.

Send me a PM or something. About Alkemy and such. I swung by your booth and didn't see ya.

See that ain't cool. As I will be playing Outcasts and Arcanists, but will be uesing the Neverborn deck as it is my favorite color.

It's perfectly cool.

The color is the only custom bit of the Fate Decks. All the decks are the same. The only difference is a colored stripe on the back of the cards. If your favorite color is purple, then by all means use a purple deck!

Oh jeez... I got those back in the late 90's... I'm not sure they're available anywhere anymore.

Welcome! Glad you love the game!

Zoraida is a tricky and evil old woman!

1st ever Malifaux "nationals" event!

I want to preface this post with a huge thank you to TTGamers (http://www.ttgamers.com/) for giving us space in their mini's room to allow us to cram all of the new slavering Malifaux fans in there and invade their tables all weekend long!

Kain, the next drink's on me!

Secondly, I'd like to thank the the people whose efforts made the first event go so smoothly! Regardless of the pizza cheese fire drill.

Thanks to Eric & Nathan for the world we all get to play around in.

Thanks to Ambrose & Dan for hammering the rules into shape.

And thanks to Ambrose, Steve, Dan Sulin & Jeremy for helping me answer any questions that popped up. You guys rock!

On to the meat of the matter.

We are still working out the kinks of the Malifaux tournament organization, but I think we did OK for our first venture.

What we did was select a strategy that both crews were attempting to simultaneously achieve. Then we allowed the player to select one scheme that they could choose to reveal to their opponent or not for more possible Victory Points.

The top three players were:

1st place: Kevin Tyska fielding Zoraida the Hag and her crew of nasties.

2nd place: Derick Rodriguez using the Viktoria twins and their band of beatdown.

3rd place: There was a tie! We had Anthony Pazera cutting through his opposition with the Mother of Monsters, Lilith and Richard Standeter with Lady Justice and the grim Death Marshals.

We also held a painting contest for the best painted Crew on the tables. After the second round we gave everyone a break and perused the entries. And after some deliberation we chose Victor Szafranski's Ramos crew.

Lastly, I'd like to thank all of you who participated in the demos and the event. Without your enthusiasm or curiosity, we wouldn't have had such a successful convention!

I hope to see you all again at the next event and maybe I'll be staring at your crew accross the table myself!

I'm glad you had fun! I know I did. My vocal cords are definitely hating me right now though.

They are some very "slippery" models to be sure.

I can't get enough of the catfish-men!

I'm sad that I forgot to get a copy at the show... But Brett was selling them through our LGS at the show. Perhaps they'll still have a book for me to buy.

Welcome!

I'm sad we didn't have a chance to talk more at the show, but I'm glad you caught the bug!

Those brain tokens were mine.

I got those years ago when Chaosium had their Cthulhu CCG called Mythos.

The stat cards now are packaged with their respective models.

Eesh...

Sorry to hear the terrible news. I hope that everything works out for the best.

But they have BACON, Weird Sketch! BACON makes everything better... yes, even zombies.

You read my mind!

mmmmmm... Bacon...

Or gremlins. (depending on the list)

Yes Gremlins.

But the original poster was asking specifically about Resurrectionist models now wasn't he?

*Looks*

Yep. That's what he was asking about.

For the Res, I suggest a coupl extra blisters of each. Seeing as they can "make" more models during the game as opposed to other factions. (Not counting Ramos!)

I'll be running a Primer/Demo seminar on Wednesday evening (time still to be determined). At either the TTG room (CC201) or in the Marriot (right across the street from the convention center).

No. You don't have to base them with magnets. You'll be able to record and keep track of damage on their respective stat card.

And no, you can't mix and match the little critters... Yet.

So no putting 2 kitties with an arachnid and mixing their stats up.

Hot damn!

There's a special terrain effect that opens a Soulstone vein also.

What's that phrase about Dead Hookers?

Seamus all the way!

Two father son teams? Hot Dang! Now we've got enough to have a real battle for the Thirty-Fourth Annual Bayou Zombie-fish Noodling Invitational!

:fight:

Where's my invitation to that?? :sad2:

You'll love the game!

And Welcome to Wyrd!

Where's my Hoarcat plushie?!?!?!?!?!

You convert Polar Bear and I'm sure you'll get a full set of plushies from him. :dance:
