  1. We're up to ten players now, but more are always welcome.
  2. current signups updated The Faction War kicks off this coming Monday, the 14th! Join the fun!
  3. I will be updating Signups in the main post as they come in so you can see which faction has the most followers to help you decide where your alleigance lies.
  4. Hey guys, After taking a few weeks off, I am organizing another Monday night league at Pandemonium in Garden City, MI. This time I am going for a more storyline driven league so we enter FACTION WARS Starting Monday June 14th and running through July 26th $5 to signup (one time fee) Choose your faction when signing up (there is no limit to the number of players in any one faction, but those of you owning multiple crews may consider changing faction before week 2 begins to prevent overkill or maybe you don't wanna share the prize with that many people... heh) Each week players will recieve an email with Faction pairings, standings, contact info and that weeks chronicle. The chronicle will be a newspaper for the league where the storyline is detailed, challenges between players (from different or the same faction for that matter) can be advertised, perhaps you feel the neverborn are getting upity so you could try to lead a crusade against them in the coming week... the options are limitless HECK! Josh can advertise (he better actually) Twilight Emporium in it. Players may also submit there own scrap reports with or without pictures. Once Factions are paired (and since there are currently 5 you may occasionally find your faction is fighting two fronts) players are free to choose their opponents from the opposing pool of players. You will be expected to play 2 Scraps a week (same opponent or somebody else from the pool) or 1 Brawl at 50 SS OR you can organize a multiplayer game with others of your faction and their opponents if all are in agreement. Players will setup their encounters as per pg 90 of the rules and this also includes agreeing on the Soulstone amount for each game. We recommend 25 to 35 for Scraps and if you get a multiplayer game going, more than that will just bog the game down, use your best judgement. Prizes All entry fees will go into a pool that will be awarded to the faction that earns the highest average of points throughout the league. Initially, the pool is to be divided evenly, but factions will be encouraged to award a bonus to any outstanding players who helped (or carried everybody) their faction get such high scores. Pandemonium will also be randomly giving away a painted Guild Peacekeeper to one member of the league And of course Pandemonium continues offering a 10% discount on any Malifaux purchase made on Mondays This post will be updated with the current signups as they come in to show how many players are in each faction to help people choose when they sign up. This is sure to be a ton of fun see you guys there Signup in Store or declare your faction in this thread. Please PM me email so that I can send you a copy of the league handout for further explanation of rules and points. Current Faction Signups Jason Lucas - Arcanist Stephen Less - Outcast Jeremy Thomas - Ressurectionists John Spieker - Ressurectionists Josh Powers - Ressurectionists Brian Elsworth - Neverborn Chuck Tornow - Arcanists Scott Morgan - Guild Matt Glotfelty - Neverborn Jeff Ekonen - Guild
  5. Sweet sounding Con Josh! Try to stop by and see you there. The gaming tables you build are awesome!
  6. Hey Guys, So after much thought, I begin my next experiment. League 2 for Malifaux will be FREE entry. Here are some of the details. WHEN? Monday March 22nd thru Monday April 26th (Players may sign up any time during league) League players usually arrive starting around 6pm Entry Fee: Free DETAILS Choose your faction when signing up All encounters will be Scraps until weeks 4 and 5 where you can play a Brawl instead Each week you earn more Soulstones to build your crew starting with 25 Soulstones Players will be scheduled against an opponent each week, and will play 2 games Setup each encounter as per the Rulebook on pg 90 So your crew can be different each Scrap (declared faction Masters only) Each week players will be emailed the schedule and standings Soulstone allowance for the League March 22nd = 25 SS March 29th = 30 SS April 5th = 35 SS April 12th = 35 SS or a 50 SS Brawl April 19th = 35 SS or a 50 SS Brawl April 26th = Multi-player games and prizes! PRIZES Prizes will be awarded to; 1st place Outcast Ronin painted and set in display base Best in Faction Certificates Take advantage of a 10% discount on any Malifaux Purchase made on Monday nights at Pandemonium. For those of you who played in League 1, we are continuing in the same method of play with some minor changes. Scoring has switched to a Tournament Scoring method, i.e. 3 points for a win, 0 for a loss, etc. Pickup games are worth one point A player handout including all current errata and faq's will be on hand on Mondays and all players will recieve a copy via email. I am moving away from the Leagues being prize driven so people can concentrate on having fun. After this league, I do hope participants will chime in on whether or not, this is what they want or would they rather pay $5 per League for additional prizes. A pic of the Ronin will be posted once its completed.
  7. Just bumping this up and reminding anyone attending not to forget to adjust your clock for Daylight Savings, we spring forward 1 hour this Sunday morning. And a new league will be starting this Monday the 15th as well.
  8. Sorry for the delay, first post has been edited for the correct info. But yes, I ask all 3 lists be from the same faction.

  12. My shift starts at 5pm, I have all you need to try the game out, but feel free to bring your own models if you wish. I can be ready at 5 to run demos. We have also received our restock after the christmas sale, so we have almost everything in at the moment. if people are looking for mins.
  13. Hey guys, Pandemonium will be running a casual league for Malifaux starting on Monday Jan 11th and running thru Monday Feb 22nd. This will be a very casual League to help introduce players to Malifaux and give them a night of the week where they can come in and enjoy the game. Cost: $10 Players will be matched up with an opponent each week and will play 2 games against that player. You and your opponent are free to schedule your games to avoid conflicts but there will be incentives to coming into the store on Malifaux Mondays to get your League games in. DETAILS League players will declare their FACTION when signing up, All encounters will be SCRAPS. Players will begin the League with a pool of 25 Soulstones and every two weeks you will gain 5 Soulstones. You and your opponent will setup your encounter as listed in the Malifaux Rulebook pgs 90-103 This means your crew can change from game to game. The only restriction on League encounters are the following; Players are limited to 1 Scheme per Encounter Score sheets and weekly Standings will be available in the store. Weekly Pairings will be posted in store and emailed to players. Standings will be based on total VP’s earned. After 6 weeks, on Monday February 22nd, Malifaux Monday will host multiplayer games as an ending to the League and Prizes will be awarded to the winners. These include; Best in Faction Uncle Jimmy’s Soulstone Recharging Service and of course Overall Winner. Signup in the store today! Malifaux Mondays Any League players playing their game on Mondays get a 10% discount on any Malifaux purchase in the store. Pandemonium will be offering a Random Prize at the end of the League as well. All players get an entry in the drawing, but those who play their League games on Mondays get additional entries in the drawing for each game played at the store. This prize is not taken out of the entry fee and is an added incentive to play in store on Malifaux Mondays. You may proxy a miniature for any currently unreleased figure, but it should be appropriate. If you wish to play in the league but cannot come up to the store due to work schedule, we will email you all necessary paperwork if you must play off site. But again, there are incentives to be up here on Mondays. Have a friend who is thinking on trying it out, but won't commit? Bring them along and ask for Matt Weaver, demos are happily offered with everything you need to try the game out.
  14. http://wyrd-games.net/photopost/showphoto.php?photo=3017&ppuser=2625 Yes, I know, about bloody time. Here is a link to the gallery where we posted pictures of the event.
  15. Let's see my schedule for that weekend.... Saturday the 19th... going to Cinci to run a YGO Tournament.. drive back to Detroit that same evening... Meet up with Parius (cuz he will kill me if I back out of going) and drive back to Kettering for the charity event I get to play in. You'll know its me when you see the idiot trying to play Viktoria's crew while trying to stay vertical and awake. I can see it now.... "You really wanna move there?" "I know what I am doing thank you very muchzzzzsnrrckznzzzzzzzz"
  16. OOOOOOO! Good Idea! I will tell him to write one up, I was nearly beside myself listening to him talk about that round, "Where I discovered that Perdita was pretty damn amazing... as long as a goblin doesn't shoot her in the face with a BAZOOOKA!!!"
  17. I just wanted to pipe in and say thanks to everybody who came to this tournament. There were quite a few unforseen logistical problems to deal with but I can't say enough how much I appreciated everybody's patience with turn around time on the rounds. I have run tournaments for so many games, so I felt pretty confident coming into this that I could handle it with no trouble, but as they've said, there are always teething problems with new games and attempting to put them in a competitive atmosphere. There were no complaints about opponents, everybody took everything in stride and treated each other in a helpful manner which is what I hoped for. Thank you to Kyle... (is it pronounced Kyle or... KYLEE? perhaps?) who's name I probably butchered all day. The cookies you baked and shared with everybody were awesome and a welcome treat! I learned tons about what worked for the format and what really didn't. I swear, I honestly thought making the last round Slaughter for both players would simplify things... but under review, not exactly the best idea, but with a round to go at 7:30pm.... at least everyone knew my heart was in the right place. Congrats to my top 4 and I am kinda geeked that someone running Seamus took the prize. Thank you again (waffling I know) to all who attended. We hope to offer another event in the future, but for now, I am focusing on setting up a campaign starting in January. Here were my final standings. 1st: Jacob Davis (Ressurectionist) 2nd: Chris Schmidt (Guild) 3rd: Jeremy Murray (Neverborn) 4th: Guillermo Hernandez (Ressurectionist) 5th: Russel Charles (Neverborn) 6th: Dustin Smith (Outcasts) 7th: Brian Ellsworth (Guild) 8th: Chuck Tornow (Arcanists) 9th: Jason Lucas (Arcanists) 10th: Gordon Carpenter (Arcanists) 11th: Robert Fuller (Arcanists) 12th: Matt Glotfelty (Guild) 13th: Josh Powers (Resurrectionist) 14th: Luke Bowsher (Guild) 15th: Dave Bowen (Neverborn) 16th: John Heaps (Guild) 17th: Kyle Priddy (Arcanists) 18th: Michael Benoit (Guild) 19th: Chuck Elswick (Guild) 20th: Mike Bowsher (Arcanists) 21st: Bill McAllister (Neverborn) 22nd: Greg Ellsworth (Arcanists) 23rd: Matt Sibley (Arcanists) 24th: Nathan Sawyer (Arcanists) 25th: John Hunter (Outcasts) SEE I told you, you weren't in Last place! 26th: Jeff Ekonen (Guild) who probably doesn't like me as much for that last comment, but I know you still had fun man. I took multiple pictures and will be posting them soon. I had a great time running the event guys, thanks for making it a success!
  18. Alrighty, time for a bump and a copy of our player handout online. You will still get a copy when you arrive and we will be providing a Crew List for you to fill out so that we can submit info to Wyrd as to what's being played. Greetings Players and welcome to this event showcasing the game Malifaux. This is a simple information sheet to remind players what they can expect in today’s tournament. First and foremost, the main objective today is to have fun in a competitive environment, but as it is free to enter and people are still learning we encourage a relaxed helpful attitude towards each other. The prizes to win are very cool, but it should never be reason for any kind of rules lawyer tactics or any manipulation of any game states, if one finds his or her opponent less experienced with the game than themselves. We will be enforcing a strict penalty system of any player abusing Slow Play or their rules knowledge against their opponent. You will get one warning, and after which there will be a game loss penalty assessed if such tactics continue. If it continues after that point to be an issue, a player can be disqualified and removed from the event. We wish people to have a good time and expect players extending courtesy towards each other. Now this sounds a little heavy, but I assure you it is done for the benefit of all participants. Now that that has been said, on with the rest of the show. Players will build Crews with a value up to 30 Soulstones We will be playing 4 Rounds. Each round will be 1 hour and 20 Minutes and the encounter will be a Scrap. During the round player will use the Varying Game Length rules in the book. You will play to 6 Turns and then the player who activated the last model begins flipping Fate Cards to see if the game continues another turn on a value of 10 or higher. This will continue turn by turn until a player flips a card with a value of 9 or less. At the end of the encounter, players will total their VP’s and the higher score is determined the winner. If players are tied in VP’s, then the encounter is a draw. If time ends before players can complete 6 turns and the Varying Game Length rules, then the following occurs for end of time procedure. 1. Any current ACTION is resolved and then play stops and players compare VP’s to determine a winner or a Draw. 2. If Time is called before a player can declare an action, NO further actions are taken, play stops and you compare VP’s to determine a Winner or a Draw. There is no scheduled lunch break, but I have no issues with Food and Drink being brought into the event area as long as you take steps to avoid damaging any property belonging to each other or the store. There are multiple delivery menus available in the store if players wish to band together and order Pizza or Chinese food for example. At the beginning of a round the following happens. 1. The organizer will assign players to a table and will give each player a match slip labeling them as either Player 1 or 2. 2. Locations will be determined by the organizer and listed on your match slips. 3. Terrain is static, so players will not have to determine any terrain placement. Please avoid moving terrain on your board for future rounds. 4. Players will determine their deployment using the Deployment Chart on pg 92 of the Rulebook. 5. Strategies will be randomly determined by the organizer after players have deployed. The organizer will flip once to determine the Strategy that all players with “Player 1” on their match slip will use. He will then flip again to determine what all players with “Player 2” on their slip will receive as their Strategy. If a Joker is flipped, then the organizer chooses the Strategy…. (cue maniacal laughter). If the players receive the Strategy Assassinate, then the target of the Strategy should be noted VERY CLEARLY on the Match Slip. If you are trying to assassinate a “Unique” model, then writing down the name of the unique model is an acceptable description of the target. If you are targeting a non unique model (ex. Punk Zombie and there are 3 on the board) you are to be very descriptive to avoid any confusion over which model is the actual target. 6. Players will then choose their 1 Scheme and write it down on the Match Slip. You may announce it BEFORE the encounter begins for the extra VP. If you choose not to announce it before the encounter begins, then you are playing for only 1 additional VP. Any Scheme that has you designating a model or piece of Terrain as a target of the Scheme, then that target should be VERY CLEARLY noted (as above) on your match slip. This applies to Bodyguard, Kidnap, Sabotage or Stake a Claim. 7. The event will have players using the same Crew for each round so as to encourage building a tactically flexible force and not min/maxing their options each round. 8. Encounter Features. Players may flip for High Card to decide who will flip to determine the Encounter feature or they may simply agree for one of them to do it. 9. Special Events will be determined as normal. Any Special terrain such as the 5”x5”area for Claim Jump or any Encounter Features will be provided by the store as a properly cut piece of paper.
  19. Added information, and a picture of the give away terrain that TwilightEmporium donated for the event to the first post. Check it out!
  20. Proxies for unreleased models are more then welcome, so long as they are representative of the model they stand in for, and you let your opponents know before the game starts what your proxies are. (Parius would kill me if he couldn't use the electrical creation he's building) :tongue1:
  21. Yes, I'll be running http://wyrd-games.net/forum/showthread.php?t=8805 on the 22nd.
  22. I received word this afternoon, that Josh from TwilightEmporium (http://www.twilightemporium.net/) Plans to donate a Terrain Set for the event. At the end of the tournament, the set will be randomly given away to one of the players! Once the terrain set has been dropped off at the store, I'll add the info about it to the first post, as well as pictures.
  23. Strategies will be flipped by me for each round. Each match will have a player A, and a player B. All A's will play the same strat, and all B's will do the same. This event will use a single list.
