I intend to put the tickets on sale for this on 1st Feb at 7pm. Will post the relevant link near the time. They will be £40 and there will be 128 of them. Please spread the word as I wouldnt want people to miss out by not knowing they were available

The point of only having one box of each generalist upgrades is to restrict who can have what each round. Not all the resser players can have decaying aura for instance. Delibrate game decision on my part

Currently this is the list of masters that will be in the random picks. Might change slightly but on the whole this is how it will be Guild: Lady Justice,Lucius,Hoffman,Perdita Arcanist: Marcus,Mei Feng,Rasputina,Colette Du Bois Resurrectionist: Yan Lo,McMourning (well duh!),Seamus,Molly Neverborn: Collodi,Dreamer,Lynch,Lilith Outcast: Von Schill,Jack Daw,Parker Burrows,Tara 10 Thunders: Misaki,McCabe,Shenlong,Brewmaster Gremlins: Mah Tucket,Zoraida,Ulix,Somer Duel faction masters will be played as the faction they are grouped with and will get access to minion and enforcer boxes from those factions. There will be a single box of generalist upgrades (1 and 2) available for the weekend.

Wow, this has gone much much quicker than I thought. You are all so lovely. Looks very unlikely that tickets for this will end up on general sale as previous supporters want to come again. Thanks for the all the interest, will look at running this type of thing again in the future

<blush>

no they will be in faction. And there is 0% chance of anyone getting a pandora box

So I've bitten the bullet and booked the hall and will be running another slightly off the wall Malifaux event in the hall just around from my house again this year. In the the past we have had 4M, MCC and MOTH so this year we have MAGE - Mikes Annual Gaming Extravaganza I didn't run one last year as I couldn't think of a decent hook but a chance conversation has given me the idea for this years which will be BlindboxFaux. Basically when you turn up you will get a random crew box, random enforcer box and random minion box. There will then be a brief trading period and after that, what you've got will be your crew for the weekend . You have to get it built by first game Saturday morning and then it will be away you go. There will be painting prizes as well for those real tryhards Over the weekend you'll play enforcer brawls, standard 50ss games and probably a doubles as well. There will be achievements to get, objectives to obtain and all the sort of silliness that I've done at previous events. There may even be party hats. More details nearer the time but to get you started ... When - Its going to be held on the 15-16th July 2017. We will have access to the hall from around 2pm on the Friday to set up get crews etc. and I'm, sure some pickup games can be arranged as well as well as board games aplenty Where - We will be holding it in the same venue as my previous events, the hall just around the corner from my house. Postcode is NR15 2LD if you want to see how far into the wilds of Norfolk you will have to venture. Where can I stay - There is a B&B 200 yards from the village hall that has 9 rooms (1 Single, 4 Doubles, 4 Twins) Prices start at £25 a night. You are also welcome to camp in my garden if you have all the relevant equipment - this is always a good laugh. Despite being in Norfolk the B&B has a website at http://www.southnorf...esthouse.co.uk/ Camping really adds to the atmosphere of the event so its your thing please do. How many players - This is going to be a very different type of event, and as you all get to walk away with a crew I'm going to have to restrict the numbers to an absolute maximum of 28. How do I get a ticket - Tickets will cost the princely sum of £20 and will be on sale soon. I will be operating a priority system that lets folks who have supported these events in the past get first dibs Right thats enough I think for an initial post. If you've been to one of our events before you know what to expect, if not then be prepared for a Malifaux experience like no other. Make sure you put it in your diary

You can just give my tickets away, pay it forward and all that so have a great time @Morgs

Its corner IIRC

Yep crew faux is fantastic

Whilst i dont mind the Rd4 game it certainly wouldnt be my first choice and its likely to seriously impact attendance

I'll be Guild

Due to Lees emergency I wont be making it either, sorry

I can't make this now so feel free to just pass on my tickets to others

Think I am going to be fixed crewing this, to much thinking involved if I have to learn new schemes as well as pick different crews

Not released yet Luke

Snuck a couple of episodes out just before Christmas. In Episode 5 we have a good long chat with @Aaron about the new Errata, his reasoning behind it etc. as well as touching on GG2017 and then in Episode 6 we have a bit of a catch up on what we have been doing (UK Nationals etc.) and then get into dissecting the errata and generally talking about how we feel about the changes. You can find the episodes at http://www.mf2e.com/archive as well as on iTunes, just search for Malifools Going to try and get back to something approaching a regular schedule next year, but have said that before and failed miserably

Assume we are using the Errata?

then just print them out from the PDF and sleeve them up. Use a playing card between the two faces to give it rigidity

Can't make this one I'm afraid, sorry

Paid for the massive
