See ya Thursday!

Adepticon going to a bigger place probably wont happen soon. The Westin is tight but its basically all they got in the area. Its basically a big step up financially to get to a bigger place without relocating the con significantly.

As far as all night play. We had one valiant and crazy person to run all night the first year we did it but its really a shitty shift for most people. In theory all night is great, except that you end up sitting around for hours in the middle bored out of your mind.

Ok, that's what I figured. I'll see what my schedule is for next year, so put me as a maybe on the volunteer list. If aCon moves to a larger location and, we get a bigger room, it will be a great opportunity to get those up late in for a demo.

Last years gaslight/achievement league ran through the night until shortly before the first event in the morning. I know they had the achievement sheets this year too but, it seemed to be whatever you could get done during the day.

I am curious as to why there was no gaslight play this year? Staffing issue?

It was great seeing Wyrds booth at Gencon last year and, certainly a missed presence in the Adepticon vendor hall.

But a glorious death, haha!

I was soooo hoping to play on that board so I could put Niño up there.

And speaking of the great Malifaux terrain, here is a walk through video from a really good terrain builder:

It was completely my choice to build that board over painting a newer crew and, I really enjoyed it. I heard several complaints about terrain as well and, just wanted to help you inform everyone about the amount of work that goes into filling a room with the amount of terrain that Malifaux requires. I'm just glad I don't have to build any for a Infinity room!

I agree whole heartedly with your thoughts on terrain. While I know my terraclips boards might not have been ideal for all of the unique scenarios, I brought them with the intent of providing a unique gaming experience. Also, terrain building can be time consuming and, easily overlooked. I know I personally chose building the dead forest board over painting my new Latigo crew, leaving me with no models I could comfortably enter into the painting contest. Just wait until we have twice as much space to fill with terrain next year(unofficial), haha! Time to start building now!

I know for sure that there are scheduled events, and I am pretty sure they had some space in the open gaming area last year for pick up games.

As Joe(rancor709) mentioned, I will be bringing two terraclips boards, and one forest board(currently being built)to help fill the tables. I am really looking forward to this weekend!

I thought they were prohibited before at tournaments because you could count to squares, which was basically pre-measuring

Seeing as everything is premeasured now, will terraclip board be allowed at adepticon?

Anyone that is touched by a 50mm base from the original model you hit must do a Df 13 duel or receive slow, but they do not suffer damage.

Niño and Francisco. I really don't understand why a sniper would be standing on one leg, and Francisco needs his swords drawn in some manner.

I use the peacekeeper in a lot of my guild crews. He can move fast, use arachnid to ignore most terrain, use his harpoon to yank models around and I love using any model that has paired weapons. I should note that I don't even own Hoffman.

The warden is starting to become a regular in my crews as well. The executioner and austringer are used regularly as well.

The only problem I find with models like the peacekeeper, warden and pale rider are that they become big targets and usually won't last too long making most people questions spend that many stones on them(aside from the warden only being 5 ss).

With Lucas's "in the thick of it" buff I am reading it as once your engaged with more than one enemy in melee you gain +1 Df for every model engaged with you. The discrepancy with the player in last nights games was that he thought the first enemy engaged with Lucas does not count towards the + Df. For those who do not have his card I will write out the wording: This model receives +1 Df per enemy model engaged with it after the first, up to +3 Df.

The problem I run into is not so much the models worth, but how big a target they are. A lot of my good mid ss choices always draw attention and usually get taken out quickly making them seem like they are not worth the ss cost. For example, the warden(5 ss) has a somewhat easy to get off paralyze trigger, thus making him a big target and taken out quickly.

That looks really good, what colours did you paint the horse's flesh?

Looking nice, love the purple. Would love to see his face though, it's obscured in both pics.

Amazing work!

I use reaper paints and secrete weapon washes, both come in dropper bottles. Reaper has a large selection of metallic paint and secrete weapons armor wash goes great with all of them. Feel free to ask me any questions about either brand.
