Forestreverie

Hi, I had a Parker and posted the reverse post on Twitter a few weeks ago, unfortunately sold the Parker box as had nobody offering up a Nellie box! i do however have a large outcasts collection and would be willing to trade a greater amount of those than the price of Nellie if you are interested? everything is assembled and much of it is painted to a basic to decent standard, though would be happy to strip for you if required. I I have a nicely painted nightmare Tara crew and a part painted Hannah. I I also have metal viktorias crew and avatar. Aaron

Nooooooooo!

Payment sent for Aaron Bailey & Ben Sime

Not gonna lie, you'll probably get it! There's no real criteria; Last event we just gave it to the person with the most northern accent Aaron

I believe myself, Mr. Ben Sime and Master Jan Proudley will be coming to this too :! Aaron Bailey

I find this interesting... Aaron

Ben and I were overwhelmed with the success of the event and the positive feedback, we were so pleased to hear so many of you saying you'd be back for our next event. I would also like to apologize as I know a lot of you had an extremely long drive home, the reason for this was that Bournemouth is a tourist town, and both the Bournemouth Air show and Dorset Steam Fair were going on this weekend and people who had come down from all over were all trying to leave on the Sunday night. we will be careful to take these things into consideration when booking our next event. I hope this doesnt put anybody off attending events we run in future, I know we are far enough away from most of you already without extreme traffic adding to your travelling times! i would also like to say a quick, but sincere thankyou to Luke and Martin who helped with marking tables, Ben Crowe for helping set up terrain, Austin Capewell for designing our logo and best in race certificates (which I was super happy with!), Matt Spooner for printing our rulespacks (loved the little note), and everybody who helped with the tidying away of the tables and terrain. Mike Asquith without even being asked sorted us some sponsorship from a local brewery and a lovely glass with the event logo for the most sporting opponent award. We were sponsored by Simple Miniature Games, Counter Attack and Element games, you can thank them for your awesome prizes. Most of all though i would like to thank Ben Sime himself. he put in more effort than anybody else to ensure this event was the best it could be and when it came to the day he even kindly stood down to ensure the numbers were even. Also he bought everybody sweeties. If I have missed anybody I apologize and thankyou equally sincerely. Im sure Ben will be writing a more in depth report of the day with pictures on his blog over at Malibros.blogspot.co.uk Thanks to everybody again, and hopefully we see you all again! Aaron

We Will be at the venue from 6pm setting up and getting some casual games / boardgames going and if people want to we can go to a local pub or restaurant for some dinner and drinks. Were going to have some more solid plans for it but a lot of the people travelling down decided to come on the Sunday morning instead so we didn't end up booking a table anywhere in the end. Not long now... Aaron

What Ben's said is pretty accurate, maybe even slightly generous with the times

And recieved. You're in!

We have had a second look at the hall and think if there's demand we could boost up to them at sweet spot of 28 players for the rankings whores amongst you! Does that get anybody else interested? Aaron

Sure. Would be great to have you down

Yes to both

Haha! My bad!

Brilliant, thanks!

Awesome. Will be so cool to see you guys coming down to us! Have you sorted any accommodation? There are a million b&bs on the next road!

So; ladies and gentlemen! Tickets will be on sale this very Sunday (15/6) at midday. £10 per person, paid via paypal to aaronbailey17@hotmail.com There will initially be 20 places available, we are looking to do a trial set up soon to see if we can squeeze any more tables in, if it is indeed possible, the top reserves will be added to the entrants list. If anybody is interested in coming down for the Saturday night it will be a good laugh and we'd love to see you. We will be hanging out at the venue, but of socialising, some board games, you'll be free to play practice games on the tables, then off to t'pub to continue the festivities with dinner and a few drinks. Spoiler; We have also sourced some lovely limited edition boxed sets to be won! Courtesy of simple miniature games. Cheers for stopping by! Aaron

Yeah of course, as long as a team will have you!

Teams wise I think will be max 4 players, will likely be fixed faction, so when I ask you to declare your factions you *may* declare a team name at that time. Team with highest Vps total over the weekend will receive a prize. Teams will not be taken into account regarding pairings after round one. The event will be ranked as well, unless anybody has any strong objections? Aaron

Hello All, Feels like about time I ran a second Malifaux event down south, so here it is. We have finally pinned down a date and venue. Sunday 31st August (not quite septemberfaux!) Tuckton Social Club Tuckton Road Bournemouth Dorset England BH6 3AA There will definitely be trophies for; 1st place 2nd place 3rd place Best painted (players choice) Best painted (judges choice) Other details we are considering include; More prizes, for example Cult of September - best team performance. (Note that registering as part of a team is not compulsory, it is still a singles event. The team trophy will be an additional prize awarded to the team with the highest average VP difference. A team can be 2 or more players) Saturday night gaming (the hall has been booked for setup saturday night) Keep checking back, this thread should be updated regularly as we aquire more details and settle on more of the finer issues. Please post up if you're interested, we are currently looking at a 28 player event. Thanks for reading, hope to see you there, Aaron Entrants list; 1. Mike Marshal - 2.

September's Curse Sunday August 31st with festivities Saturday 30th Tuckton Social Club Tuckton Road Bournemouth Dorset England BH6 3AA Plenty of parking around the back. Saturday Festivities: We have the event hall from 6 - 10, this time will be used by the organisers to set up the venue. However as 4 hours is a lot of time, all entrants to the event will be able to come to the venue in the evening, where will be playing board games, hanging out and maybe even some Malifaux whilst we all head to the pub afterwards. We'd love to see people travel down the night before to join in these festivities, plus who likes mornings anyway? Sunday Main Event: 9:00 - 9:15 Venue opens and sign ups. 9:15 - 11:00 Round 1 11:00 - 12:45 Round 2 Lunch Break 13:30 - 15:15 Round 3 15:15 - 17:00 Round 4 17:00 - 17:30 Award Ceremony We will also quite likely be going for a meal the Sunday night for anyone who can stick around. Games will be 40 soulstones, fixed faction and fully painted. The event itself will be using Gaining Grounds 2014 with a few exceptions: Conversions and Proxies. Proxy models will absolutely be allowed, but please ask on the forum or email aaronbailey17@hotmail.com about anything you are unsure about. Also if possible please bring the original Wyrd version of the model just in case. If there are any models you are worried you will not have the originals for, or maybe not ready in time please drop Aaron an email as we will endeavour to help you out where we can. Schemes and Strategies. Though the event is in August, using the spirit of September we will be running the Gaining Grounds Strategies of the Septemeber - December period with the exception that Round 4's strategy will not be a repeat. For those without Gaining Grounds at hand this equates to: Round 1 - Stake a Claim/ Steak a Clam - Standard Deployment Round 2 - Turf War - Close Deployment Round 3 - Reconnoiter - Flank Deployment Round 4 - Reckoning - Corner Deployment Scheme pools for the event will be flipped on the Saturday night. Prizes Awards will be given to the following: 1st Place 2nd Place 3rd Place Last Place Best Painted - Judge's Choice Best Painted - Player's Choice To qualify for best painting, players who want to enter will need to leave out and display 30+ soulstones worth of models from the faction they are playing (including anything out of faction legally hired). These will need to be displayed at Lunch time, this is where the Judges and players will get their chance (and all should do so) to vote for who they deem the best. Also, The "Ben Halford Award of Excellence" which will be awarded for excellence (as determined by Aaron Bailey). and Best Team. To confirm, this event is a SINGLE PLAYER event, however, we will if enough teams enter, be doing a prize for the team with the best VP differential at the end of the day. Teams must consist of 2-4 players and we hope to see some clubs/gaming groups showing their colours. Also during the day there will be spot prizes given out, the way in which to win these will be revealed on the day, but please be aware these will be up for grabs for anyone playing at the event. Player Responsibility: The TOs want this event to be a fun, casual, nice experience. The event is ranked, but people should act with respect for eachother. It goes without saying that anyone causing distress at this event may be kicked out. Respect should be had for eachother, the TOs, the terrain and the venue itself. Eating and drinking is allowed on the site but it is each persons responsibility to be consdierate and tidy up after themselves, rubbish bags and/or bins will be provided and anyone seen not using them may be ejected. However, we are adults (kind of) so let's hope none of this stuff will need to happen. Lastly it is also each players resposibility to make sure they have everything they need for the event, to confirm this includes: Your Crew – Fully Painted Official M2E stat and upgrade cards Tape Measure Fate Deck Rulebook Scheme/Corpse/Scrap and any other relevant counters for your crew.

Sign me up

Yeah sure I'd be up for this. Will try and rope in some of my local guys too Aaron

Hey dude, I'm Aaron, I'm a henchman based in Bournemouth. I did run a tournament lay year in Christchurch, and plan to again this august (although likely in Bournemouth this time). I know Simple miniatures, should give you a heads up that they are as you said a distributor first and foremost, not a gaming store per se. They do have a little shop front but it's not like they have gaming tables set up it anything. (We do run a local club on Thursday nights in Christchurch tho) If you fancy any games or a gaming weekend or anything just get in touch and I'm sure I could set something up Aaron
