  3. I'll be starting a short Malifaux league on Sept. 19th 

    Most of the content will be newly written by one of our Players who's idea this was. It will be sort of a Story League.
    But we will be using standard schemes, and some story ones.

    It's going to be craziness. And we might be able to play 2 games a night.

    League Starts - Sept. 19

    League Ends - Oct. 10 (Tentative)
    Games will start around 5:30-6

  8. Board Game Barrister - Bayshore Town Center

    Feb. 20th Sat.
     
    Check in 10am
    Start 10:30am
     
    Fee - TBA
     
    Formats
     
    Henchman Hardcore
     
    Restrictions
    Henchman Hardcore is different from standard Malifaux in the following ways:
    • All Crews must be led by a Henchman, not a Master.
    • The game size is 20 Soulstones.
    • All Crews must contain exactly 4 models, no more, no less.
    • Upgrades may be purchased, as allowed by the standard rules of Malifaux.
    • The size of a Crew’s Soulstone Pool is limited by the Cache of the Henchman leading it; any Soulstones above this amount are discarded.
    • Any Actions, Abilities, or Triggers which summon models are considered to be “blank” (they may not be used and have no effect on the game, as if they were not printed on the model).
    • Only one Scheme will be available.
    • The same Crew must be used in each round of the event.
     
    All rounds use the following set up:
     
    • Deployment: Close.
    • Strategy: Hardcore Turf War. This Strategy uses the Turf War rules (Core Rulebook pg. 66) with the exception that VP may be scored on the first Turn.
    • Scheme Pool: Assassinate (Core Rulebook pg. 68). This is the only Scheme available and it must always be taken.
     
     
    Rounds are 30min. (dependent on skill level of the majority of players, could be 60min. to give newer players more time)
     
     
     
    Enforcer Brawl
     
    Each player selects one Enforcer and attaches up to one Upgrade to it. The Upgrade must be something the Enforcer could have attached at the start of a normal game considering its Faction(s). (Leader only Upgrades may not be selected, for example.) The Enforcer must be one with a Cost which may be hired (no Coryphee Duets, for example).
     
    The game is played on a standard table. Each player flips a card to determine deployment order; the player who flips highest deploys first, followed by the second highest, etc., until each player has deployed their Enforcer. If two or more players are tied, they reflip amongst themselves. Models may be deployed anywhere on the table which is more than 6” from another model.
     
    Play proceeds for 6 rounds. Each round, all players flip for initiative; the player who flips highest must go first, followed by the second highest, etc. until all players have gone. If two or more players are tied, they reflip amongst themselves. If a model receives Reactivate, it receives a second Activation at initiative -1 (if multiple models Reactivate, they flip to determine which goes first).
     
    Before the game, assign a suit (Rams, Tomes, etc.) to each table edge. On a player’s initiative, if they have no models in play or buried, they must flip a card which may not be cheated (reflipping jokers). The player places a new copy of the model they chose at the start of the Brawl (including its Upgrade) within 6” of the board edge corresponding to the suit flipped and then proceeds with their Activation as normal.
     
     
    Restrictions
    The Enforcer Brawl has the following restrictions/rules:
     
    • Players have a hand of 4 cards, instead of the usual 6.
    • Any Actions, Abilities, or Triggers which summon models are considered to be “blank” (they may not be used and have no effect on the game, as if they were not printed on the model).
    • When a model is buried, it may choose to be sacrificed instead (in which case it counts as sacrificed by the model which forced it to become buried).
     
     
    Scoring
    At the end of 6 Turns, the player with the highest Victory Points wins. Players score VP in the following manner:
     
    • 3 VP for each opposing model killed or sacrificed. A player scores 4 VP instead if the model they killed or sacrificed had a higher Soulstone Cost (including the cost of Upgrades) than their model did.
    • 1 VP for dealing 1 or more damage to an undamaged enemy (this may stack with killing the model). A player scores 2 VP instead if the model they damaged had a higher Soulstone Cost (including the cost of Upgrades) than their model did.
    • -3 VP for each time the player’s model was killed or sacrificed.
    • Groups are encouraged to come up with their own variant methods of scoring by including things like hidden Schemes, bonus points for killing certain models, area control, rules for attaching more Upgrades, etc. These are the base rules, have fun with them!

  11. Can Hamelin hire all 3 of the Stolen at the start of a game?

    Just wanted clarification. There's wording on both Ophelia's young lecroix and the mechanical doves... But rare 3 is not consistent trait with all...

    We just had some discussion on this in our group. They're rare 3, so why wouldn't you be able to hire all three from the start.

  12. I will be in the Board game Barrister room running demos of Malifaux this Sat. Oct 25

  14. Hi,

     

     

    I apologize if this has been gone over before…. but I just wanted some clarification before Adepticon.

     

     

    Summoning Spiders.

     

    So you have to say how many spiders you're trying to summon before you flip, does that lock you into that if you flip higher, or say the red joker?

     

    Say you have a 8 in your hand, You spend a stone for the extra tome, you say you're going to summon 2 spiders, knowing you can cheat to at least that 8. What if you flip the red joker, can you bring in 3 then? 

    I don't think it works that way, but I could be wrong.

     

    Thanks for any help….

     

     

    Side note. Been playing against another summon master, Kirai. holy crap, she can summon a 9pt model (hanged) into play. that is craziness.

    I know you need a 13 to do it, but still.
