Shameless Bump (Not as shameless as R.Kelley's grinding but...)

Will enter negotiations with SWMBO!

Isn't this all just a subtle ruse to give Conrad a badge on the rankings site As someone who I think most people would agree plays for lols rather than (competitive) goals.... And has only had 1 'bad' game in the tournaments I have been lucky enough to attend... I hate soft scoring as in judging my opponent. But incentivising/reminding people what helps make your opponent feel at ease and allows them to have fun.... all in. This is why at Tanefaux events so far (including our upcoming Double or Bust:II plug! plug! plug!) we have lets say a rather light hearted approach to tie breakers. We like people to play hard whilst being gentlefolk. Queensbury rules as you will. Saying that, this is probably one of the few examples of where 'group think' is working already. And if some one is really deaf, I would hate to see anything which would undermine TO discretion. Its there event and they should choose to deal with it in any way they choose.

I can confirm my name is Matt Cole. Ben is correct

Sweet - hope to pay on Wednesday as its pay day

Sweet - will pay on Wednesday as its pay day (if that's ok?). I can also do curry as well

Hi all, are there still spaces for the tournament itself? not sure about curry unfortunately as I need to get home potentially for the event at wayland the next day lol.

Hiya - are tickets still available for this?

Hiya, are there tickets still left for this? I *may* be able to make the pilgrimage up to Sanctuary if so

I am already trying to find cheap Marinus Calgar models on eBay... what am I like?

Huzzah! Thanks to you both for signing up so quickly, much appreciated! I hope the team names are to your liking as well

Hi All! Once again we are holding our doubles tournament here in lovely Leytonstone, because in all honesty we all had such a good time previously we wanted to do it again! As anyone who attend last year will tell you, this is as relaxed as a tournament as you are likely to get, and because (if you have never plaid doubles) the combo's you and your opponents can unlock can be frankly outrageous, but also quite hilarious. Please find attached the Rules Pack for the event. We would really like to highlight the tiebreaker points system as there is quite a bit you can do before you even attend the event (ooooohhhhhhhhh!!!). We have spaces for 12 teams of two players and if you would like a ticket, please send £30 for your team to twgc_treasurer@tanelornwgc.org – alongside the other details listed in the pack. First come, first served! Of course if you have any queries then feel free to post here or to message me on the forums. All of us at Tanelorn look forward to seeing you then! Teams PAID (once space is gone, it’s gone… till there is a drop out and we pull your team from the reserve list… oh you know what I mean) 1. We will defo win more than Palace - John Burgess and Andy Bradshaw 2. Something to do with BendyBoards.co.uk - Mike Marshall and Lee Batterick 3. Ancestral Vengeance - Connor and Jen 4. Darksphere team Alpha - Bradley and Francois 5. Dumb Cluck - Panzer and Eless 6. Old and Cranky - Conrad EJ Gonsalves and The Gedginator 7. 8. 9. 10. 11. 12. Teams interested but not as of yet paid/Reserve list if we are sold out 1. Mike and Phil 2. Like this 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10. 11. 12. Tanefaux - Double or Bust II - Calgar's Revenge.pdf

Yep, I agree with Solkan. I guess Sebastian is being run as support piece for the Emissary right...

Yep - which is why I have always scratched my head at the lack of Hans about but....

Yep as Myyra said. Very good as a ranged alpha strike and once people have it, it makes them spread out or try and go in for the kill and I then use Machine Puppet to clear them out. I do also try to include hunters as and when, and 'sometimes' watchers. Really depends on SnS, but my template is usually the above. If you are looking for a really cheap df boost for power loop and another scheme runner.... don't forget the Brutal Effigy is a construct as well. Its also a bit tougher than a watcher. Ok you are probably not going to get too much use out of 'fear not the sword' but...

Metal Gamin is a must for me - it brings so much card efficiency for Hoffman, it allows me to spend stones on suits instead when needed. First thing on my list, possibly only after the mobile toolkit. The rest of what I take with Hoff varies quite a bit. Don't really use Joss, Hank or R.Golem, as I lllooooovvvveee soulstone miners to operate outside the hoff ball. Saying that, Ryle and the B.Emmisary have been real staples. Ryle with double positive flips, Sh 6 and having the double rams for a turn is pure poetry in motion against other ball crews...

I've run Executioner mostly with McCabe, and little bit with Lucius for 'What lackeys are for' shenanigans. Must say 'Exey' hits a niche against people who are dependent on defensive triggers (riders, gremlins, Collette) so he usually is number one on my crew list when facing Arcanists and Gremilins. Never thought about taking Francisco with him through.... Quite a nice double act but I guess most things are when Franc is part of the partnership

Personally her denial aspects are what I love. Walls, disrupting magic and then badge of office can really help her defensibe game. Never really explored counter spell, mainly as I would need another model which can take so e damage to hold disrupt magic. One of the main things I want to do this year is play her in the hunter theme to really help get my head around denying vps whilst still scoring more than them, mainly due to ahunch that orderly's unlock quite a bit of scheming for her

Join us on the dark side #pandita personally I always reach for Hoffman. Most of his game plan is to camp on their half of the board and with soulstone miners to hand, they can come on end of turn one and place straight away turn 2 majority of the time with good placing. He can then also set up two watchers to then ping off the hoffball as well. If you do ok, only one of these is going to get taken out so that's 3 stakes on turn two, which should at least make it hard for oppo to score till turn 3 at the very least. I then would think of taking ryle and/or emissary to then gun down everyone else welcome to the guild mr crystal palace!

We hope you all enjoyed yourselves and that it was a bit different for a ranked event. Some of this I simply forgot to say (none flipped schemes), stuff we hinted but were not as explicit as we could be (soft tie-breaks, relaxed timings) but there was quite a bit of stuff which we didn't think of so glad for all feedback (thanks Ben!). All good stuff so next time we have a singles event we can be as clear as we can about it all. Again, thanks for coming along, and hope to see as many of you as we can when we next have an event.

Thank Razhem, great to meet you face to face!

Thanks for letting us know - did message yesterday but not sure if you got it? Glad to hear you are ok.

Hiya, main point is that we are 30 seconds from Leytonstone tube station. Hence if you are lucky enough to get into Liverpool Street it's a few stops but even if you are coming into kings cross on a Saturday morning you are looking at around half an hour to get to Leytonstone. So yes you can blame me if you are late

If you could send £15 to the email account in the rules pack via PayPal, the space is yours

There is indeed - be good to meet you in the flesh dude :)
