  5. Third Edition is Coming!!

    I'm sure that person isn't the only one out there but it still seems strange to make tarot cards because of 0.2% of the customers?

    I'm sure we can find others with disabilities that Wyrd could take into account but usually a company looks at the majority of their customers. But I hope your friend will able to play with the new cards, I can't stop it anyway, I just hope 3rd edition will be just as good as 2nd, for him to get excited about. ;)

    Something IS easier now: I don't have to take all the cards out of the sleeves or even out of the binder, everything becomes obsolete at the same time. Look at the bright side I suppose...

    I am not saying that is the reason why Wyrd did change the format. And of course there are even more severe disabilities which stop people from playing the game.

    All I am saying is that I think it is a good thing for people who struggled with the current text size and for me it is not that big of an impact to really get upset about. Just trying to get some positivity through. :)

    I know a guy like that... ONE guy. He puts on glasses when he has to read something, and he made larger cards for schemes etc. So it seems a solution that very few people actually need.

    Maybe I did not make it clear: For my buddy there is no way putting on glasses to increase his eyesight. For me this is a big step to inclusion and I fully support it even if it means I have to get new sleeves and a way to get the stuff sorted.

    So as a Henchman with about 400 models and all the stat cards in sleeves and in a binder with colored pages to match the factions, I just get a big old slap in the face with these new cards.

    400+ sleeves down the drain along with my custom made colored pages for those stat cards.

    But hey, 3-4 people with poor eye sight like the bigger cards... great, can they buy me 400 new sleeves and new binders? 

    I understand your displease as I am one of those sleeve'n binder guys as well but: There are people who suffer from bad eyesight and one guy in my community actually is not able to play the game because the text is so small. The app helped but he - as well as me - prefers to play with phsyical cards. Sorry to say but I completetly disagree with your view.

  10. German Nationals 2018 - 22nd/23rd September

    in Europe

    Posted

    Ladies and gentlemen, mesdames et messieurs,

     

    we would like to officially announce the German Masters 2018. It will be held at the clubhome of AdArma in Hassloch, Germany.

     

    We aim to continue the great work of our fellow Henchman WarmasterOJB who organized this tournament in the past (thanks a lot for that!) and we strife to hold this legacy up high.

    Wyrd has also announced to support this event! Also thanks for that!

     

    Hard facts first:

     

    • When? 22nd/23rd of September

    • Where? Clubhome of AdArma in Hassloch, Germany

    • How many? At the moment we are planning to host 40+ players

    • How much? 30,- € per player (might change a bit when we figured some things out)

    • Why? Do you really need a reason besides playing Malifaux for a whole weekend? Alright, we got you covered with several goodies and the chance to become the German Master!

     

    At the moment we are taking care of collecting enough terrain to avoid empty tables or unpainted houses and fences. We will provide gamingmats with all the required lines for various deployment zones and so on printed on them. We have some beautiful terrain already finished for you (pictures coming soon) and are working on building some more for this special event. Another friendly club, the Tabletop Verein Worms will be supporting us in that case.

     

     

    Rules:

     

    • Gaining Grounds 2018

    • 50 Soulstones per crew

    • fixed faction, free masters

    • no painting requirements, models need to be fully assembled

    • terrain will be placed by the TO's and may only be changed by them if it is required

     

     

    Entry fee: 30,- € (does not include catering)

    Accomodation:

    There are some hotels and hostels nearby. You can find some options here: https://www.booking.com/searchresults.de.html?aid=301584;label=hassloch-n6XfltDDBar2Z053LU29xwS213444604939%3Apl%3Ata%3Ap12%3Ap2260.000%3Aac%3Aap1t1%3Aneg%3Afi%3Atikwd-6520964863%3Alp9068193%3Ali%3Adec%3Adm;sid=a8534d62f4d9707c890d96de8090a5b2;city=-1787423;hyb_red=1;keep_landing=1;redirected=1;redirected_from_city=1;source=city;src=city&gclid=EAIaIQobChMItrm845Tb2gIVwtmyCh3AgA2gEAAYASAAEgIBCvD_BwE&

     

    There is also the opportunity to sleep directly at the venue (you have to bring a sleeping bag or something like that – bad boys sleep on the floor!)

    We will inform you about further options.

     

     

    Prizepool:

    Of course we want to crown the German Master but also we appreciate every other player as much. That is why we have a special goody-bag prepared for you! What's in it? Of course this will be a surprise. I can tell only so much that we have an extra team of people currently working on this stuff.

    We also want to test your knowledge about Malifaux with a little quiz and honor the best painted crew as well. So basically we are throwing prizes at you all the time. Some of them will also be raffled and maybe there is a wooden spoon involved.

     

     

    Foods and drinks:

    We are currently in the process of communicating with local restaurants and check other options. There will be food, rest assured!

    Beverages can be bought directly at the tournament for a small price. There is also a supermarket a few minutes away.

     

     

    The last thing to say is that we hope you are as excited as we are! We want to give something back and grow the community. Please tell your friends, uncles and guinea pigs about this event and make it happen! We hope this will be an unforgetable event for all of us and we have a great weekend together.

     

    If you have any questions please do not hesitate asking them! Further informations will be posted here.

     

    - Chris (@waffls) and Marc (@Grotnob)

     

    PS: Updates will be posted in this thread!

    PPS: Regristration via T3 coming soon!

    Hey there!

    I just wanted to share my painting progression with you guys. I am happy for any critique you might have as I always try to improve as a painter - though I won't go back and work on old paintjobs again most likely as I am preparing for the UK Nationals and need to paint a lot of stuff till then. Here is what I did this year so far:

  25. [Germany] Shifting Loyalties Campaign - Darmstadt/Bad Kreuznach

    in Europe

    Posted

    Hey there!

    We will be starting two new campaigns of Shifting Loyalties soon. Since the hobbyplaces are seperated a bit too far from each other we need to do separate campaigns.

    The first one is located in Bad Kreuznach on Wednesday night from 19.30 to 00.30

    The second one takes place in Darmstadt every Thursday from 17.00 to 22.00

    We plan a start in the mid of February with a 35SS henchman-led crew. There will be 6 campaignweeks, each taking 4 weeks so you have plenty of time playing your heart out.

    If you are interested just shoot me a message and I will give out additional infos.

     

    Best regards,
    Chris
