  1. Come one, come all, to the place where Steampunk Lives and Breathes in all it's Glory! A better place to experience Malifaux first-hand most assuredly does not exist! I will be in the Coldwater Canadiana Heritage Museum with my Newly created Western town of White Sands to provide demos and full-games alike for anyone in the area. Saturday August 11, 9:00-5:30 Coldwater Canadiana Heritage Museum; 1474 Woodrow Rd, Coldwater, ON L0K 1E0 See you there! https://www.steampunkfestivalcoldwater.com/
  2. Hear-yea, hear-yea! Malifaux’s newest town is currently under construction and we need you, valiant Wyrdo, to become its first inhabitants! Picturesque White Sands boast breathtaking sunsets, beach-worthy sandstorms, glistening mirages that may (or may not) resemble actual water and of course, not a single bloodthirsty Neverborn in sight!* Do you have what it takes to reap the rewards this bountiful land has to offer and be one of the first citizens of White Sands? If so, join us at Jacks on Queen is Elmvale, Ontario on Saturday July 21 starting at 2:00, and get ready to take an uneventful and completely relaxing** walk down the newly swept streets! This event will also coincide with Elmvale Ontario's second annual Sci Fi and Fantasy Street Party, so there is much more to see and do should you come our way! Jack's on Queen 18 Queen Street West, Elmvale ON (30 minutes north of Barrie, ON via Hwy 27 705-515-5225 or info@jacksonqueen.com ... ... ... * The new Mayor of White Sands places no guarantee on whether or not Nevwrborn are in the actual vicinity. This is based solely on the testimonial of the previous mayor, who disappeared in a suspicious pool of blood only 14 hours after being sworn in to office... ** The definition of the term ‘relaxing’ is currently up for hot debate. And by hot debate, I mean pistols at dawn...
  3. I'm sure this is a topic that has cropped up before, but I always find it interesting to discover how/why players enjoy a particular game. I was first drawn to Malifaux because of how unabashedly gorgeous the miniatures and game aesthetics are, and it was later on that I discovered that I actually enjoyed playing the game. That being said, I find I still choose crews/Masters based solely on how they look or the theme I can create with them; as for me, the enjoyment of painting/creating still outweighs whether or not I do well in any games/tournaments. As I start planning my next crew of Ten Thunders, this is going to be more evident then ever. I am so excited to paint the fabrics of many of the models that I am paying almost no attention to the actual stats of the cards! So I'm curious, how do you choose your next Master/Faction/Crew? Do you also go for the looks of it first, or do you care more about playability? Do you aim to just crush your opponents, or do you try to find a crew you think would be most fun/interesting to play? Or a combination of all? Because Malifaux itself has so many different directions you can go for, I'm very interested to see how people choose to immerse themselves in this universe!
  4. Just a reminder to come join us in beautiful Elmvale Ontario, just north of the GTA! It's shaping up to be a stellar weekend, so if you're in the Toronto area, why not take a day trip up north? If you want to play but don't have a crew (or know someone like that!) I'll have two spare crews on standby. See you there!
  5. EDIT: Apparently I can't proof-read and missed adding a date and time! Event to be run May 12, 2018 12:00-5:00p.m. Come join us in beautiful Elmvale, Ontario (Canada) for another Henchman Hardcore tournament! $20.00 a head and all participants leave with a model of their choice (1st place has 1st pick, 2nd place has 2nd, etc.). All matching and scoring is done via Best Coast Parings; click here if you are unfamiliar with how Henchman Hardcore differs from standard play. Tournament held: Jacks on Queen 18 Queen Street West, Elmvale Ontario 705-515-5225 info@jacksonqueen.com
  6. Bumping this up again - I'll be at the store this evening for anyone who wants to brave the rain!
  7. Just an update to say I’ll be at the shop this upcoming Wednesday (March 21) for some demo games!
  8. These are some of the ones I'm most proud of...The Dreamer even has a little rocking horse I made out of plasticard and the little DayDream has his own quilted blanket
  9. Come one, come all, to a most excellent day of tabletop skirmish wargaming! Join us in beautiful Elmvale, Ontario (just 1 1/2 hours north of Toronto) for a day dedicated to all things skirmish. Malifaux will be one of the showcased games (with not one, but TWO Henchmen present and accounted for!) among several others! We are also hosting a painting competition, and will have special guest Ash Barker from YouTube's Guerrilla Miniature Games. We look forward to seeing you all there!
  10. THANK YOU! I am really happy with how it turned out; all the large fabric pieces were just screaming for some detail; I may have gone overboard with the stripes hehe.
  11. Here is the first crew I ever completed; Parker Barrows and his Gang. Initially I didn’t care for the Wild West theme of Malifaux, now its become my favourite. And who better to lead me down my path to Scripts than a bunch of honest-to-goodness outlaws!
  12. Here’s the second crew I completed, and the one that made me fall in love with Malifaux in the first place. Though if I’m honest it’s not my favourite crew to play, it’ll always have a special place in my heart as they’re just so dang cool. That or The Dreamer has some sort of hold over me... I took the idea that he’s some sort of corporeal being as the inspiration, and instead of painting him in Caucasian flesh tones opted for more of a blue-grey colour scheme, using the other creatures to bring vibrant colour back to the crew.
  13. Edit to confirm this is still going on for the month of August: Hello! Now that I officially have my 'Henchman' status I'll be formally offering Wyrd Wednesdays at my LGS. Most weeks will be available for demos of the Malifaux, but we will also be running select evenings as Through the Breach Campaigns. The specifics for those nights will be updated as needed. I'll be ready for business starting at 6:30, until the store closes at 9:30. Players are encouraged to bring their own teams, or can play with one of mine. For anyone brand-new to the game we can run some of the scenarios from the Starter Set. Jacks on Queen is located in beautiful Elmvale Ontario, just 1 1/2 hours north of Toronto near the shores of Georgian Bay. Come check us out and help a new Henchman earn her stripes!

  14. @Brian Gresham Hello! It looks like I'm having the same issue here... was accepted as a Henchman back on February 22 but still cannot view that part of the forums or the online store etc. Have already had two demos that I haven't been able to record and am anxious to begin! Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thank you!
  15. Though we had multiple games running for our inaugural 'Melee Madness' (a celebration for all things Tabletop Skirmish) here are some of the highlights of the Malifaux side of things!

    Melee Madness 2018

    This past month we hosted our inaugural Melee Madness (a celebration of all things Tabletop Skirmish) and though we had multiple games represented, here are some photos of the two Malifaux tables. I wish I had taken more photos but as I was the resident 'go-for' that day I missed a lot of great opportunities Nonetheless we had a total of 14 participants playing in Malifaux alone! Great fun was had and I look forward to making it even bigger and better next year!
