Could have commented on entries. Would have done the job just as well. ☺️

I agree with a lot of things that have been written here, good stuff!

1. Less complex profiles. One person I introduced the game to said after a couple of games that it was like playing a whole D&D party by himself and then left for another game.
And I think he was quite spot on.

2. Less triggers. One person I introduced the game to said after a couple of games that this game had way too many gotchas for him to be interested, so he left for another game.
And I think he was quite spot on.

3. Remove the dual faction stuff. Its a mess.

I also think with these changes the game would be easier for the developers to balance, and would give some more models reasons to exist.
Also this would make for faster game play.

1. Then that player has that other game he can play and not feel overwhelmed. Can we have a bit more text heavy game among all others?

You start out light. Henchman hardcore. Like 8 cards to read and keep track of. 8

2. That is entirely up to you. You could either be a teacher saying "well, if you do this, then I can do that, so it would be more prudent to do this and that". That's how people learn.

Yes, there is a ton of information in this game, I don't see how people expect to know and understand everything after a couple of games.

Both your examples include new people "after a couple of games". They don't sound really persistent. I feel like everyone is asking for instant gratification these days.

3. Not really an argument.

Sorry, but why?

There are plenty of other games with simpler rules that can satisfy your needs for simplicity.

I love Malifaux exactly for the complexity it has. It's not exactly rocket science. Your argument that you often have to check rules or ask questions applies to any game out there. Unless you know your rulebook by heart, this is something that is going to happen, even to experienced players.

There should be a gap between experts and beginners, especially for tournaments, not sure i understand this need to make things accessible to everyone, no matter their level of skill or involvement. By accessible I mean newb friendly.

EVERYTHING in life, if you want to get good/better at it requires time and involvement.

Is there any chance we could see a spectating option in the future?

Everything would be locked but you could go through the crews and the scoreboard? 

And thanks for a great app! 

Congratulations to all the winners.

Wonderful works across both categories and the overachiever ideas were top notch. It was really difficult picking only 3.

Hey everyone! I am Itsy, or Trevor.

I I love the world of malifaux but anxiety keeps me away from playing. So right now I am a collector more than anything.

I love making and doing things so my list of hobbies is quite long. Currently I am enjoying painting, building combat robots, leather craft, woodworking, 3d printing, cross stitching , working with clay , and building terrain among others. 
Now that I have done the hard bit of introducing myself, excuse me while I creep back into the shadows and admire the forum from a safe distance.

 

 

Hey Itsy, welcome!

I still think of myself as new here but I think you will find the wyrd community the best ever!

Congratulations to each and every participant, especially the winners. Thanks for sharing all the great work. And, ofc, thank you Wyrd for another great event.

Stay creative everyone!
