CaseyJ Posted July 1, 2014 Author Report Share Posted July 1, 2014 What shiny things are you selling? Sounds like a question for the big boys, but I'm going to go tentatively with .. games? We always announce late to avoid any broken promises, and this year is no different. We'll update the first post in this thread when we have announcements about products. (You, and 10,000 other loyal forum members, will be the first to know.) As always, anything we sell at Gen Con, and any con exclusives, will be available through Wyrd's web store during Gen Con. 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shadowopal Posted July 1, 2014 Report Share Posted July 1, 2014 Yep. Looking forward to meeting everyone I haven't and hanging with old friends. I am scheduled to be in the events hall for most of the convention helping run Wyrd events. Make sure to stop by and say howdy. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guslado Posted July 2, 2014 Report Share Posted July 2, 2014 I can't wait to see you all at Gen Con again and get my grubby little hands on all of the shiny goods! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
prof_bycid Posted July 4, 2014 Report Share Posted July 4, 2014 This is going to be great! Is there a general strategy for where to meet up in the Events Hall for pick-up games of Malifaux (e.g., near the Malifaux tournament area, or near the pizza counter)? Or is it just a free-for-all wherein we look for people carrying Malifaux bags and standing on tip-toes to peer over the crowds for the same? I hope to meet lots of you there this year! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaseyJ Posted July 4, 2014 Author Report Share Posted July 4, 2014 This is going to be great! Is there a general strategy for where to meet up in the Events Hall for pick-up games of Malifaux If you'd like, there will almost always be a spot in Wyrd's Events Hall space. Wyrd rents the table space for the con, so when we aren't holding Malifaux tournaments, our Malifaux tables are open for any Wyrd gameplay you'd like. (Justin will be around most of the day to answer questions.) If you want to try to earn prizes for Malifaux game play, consider signing up for the Achievement League. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spectrehorseman Posted July 4, 2014 Report Share Posted July 4, 2014 I can't wait to see what's for sale, but I have a question. A family of four can purchase four Sunday badges for only $30. As opposed to $50 tickets = $200 for any other day, its clear I should go with the lower price and spend all that extra money on miniatures Will Wyrd still have plenty of new stock items left that are sold only at Gen con by day 4? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
F3ARMonger Posted July 4, 2014 Report Share Posted July 4, 2014 Wyrd usually does a good job of only releasing a set number of new products each day. I don't know what the "official" policy actually is for GenCon. But, normally if you are proactive enough (contacting Wyrd being nice) they might just set you aside something. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spectrehorseman Posted July 4, 2014 Report Share Posted July 4, 2014 Mainly, I just want to get the exclusives. I can pick up some of the new stuff as well then or later. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mako Posted July 4, 2014 Report Share Posted July 4, 2014 Well, failing all else, you can always order them online if they're out of stock at the con - advantages of the special editions being online while gencon is happening. Last year they got hammered for the M2E book, so anyone arriving day 4 had to order it I think. But they do try to make sure it lasts.

Manic Mouse Posted July 6, 2014 Report Share Posted July 6, 2014 PLEASE NIGHTMARE DREAMER OR NIGHTMARE JACK DAW. PLEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEASEEEEEE! /prays to Lord Eric Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ausplosions Posted July 7, 2014 Report Share Posted July 7, 2014 Nightmare Dreamer has been done. Please no. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daemonkin Posted July 7, 2014 Report Share Posted July 7, 2014 NIghtmare Dreamer/Chompy has been done but the entire crew hasn't. Still, I much preferred Nightmare Justice crew to the Tara crew simply because Justice crew was already out so it gave people an alternative and those that missed out could still play the crew they wanted (normal Justice). Compared to those that have recently come into the game and want to play Tara they have 2 choices - pay high ebay costs or proxy. So where does that leave us? Crew sets from 1.5 Books 1-3 (Book 4 was mostly 10T so all plastic) or any of the plastic crews released so far: Mei Feng Misaki Lynch Perdita Sonnia Justic Seamus Nico McMourning Marcus Ramos Rasputina Lilith Pandora Viks D.

Mason Posted July 7, 2014 Report Share Posted July 7, 2014 If the Nightmare Tara crew hadn't been released, though, people would only have one choice: Proxy. I'd rather see a Nightmare Edition of an unreleased kit than a remake of a released plastic kit, at least until everything has been released in plastic and is ready to go. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rathnard Posted July 7, 2014 Report Share Posted July 7, 2014 Nightmare Ulix. Purely because I want to see a crew of Nightmare-Pigs. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kalkris Posted July 7, 2014 Report Share Posted July 7, 2014 While nightmare Pigs would be completely epic (Ulix... epic... XD), I want Nightmare Lucius, Nightmare Leveticus, or Nightmare Jack Daw. > ~Lil Kalki Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simian Posted July 8, 2014 Report Share Posted July 8, 2014 another vote for nightmare pigs here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ravenswood Posted July 8, 2014 Report Share Posted July 8, 2014 Vote for nightmare Molly/McMourning! (anyway will buy any nightmare/limited things) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeleteAccount Posted July 8, 2014 Report Share Posted July 8, 2014 I'd go for Nightmare Molly or Kirai too for sure. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daemonkin Posted July 8, 2014 Report Share Posted July 8, 2014 @Razhem I would LOVE a NM Molly set. D. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forar Posted July 8, 2014 Report Share Posted July 8, 2014 If the Nightmare Tara crew hadn't been released, though, people would only have one choice: Proxy. I'd rather see a Nightmare Edition of an unreleased kit than a remake of a released plastic kit, at least until everything has been released in plastic and is ready to go. Seems like a false dichotomy. Any open factory slot that can be dedicated to a limited release Nightmare variant of a crew could presumably go to the baseline 'for mass production' regular version of the crew, even if it's not a full size 'for global delivery' run. Honestly, the Nightmare Tara thing left a bad taste in my mouth. A variant run of an existing plastic OR metal crew wouldn't bother me, but that took me aback. I hope they don't repeat it.

daemonkin Posted July 8, 2014 Report Share Posted July 8, 2014 While the Nothing Beast was cool, the rest of the box was nothing special in my opinion. Would love something as epic as the Dead Justice box. Not saying it has to be metal or plastic but just something cool. D. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
