PeregrineFalcon Posted October 28, 2014 Report Share Posted October 28, 2014 How frequently do you play Malifaux. Assuming a 12 month period, on average how many games do you get in per month? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PeregrineFalcon Posted October 28, 2014 Author Report Share Posted October 28, 2014 Yeah I'd say I don't play as much as I want But I go through cycles of heavy and less than heavy play. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Psientologist Posted October 28, 2014 Report Share Posted October 28, 2014 With tournaments maybe every other month and playing once to twice a week IRL I went for 9-12 "on average" IRL. Barely Vassal now. Once a month tops. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silas Cordell Posted October 28, 2014 Report Share Posted October 28, 2014 I have been averaging 1-2 games a week, but due to schedule changes, it's looking like 0-1 now. Adam, we should play more often. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adam, we should play more often. No doubt....kids always cramping our style! I think my number is probably higher, but it just feels like the past 3 months I've had very few games. Or maybe I just think about the game a lot and don't play it enough to satiate the urge. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rythos42 Posted October 28, 2014 Report Share Posted October 28, 2014 When M2E first came out, I was playing roughly 2 games a week. Then something "more important" filled my club day up, so now I get 2-3 games on a random Sunday a month, and Vassal with a friend occasionally. Vassal is brilliant for him -- he has 2 young children, so we play a turn or 2 at night when he has a spare hand, then save the game and come back to it later. (Unfortunately his Rafkin has been at 1 wound for about a month now! ) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Durza Posted October 28, 2014 Report Share Posted October 28, 2014 I generally get one game on Friday at the local club, except with my work hours it's only 4 out of every 6, and i might get an extra one if my brother comes round and feels like a game.

Jonasty Posted October 28, 2014 Report Share Posted October 28, 2014 It was 1-3 a month, sometimes almost crossing to 4-8. Then baby hits and of course that's out the window. But I'm hoping 1-3 will be the norm once things settle out. Vassal is brilliant for him -- he has 2 young children, so we play a turn or 2 at night when he has a spare hand, then save the game and come back to it later. I didn't realize that was an option! I've thought of exploring Vassal more now but even dedicating a couple hours at the house has been hard to do. This might actually let me get some games in a little more often, even if piecemeal. Granted I'll need to find one of my buddies patient enough to play that way lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SurreyLee Posted October 28, 2014 Report Share Posted October 28, 2014 I've it looked at Vassal, however I used to play a bit of real Bloodbowl until I found fumbbl and now I never play real bloodbowl. I really like Malifaux and the interaction I get with my chums so if this means less frequent games, I'm happy with that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luckily, we'd both rather have a stuttered game, than no game at all! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michaud Posted October 28, 2014 Report Share Posted October 28, 2014 For me, I get in one or two non-tournament games a month, and I usually make it out to a tournament every other month, which puts me at the 1-3 games per month bracket. Wish I could play more, but I take what I can get. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArcticPangolin Posted October 29, 2014 Report Share Posted October 29, 2014 I actually don't play many 50SS games at all, mostly 41 - 45 to get an edge on time constraints. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MasterDisaster Posted October 29, 2014 Report Share Posted October 29, 2014 I'm actually fairly lucky, I have a group of friends who play Malifaux quite a lot and my local gaming clubs also have some interest. The sad thing is that there doesn't seem to be a lot of them playing at the moment. Many of them are buying in GW's End Times rubbish which is in my opinion an attempt to revitalize a stagnant world of fluff. Many of them (as did I) started with Warhammer and are now crawling back to it because of new over priced plastic kits. I've not had an enjoyable and challenging game of Malifaux for a long time. Although my Fiancee and I decided to play Malishots a few weeks ago which was extremely good fun! (FYI Malishots = Shots of Vodka for SS, minimum 7ss pool ) The game ended in a 7-6 win to me because 4 Mindless Zombies managed to drop Ototo below half wounds for Bodyguard. It was close, challenging and fun... God I miss those sorts of games on the table! Thankfully zFiend and I play a game on Vassal maybe once or twice a month and I've had a few other opponents from time to time as well so I am capable of getting my fix but the drop off in my local area has caused me to take up other systems such as Hell Dorado whilst I try and promote the awesome sauce that is Malifaux at the club I attend. I'm contemplating a 1 Box, 1 Master slow grow league in my local club or clubs early next year to drum up some new opponents/interest. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeregrineFalcon Posted October 29, 2014 Author Report Share Posted October 29, 2014 Well I got three games in last night, so my number just jumped hehe. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pierowmaniac Posted October 29, 2014 Report Share Posted October 29, 2014 Currently 1-3 non vassal games per month and likely to drop off even more over the coming year due to work commitments Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joel Posted October 29, 2014 Report Share Posted October 29, 2014 4-8 realfaux a month - maybe a little higher on average but it's about there. Closer to 8-9 really. Vassal is 1-3 as I can't do both Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NIGHTHATER Posted October 30, 2014 Report Share Posted October 30, 2014 Peregrinefalcon, I only get to play with my best friend and play about 3 times every two weeks is my guess. Since I only play a modified version of 1.5, 50 S.S. is a pretty big game really. I think 50 S.S. is the new average for M2E though right? Anyway I play about 6 times a month, but since I'm moving I will get many more games in soon is my guess. As for Vassel it feels very dead and impersonal. You can't enjoy the painted models, terrain, visual aspect, ya Vassel just doesn't "do it" for me. Vassel feels really hollow when I can just jump on my computer and blow up a skyscraper in BF4 or all the other amazing games and visuals you can see during the same time you would be on your computer. Although I haven't used Vassel for quite a while now I don't know if it's gotten better. Nighthater Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
