As Your Deed, So Your Destiny

A 5-week Escalation-style Malifaux league

 

The Dragon’s Hoard (199 Main St, Hackettstown, NJ 07840) would like to announce an Escalation-themed Malifaux league starting Sunday, May 6th and running for five weeks. There is a $10 entry fee, payable to Craig at the store, which the vast majority will be used for prize support. The focus of this league is again to help our new players learn their faction/crews (or old players learn new factions/crews) through several games which start small but will increase in point value. You are not locked to a crew box this time to permit some flexibility, so it is not really a “Slow Grow” like we have tried a few times in the past. Instead, simply announce your faction. There will be no set schedule of strategies and schemes but games should be played using the Gaining Grounds 2018 packet with regards to Strategies and Schemes. Since we have some new players, the painting requirement will not be enforced but instead there is a possible penalty for unpainted models in the rules below. Summoning will be banned/capped for earlier weeks, as the game is typically balanced for a 50 soulstone encounter and summoning is largely regarded as very unbalancing in smaller games among the larger Malifaux community.

 

League weeks begin on Sundays, starting May 6th. Up to two games may be reported per week, League Points may be earned by the following:

 

2 points- Awarded to players who have never played in one of our local leagues before

1 point- Show up to the store on a Sunday (traditionally, our “Malifaux Day”), maximum 1 point per week

1 point- Kill an unpainted enemy model, maximum 3 points per week

1 point- Play an opponent in the League that you have not yet played during the League

1 point- Play with a Master you have not used in a League game, maximum 2 points per League
