mattc Posted May 8, 2019 Report Share Posted May 8, 2019 Hey Wyrdos! Gen Con is on the horizon, and this year we have plenty in store for people to get involved. While Gen Con may be a couple of months away, we wanted to show off what events we had planned so that you all can get the Best Four Days in Gaming planned out to a "T". If you are interested in spending some time with us and Volunteering for booth credit, go check out our Volunteer thread here. Tournaments: Throughout the course of Gen Con, we will be hosting various tournaments for both Malifaux: Third Edition and The Other Side. More detailed information on each event will be made available in the future.

Champions of Earth Tournament (Thursday 10am - 6pm) Bring the full force of your Company for this 3 Round, Two Commander Fields of Glory Tournament. Daily Events: Every day at Gen Con, we are going to be running a few recurring events* so that players can get their "Faux Fix" at their own leisure. *Sunday event schedule may vary. Through The Breach (9am - 11am) Crafting a New Characters Fate: Begin to understand your Destiny and step through the Breach by learning the basics of gameplay and Character Creation in Through the Breach: 2nd Edition.

Hobby A Dash of Color: Speed Painting Challenge(11am - 1pm) (3pm - 5pm) (7pm - 9pm) Come join Wyrd Games for our take on a speed painting event! All skill levels welcome. In each event, all participants will be provided with the same model (a different model for each event!) and will have to fully paint it within the time allotted. Judges for each event will decide the winner, who will walk away with a special prize! All participants will at least walk away with the model they painted. All models will be pre-built and pre-primed before the show. We'll see you at Gen Con from August 1-4 in Indianapolis, Indiana. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kyle Posted May 9, 2019 Report Share Posted May 9, 2019 If you haven't seen it yet already, we just released a Gen Con newsletter that goes over our events and more. You can read all about our plans by visiting the news post here: https://www.wyrd-games.net/news/2019/5/9/5ntep5b4ry7eu9nh8c4k14icmnie7x 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Davos Posted May 9, 2019 Report Share Posted May 9, 2019 Do you know when the rules set for the Henchmen hardcore will be published? Or is it the same as M2e? (Or am I just blind and not finding them?) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mappy Posted May 16, 2019 Report Share Posted May 16, 2019 3 days till event registration. Most people will have their entire schedules planned out at that time, will the Wyrd events be posted before then? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nathan Caroland Posted May 16, 2019 Report Share Posted May 16, 2019 You do know that we have jack all to do with that correct? You submit the events to Gencon, then they go through their process, and in their own good lovin' time put them up. We've had events posted for them for some time now, but here in the forums you can find what we have submitted, hopefully, that'll help with your decision making while they apparently take a bit more time to do what they need to. 1 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChoriQueso Posted May 20, 2019 Report Share Posted May 20, 2019 I was thinking about the "Dash of Color" event but I can't find a SINGLE Wyrd event on all of GC's event finder. Shall we continue to wait for it to show up or is this something we'd sign up for at the booth? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nathan Caroland Posted May 21, 2019 Report Share Posted May 21, 2019 Give it a day or so. GenCon is backed up in releasing all events unfortunately. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cavalierartist Posted May 23, 2019 Report Share Posted May 23, 2019 I missed out on speed painting. Will any more sections open? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pergli Posted May 23, 2019 Report Share Posted May 23, 2019 Tournament question: will we be using the correct boards or mats for the tournament? Last year it was a bunch of prebuilt boards with awkward built in terrain on 37x37 boards vs the standard 36x36. I did notice the finals had mats by mars on them so I would assume this tournament would have those too. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure, but some of those boards may date back to 1st edition, and thus have seniority over most players. 😎 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pergli Posted May 26, 2019 Report Share Posted May 26, 2019 Is there an update on events? Doesn't look like any but the speed painting has gone up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
muraki Posted May 26, 2019 Report Share Posted May 26, 2019 Nothing so far, I've been checking, but there's also no steamforged / corvus belli events up, so think gencon is just taking it's sweet time putting up tourney events. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nathan Caroland Posted May 26, 2019 Report Share Posted May 26, 2019 We've reached out to them, again, to find out when to expect things to go up. Don't expect to hear anything till Tuesday earliest with the US holiday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShinChan Posted May 30, 2019 Report Share Posted May 30, 2019 Nothing so far. I know it's not on your hands, just answering here as an update for everyone and to be updated if someone answers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pergli Posted May 30, 2019 Report Share Posted May 30, 2019 I emailed gencon support directly because I like meddling and this is their response: Yes, that did it. I see that there are multiple events submitted for Wyrd, they simply need to be processed by our team over here. Sit tight, and you should be seeing those events on the Event Finder (though it may take as long as a few more weeks). 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kyle Posted June 3, 2019 Report Share Posted June 3, 2019 Our Gen Con Event list is now available. https://www.gencon.com/event_finder?search=wyrd Sorry for the wait! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pergli Posted June 3, 2019 Report Share Posted June 3, 2019 Thanks Kyle! On more question: proxies, will those be listed anywhere or have someone I can reach out to about it? The resser master Albus and his core box don't come out until after gencon and I'd like to run them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
muraki Posted June 4, 2019 Report Share Posted June 4, 2019 Thanks for the heads up Kyle! I got into all the stuff I want. It'll be a busy wyrd filled gencon! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
muraki Posted June 5, 2019 Report Share Posted June 5, 2019 What's the difference between the 'Dash of Color' speed painting challenge versus the Wyrd Miniatures Speed Painting Contests? Are they the same models? I wanted to sign up to paint some Wyrd minis but I have limited time, so I'd like to go to the one with cooler models Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We missed out on the other contest since it took some time to figure out vacation plans. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
