Skitt_Happens Posted June 9, 2019 Report Share Posted June 9, 2019 Hello! The Tinker, Taelor series is my beginner friendly tournament, and wouldn't you know it: going into it's third year corresponds excellently with the release of 3rd edition. While the event is designed to accommodate those less experienced at Malifaux and/or the tournament scene, players of all calibre are welcome - so whether you have never been to a tournament and want to see what all the fuss is about or you are a UK Masters ranked player and want a relaxed event to grease the gears, please take a look! Tournament pack is here and here are the highlights: Venue Dark Sphere Shepherd's Bush Megastore Unit 8 W12 Shopping Centre London W12 8PP Tournament Format The tournament will follow the rules for Gaining Grounds (if there is one) except where it is contradicted in this document. Rules specified here supersede Gaining Grounds document. This will be a sixteen player, three round, fixed leader event. Strategies and Schemes are pre-determined and are revealed below. If there is sufficient demand, we may be able to expand beyond 16 players *there was sufficient demand and we have now expanded to 24 player capacity!* Any leader that may be selected in multiple factions must also declare a faction. Dead Man’s Hand Models are considered legal as follows: Ramos as declared Leader (considered to be Arcanist Faction) with Brass Arachnid and Electrical Creations. Ryle as hire into Hoffman crews only. Lilith as declared Leader (considered to be Neverborn Faction) with Cherub. Collodi as declared Leader (considered to be Neverborn Faction) with Marionettes. However, no model in the crew may take the “Effigy of Fate” Upgrade Nicodem as declared Leader (considered to be Resurrectionist Faction) with Vulture. *Hiring additional Master models besides the Crew’s Leader will not be permitted in this event* Tournament Schedule Each game will last two hours and fifteen minutes including set-up. 10:00-10:30 Registration 10:30-12:45 Game 1: Corrupted Idols / Wedge Deployment - Detonate Charges - Hold Up Their Forces - Take Prisoner - Claim Jump - Vendetta 12:45-13:30 Lunch & Painting Competition 13:30-15:45 Game 2: Turf War / Flank Deployment - Breakthrough - Search The Ruins - Dig Their Graves - Outflank - Assassinate 15:55-18:10 Game 3: Plant Explosives / Standard Deployment - Harness The Ley Lines - Dig Their Graves - Power Ritual - Deliver A Message - Claim Jump 18:10-18:30 Clear-up and prizes Entry Tickets are available are available by sending a payment via PayPal to myself, and attendees will be listed on the Wyrd Forums.

SurreyLee Posted July 1, 2019 Report Share Posted July 1, 2019 @Skitt_Happens I played a lot of M2e but not really got into M3e yet. Would you be happy for me to come along as not necessarily a beginner. Let me know as I do have a pass for the event from SWMBO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skitt_Happens Posted July 10, 2019 Author Report Share Posted July 10, 2019 Updated tournament pack linked above. Strats and Schemes are now revealed, DMH clarified and Awards have been renamed to fit M3E card for Taelor... except for the "I Paint Better" award because I love that pun even if it is now a little defunct... After much consideration I have reluctantly decided to rule that multiple masters will not be allowed for Tinker, Taelor, M3E: I am aware that the community has concerns over the effect multiple masters have on competitive games and until I have seen more of it in play, I don't want to risk ruining someones day with one horrendous experience. I am open to reconsidering this stance if there is enough support to allowing multiple masters. Just over a week left to get your ticket at the reduced rate! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skitt_Happens Posted July 23, 2019 Author Report Share Posted July 23, 2019 If anyone was planning to play Explorers Society: I haven't ordered a Best Explorer prize - You'll be competing against Guild players for best in faction. If that's upsetting to you, I'm sorry, but I'm already way over budget and had to way up the likelihood of it being a waste of money...

Skitt_Happens Posted July 24, 2019 Author Report Share Posted July 24, 2019 If anyone wants to play Nekima or Dashel, as they do not currently have their Totem I will allow them to take Mysterious/Brutal Effigy via Helping Hand rule.

Skitt_Happens Posted July 28, 2019 Author Report Share Posted July 28, 2019 Wow - I'm delighted with the popularity for this event and am looking to see if I can add some more space. To those attending, if you are able to bring some terrain without putting yourself out too much it would be greatly appreciated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd love to, but together with lumping my figures it's not really feasible on the tube! Could maybe manage some scatter though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skitt_Happens Posted July 29, 2019 Author Report Share Posted July 29, 2019 Now accepting up to 24 players! Any additional terrain and/or mats you are able to easily bring will be much appreciated - I'm pretty sure we will have enough, but would rather have too much rather than not enough. Thank you to this wonderful community for pitching in and letting this happen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
