Gewehr91 Posted August 3, 2010 Report Share Posted August 3, 2010 Hey, I'm Ronald Dietz from Little Elm Texas. A little about me? i guess this is what i got. I'm an 18 year old college student who recently graduated from high school, I plan to major in history and get a career in teaching. I've gotten fed up with gw, and i started moving to skirmish games, besides getting into Malifaux i also love Warmachine, thank goodness for the internet for finding you other game companies. I love history and i love wargaming, and for some reason I found myself unexplainably drawn to Malifaux. Everything about it appeals to me, from it's dark setting to the gorgeous and disturbing miniatures. I only have the real problem of finding what i want to play as, I'll remedy that soon.

Mephguour Posted August 8, 2010 Report Share Posted August 8, 2010 Hey Ronald!! New Malifaux gamer here too. A couple of friends of mine get together at Area 51 and Hobbytown in Plano. Will be trying to figure out whats going on locally over the next couple of weeks. Three of us just picked up the game at Gencon and are trying to get through the rules for an initial game next week. Will keep you in the loop if interested. ~Meph Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kbdrand Posted August 8, 2010 Report Share Posted August 8, 2010 I'm in Plano and I've been to Hobbytown a few times and I asked them about Malifaux and they said there were no games. When do you guys play? I have played some at Area 51 and some at Gamer's Realm (which is closing for at least a few months unfortunately) but I'm always looking for other games.

I also have a number of crews available for people to play before they buy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mephguour Posted August 8, 2010 Report Share Posted August 8, 2010 Gamers Realm has been such a disappointment. I am supposed to get together with my other two friends to play our first games Thursday. We were going to play at my house but maybe we can head over to Madness Comics. Their new place is huge. I know Thursday is Warmachine night at Hobbytown ... let me chat with my pals and figure out what everyone can accommodate. If it plays as well as I am hoping than I would like to see if we can figure out a regular weekly or bi-weekly game night ... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kbdrand Posted August 8, 2010 Report Share Posted August 8, 2010 Looks like Madness Comics is in Denton? That's a little far for me. There used to be one in McKinney, but I heard it closed. I'd love to be able to do a bi-weekly game, but weeknights are tough for me due to work and kids. Usually Saturdays or Sundays work best.

Gewehr91 Posted August 9, 2010 Author Report Share Posted August 9, 2010 sorry it took me so long to reply, been busy, but i just put in my order for the ortega box, the rule book and fate cards, will definently like to be kept in the loop after i get my stuff in. I can easily go to Madness comics or Area 51 i live in the middle of them, though your posts are a little hard to understand [ tired right now] i can go up on the malifaux day are 51 and introduce myself, i just need to figure that day out.

kbdrand Posted August 9, 2010 Report Share Posted August 9, 2010 Normally there have been Malifaux games at Area 51 on Saturday, but they may play on other days as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chev Chelios Posted August 9, 2010 Report Share Posted August 9, 2010 The only chances I have are weekends.I'm stiil trying to learn the game too.I've only played at Gamers Realm but,I'll travel nearly anywhere. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mephguour Posted August 9, 2010 Report Share Posted August 9, 2010 Hey all ... I meant Madness in Plano at Parker and Custer. Sounds like we have some interest ... will just have to figure out a time and place for everyone. Good problem to have Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chev Chelios Posted August 9, 2010 Report Share Posted August 9, 2010 I think there is defintely interest.There is just a lot of competition for attention.I think part of the issue is that it is not militaristic enough.Personally,I have let every other game go, so I can play Malifaux.

If it is still open and has tables that could be a good place. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mephguour Posted August 9, 2010 Report Share Posted August 9, 2010 Are you sure that place is still open? I thought it shut down? If it is still open and has tables that could be a good place. It moved across the street into a bigger location. It is on the east side of Custer where the Albertson's used to be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kbdrand Posted August 9, 2010 Report Share Posted August 9, 2010 It moved across the street into a bigger location. It is on the east side of Custer where the Albertson's used to be. Ah, ok. I'm going to go check it out then. Do they sell Malifaux figures there? I could not find anything about them on the Internet so I assumed they just closed shop.

Mephguour Posted August 9, 2010 Report Share Posted August 9, 2010 I am going to talk to the owner and ask him to get some in. I prefer to support local but if he is only going to order what I need than I will probably just place an order with TheWarStore online.

kbdrand Posted August 9, 2010 Report Share Posted August 9, 2010 Yeah, that's why I liked Gamer's Realm since they stocked Malifaux (at least until they stopped ordering stock). Is Madness open on Mondays? If so I'll go in there today and ask them about Malifaux (strength in numbers). If not, I don't think I can get out there until probably Thursday.

kbdrand Posted August 9, 2010 Report Share Posted August 9, 2010 I stopped by Madness Games (www.madnessgames.com) but the owner was not there. I did notice that they have a pretty large number of tables for play (about the same space as Gamer's Realm). We should try and schedule something maybe this weekend.

EricJ Posted August 10, 2010 Report Share Posted August 10, 2010 Well, I don't want to stop the conversation, but I did want to welcome our new member to the forums. So don't mind me, but Welcome!! Great to watch a new malifaux group getting organized in your area Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kbdrand Posted August 10, 2010 Report Share Posted August 10, 2010 That's ok, the conversation has kind of stalled for a bit. We are trying to get a local game shop to carry the Malifaux line so we can get more people interested. Unfortunately even the stores that do carry Malifaux don't stock very much and don't do any kind of Malifaux game night. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kbdrand Posted August 11, 2010 Report Share Posted August 11, 2010 I still have not heard back from the owner of Madness Games and Comics. Anyone had any luck in contacting him? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kbdrand Posted August 12, 2010 Report Share Posted August 12, 2010 I just got a response from the owner of Madness Games. He said he just ordered the full line of Malifaux stuff and should be getting it in soon and he asked me for some times/days when I could come in and he would try to reserve a table. I'm going to try to do something either Saturday after 5 pm or Sunday after 12 pm. It would be great if some other people would show up and we could run through a few demo games.
