Huronbh Posted September 8, 2010 Report Share Posted September 8, 2010 Well you know I am in, still not sure what crew I will be playing. Right now it looks like Nicodem, but I am not 100% on that. -jay Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Svenn Posted September 14, 2010 Report Share Posted September 14, 2010 Hmm, how far is Ashburn from the DC area? I'm on the Maryland side, but I could potentially make this. It happens to be right in the middle of my vacation too. Eek, that means I'd need to get painting fast... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nix Posted September 14, 2010 Author Report Share Posted September 14, 2010 Not far at all. If you can come across Whites Ferry its about 20 minutes from the VA side. If your coming in from 270/495 its about 30 minutes up rt 7 from the 495/270 split. We also have regular Malifaux gaming on Tuesday nights at the same location.

Svenn Posted September 14, 2010 Report Share Posted September 14, 2010 It looks like it's about an hour away assuming no traffic... which there always is on 495/270. >_< When do we have to be registered by? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nix Posted September 14, 2010 Author Report Share Posted September 14, 2010 Technically you can register on the day, but pre-registration is always welcome. you can pre-register via paypal and a quick PM or email to me. Currently we have a soft confirmation of 5, but I expect that will jump up by the end of this week. I am pulling together boards for up to 20 players, with an expectation of ~10.

nix Posted September 21, 2010 Author Report Share Posted September 21, 2010 Just a quick teaser on one of the boards that being built for the tourney. Here is the bog board with fresh water effects just poured and starting to dry. Edges will be painted and the board will be flocked/static-grassed once the water effects dry. There is still room left for the tourney, pre-registration is appreciated to make sure we have enough boards for everyone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nix Posted October 4, 2010 Author Report Share Posted October 4, 2010 Tournament was very successful, with 9 players showing up to play 4 games. All told, the players made out with everyone walking away with a painted and based Wagon Marker, Best overall received a custom Graveyard terrain piece, a set of poker-chips for markers, and $25 in store credit. Tactics, Players Choice, and Sports each received $15 in store credit plus a set of poker chip markers. Overall stats on for the day below: Both Perdita (using the starter box) and Levi had a very strong showing. I was very happy to see only 1 Master was duplicated through the day. I would have liked to see Ressers or Neverborn, but I know our local players were otherwise engaged and not able to make it out. Let me know if there are any questions!

Svenn Posted October 4, 2010 Report Share Posted October 4, 2010 No ressers? Sad I couldn't make it out to represent the Ressers... got caught up with stuff and then got a Jury Duty summons. Ugh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ugh. No worries Svenn, you just have to make it down for the next one. I know we had 2 of our regulars who ended up working at the store that day, so they ended up switching off on the ringer army (which came in second by points.. ugh). We also had 1 wedding and 2 "girlfriend kidnapped me" events that removed at least 3 others. I am starting to plan the next couple events (a league/campaign and another tournament) so keep an eye out! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
