Clousseau Posted February 19, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 19, 2013 Is it a ranked tournament Dave? If it draws people in, then yes. If it puts people off, then no. My plan was to keep Sun, Sea & Soulstones as the 35SS ranked event again, towards the end of the year, with 25SS & 30SS events leading up to it. However, as many events now seem to be ranked I don't see any problem with making this ranked. Comments anyone? Rules pack will be available by the end of February.

Joel Posted February 20, 2013 Report Share Posted February 20, 2013 I've never seen a problem with ranking events - from what I've seen of the malifaux scene it really doesn't make a jot of difference to the spirit the games are played in. I'm an "opt in" as default where rankings are concerned. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JazzNazz Posted February 20, 2013 Report Share Posted February 20, 2013 looking forward to this any chance this one can be ranked i want the points please Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattspooner Posted February 20, 2013 Report Share Posted February 20, 2013 I'm sure I'll be coming and if it is ranked, pretty sure Mike will come (such a rankings whore!). The tractor massive will make trip again, and hopeully rape and pillage the prize pool again (except me, cos I'm rubbish!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trevelyan Posted February 20, 2013 Report Share Posted February 20, 2013 I will be there, assuming I am available nearer the time (but the early warning makes that all the more likely). I know nothing about the whole ranking thing, can someone explain? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joel Posted February 20, 2013 Report Share Posted February 20, 2013 I will be there, assuming I am available nearer the time (but the early warning makes that all the more likely). I know nothing about the whole ranking thing, can someone explain? a few years back, some bods came up with the idea of ranking all the players in a game system (whfb, 40k, warmahordes, etc.) based on tournament performances. Depending on the size of an event, and your final position in it, you would be awarded a certain number of points. The three best-scoring events you had would be added together, providing a way of listing the players from top to bottom. Just a bit of fun really, lets you do the smack-talk thing From this, the top 16 in a system get invited to a "Masters" event in January each year to see who's top dog. Malifaux joined in on this a couple of years ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clousseau Posted February 25, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 25, 2013 Rules pack has been sent of to TTN for them to tart up, so should be available later this week. Based on the new Gaining Grounds document. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clousseau Posted February 26, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 26, 2013 So what are the crew hiring restrictions? Select from a predeclared 60SS fixed faction pool. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aka_hazard Posted February 27, 2013 Report Share Posted February 27, 2013 are mercenaries permitted? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adran Posted February 27, 2013 Report Share Posted February 27, 2013 I think it is being run based on the new Gaining grounds document. So your 60 ss pool can include out of faction minions and avatars. If I'm right, then the cost listed on the card is the value of the minion for your pool. (I.e. Johan will always take up 6 ss from the pool of minitures, but when you hire him for a crew you will pay 5, 6 or 7 ss depending on the crew you have picked as normal). There are more examples in the document. (If I'm wrong then we'll just wait and see what the rules are) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clousseau Posted February 27, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 27, 2013 are mercenaries permitted? Yes. As Adran has rightly pointed out, the pool is the points as on the card - any penalties or bonuses apply only when hiring for each game. This is different from the previous Gaining Ground guidelines.
