All the models have to be from the declared faction, unless the model is also a dual faction, or has the mercenary trait.

[HeresyBrush]

The city is empty of nightmares by now! although Sonia was seriously injured by an innocent baby with a knife!

Rubén vs Petri --> 8-2

[Meganiikko]

Hurrk

Just putting this out here just in case Hannu does not check his inbox too often
Work came up, cant play today (unfortunately)
Would it be possible to play tomorrow 12.2 10:00?

Edit:

seems that Hannu does not have time atm. Would it be possible to play our game in the next week?

[Sutenööri]

Juha - Teemu 8-2

Turn 5 and Teemu folds having only 2 models alive while Nicodem keeps summoning undead hordes was too much.

The game ended with 5 point difference, and I doubt it would have been anymore even if we would have continued.

Round 2! 15.2-6.3 (notice the longer round!)

If you haven't played your first round match yet, try to do it this week!

Jere - Heikki
Rubén - Juha
Hannu - Teemu
Salli - Petri

Fight on!

[Varapalmus]

Jere - Salli 10-0

Showgirls vs. High Rollers

Lynch and co. draw like gods, while the girls stumbled over incredible amounts of bad luck, leaving the board almost completely under my control on turn 4, at which point Salli forfeited, seeing that there was no reason to keep struggling.

Killjoy jumping out a pigeon is bloody terrifying

Remember to still complete the game, even if other side loses all their models, they might still win, only the point difference counts.

Can you remember what was the point difference when the game ended?

[Meganiikko]

Alas!

Misaki and Perdita had a little fist fight. That might have ended with lots of friendly fire, 2 dead blokes by missed shots (dang guys, pistols are not safe brawling weapons!) and overall carnage. Once again, nether Ototo or Misaki lived to see the end of the game, but the back-up retinue walzed 6 points to Perdita's 2. If only i knew how to play objectives properly, and owned scheme deck, the outcome might have been different.

Anyway,
Misaki-Perdita
Heikki-Hannu
Difference: 4 points
7-3 league points

(i did tell you, it was almost a draw!)

Random stuff you bump into in the vastness of Internet:

Skirmish Supremacy joined by Miranda Burke (a semi-professional wargaming youtuber, with tournament history with KoW, FB, Warmachine and whatnot) to discuss stuff, and they have a little go at Malifaux at 20-30 minutes or so.
http://www.podcasts.com/skirmish-suprem ... ourke-a7c9

Just thought you lot would pop an interest. Not a main topic but something they discuss.

[Meganiikko]

27 minutes in for 5 or so minutes.

Mainly critizism towards changes between malifaux 1E and 2E, scheme markers (as in why there are scheme markers instead of actually models doing stuff), fast models overrunning board, and the summoning system. to quote "the strategy in 2e was gone".

Also comparisions to Warmachine.

Thanks for heads-up.

[Sutenööri]

8-2 for the glory of Ressers... It was rather brutal game :E
