Veskit Posted February 8, 2014 Report Share Posted February 8, 2014 Presented by the Bellingham Warhamsters and the FauxShow Walpurgis is a story telling tournament started in 2011 by Jim Graham. It's currently being run by Dan Miner and Mark Handford as well as a host of volunteers. This year it is being held at Dark Tower Games May 3rd and 4th. It's focus has always been on a good narrative creating an atmosphere where you're a character in an ongoing story. It's designed as a more casual than competitive event whereby good people come together from around the region to play Malifaux together. If you want to ask any questions about the site, email me at dan@walpurgisgt.com. There has historically always been quite a bit of cool stuff that comes with the tournament and this year will be no different, we've already got plans for a custom deck, scheme decks, cool upgrades that affect the story scenarios planned, as well as a model to be used in some of the games and terrain peices that can be used in the games as well as outside of the tournament.

dkieft Posted February 13, 2014 Report Share Posted February 13, 2014 So, what is legal? I don't see this in the rules and think it is sorta important. I assume, that all the Wave 1 and Wave 2 M2E stuff is good to go (since it is official and all), but what of the Avatars which just launched beta yesterday? Also, lets talk proxies. With piles of new models that have yet to... um... have models... I imagine we'll have a lot of proxies (assuming this is cool with those in power). So my question is: What makes a legal proxy? Could I for instance use my limited edition Female Hog Whisperer as a Bayou Bushwhacker? Or would that be frowned upon? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mach_5 Posted February 13, 2014 Report Share Posted February 13, 2014 I'm gonna say probably no Avatars (unless they're made official before the event? doubtful). Proxies are allowed as always at Walpurgis. Try and make it obvious what the model represents, and if in doubt, check with the organizers (send us a pic of your proxy).

Veskit Posted February 13, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 13, 2014 Hi Derk, We're going to go with Wave 1 (obviously) and official Wave 2 stuff, but unless Wave 3 (avatars) becomes official before the event we'll be opting out of those. Proxies are allowed as always, just make sure your opponent is aware of what they represent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Veskit Posted March 18, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 18, 2014 Just over a month and a half away and only 5 people signed up! At this point we may end up selling more decks to people not coming! Where are all you guys that have been going in previous years? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dkieft Posted March 19, 2014 Report Share Posted March 19, 2014 I am going! I should have one or maybe two more, who so far have been too lazy to get their tickets... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Veskit Posted April 3, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 3, 2014 I'm working on getting the model for the tournament cast and I'm awaiting one of my buddy to get me photos to show. Cards are going out for order this Friday along with the Scheme decks. I'm also going to work on getting the extra terrain pieces (arcane monument and more) in the works this weekend. If you're on the fence get your ticket soon! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yarbicus Posted April 8, 2014 Report Share Posted April 8, 2014 Are tickets still available? Not sure I have the time or the money, but I would like to try. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danissome1 Posted April 9, 2014 Report Share Posted April 9, 2014 @yarbicus I am not officially with the tournament but checking on the Walpurgis site there are only 9 confirmed players on the list and there are 30 tickets. So all signs would point to yes. Hope it works out that you can come. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
