With the the official release of Gaining Grounds Season 4 (GG4) ahead of the deadline set in the rulespack, GG4 will be used for all rounds at this year’s event.

A copy of all of the Strategies and Schemes will be included in the player pack on the day.

A traditional part of the event has been players dressing especially for the event. Some players dress as specific characters from the Malifaux world, whilst some groups simply wear team shirts.

How far will you go?

There is a fan-voted award for the best dressed player.

The last ticket has been sold, so we’ll be seeing a record 116 players at this year’s event.

If you’ve missed out, but are still interested, please contact the organiser as there will be a waiting list.

With 59 tables of terrain required for the event, I need some help. If you can bring a terrain board please get in touch in advance so I can allocate spaces. It must be fully painted and be suitable for all strategies and deployments.

There will be a mini-raffle for anyone bringing terrain and an award for the best terrain.

Based on the current ticket sales of 108, the limit for the event will now be 116. This is based on the room layout and that some items for the event have to be ordered this week.

Tickets can still be ordered here Event

The rulespack has been updated to clarify ticket timing, applicable Gaining Grounds, event timing and a few other minor updates.

The rulespack can be accessed via the Event page.

With 89 tickets sold so far it’s interesting to see where players are coming from compared to last year.

There is a big increase in players from England, reflecting a growth in the game here, but still expecting more players from Scotland & Wales.

Overseas player numbers are down, but still hoping for representatives from Hungary, Finland, France and Norway. All welcome of course.

There is still time to buy your ticket, but I’ll be finalising numbers at the end of September in terms of freebies.

As we approach the end of August we have 70 confirmed attendees, but space for many more. If you are considering attending now would be an excellent time to buy your ticket as increased numbers will enable me to maximise any freebies and also encourages sponsors to be even more generous.

Also a reminder that overseas players are most welcome, and we’ll try to help with transport around Newark over the weekend where we can.

This year’s event will be themed around the Star Theatre in Malifaux, run by Colette Du Bois of course. This will steer the direction of the artwork and freebies on offer, and may even inspire a table.

To make all this work, however, I need you to buy your tickets so I know how many people to plan for, and what budget I have. So if you are planning to attend purchasing your ticket ASAP would be appreciated.
