It’s time once again for the monthly Malifaux Tourney at Dragon’s Lair Houston! With the North American Faux Tour standings officially closing in Mid-April, this will be your last chance to see if you can climb to the top of the Lonestar Conference standings! With the models from the new Ashes of Malifaux book being added into the crew builder app I’m excited to say that models from Ashes of Malifaux book will indeed be allowed this month! Come on out to try out the shiny new additions to your crews!
We’ve been officially using clocks for the last year and everything has been going smoothly, so I wanted to remind everyone that we will continue to officially use clocks in a full way for this event! I have enough clocks to provide them for the normal number of players we have at our monthly events, so no need to worry about that. You can find the rules document we will be using for the clocks at this link: https://tinyurl.com/LonestarMalifauxClocks

I will be VERY liberal with my proxy policy for models from the Ashes of Malifaux book since most don’t have physical models released yet (several have come in recently at Dragon’s Lair, so you can pick them up while you’re there!). Proxies for these models will be acceptable so long as they are on the correct base size and you inform your opponent in advance what the proxy model is representing. As always, painting is not required.

We’re booked for tournaments the 2nd Saturday of every month at Dragon’s Lair in their new space, so block out that day on your calendars in perpetuity! If you’re not familiar with the amenities at Dragon’s Lair they also have their Tabletop Tavern, so you can enjoy a beer while playing some Malifaux and have a tasty bite in between rounds!
This event will be a three round, 50 Soulstone, fixed faction tournament utilizing the Malifaux 3rd Edition rules. Registration will begin at 11:00 AM. Round 1 will begin as close to 12:00 PM as possible.

This tournament will be making use of the Gaining Grounds Season Four document, which may be found at:
