Psst Listen up. 

Ive been watching you for a little while, as you work hard to make a name for your self in the world of Malifaux.  I can tell you really want to be a big shot, but so far you have been pathetic.  You are a mere lowlife crook, stealing the occasional soul stone in the hope that it will give you magical abilities.  Perhaps you hope to bring the dead back to the world of the living.  Maybe you hope you can power great steam engines to help you conquer the world.  I think you just want to make a name for yourself that will live on in the world of Malifaux.  Well, I'll make a deal with you.  I happen to know the whereabouts of a new technology that will amplify the power of a single piece of soul stone and give you the abilities that you have only dreamed of.  So, why am I giving you this information instead of keeping it all to myself.  Well I was once in your shoes, looking to make a name for my self.  Unfortunately I crossed the wrong people, and now there are a number of contracts out for my head.  But that is neither here nor there.  I will tell you what.  I will give you directions to the device, and once you have it in your possession, we can share it and both have our wildest dreams come true.  If you accept my offer, meet me back here on Wednesday at high noon, and I'll give you a map on how to get to the technology.  Stay safe until then, and you may need a couple of friends to help you. 
 

Starting on Wednesday 2/17/10 a 4 week league will begin to search for this mysterious technology.  If you are up to the challenge plan to build a 15 Soul Stone list and come back here on Wednesday to get the first scenario.

As close to high noon as I could possibly get it.  Here is the scenario for Week 1.  You can post your results here, or PM them to me.

League Scenario 1
I am glad to see that you decided you would like to make a name for yourself here in the Malifaux. So, I am guessing that the reason you decided to meet with me is you would like the map to get to the new technology. Well I am a man of my word, so as long as we have a deal, here are your directions. On the out skirts of town, there is a small mining community that was abandoned a number of years ago when it was determined that the vein had dried up. In the basement of the foreman’s house lies the map in which you will need. I know I told you that I would give you the map but the mercinaries that were hired to bring me to “Justice” have been hounding me all week. If you get the map and bring it back to me, I will point you in the direction of the technology.
SCENARIO WEEK 1: Getting to the foreman’s house
Strategies: Claim Jump. (choose a 5”x5” piece of area terrain to represent the foreman’s house. Both players are trying to capture the terrain feature)
Schemes: Each player can choose up to 1 scheme for this scenario, however you may not choose any schemes that are specific to your gang ie: Neverborn cannot choose Kidnap.
Deployment should be flipped for as normal.

Glad to see some interest from here.  Sorry I couldnt make it up on Sunday for a game, but thanks Charlie for getting me your results.  Here is the scenario for week 2. 

 

League Scenario 2

Great job!  You were able to track down the map that is needed to get to the technology.  It does appear that there is someone else looking to get the technology as well.  I have been looking into who else might be trying to find the technology, but I am not quite sure who it could be.  Since you have the map, whoever this other person is will be looking to follow you.  I have been starting rumors in the bars, brothels and other shall we say sketchy areas so that we can set a trap for these scoundrels that are trying to take the map from you.  Once we can get these less deserving parties out of the way, we can continue to follow the map without further hindrance.  You should be very careful until we are able to remove these competitors from the picture, and carry on.     

SCENARIO WEEK 2: Removing the Competition

Strategies: Assassinate- Follow the standard rules for assassinate from the Malifaux rulebook.

Schemes: Each player can choose up to 1 scheme for this scenario, however you may not choose any schemes that are specific to your gang ie: Neverborn cannot choose Kidnap.

Deployment should be flipped for as normal.

 

I don't quite know what is up with the code being on the screne, but it does not show up when I edit, so I cannot get rid of it.  If a mod can, that would be great.

Are you doing a cut/paste from MS Word? The editor doesn't understand how to parse the underlying code that comes in the paste.
