Autumn Conclave 2013 - WHW 28th September

[Necris]

Enjoy your games guys

Just dropping in to confirm my attendance.

I've seen talk of INQ 2.0, which I assume might be loosely inspired by my aborted work on that project.  Would love to get in on that.  I haven't had time to sort a 28mm party, yet.  My collection is a bit short of GW stuff, right now...

'Allo 'allo.

Any chance anyone already has a handy quickstart rules booklet or similar halfwit/noob learning aid?

Obviously it's a little late to be asking now, but no harm in it - any brushing up I can do on teh train can only help the smooth running of games.
Apologies if I've missed a link already posted - I had a quick rummage through Marco's folders, didn't see anything too promising.

Thanks all.

[Cortez]

Marco's got the Inquisitor reference sheet in his archive somewhere. I don't think anyone's ever done a quick start rules though (would probably be a good idea to produce one though).

[TheNephew]

Got the ref sheet, thanks, and a healthy fistful of similar ][ gaming aids, but as you say it doesn't look like there's a proper simplified-but-reasonably-comprehensive-on-one-sheet rules handout.

I can probably hammer one together out of screens from the LRB and Word.

[Bloodpact]

I might have snagged another player. He's new to the game, but familiar with the universe!

[Cortez]

What time are people arriving at Nottingham tomorrow?

I'll be on the 7.38 to Nottingham from Manchester Oxford Road arriving at 9.30.

me too... may have to wing table 5s scenarios!

[TheNephew]

I get in 09:26 from St Pancras - happy to hang around.

Anyone else?

If not, easiest way to get to WHW?

[Koval]

Arriving at about 08:40 or thereabouts from Ely. I almost always wait for Marco anyway, so I'm more than happy to hang about for more fellow Clavers.

[MarcoSkoll]

Ho hum. Once again I'm not happy with how much I'm having to rush painting, so I guess it's Lyra again.

I've seen talk of INQ 2.0, which I assume might be loosely inspired by my aborted work on that project.

Loosely so. I think the game would really benefit from the update, so I've been trying to raise some interest for people to get involved in a joint project.

What we've got for tomorrow though is not much more than a few very crude bolt-ons to 1st ed to mainly play-test a reactive system and close combat that tries to encourage the attacker to choose actions other than just "attack".
We're more testing concepts and ideas than actual rules at the moment.

as you say it doesn't look like there's a proper simplified-but-reasonably-comprehensive-on-one-sheet rules handout.

There are rule summary pages at the back of the rulebook, but....

... well, that's useful. They're not actually in the rulebook files.

I get in 09:26 from St Pancras - happy to hang around.

Then you'll be on the exact same train as I am.

Although, knowing me, I'm probably more likely to be exhausted than interesting conversation.

[TheNephew]

There are rule summary pages at the back of the rulebook, but....

... well, that's useful. They're not actually in the rulebook files.

I thought so.
Distinctly remember having seen some once.
And I'm reasonably sure I've not actually seen a rulebook in the flesh, so scans must be out there...

As for not being talkative - no worries on that front. I'm off out soon, and don't expect to be in the greatest of shape getting up at 04:30 to get up to London...

[Cortez]

Ah the joys of conclave meets. Last minute painting and early starts  .

[krenshar]

My own last minute prep has just been interrupted by news that's going to steal my Saturday away, so I'm sorry to say that I won't be joining you all. I hope it's a blast though and I'll be looking forward to seeing any photos and battle reports.

[Koval]

Sorry to hear it Krenshar -- hope everything's okay.
