Have questions? Ask!

experiment 626 · 04-27-2008

for the 2000+ pts brackets, can we compleat more than 300 pts/month so as to make life a little easier/stressful?!!

cheers!

Ikarus · 04-27-2008

monthly points limit removed as requested - if a person wanted to paint a tank, they couldn't.

So we might change it to one unit choice, any choice.

Yes - you can complete more than required.

We are just going to have them as guidelines for people who wants someone keeping them in check!

Under performance will be looked down upon.

Imperial Commander Gent · 04-27-2008

Can I do more than 2000 points?

precinctomega · 04-28-2008

How're the coaches going to be allocated?

masterofweirdness · 04-28-2008

Just as a note... when we start, the models must be unassembled, unpainted, minis. And the final army must comply with the standard FOC (IE 1 HQ 2 troops, plus 1 more HQ, 4 more troops, 3 Fast Attack, Elites, and Heavy Support)?

Just checking... I'm still not sure if my army complies with all those rules... think it does... but not sure.

grandmaster st ufirs · 04-28-2008

Brother Warchild · 04-28-2008

I hope not MOW,my DG marines are put together and 70% primed.

precinctomega · 04-28-2008

No one's going to know if you don't start with completely "naked" models.

This is true. However, we ask that everyone be on their honor. And, for those who compete with some things done, etc... Well, obviously that will factor in on the judging for certain awards and medals planned, but there is no overall winner, so no need to be as strict as it may sound.

Does that make sense, or do I ramble?

btw, is there a prize/honourable mention for the most insane entrant?!?

cheers!

Lord Commander Erus · 04-28-2008

Yessum there is...

Also, I think the date might be off, the end date was in '09 last I thought, but i'll speak to Ikarus on it.

Baron von Lexus · 04-28-2008

If models are built but not primed or primed but not painted do they count?

Brother Warchild · 04-28-2008

Well personaly i will be taking pics from start to finish.

lord marcus · 04-28-2008

i am starting from scratch with tomb kings. will there be an "most outstanding middle class painter/modeler award"?

Lord Commander Erus · 04-28-2008

Awards will be announced at the end.

Marcus, get the links to a competing form out of your sig. First warning.

Drax · 04-29-2008

How does that get judged? Do you have to give your army an herbaceous border and make sure they all drive Ford Galaxies instead of Rhinos? Or do I need to make sure that my painting area is surrounded by old copies of Home & Garden with perhaps a decorative floral stencil marking out my "hobby" territory?

R.

masterofweirdness · 04-29-2008

Okay... well then, I'll post up what condition my models are in when I start this project... sometime in early June.

I'll try and work out a 1k list now...

Thanks man.... I needed a good laugh!

And Drax, yes it could be used as a painting goal.

Colonel Marbi Chora · 05-01-2008

Will this contest happen next year as well? It seems really, really interesting, but I'm afraid I won't be able to participate this year v_v...
