Tale of Many Gamers: Challenge #1
Hey everyone and welcome to the Tale of Many Gamers, Gamescape Edition! A couple months ago, I decided to run my own painting league at my FLGS, Gamescape SF. We have a dedicated crowd of WHFB players there, but not as many painted armies as we would like, so I thought that this would be a great way to get all the players involved in getting their armies painted and finished, maybe in the future host or go to some tournaments as well. I created my own monthly challenge and scoring method, so that I keep everyone interested, keep it fun and keep it fair. Here was our first challenge:
Challenge #1 (~500 points) Sept 3rd - Nov 5th:Task: Paint 2 core units and 1 Hero.Extra credit: Write fluff or a short story about your army.
We had quite a few people show up, here is a list of our members and what armies they are painting:
- Adam (me) - Ogre Kingdoms
- Andy - Vampire Counts
- Chip - High Elves (Lighter guys)
- David - High Elves (Dark guys)
- Eliot - Tomb Kings
- Gaddy - Dwarfs
- Alex - Warriors of Chaos
- Nate - Dark Elves
- Skylar - Daemons of Chaos (Nurgle)
- Stewart - Skaven (Clan Volkn)
- Peter - Orcs and Goblins
- Ray - Orcs and Goblins
- Tyler - Daemons of Chaos (Tzeentch/Khorne)
- Will - Wood Elves
- Will D. - Tomb Kings
- Xavier - Skaven (Clan Skyre)
Most of our participants met the challenge and completed on time, those of us who could, got together on Saturday and played a Hero arena that I devised and had quite a blast, but ultimately, it was Chip's Reaver Bow toting Noble that won the day.
Here are the armies that were painted and present this weekend:
