maverike_prime Posted December 15, 2011 Author Share Posted December 15, 2011 Quick question: I'm using the "draigowing" for my army. The Palladin squads don't have "sergeants" per se; Do they count as Veterans, or should I start converting up something else? My Grey Knight Codex has taken a leave of absence it seems. Don't the paladin's have some form of Squad leader?

The Palladin squads don't have "sergeants" per se; Do they count as Veterans, or should I start converting up something else? I'll make an exception for this particular question in the interest of time and consider the Paladins to be like Veteran Marines. So go for it, Abraxus.

Something Wycked Posted December 16, 2011 Share Posted December 16, 2011 Correct decision; Paladins are the veterans of the veterans of the veterans. The squad size is 1-10 and each can have completely unique wargear, similar to Wolf Guard.

Montuhotep Posted May 18, 2012 Share Posted May 18, 2012 Maverike_prime, quick question - are we allowed non-GW parts on these entries? Only there are some parts I need to use from companies such as Crocodile Games in order to add the correct 'flavour' of the chapter my Chappy comes from. The base model is GW, though. This okay?

The_Chaplain Posted May 19, 2012 Share Posted May 19, 2012 Stupid question I'm sure; but is the prize of winning simply bragging rights, or is there some kind of prize for winning the challenge?

maverike_prime Posted May 19, 2012 Author Share Posted May 19, 2012 Stupid question I'm sure; but is the prize of winning simply bragging rights, or is there some kind of prize for winning the challenge? Well that and a little banner you can put in your signature. But yes, no other prize beyond the bragging rights and sig banner.

The_Chaplain Posted May 24, 2012 Share Posted May 24, 2012 Alright Maverike_Prime, another question for you: You wanted the 4 main pictures for final submissions- but are we allowed to link to a WIP thread when we submit that features pictures of some of the smaller, more WIP pictures? The reason I ask is because some of the conversion work on the model I am submitting may be obscured by the weapon held across the chest.

I just want to avoid having 20 pics submitted to the challenge thread itself.

Brother Kirk Alexander Posted May 27, 2012 Share Posted May 27, 2012 Quick question: is the two page maximum an absolute? I got carried away and my story is tree pages long. I could end it there but I originally intended to add at least one more seen.

I could end it there but I originally intended to add at least one more seen. truthfully there is no hard and fast "absolute". 3 pages is pushing it a bit, but I'm not going to say it's a dis-qualifier. Just remember I have to read all the entries for judging. So 2 pages time 10 entries is 20 pages to read.

YoungWolf7 Posted June 13, 2012 Share Posted June 13, 2012 I've actually built 2 models: 1 power armored version & 1 TDA version. Both are the same character. Can I / should I enter both? If I do, would each require it's own story?

If I do, would each require it's own story? That'd kind of uneven the playing field don't you think? You'd have a model advantage over the rest of the competitors. I'd say go for the model that best fits the character, and let the conversion and the backstory speak for themselves (and maybe link to the other in a WIP thread). :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/200856-interested-in-a-conversion-challenge/page/29/#findComment-3085197 Share on other sites More sharing options...
YoungWolf7 Posted June 14, 2012 Share Posted June 14, 2012 It wasn't my intent to gain an unfair advantage. I was indecisive as to which way to go with the model so I built them in parallel. It was a fun way to work out ideas as I went and helped to avoid model burnout.
