StaffyManasse Posted October 23, 2017 Share Posted October 23, 2017 (edited) Has there ever been a B&C Secret Santa event? I'm asking because a certain video game related forum I frequent on seems to be imploding, and what really bums me out is that there might not be a Secret Santa for me to take part in this year. Sadly I cannot volunteer myself to organize one with my baby boy taking most of my spare time still. I know organizing can be a pain. But it's also great great fun. For those unfamiliar with the concept: - You give your address to a trusted third party along with details such as your interests. A wishlist of sorts. - You are given an address and details to sent a present. The minimum value is agreed upon. 20€ or such, perhaps. - Someone gets your details and sends you a present.

That's pretty cool, even if not for those of us who hardly have the time to paint our own minis lol.

Dosjetka Posted October 23, 2017 Share Posted October 23, 2017 (edited) For those who are tight on money but have enough spare bits and pieces lying around to build a single Space Marine, for example, building and painting up a model is a much more accessible gift so that should be kept in mind as well. It also makes the present a bit more personal.

m0nolith Posted October 23, 2017 Share Posted October 23, 2017 (edited) Id be up for it, but I doubt this idea is going to gain much traction here in the community sub-forum. Maybe is someone moved it to Amicus Aedes?

Dosjetka Posted October 23, 2017 Share Posted October 23, 2017 Didn't notice this was in the Community subforum. I'll punt it over to Amicus (good idea, m0nolith). m0nolith 1 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/340695-has-there-ever-been-a-bc-secret-santa/#findComment-4915548 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aramis K Posted October 23, 2017 Share Posted October 23, 2017 I like this idea, I'd definitely be interested in taking part. A single unpainted model would be about right I think, fun conversions encouraged. I don't think preferences are needed are they? Just 40k stuff. And a thread to show them off and say thanks.

Guest Triszin Posted October 23, 2017 Share Posted October 23, 2017 I might be interested, I'll pay attention to this thread. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/340695-has-there-ever-been-a-bc-secret-santa/#findComment-4915745 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phantomzero17 Posted October 26, 2017 Share Posted October 26, 2017 I still have the three models I painted for a Frater. Never heard back from them on their address.

General Strike Posted October 27, 2017 Share Posted October 27, 2017 As long as you guys don't mind them painted at my skill, I would love to do it.

mactire Posted October 27, 2017 Share Posted October 27, 2017 Yeah, the Colours Of War on the SW forum was excellent last year. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/340695-has-there-ever-been-a-bc-secret-santa/#findComment-4919092 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother Cambrius Posted October 28, 2017 Share Posted October 28, 2017 (edited) I would certainly be interested in doing this, although I will be away from my paints and plastic over the Christmas/New Year weeks so my submission would possibly be early/late.
