The Call to Arms 2026

CHAOS STRONGHOLD

 

Time to bust out those brushes and paints and stand ready to represent your Forum/s of choice and aid them on the path to claim Victory!!!!

 

 

What is The Call to Arms, I hear you ask?

 

The Call to Arms is a multi-forum event designed to  encourage us all to start a new army, or bolster our current forces.

 

The Forums of the B&C are divided up into five Strongholds;

 

The Astartes Stronghold

• Adeptus Astartes
• Black Templars
• Blood Angels
• Dark Angels
• Space Wolves
• Ultramarines
• Grey Knights
• Deathwatch (note, Deathwatch models can be vowed either in the Astartes or Imperium Strongholds)

 

The Imperium Stronghold

• Adepta Sororitas
• Adeptus Mechanicus
• Astra Militarum
• Imperial Knights
• Talons of the Emperor
• The Imperium of Mankind
• Deathwatch (note, Deathwatch models can be vowed either in the Astartes or Imperium Strongholds)

 

The Chaos Stronghold

• Chaos Daemons
• Chaos Knights
• Heretic Astartes
• Death Guard
• Emperor's Children
• Thousand Sons
• World Eaters
• The Realm of Chaos

 

The Xenos Stronghold

• Aeldari
• Drukhari
• Genestealer Cults
• Leagues of Votann
• Necrons
• Orks
• T'au Empire
• Tyranids

 

The Heresy Stronghold

• Age of Darkness
• Epic Scaled Heresy Games

 

These five Strongholds will act as the hub for each of the five main Factions, and will for the 3 Month duration of the Call to Arms, run independently of the four other Strongholds. At the end of the 3 months, the five Strongholds will face off, and overall winners will be declared.

 

Dates

 

Start Date: 15th JUNE 2026

End Date: 15th SEPTEMBER 2026

(Timezone will be GMT -8 [so, North American Pacific Coast time], please make local adjustments for time)

 

 

So, how is it all going to work?

 

1.   As each of the Strongholds are treated independently (except for final rankings), you may choose to focus within a single Stronghold, or participate in several. Your Vows will be treated independently in each Stronghold, meaning a Failed Vow in one Stronghold will NOT effect Vows in the other Strongholds.

 

2.  Models pledged to a Stronghold must come from the army books associated with those Forums covered by each Stronghold. The exceptions to this are 30K/40K scale Titans and models not associated with a given faction (such as Necromunda models and terrain), which may be pledged to any Stronghold.

 

3.  You may join in any of the Strongholds at any time within the 3 Month time-frame of The Call to Arms.

 

4.  For each Stronghold, you have a MAXIMUM of 3 Vows.  For each of these vows, you must finish your active vow before pledging to a second or third vow.  In addition, there are the following additional vows:

 

       a)  Job's a Big'Un:  you can vow a model with a value of 10 or more points, which you can work can work on alongside your other vows and complete at any time.

 

       b)  Rapid Deployment: this vow can be for any number of points and can be made at any time even if you have an uncompleted vow.  However it must be completed before completing any other vows (including any Job's a Big'Un vow).

 

5.  Once recorded, Vows may not be altered, however special considerations may be made upon request.

 

6.  There is no minimum pledge, you may vow 1 model, or your entire collection, but beware, failing ANY vow in a Stronghold will invalidate ALL completed vows for that Stronghold.

 

 

How do I join in?

 

Each model has a point value based upon its size, and the comparative amount of effort and time it takes to paint said model, listed below are are the points-per-model.  More specific lists can be found in each Forums Rally Point thread, but I've added some generic examples below,

 

1/2pts  GW provided markers and token (for example, teleport homers, eldar shrine tokens, mine tokens, grot orderlies, squig bombs, etc.)

1pt   Infantry

2pts   Cavalry/Bikers

3pts   Heavy Weapons Teams / Walkers (Dreadnaughts, Sentinels)

4pts   Skimmers / Light Vehicles (Landspeeders, ATV, Armigers)

5pts   Small Tanks (Leman Russ, Rhino Variants)

6pts   Large Tanks (Rogal Dorn, Sicaran, Land Raider)

8pts   Superheavies (Baneblades etc) 

10pts  Chaos Knight etc

 

Characters

5pts   Leader/Character models

10pts Primarchs

 

Note 1: Characters with Retinue, I.E. Saint Celestine.  The Leader model is worth 5pts, the other models are pointed as to their type - for example, Saint Celestine and her bodyguard would be 7 points - 5 for the Saint (leader), 1 each for her 2 seraphim buddies.

 

Note 2: "Named" models are only characters for Call to Arms if they have the character keyword (or equivalent) in their game rules.  For example, the named models in the Wardens of Ultramar, while Epic Heroes, do not have the character keyword and are not characters for this event.

 

30K/40K Scale Titans

20pts Warhound Titan 

30pts Reaver Titan 

40pts  Warbringer Titan

50pts Warlord Titan

 

Terrain

1pt    3 Munitorum Barrels, 4 Munitorum Crates, Zone Mortalis/Gallowdark Column, Octarius Ramshackle Bridges

2pts   Aegis Defence Line Section, Aegis Defence Platform, Galvanic Servo-haulers, Thermic Plasma Conduit Section, Imperialis Ruins Wall Section, Zone Mortalis/Gallowdark Wall, Octarius Scrap Heap/Barricade

3pts   Fronteris Vox Antenna, Fronteris Auspex Shrine, Thermo-exchanger Shrine, Octarius Oil Rig, Necromunda Fuel Tanks

4pts   Munitorum Container, Mechanicus Transterranic Gantry, Galvanic Servo-crane, Big'ead Bossbunka, Skull Alter, Noctilith Crown, Octarius Ramshackle Walls

5pts   Tidewall Droneport, Tidewall Shieldline, Feculant Gnarlmaw, Miasmic Malignifier

6pts   Fronteris Landing Pad, Mechanicus Forgeshrine, Mechanicus Galvanic Magnavent

8pts   Fronteris Hab Bunker, Manufactorum Administratus,

10pts Zone Mortalis Gang Stronghold

 

Note: Custom/Scratchbuilt terrain- use this list as a guide as to how many points tour terrain is worth, but please make sure to mention your terrain is custom when Vowing.

 

Subfactions

 

In any Stronghold in which you have vowed, you have to choose which SUBFACTION you support with your vows.  This Subfaction must be one of the appropriate subfactions (listed above) for that Stronghold, and is chosen at the time of your first vow in a Stronghold (though may be changed upon request).

 

NOTE: Your chosen Subfaction doesn't have to correspond to your vowed models, although it typically does - for example, if you support the Heretic Astartes subfaction you can still paint Chaos knights or World Eaters as part of your Chaos Stronghold vows.

 

How to Vow

 

Please make your vows in this thread in the following format;

 

"I, {insert username}, heed the Call to Arms and pledge to paint {insert units/models} for {xxx pts} for the Glory of the {Subfaction name} and the {Stronghold name} Stronghold on or before 15th September 2025, or bear the badge of failure until year's end."

 

In addition, please indicate if you vow as a Young Blood or if it contains an entry for the Master of Forge (see below for both).

 

For example:

 

"I, Dr Ruminahui, heed the Call to Arms and pledge to paint 6 possessed, a converted Master of Possession, Lucius the Eternal and a Necromunda Fuel Tanks for 19 pts for the Glory of the Emperor's Children and the Chaos Stronghold on or before September 15th, or bear the badge of failure until year's end.

 

The converted Master of Possession is my entry for the Master of the Forge."

 

The post that contains your Vow must include starting pictures that contain all the models from the Vow.

Starting models may be in any of the following conditions;

• In the box
• On the Sprue
• Assembled
• Single Colour Primed
• Sub-assemblies primed in different colours will be acceptable, I.E. chassis in Leadbelcher, with armour plates in secondary colour.

Additionally, you may pledge models you have not yet received I.E. Warhammer: Imperium Subscription, just make sure a image is edited in to your Vow post once you've received the models, and make a post indicating that you have done so.

 

Your Vow is considered complete when you declare it so, and post completed pictures of all models contained within the Vow. Although "Complete" is to your own standard, we would like you to aim for GW's "Battle Ready", with the miniatures based. If basing is something you don't do, or won't be doing within the Event's timeline, please return the bases to flat black or brown.

 

Required Completion Pictures: Each vow completion must contain pictures of all completed models - either in the form of a "group" photo or of each model/unit individually.  Indeed, both is recommended, as the group photo really shows off your progress, and the individual photos best show your hard work and facilitates choosing candidates for best painted.  All completed entries for Master of the Forge (see below) must have their own photos.

 

Once you have made your vow, pop this badge of Participation into your Signature:

 

 

 

Will there be badges?

 

Yes!!  There will be Badges awarded for various achievements during the event - many members put the badges they have earned in their signatures.  Note, these are separate and different from the ranks and achievements tracked by the forum software.

 

Badges are awarded for the following:
 

Event Failed: Servitor

1-9 points: Completed

10-24 points: Chosen
25-44 points  Aspiring Champion
45-76 points:  Champion
75-99 points:  Lord
100+ points:  War Master

Princeps - Awarded to all completed 30K/40K scale Titans 
[Stronghold] Champion - Awarded to the member who individually paints the most points worth of models in the Stronghold

Champions of the Horde - The Subfaction with the highest overall points worth of models in a Stronghold

Champion of the Call - The Subfaction that has the Highest Participation vs. Completion Percentage in a Stronghold.

 

 

As to the overall competition between the Strongholds, there will also be Badges awarded for the following;

 

Masters of the Horde - The Stronghold that completes the highest overall points worth of models.

Masters of the Call - The Stronghold that has the Highest Participation vs. Completion Percentage.

Grand Marshall - Individual with the Most Points of Models Painted across all Strongholds.

 

 

Finally, the following will be chosen by vote by the members:

 

Favourite Young Blood - This category is for participants who have been building and/or painting models for less than 12 months.  Anyone wishing to participate as A Young Blood will need to specifically declare that are are doing so when making their Vows.

 

Artificer - Top 3 best painted models from each Stronghold, chosen from a selection of models from the Stronghold made by the forum Moderators, Administrators and Librarians. 

 

[Stronghold] Artificer - Best painted model/unit for each Stronghold, chosen by the members from the 3 Artificers for the Stronghold.

Master of the Forge - Best Conversion or Kit-bash. Anyone wishing to participate for the Master of the Forge Badge will need to specifically declare that they are doing so when they vow the model.  Each member can only submit one model/unit

 

Master Artificer - Best painted model/unit for Call to Arms 2026, as chosen between the 5 Stronghold Artificers.

 

That's it, you've done it, you've made it to the end!!!

 

 

If you have any questions or queries, contact me,  @Dr_Ruminahui and I'll be more than happy to help you out.

 

 

F.A.Q.s

 

Q- If I have models with different coloured heads or shoulder pads, can they be primed different colours IE. Black templars or Eldar Guardians?

A- Yes, this is acceptable.

 

Q- I want to paint Traitor Guard, is there a way to pledge them to Chaos?

A- Yes, for the purposes of Traitor Guard, the Astra Militarum units may be pledged to Chaos. The Realm of Chaos is the most appropriate forum.

 

Q- Are 3D prints allowed?

A- Yes, as long as they are board appropriate, 3D prints can be pledged to the Call to Arms. Use the points associated with the unit they represent.

 

 

THIS THREAD WILL REMAIN LOCKED UNTIL JUNE 15, 2026, AT WHICH TIME VOWS MAY COMMENCE.  

 

In the meantime, please continue to use the main announcement thread and the Faction rally points to discuss your participation and to ask questions.

* ALL STRONGHOLDS ARE NOW OPEN, YOU CAN NOW MAKE YOUR VOWS *

 

Happy painting!  Be sure to cheer on your fellow stronghold participants!

As a reminder, all vows must be completed by September 15th.

[Dr. Clock]

I, Dr. Clock, heed the Call to Arms and pledge to paint 10 Berzerkers for 10 points for the Glory of the Doom Weasels (World Eaters) and the Chaos Stronghold on or before 15th September 2025, or bear the badge of failure until year's end.

 

 

Cheers,

 

The Good Doctor.

 

 

[Bonehead]

I Bonehead pledges to base and paint a platoon of Kur Guards, that being a minimum of 25 traitor guard models. To be honest a significant portion of them still need building too, but most of the ordinary troopers are done and waiting for basing. Hopefully that's just the start, there's plenty of time to go, but you never know. I am waiting on parts for the officer and sergeants- from Victoria Minis, and the last time I pledged while that was a factor they didn't get here in time. So I'll just pretend that's not a thing.

EDIT :As variously noted, the actual rules were not as such followed. So right here is a picture of the traitor guard in question, subcategory A (built already):

 

 

And here is the rest of them, comprising subcategory B (existence in a more inchoate, existential uncertainty):

 

 

That is, not yet built. I bet no-one's going to bet me I can make it up to the full 25 with that stash of parts.

Also, pledge, supplemental, other:

 

 

I'm pledging to also build up this lot of close-combat-o-phile heretics to ten model inc. sergeant and flamer, and to subsequently paint them to boot.

Edited June 23 by Bonehead

[Dr_Ruminahui]

@Bonehead - please post a picture the models you have so far (assembled or the bits you are going to assemble them from) and post unpainted pictures of the ones "in the mail" once you get them.  And note, you need to vow a definite amount (so, 25, rather than "at least 25") - you can always make another vow for more later.  I'm putting you down for 25 now.

Edited June 15 by Dr_Ruminahui

[Lord_Ikka]

I, Lord_Ikka, heed the Call to Arms and pledge to paint 1 Chaos Lord in Terminator Armor, 1 Warpsmith, 1 Master of Executions, 5 Legionaries, 5 Terminators, 5 Chosen, 5 Havocs, and 2 Obliterators for 39pts for the Glory of the Word Bearers (Heretic Astartes) and the Chaos Stronghold on or before 15th September 2026, or bear the badge of failure until year's end."

 

 

Edited June 15 by Lord_Ikka

[sitnam]

I, Sitnam, heed the Call to Arms and pledge to paint 1 Malcador Tank, 1 Chimera Half Track, 10 Traitor guard stormtroopers, 10 cultists, and 1 Traitor Guard General (Castellan) for 36 points and the glory of Tzeentch (Realm of Chaos) and the Chaos Stronghold on or before 15th September 2025, or bear the badge of failure until year's end.

 

 

My Master of the Forge entry will be my Traitor General

 

[Dr_Ruminahui]

I, Dr. Ruminahui, heed the Call to Arms and pledge to paint 10x Infractors, 6x Noise Marines, 1x Lord Kakaphonist, 1x Chaos Lord, 1x Vindicator and 1x Chaos Abomination (counts as ogrynn) for 33 points and the glory of Slannesh (Emperor's Children) and the Chaos Stronghold on or before 15th September 2025, or bear the badge of failure until year's end.

 

 

I pledge my chaos abimination for the Master of the Forge - it was a tough call between it and the vindicator.  Here's a close up of it (pre-priming):

 

:

 

 

[kabaakaba]

I, kabaakaba, heed the Call to Arms and pledge to paint 5 Plague marines, 1 Blight hauler and munitorum container for 12 points for the Glory of the  Grandfather, Death guard and the Chaos Stronghold on or before 15th September 2025, or bear the badge of failure until year's end.

[Valkia the Bloody]

I, Valkia the Blood, pledge my soul to Chaos Unidivided and vow to paint, for the glory of the Heretic Astartes in the Chaos Stronghold:

- 1 squad (5) of Night Lord raptors

- 1 squad (5) of Night Lord Warptalons

--> These guys have been sitting on my shelf of shame for years now, they have been assembled and primed but I never managed to paint them because SO MUCH TRIM

I hope I find the motivation now. 

 

Then-  "Job's a Big'Un"

- 1 Night Lord Chaos Knight (which is an Imperial Knight still vintage in the box, I have been wanting to convert it to Chaos for some time now; when I have annual leave in July, I will also set up this years "Jokaero Challenge" and pledge the conversion in there) 

 

Maybe I am able time-wise to add a second vow after this - I still have several Night Lord characters that need painting, they also have been collecting dust on my shelf of shame, models like Kurze, Sevatar, Warpsmith, Sorcerer, Executioner. We will see. 

[Tallarn Commander]

Ya'all have some wonderful projects! It will be fun seeing them come to fruition.

 

Here is my first vow.

 

"I, Tallarn Commander, heed the Call to Arms and pledge to paint 1 Chaos Lord, 1 Chaos Apothecary (counts-as Fabius Bile), 1 Chaos Legionary, 1 Chaos Possessed, and 4 Chaos Cultists for 16 points for the glory of the Heretic Astartes in the Chaos Stronghold on or before 15th September 2025, or bear the badge of failure until year's end."

 

 

My 1st Vow of 8 Hooligans

 

 

 

Names and Individual Photos

Spoiler

 

 

Hazzar the Child Skinner, House Nightfall NIght Lords Apothecary (counts-as Fabius Bile)

 

 

Genocidal Tendencies, Warpborn Cultist/Traitor Guard

 

Corporal Rutger

 

 

Rust, Warpborn Cultist, Traitor Guard, Dark Disciple

 

 

Rookie, Warpborn Cultist/Traitor Guard

 

 

Downfall, Chaos Possessed, Warpborn Warband

Kitbashes are pending, I'll use bitz from the Horus Heresy Ursurax Cohort.

 

 

 

Schism, Warpborn Legionary

Some kitbashes are pending--a head and a robotic leg

 

 

Crutian of Midnight, House Nightfall Chaos Lord

 

 

Sadly, I still have to upgrade 42 already painted Night Lords models for the Tacoma Open next month. I had hoped to finish all of my Night Lords upgrades by now. But I only finished  upgrading 35 models. So this 1st vow probably won't be completed til late July. But then I'll be able to dedicate the remaining 6 weeks fully to my Call to Arms 2nd and 3rd vows.

 

 

Enjoy the photos!

 

 

 

 

 

Have fun everyone! This events are always very inspiring.

 

 

The Warpborn, "Death to the Dark Mechanicum"

The Night Lords, "Ave Dominus Nox!

[Dr_Ruminahui]

@Valkia the Bloody - I need you to edit in a pre-painting picture of your models - a picture of the knight box or sprues are fine if it is unassembled.  Good luck with the trim, the bane of many a chaos painter.

[Brother Argent]

Not as many models as I'd hoped for this, but if I get the progress I am hoping for I can always vow more:

 

I, Brother Argent, hear the call of Grandfather Nurgle and vow to raise:

 

1x Cepio (Typhus) (5pts) -  MASTER OF THE FORGE ENTRY

1x Tallyman (5pts)

 

 

These 10 pts I pledge to the Death Guard Sub Forum, but only because we follow Nurgle Too

[gaurdian31]

I'm working out what I need to build for my Word Bearers but hope to have something posted no later than June 22nd. Probably going to be a character of some kind and a squad of terminators.

[Antarius]

 

I, Antarius, heed the Call to Arms and pledge to paint one Knight Despoiler for 10 points for the Glory of the Realm of Chaos and the Chaos Stronghold on or before 15th September 2026, or bear the badge of failure until year's end.

This is going to be my "Job's a Big'un" for the Chaos Stronghold this year and I hope to make it look a lot nicer than it presently does, maybe even put some sort of head on it, but this was how it looked when I dug it out of my pile of projects 

Next week, I'll hopefully manage to get far enough along with my prepwork for either my Daemons, Traitor Guard/rabble or Chaos Marines to make a more "standard" vow as well.

[gaurdian31]

How many points is a Demon Prince? Are they Primarch or Leader points wise?

[Dr_Ruminahui]

@gaurdian31 - Foot prince is 5, winged prince is 10.  I really need to come up with some intermediate point costs between 5 and 10 for characters... maybe for next year.

Edited June 19 by Dr_Ruminahui

[sitnam]

Characters almost need their own scaling system. A wingless DP and some Astra Militarum nobody being the same points is kind of odd.

 

Not that it matters too much, this is a friendly comp and shouldn't be taken that seriously 

[sitnam]

How everyone's first week going? I got half of my traitor grenadiers done, with the other half almost done basecoating

[gaurdian31]

"I, gaurdian31, heed the Call to Arms and pledge to paint 5 Chaos Terminators, 1 Chaos Sorcerer in Terminator Armor and 1 Chaos Familiar for 11 points for the Glory of the Heretics Astartes and the Chaos Stronghold on or before 15th September 2026, or bear the badge of failure until year's end.

 

Spoiler

Sorcerer and Familiar built, the squad is still on sprue. 

[sitnam]

@gaurdian31 is that a old forge world renegade psyker i spot? Very cool model

[gaurdian31]

It is! I figure he'd be great as a Sorcerer's familiar. 

[Dr_Ruminahui]

@gaurdian31 - I've listed your familiar as 1 point (which is where you pointed him), since he's a full sized model rather than as a token which would be 1/2 point.  Does meant for a somewhat complicated description on the Participants post, though.

 

I've received (somewhat convolutedly) a message from @kabaakaba that he's lost access to the site for the moment, so he may be submitting his completions through me.  Or, if that doesn't work, I won't be counting his entries for this year's Call to Arms. 

 

* PARTICIPANT ENTRIES UPDATED AS OF THIS POST *

 

Please double check the Participants post to ensure that your vow is recorded correctly, for the correct number of points, for the right subfaction, correctly marked as completed (if completed) and is linked to the right post(s).

Edited June 23 by Dr_Ruminahui
