=] EVENT: Call to Arms 2026: Heresy [=

[Dr_Ruminahui]

Just realized I missed posting this here.

 

 

Greetings all warlords and generals of the Horus Heresy.

 

Call to Arms is back this year, with @Dr_Ruminahui running it again.  For those new to B&C or simply unaware, Call to Arms is a Forum wide event that this year runs from June 15th until September 15th!

 

The forum is split up into 5 Strongholds: Imperium, loyal Astartes, Chaos, Xenos and Heresy with all 5 factions competing against one another to paint the most in the 3 months time limit. There will be a Central hub thread for each of the Strongholds in the Work in Progress section of the Forge forum which will be linked once it's live. We can use thread to cross post in and track/give motivation to those participating.  For those of you familiar with previous Call to Arms events, the rules are exactly the same this year except for the new Rapid Deployment vow.

 

Check out the full rules here

 

If you've got any questions, give @Dr_Ruminahui or one of the Mods a shout!

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.

 

 

All points are per model. For example if you pledge (epic scale models) 5 Infantry bases (1ptx5), 2 Warmaster titans (2ptsx10), 3 Landraiders (3x2pts), and a Thunderhawk (4pts), your vow would be worth 35pts.

 

Please feel free use this thread as a place to share your thoughts, ideas, and WIPs prior to the Event to motivate and inspire the forces of the Emperor or Warmaster and the Heresy to Victory!!!  After June 15th, please do the same in the Heresy Stronghold!
