Event Title: The AoS Painting Masters - Cardiff - 11th-13th Jan 19 Event Author: Cowboy Boots Matt Calendar: Events UK Event Date: 01/11/2019 12:00 AM to 01/13/2019 12:00 AM The AoS Painting Masters: 11th -13th January 2019 I am very excited to announce the inaugural AoS Painting Masters! The event itself will be held at Firestorm games, in Cardiff, on the 12th & 13th of January 2019. I have also included the Friday on the event date, as anyone who has been to a Cardiff event knows the best social is the Friday night! The event will run alongside Santa's Hangover, this means that Painters outside the immediate top 16 of the rankings can purchase a ticket for Santa's Hangover and move this across to the Masters closer to the date if there are any droputs. Plus the players attending Santa's Hangover will also be part of the spectacle of the AoS Painting Masters, making both events very special! The event pack is now available: https://www.dropbox.com/s/amnm08rdu2uwvrt/AoS Painting Masters 2018.pdf?dl=0 - Each Player adds a 'Shadowy Agent' to their army for the weekend, this model will have it's own unique warscroll and will be key over the course of the event. Players are encouraged to create their own Assassin, Rogue, Ranger, Damned Spirit, Cloaked Daemon etc to suit their army: - An 'Achievement' system will be in place, with both a balance of gaming, hobby, and zany scoring! - There will be an equal focus on Gaming, Best Sports/Opponent, and Hobby/Painting Points. - Realm Spells & Rules are as follows: When selecting your army and declaring which realm you are from, you may also replace a spell from your armies Spell Lore with a realm spell from your chosen realm. In addition, realms will not be pre-selected each game, instead in each game you will either decide with your opponent to fight in one of the realms you have each chosen on your army list, or roll off if a decision cannot be reached. The realm spell & command abilities for that realm will be in place, and you will randomly roll for the realmscape feature. - There will be a speed painting contest, with an assembled model provided by the event. The model will also be used in subsequent games! **Many more details to cover over the next few weeks** BUYING A TICKET: The invitation process has begun for the top 16 players in the Pro Painted Rankings, as it stands the top 18 will be invited as I will be running the event and Jimbo is unable to attend. Tickets will cost £45 and will include food both days. There will be a wealth of trophies (I really do mean allot) and prizes during the event. VENUE: Firestorm games, 15 Trade street, Penarth Road, Cardiff CF10 5DT Top 20 in Rankings (Top 16 invited Initially): Aaron Bailey Adam Cunis Matthew Lyons Chris Tomlin Graham Shirley Jimbo Ben Savva Tim Fisher Danny Cashman Russ Veal Steve Wren John Greene Paul Buckler Adi McWalter Ben Johnson Chris Mills Attendees: Paul Buckler (Paid) Mike Burges (Paid) Aaron Bailey Chris Tomlin (Paid) John Greene (Paid) Danny Cashman (Paid) Steve Wren (Paid) Mike Wilson (Paid) Ben Smith (Paid) Stephen Smith (Paid) Matt Arnold (Paid) Tony Kirby (Paid) The AoS Painting Masters - Cardiff - 11th-13th Jan 19

Whack Jen down for this mate

Consider me committed.

@jonwarmingtonMine and Paul's team name is - Right Said Fred. We are also grudging @Arnieand Felix. Bring it!

@RichardCZ Throwing a grudge your way. Going to make up for all those times you smashed me in 8th!

@Ben I believe Ricky has to check with work, Me and Chris were kinda keen to come up with him regardless of whether we personally get in.

Eurghhh, this is so enticing, just sat, waiting to see if there are any drop-outs! Gratz to all those who made it in, fingers crossed me, @ChippyRick and @Chris Tomlin all end up in and travel up!

Thanks for the kind words @Paddy O'Sullivan - I had a great weekend and it was a great introduction for Jen to the scene. She commented that everything was perfect and was genuinely looking forward to her games. I had 4 top games and I enjoyed the 1/5th of the game I played against Tom! I can't think of any improvements as it was soooo casual - genuinely loved that (just like Paddy). Congrats on the winners and Paddy's lovely assistant @Chris Tomlin

Me and Jen are grudging the deviants that are Jan & Dom Hook YEAH!

Paddy, payment will be on it's way tonight bud.

Me and Jen will be attending and it will be Jen's first tournament. Whack down Matt Lyons and Jenny Lyons

I am also digging this could scheme. A great combination of colours for sure. I would steer away from highlighting the brass too far as you will start to blend the 'gold' look with the yellow. I much prefer the look of the brass on the first priest. I'm a huge fan of unusual colour schemes so this gets a huge thumbs up from me!

I was just going to see if I could get a sweet grudge organised, then I remembered I'm playing Terry. Totally forgot. Looks like I'll be bring my Nerf Gun after all.

Sorry for the slow payment, though I'd already sent it. Looking forward to this hugely, not quite sure how to go with my army yet as the scenarios have really given me something to think about! I urge anyone looking at going to get confirmed ASAP, this looks to be a fantastic event and getting a few more confirmed will likely encourage more to attend.
