  3. Event Title: The AoS Painting Masters - Cardiff - 11th-13th Jan 19

    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:

    - 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**

  4. 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

  5. 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.
