I, Weirdo, Oath these ten Savage Orcs (28mm, Games Workshop) and one Reaper Bones Earth Elemental. I'm going to put some pink rock in the elemental (some potassium feldspar or rose quartz in the granite :haw:), and perhaps a pink tattoo on an orc.

I, Deanut Pancer, oath this GW WH-Fantasy big squig thing (At least I think that is what it is - it is a really old, very heavy, metal model I found in an old box of stuff - possibly an old Gobbla model?)

I swear I'll make it one week without missing anyone's oath. I OATH IT!

Accepted!

Genghis Cohen's Nomad Wildcats are from Infinity. 28mm from Corvus Belli.

Nearly - you need to use the https://www.worldtimeserver.com site, though! I'm tempted to say 'eh, it's amnesty month' but since I've asked other folks to retake pictures because of their timestamp photos I'll need to ask you to do the same.

Life isn't worth it. Just count me out of the official scorekeeping or what have you this month, please.

As Baron Snow said, those are models from Corvus Belli's wargame Infinity. Wildcats - Polyvalent Tactical Unit, from the Nomads faction. Infinity is a great wargame and CB make very fine true scale 28mm figures.

Is there a limit to how complete models can be for amnesty? I've got a couple models with all the basecoats laid down but no highlighting yet, is it OK if I oath that?

You can still score the rest of the points for completing your Oath, of course. The photo including the time server is required only to earn one point each month, so this is fine.

OK. Corvus Belli is actually a thread sponsor, and I've been handling shipping their prize packages out, so I'm well aware of who they are: I just don't know their game products well enough to recognize their stuff by the names of the models. Note that by completing Corvus Belli models, you are eligible for the monthly Corvus Belli prize!

Yeah I need to get a hurry on and get something oathed/painted as well - I've just had other stuff to paint lately.

But in other news...

:siren: I've reserved a table at Warhammer World for a goon meet-up! :siren:

The guys from my gaming group, Hammertime40K will be there as well, so I've reserved an Apocalypse-size table for us all to play on.

Oh what's that, you say? 'AN' Apocalypse-size table? Isn't there only one? NOPE! There will be two! In November 'Jimigan's Bridge' will be completed and we'll be one of the first to play on it:





This is it in WIP state, this was used during Games Day in its unfinished state.

So here's the details, if anyone wants to come:
DATE: 15th of December
TIME: 10 AM to 6 PM (unfortunately closing time is earlier on Sundays)
THE GAME: Apocalypse! We'll see who shows up and divvy up the teams accordingly!

I'll be posting this in the 40K and Painting threads as well and if there's enough people interested I'll start up a thread in the meet-ups forum. My email is krushgroove169 at gmail.com to get on Da List!

So if you want to game or just hang out and have some Bugman's Ale, drop me a line and we'll get this thing sorted.

e: I've made a post on my group's blog to provide one place to keep updated - any updates will be posted here: http://hammertime40k.wordpress.com/2013/10/22/upcoming-warhammer-world-trip-apocalypse/

Ugh.

So, you're probably wondering: "Hey Slim, why are the first two pictures so goddamn tiny?" The answer to that is my camera decided to set itself to 640x480 while I wasn't looking, and the slew of pictures I had of Lady Justice and the Night Terrors all ended up being that exact size. What's worse is that I can't go back and retake them; they were commissions, and are already in the hands of their owners. There's no way I can get them back and take photos before the end of the month.

I mean, yeah, at least I GOT pictures to prove I painted them, so no failed oath this month...but finding that out today of all days is incredibly disheartening :smith:

Sorry, no amnesty for that! You can always oath it next month if it's still one color.

Nah, they have red pants. It took me a long time to discover the option to set timestamps to my own timezone, so for a long time they had to be translated from some weird American moon-time, so I just thought 'hey, cutoff time is soon, better oath some more' :v:

This is a good time to remind all UK hammergoons that I've reserved this exact table for a Warhammer World goon meet-up on the 15th of December! Details are here: http://hammertime40k.wordpress.com/2013/10/22/upcoming-warhammer-world-trip-apocalypse/

I've posted this meet-up in the 40K, painting and Oath threads - pass the word and let's get some goon-on-goon action!

So far in action we'll have:

Blood Angels
Space Wolves

Chaos (me)

plus whoever else can make it - anyone who can't or doesn't play is welcome to have a drink or two and just meet up!
