30 minutes warning! As of this post you have about 30 minutes left to get your completion post in! Technically I guess you could make an oath now and do some extreme speed painting...

Pash posted:The Terrain painting challenge someone posted is this month also, right? Yup, it is. I'll let Germ post the full details but iirc it's a similar 'raffle ticket entry' system I used for Monster May-Hem, with extra entries for an 'epic' amount of terrain and for writing rules.

I, Zark the Damned, oath the following for July 2016: One Temple of Skulls (GW) The contents of the Worldsmith Industries Kickstarter (minus Objectives which I already painted in Season 5), which includes: 3 sets of walls: Stone, Reinforced & Crumbling 1 set of Barrels and Crates 2 Swamps: Large & Small 2 Lakes: Large & Small 4 Area Terrain Bases: Size 3, 4, 5a and 5b 1 set of Gravestones 29 Area Terrain 'Inserts': 5 Large Rocky Outcroppings, 5 Crystal Outcroppings, 7 Tree Stumps (Actual Trees may or may not be added), 3 Landmines, 6 Rocky Slabs, 3 Plain (I may or may not add stuff to these later) I hope the pics are OK, it was a pain taking them! The full sized ones on Imgur should show the date but if not I took a close up. Likely more to come once I get this lot done!

Korwen posted:What are the rules about claiming a monthly bonus (like Summer’s here! Time to relax...) after you've posted an oath complete post? It never dawned on me the 3 of the models I painted are almost completely nude (albeit demons) What moths said. Maybe link to your completion post, but don't modify it. Achievement and Jurnal points only really affect the Grand Prizes at the end of the season so generally they're ok to retroactively claim.

A quick heads up, I've been nerding it up and learning about Conditional Formatting on the Spreadsheet. Amongst other things it should easily allow us to identity completions and Oath Breakers each month - https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1CjBdEM06ehsHI_IGCRx-Ls-j3Mw3vCoZ02a83yBnRtA/edit?ts=57292533#gid=1 - if your name is Green you have completed an Oath, and if it's red you made one but didn't finish it. Please let me know if you spot any errors! Similarly Judge names in the header will be in red until Judgement has been passed. Sadly the formatting system is kinda wonky so I'll need to go back and make changes if we get a lot of entrants this season.

Pyrolocutus posted:For the challenge, can we paint the water or does it need to be one of those water effects? Also, would a crack at swampwater be acceptable, or does it need to be brighter, happier water? Any of this (painting, swamps, etc.) is fine by me, though it's really up to krushgroove and the Judges Red Shoe posted:For July I oath: A Battle Boar, a Splatter Boar, 6 Morats, and 16 Damaged Urban tiles! It's good, I can make out the time and date OK. And yeah, big oaths are a bitch to photo, which is why my Oath's like a gallery this month

Southern Heel posted:You're quite right - Avatars of War Dwarf Berserkers. There are 20 in the box but will be scenic based on two 100mm x 40mm regiment bases - so more than MMC (i.e. 12) but as I haven't got them stuck down I can't give a top end figure. All will be painted, I don't know if all will be on the base. Don't blame you for using slightly undersized units, those guys aren't designed well as a unit and are a pain to rank up. I only got around it by designing the unit as a whole and putting dudes around the edges and 'cheating' with the mandatory 1 in 4 great weapons:

This is a good example of an Oath Completion, for reference: Luebbi posted:Oath Complete The important parts are: * The Oath Complete text * List of jurnals and achievements being claimed * Clear pic with username on it If you'd added WIP pics or Speed painting in other posts, you'd need to include those (or at least links) in the completion post too.

Oath Complete! Area Terrain Bases and flat inserts - the stumps are deliberately left bare while I try settle on which trees I want to mount on them Great Cthulhu! Ia! Ia! Ia! These pics don't show it too well but I'm pretty happy at the green to purple blend on his face tentacles Swamps and Lakes Temple of Skulls Walls, Crates and Gravestones Big rocks and candy-red Bloodstones, this was achieved via multiple layers of GW Blood for the Blood God over a silver base Claiming Jurnal for Great Cthulhu and the water features, b]WIP Photos[/b] for the crates, and Backstory for the Bloodstones intro (see below): Step 1: Basecoat in Army Painter Leather Brown, not worrying too much about getting it thoroughly in all the cracks etc. Step 2: Some crates picked out in different browns, including Army Painter Monster Brown, P3 Gun Corps Brown and P3 Bloodtracker. Step 3: Metal banding picked out in GW Boltgun Metal. Some areas painted up in assorted colours to add visual interest, and I busted out my collection of ancient waterslide transfers for logos. I imagine these to be the colours and logos of the provinces shipping their items out. Step 4: Finished off with heavy washes of Army Painter Strong Tone to shade and pull everything together. Also I'm entering Would July-ke to paint some Terrain, My Lord? - hopefully the amount of terrain qualifies as Epic. Also doing Picture Time and Rules Lawyer below. The Bloodstones There are some places of the world which act as magic hotspots. Maybe the leylines intersect, maybe it's the site of an ancient wizard's tower, or maybe some unspeakable rites were performed there, who knows? But what is known is that over time this magic solidifies beneath the surface of the world, erupting forth as giant crystals known as Bloodstones for their bright red colouring. Wizards can tap into the power of these stones to boost their spellcasting, but must be cautious as there is always the risk of feedback! Still, to many wizards the risk is worth it as great feats can be performed this way. Over time, the magic within the crystals gets used up or leeches away and the crystals disappear, meaning there is often a great rush to capture these sites as they are discovered. Kings of War - A wizard within a field of Bloodstones doubles the number of dice they roll when casting Fireball, Lightning Bolt or Wind Blast spells. Roll these bonus dice separately (or use a different colour) - every one which misses the Wizard's target is instead applied as a hit against the wizard! If this results in damage then a nerve test will be required as if the target unit was shooting the wizard. In the case of Wind Blast, treat the wizard as being hit by their target to work out the direction of travel. Dragon Rampant - A wizard (including wizardlings) within a field of Bloodstones must re-roll a failed activation test when casting a spell. If this re-roll also fails, the wizard loses one point of strength for every point they failed the test by. This will cause a courage check as normal. Picture time: From a recent Dragon Rampant game in my garage of doom. My Dogs of War (lower left) were hired to transport a sacred relic from it's resting place to a holy site for a ritual (off the top right corner). My opponent's (largely unpainted) swarthy Arabs caught wind of this and staged an ambush to steal the relic! The first couple of turns may mostly spent by the Dogs manoeuvring themselves to face the ambushing force, with the Halfling Scouts and Gunners on the left, Militia and Knights on the right, while the Pikes move up the middle to safeguard Rutger with the relic. Meanwhile the Arabian Sorceror on the right plinks away at the Knights with his fireballs, felling one, while the riders and spearmen position themselves to try and outflank us. The Halflings shoot at the light riders to the north, taking one down and causing some panic. The spearmen move around the swamp to try and intercept the pikes, while the gunners fail to achieve anything. A combined attack from the knights and militia manage to rout the enemy spearmen on the right flank, however the militia get scared and break (they will continue to rout for 5 more turns before rallying). Sensing the battle slipping away from him, the Sorceror unveils his trump card! Uttering the magic words, 'Djinn'll Fix It', he summons a mighty Genie to intercept Rutger as he tries sneaking through the Bloodstones! Alas, it is not to be. With a combination of brave resolve, mighty swordplay and the gunners finally pulling their fingers out and shooting something, the Genie is dispatched. The pikemen manage to mop up the enemy spearmen, though in the process get scared and retreat themseles, while the Halflings finish off the light horsemen. The Sorceror vents his frustrations by fireballing the remaining knights to death, but ultimately can only look on forlornly as Rutger hands off the relic to the Halflings to transport, with promises of eleventh and twelfth breakfasts to keep them loyal to the end. A concentrated volley from the gunners scares off the Sorceror, and the Dogs complete their mission to rapturous applause and pints all around.

Electric Hobo posted:Wildly off topic for this thread, but how do you like Dragon Rampant? I'm working on a couple of armies for it, but I don't really know if it'll be worth it. I find it pretty fun, albeit it can be rather swingy. You've definitely got to go into it with a chill attitude and be OK with the fact that some games you'll do nothing but fail your first activation roll several turns in a row, and in other games you'll roll stupid good and your lovely scouts will destroy units of elites without breaking a sweat. Loving those boats and sea serpent BTW, that game's gonna look kicking rad once you've finished it all.

OK I think the reported mistakes have been fixed now. Hopefully Google Sheets saved the edits this time For future reference, when reporting omissions could people please link to completion posts and state what's missing, took me a while to realise that Scowny's issue was the missing Speed Painting from June Re prizes, grats to all the winners! Though one suggestion I would make is to do the drawings about a week into the next month in case any omissions etc. affect the numbers (I'm not sure if they have this time) so I have a chance to make corrections.
