Stay tuned for an upcoming contest, sponsored by tfn, with prizes provided by Miniatures Market in St Louis. All will be revealed soon...



Of course I'll repeat the above question.... online?


And as far as Clone Wars goes. I love the set... the new 40 piece format makes it so much easier to collect. Buy one case you get all the rares and 4 of the 8 very rares. Played a 200pt match the other day with GGDAC and the lancer. Whew... the lancer is tough. A sure bet GGDAC squads will be the team to beat for a little while.

While that would rock and is something to think about for the future, not quite what we had in mind. I should have the details up tonight or tomorrow (hopefully tonight). I'll link here when it's up.

Disrupt can kill Droid squads, even with the lancer droid.

International residents are accepted. Shipping isn't free, but they do ship internationally.

Shipping is only free to the continental US for orders over $75. The contest is open to anyone world wide though happy

Sweet. I'll have to think of a scenario and find time to write it up when I have some free time for writing and thinking.

I have a couple questions:

1) There are one or two people in my Fan Force that are under 18 but want to participate. Is it OK if they create a scenario and give it to one of our adult members who either don't play Minis or don't have 3 ideas for scenarios to submit it for them?

2) Let's just say I create a scenario all by my self, and when I submit it, it is suspiciously similar to another scenario that either WOTC or some other fan created. Would that scenario or I be disqualified? Whatever the case, I guess I have another question: is there anywhere online that has a good compilation of a bunch of previously-created scenarios so that I can avoid doing the same thing?

I'd prefer if a parent were to submit the scenarios for them and say that it's for underaged player Jon Doe.

If the scenario was insanely similar (as in directly copy and paste words or just change the wording a bit) to one I've seen on the net or WotC created (and I have nearly all if not all of the printed ones) then you would be disqualified. But we realize that there are only so many different things you can do with the battle of Hoth (for example) if your scenario shares some similarities with another no a huge deal. WotC has some of their site but there isn't a place with a bunch of fan created ones that I know of. Also, if this comes up I do plan to talk to the person who submitted a scenario before automatically disqualifying it. Give him/her a chance to tell his/her side of the story.

What if the scenario was a joint effort between John Doe and an of-age player? Would it be OK if said of-age player submitted it under their name and share the prize if they won?

At least a week or two. We're not quite finished grading all the scenarios yet then we need to play test the top few.
