It would be nice if you could do a scenic/ diorama/ display style base catagory next time.
"To be eligible for entry the miniatures must be from a tabletop gaming range at 25mm-32mm scale, including wargames, miniatures games and miniatures from board games."
Does this include only miniatures from the Tabletop Games category on Mighty Ape?
If not, then what qualifies as a "tabletop gaming range"?
Hi Chris, by "tabletop gaming range" we mean a range of miniatures which have been designed for tabletop gaming. This includes miniature wargaming, board games miniatures & role playing game miniatures etc. It does not include the likes of scale models or figures which are designed purely for display.
Hello Mighty Ape,
I'm About to throw together some Kastelan Robots and a Data Smith for my Warhammer 40k army. Would this fit into the infantry squad category? Or would I just enter one Robot as a vehicle?
Cheers
Hi Thomas, 1 Kastelan Robot would be an entry in the monster category as its on a 60mm base :)
For the vehical catigory, would the T47 speeder from Star wars legion count? Or would that be too large?
Yes that would be fine Thomas :)
Can 3rd party miniatures be entered? I have a couple of great creature caster minis.
As long as they fit within the scale guidelines and are intended for tabletop gaming that is no problem :)
Hi can i do a FW primarch for one of these categories?
FW Primarchs would fit into the Monster category:)
Can I enter an imperial knight or armiger
Would a GW Imperial Knight be entered into the vehicle category?
Yes
Can I enter a single miniature into the single infintry catigory if it has already been entered as part of a squad in the infintry squad catigory?
