Post New Competitions replacing NCA
I've been very pleased with the way the Nurgle's Choice Awards have run for the past year and a half.

However, I feel that it is time now to adopt a more traditional approach to competitions.

At present the Nurgle's Apocalypse competition is running till the end of February, and once that is finished the next competition will be announced, my intention being that as each competition ends a new one begins.

A bit sad though...now I will NEVER win that damn thing :P

Unless....can the next one be for a trike-chariot riding nurgle sorcerer? Please??

So, just to get this straight; No more NCA, and no more Malevolent Mission in 2010? So, until March.... all board efforts will be focused Apocalypse?

Control+Z!!!

Maybe a quarterly NCA? That way we don't abandon the papanurgle tradition (and give me and Phill a chance to win the damn thing!), and there will be more entries. Spring/Summer/Fall/Winter Nurgle Choice awards?
Just my seven cents.

NCA's "were" a nice idea, would be sad to see them leave completely.

*edit* Meh, nevermind, my lazy arse answered it's own stupid question.

Post Re: New Competitions replacing NCA
I had an idea for a new competition theme today, which I might as well put here rather than making a new thread. How about a challenge to make a Nurgle character out of any single loyalist miniature (not vehicle) of your choice? The thought was inspired by Lazarus's conversion: http://i592.photobucket.com/albums/tt5/ ... 223159.jpg

There would be loads of scope in this, and people would end up with a cool characterful addition to their army. I had great fun Nurglifying a Techmarine, and it would be cool to have an incentive to pursue another project like that!

Hmmmm, nice idea that Gres...could even make it the SAME model just to see what we all came up with...not posting any WIP pics etc until the finish date when we all post at once...Slightly harder as we would have to see if enough people would be willing to buy it BEFORE we started :)

Post Re: New Competitions replacing NCA
Yeah that's an option, although I think it would be cool to just see where people's ideas take them within the whole range, and the results would be more varied. Also it's probably easier for people to just pick up any old model they like on Ebay rather than all try to buy the same one.

So who would be interested, and what rules would apply? One entry per person or as many as we like? Deadline?

It could be called 'Corrupt a Loyalist' :thumbsup:

Post Re: New Competitions replacing NCA
OOOOR - we could simply make a Corrupt Creations thread for people to post loyalist conversions? I'm unsure if there will be enough immediate interest to get a comp going - if not then we may as well make a thread with no deadline, winner, or one-model limit, which will hopefully be an ongoing thing and inspire others to create things to show.

The thing is I already have an Ebay model that I've started adapting, so I could get the ball rolling with a 'Corrupt a Loyalist' thread and see what others come up with?
