Any news on the legendary category for this competition? I ask because the legendary, the super heavy tank, just dropped today, but it's past the end of the month deadline for march.
Not letting me message creator, email received from MMF but when clicked redeem it says OOPS! SOMETHING WENT WRONG... The user group you are trying to access does not exist or the token has expired. Please contact us.
Got the same from the latest redeem email.
Does the submission for a painted army need to be using only this months models? Or can we use any opr hdf models?
All models for the hdf, this month or any other. That's why the "army category" appears after an army is fully released.
How does one know which models this is for, it just says "from this month's release." Is there a list or some way to determine what has been released this month?
There was a post titled "March Release Overview" from March 4th. It includes a list of the regular releases.
Would the Quest-Vampiric Barbarian be considered a monthly release or a loyalty reward?
Monthly release
Are late additions eligible? For the contest ie the giant beetle and the glade champion for March?
Unfortunately no, we want to stick to this month's releases.
Congrats everyone!
congrats to all the entrants
Congrats to the winner. I've still got a long way to go.
God those owls are fabulous.
So many beautiful Great Owl entries! Great painting all round.
I liked that blue color scheme for the HDF, works so well
Congrats!
