[BFG] Discussion / Warp Rift Competition!
« Last post by horizon on August 14, 2023, 08:24:21 AM »
Heya everyone, I am really thrilled to announce the first ever Warp Rift competition!

In Warp Rift 40 (https://specialist-arms.com/bfg/warprift/warprift40.pdf) we published the first article of the Solblade series. For the next article we will introduce some special characters for the Solblade fleets but we also want to introduce some unique Tyranid Bioships! And that is where you come in! For this competition we ask you to write the background and rules for such a unique tyranid creature. Adding drawings or builds will certainly enhance the experience!

As an example you can check such a special Tyranid creature from Wintermans, from https://wintersbioforge.com/product-category/space-bugs/, here: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1CKWbRDsIKurj9nyCLgIupPce_E1v9afP/view?usp=drive_link

To get your gears up Wintersbioforge will make a voucher with a store credit of 100 euro available to the winner! Furthermore, second place will get some awesome painted swarm bases from DoublebaseFanatic and third place will be three printed Gladius frigates:

1st Place: 100 euro store credit at Wintersbioforge
2nd Place: 6 painted Swarm Bases
3rd Place: 3 printed Gladius escort (Soulforge).

Many thanks to both Wintermans, Soulforge and DoublebaseFanatic for providing these!

You can mail your entries at horizonmcr@vivaldi.net or send them to me through Discord or Instagram.

The contest closes on September 30th, 2023. And the winners will appear in Warp Rift 41 (october).

The winners will be selected by Wintermans, DoublebaseFanatic and me.

I'd go with hounds, boars and/or panthers.

Usually I don't post WIP's, but today I need some help. In the old edition's WHFB armybooks there were wood elves animal keepers or beastmasters. Their regiment consisted of a master and some different animals/beasts. So, the idea is to proxy a Wild Hunt regiment by 3 stands with beastmasters. In fact it will be much better than 4 equal units of deer-riders.
Which 3 stands do you prefer to choose?
1. Hounds from celtic range.
2. Boars.
3. Small bears.
4. Big bear.
5. Panthers.
6. Wargs 1 from vampire range.
7. Wargs 2.
The unit consists of 3 stands, so please try to choose 3 different numbers. 
Beastmasters are replaceable.

Required minimum is ready. 10mm version of a highborn will act as my general. One of the best miniatures GW ever produced: those hair on the face, such contemptuous glance, flowing cloak. Why not Orion? He remained in Athel Loren and did not follow the Lost Kindred.
Waywatcher noble is a cheap companion, only 80pts. However I feel I will include her just for the stern owl on the base.

Heya  everyone!

This time I am really happy to announce the release of Warp Rift 40! Yes, another milestone has been reached. Awesome that this is still possible after all those years. Yay, thanks to all readers & contributors!

This issue brings the Fourth Tyrannic War into Battlefleet Gothic with Solblade. Some new special rules give you the oppurtunity to attempt special scenarios in which only a few elite vessels need to stop the Tyranid horde! With swarm bases to ease the movement time. And if you don't have the miniatures paper cutouts have been added. So, please have some fun with that and get back to us and tell your tales (and ideas!).

But there is more with a painting guide to just released Ork Starter fleet; campaign additions for the Tau, competition winners and more!

Very nice! Where did you get them please, as miniatures or STLs?
Many thanks! Those STLs belong to me. I thought about making an account on Cults3d or Myminifactory, but first I need to reanimate my PayPal. Moreover some other remixes wait for their time to be painted. =}

New regiment and they are very special guests here. Before current Revolution-edition Warmaster wood elves list requires 3 units of archers per 1000pts. How could I make them different and interesting? Hey, armybook said that Lumpin Croop's Fighting Cocks used to join wood elves. Moreover I had them in my 28mm WE army. Only one problem was here: WarpMinis made halflings with crossbows, but I needed archers. And today I have unique halflings! They can count as ordinary archers (who can stop me?), or they can be Famous Mercenaries with fresh version of rules. After Forest Dragon's minis they feel simple detailed, but it is still hard to paint orange jackets.

I do not clearly remember, will try to search in history logs. Nevertheless stumps and logs are so generic, there are a LOT of them. No need to look for particular ones.
Larger one is called 'old tree spirit', STL is free: https://www.myminifactory.com/object/3d-print-old-tree-spirit-56232
Smaller one is from Drunken Dwarf: https://www.myminifactory.com/object/3d-print-stump-206197 Collection 'Dark Forest'. I have also taken ents from there, they are easily scaled to 10mm treemen and treekin.
Just like props, there are so many different ents and other walking trees, they are so easy to scale to 10mm (they have no thin parts), so after an hour you will think 'which of them do I want to include in my army this week' instead of 'where can I find unusual minis'.
