4. Models have do to be donated and sent in, they will then go through a voting process by a select team including
GW staff at Nottingham.

The Competitions will be split into three catagories:
1. Best Marine.
2. Best Vehicle.
3. Best Command Sq Figure (only 7 available so prepare to go all out!)
Please bear in mind, if you ask to create the company captain then it doesn’t have to be the
GW captain box set, you can build your own out of bits, be creative, the idea of this project is to give every marine total individualty!
and lastly, If you want to take part, private message me with:
-What company positions/figures you wish to do ie: Tactical Sqd 1, Sgt, Mne 1,2,3,4 etc
- If you want in on the Competition.Don’t forget you can do more than one mini if you want to increase those odds of winning, I definitely will be.

Good Day and Good Luck!
