QC3HQ - Summer Contest - CONGRATULATIONS SHIFTREX

[Dr.Goomonkey]

QC3 is back, baby! Even in the darkest hour, as Age of Annihilation was annihilated before it even came of age, there were sparks of hope in the hearts of HeroScapers everywhere. HeroScape had been rumored to be dead before, but like the QC3, we all know that was a great exaggeration. The QC3 is not dead yet, and soon you'll get to be a part of this great resurrec-, er, resurfacing of QC3!

There will be another announcement at the beginning of February with rules for this contest, but if you sniff around you might see what I'm hinting at as far as the format goes.

Ooh, exciting.

[Dr.Goomonkey]

Drumroll please! ...

Well, here we are. A new contest! I already used up most of my funny juices (goos?) on the front page, so let's get right to business.

This time around, we are revisiting the Phantom Knights, and looking at what they were like before they were printed on green, translucent plastic. Other than that, it is up to you to do what you want (as long as it's unique ).

The original figures are Archfiends #21 Ragnara, Psychic Warrior, Dragoneye #08 Stalwart Paladin, and Deathknell #16 Dark Traveler, all from DnD sets from a few years back but they seem to be reasonably available online.

Spoiler Alert!

You can either submit a Unique Squad, or 3 Unique Heroes (if you really want to make 1 hero and a 2-figure squad I won't stop you ... I guess). Please enter by March 1st so that you can be included in the poll on the second.

Rules:

1. Entries must be sent to me via PM.

2. Keep your entry anonymous while the contest is running.

3. Only 1 entry per member.

4. You may not vote for your own entry as the winner (even if it is the best), and you must vote in the poll if you enter.

5. You must use the miniatures named.

6. You may make either a Unique Squad, or Unique Heroes for these minis.


Other Clarifications:

Spoiler Alert!

All contestants will be included in the poll if there are 15 or fewer entries, if there are 16-19 I will decide on a Top Ten, and if there are 20 or more I will decide on a Top Fifteen. The poll will run for 1 week, after which there may be a runoff poll in the event of a tie.

You may reuse your old customs

You may enter if you do not make a card for your unit. If you submit the entry early enough I will make a card for you. Also, it's pretty easy to make your own, just use @Xorlof 's awesome card creator and one of the many free photoshop programs (I use GIMP, now).

If you want to change your entry you can, just PM me before I post the poll.

Character bios are allowed, and they might tip the scales in your favor so I recommend them.

Anonymity is not that all that serious. You may remember my blunder a few contests back when all of the card URLs had the creators' names in them (actually I did that for a couple before someone mentioned it). Once the poll comes up, I would prefer to have lively conversation than to have intact anonymity. Don't say which is yours, obviously, but also don't worry if you think your attempt to hide which one is yours went terribly.

Further note on anonymity, you could even play online games with them to playtest, just don't share them publicly. Don't make anonymity get in the way of anything at all, it's kind of a joke. I'm actually very serious about how much of a joke it is.

All feedback is welcome.

Excited to be a part of this contest! Fun prompt to design for!

I also wanted to join but was just too busy. I liked what y'all came up with and I look forward to the next one!

[Arch-vile]

Nice, these are always fun!

[Dysole]

I wrote something up. Haven't finished the final thing. Don't love it but I think it works. Ping me if you haven't heard anything from me by Monday or Tuesday.

~Dysole, making sure she gets in

I can do ya one better! The, erm, council has come to the decision to extend the contest entry time by 1 week.

Have fun composing your entries! Get 'em in by July 19th.

[Dr.Goomonkey]

Last day to get those entries in! Everything is due by midnight tonight (which really does mean midnight, I'm in the west coast). No more time to pretend you'll do it tomorrow!
