Feringhi cloaking tech is the best money can buy if you can't steal it first. When you say they don't have it, Speedy, doesn't that mean you've never seen it? That argument is solid confirmation of the initial claim.

I thought Mike's post was "Procession of Japanese leaders publicly apologising to China for certain unpleasant events still in living memory."

That said, the Ferengi are a brave warrior people who pay generously for these endorsements, and their captains would never be found hiding under the bridge,except in combat or hostile entity takeover situations. And tax audits, I suppose.

I'm getting a lot of "content not viewable in your region" messages on posts.  :(

Yes. I think these entries should be excluded.


They're bound to be better than mine

Whether they are or not, they are unlikely to win, as they will not get any votes from the UK!  ;D

A quick question about categories please.

With just one 'Fantasy & SciFi' category, does that means a Fantasy chariot is not eligible for the vehicle category, nor a Fantasy cavalry unit in the 'Mounted' category? Or are they allowed?  Thank you  :)

:-\

My gut feeling is that they'd be allowed.....but you really need to wait for Leon to say "Yay" or "Nay".

Anyone remember if this has cropped up before ?
I'll do this later

Well.....
A quick look at last year's comp shows a barbarian riding a mammoth in the mounted category and a sci-fi APC in the vehicle catagory.

From 2021-ish, so I think putting those types of entries in said categories would be okay.

Do Elephants belong in the mounted, or other class?

How about camels?

Both of those would go in the mounted category


Additionally, what would people's opinions be on entering a command base that was painted in February last year, and entered into that competition (2025), to be included in an army for the army category. I am happy enough to exclude it, but was hoping people (Leon in particular) might weigh in on their opinions.

I found this from a previous year (2023 I think) so I'm guessing this would still be the case but thought I'd double check.
Quote from: LeonI think that's OK, if you've entered them as individual units last year but they're now part of a whole army entry with lots more stuff, then I think that counts as a 'new' entry.

That seems to settle it – thank you.

I have a pack of Giant Wolves to enter... Should they go in the 'Mounted' or 'Fantasy & Sci Fi' category please?

I would say Fantasy & sci-fi, unless they have riders, in which case I think it would probably be up to you which category they would go into.
Assuming they have riders, I would make the decision based upon my other entries, as the fewer items you enter into each category, the better your chances of doing well is, as you won't split your votes.
