Pendraken would like to thank all of the companies who have donated prizes to the competition this year, please take a minute to check their websites and see what they have to offer!
And of course, once the main competition is complete, there will be the Aart Brouwer People's Choice Award, sponsored by 'Minibits'!
This Award works by taking any of the remaining entries which received at least 1 point during the judging stage, and putting them to the vote here on the Forum, with the person who gets the most votes winning a £25 voucher for anything from the Minibits website: http://www.minibits.net/ (http://www.minibits.net/) We've also got a bonus prize to give out as well, courtesy of Hawk Wargames, so the winner will also receive a 'Scourge Starter Set' for use with Dropzone Commander!
We've got another little secret feature coming as well, so more details on that to follow! :-$
Thanks for reading, and good luck to everyone!

Yeard? You know what that means in Middle English, do you?
Wot comes after year C?
Yeard
A beard grown out over a year, or that looks scraggly and icky enough to have been grown for an entire year.
Usually one grown for purposes of charity fundraising.
