Hey All,

I have finally decided the winners. This was hard, as all three winners were really excellent. I was very impressed by all three. Enough talk, here they are!

First Place: "Snake Knights vs. Orks" by Jens

Congratulations to the winners and thanks to all of you who entered! I was very happy and surprised with the number of entries. I think I will do this again next year. If you won a prize, please PM me with your mailing address, so that I can send it your way.

Build On,
Josh

I hope the same thing...I mean, my 20 guys aren't really an army, right?

BTW, that gargoyle had them all for lunch...more men...must get more men...

Your battles were cool

However I think you need to make them bigger and more creative like the winners. Congradulations to the winners and see you all next year

unfortunately, me and rosh suffer from a lack of men and peices so therefore the battles were as big as we could make them. there is only so much you can do with a limited amount of men and peices.

Yeah, I think that's what happened with mine. If I had at least 20 more men, some of my battles would have looked a lot better.

the batle contest wasnt based on size though. if that was the case i couldnt have entered

Well it is sort of obvious, a 200 man battle scene will be better then a 20 man battle scene. If only my pics were a little better I might have secured 20th place

But I still have over 200 to use for next year
