After the three finalists were selected the open voting commenced, and now a winner has been announced.   Congratulations to Paul whose Kingdom of Britannia platoon clinched victory - your voucher is on its way to you. It looks like Paul, known as Thargor to the Spartan Games Community, has already decided to spend it on the upcoming Covenant of Antarctica Expansion Sets! Uneasy Ceasefire and more Dystopian Wars scenarios More scenarios to add to those available in our official campaign guides Game designer James (Bunnahabhain on the forum) has been working on a number of exciting scenarios for Dystopian Wars to be played across one or more theatres of war - some almost ready to go and others with details to be fleshed out. Go take a look and feel free to try some of them out in your own games, and be sure to let us know how you got on. Firestorm Armada at the Sanctuary Gaming Centre  Are you ready for a brutal weekend of fleet engagements in the war torn Firestorm Galaxy? The Sanctuary Gaming Centre in Sutton-in-Ashfield, UK is a fantastic venue with a hobby store and an incredible 44 gaming tables, and it will play host to Firestorm Armada GT 2016. This event will take place over two days this coming March, pitting 800 Point Patrol Fleets against one another across five gruelling scenarios. The final tournament pack is coming soon, but you can book your place now.  Sharing the Firestorm Planetfall hobby The Spartan Games Community Newsletter is always a great opportunity for us to share some of the very best recent paint jobs we've seen. This month, we'd like to share Kuzao's ghostly Relthozan force with Ba'Kash aerial allies. We really love the mix of metal and green tones which give an eerie and evil look to the miniatures. Kuzao used a black base followed by Vallejo grey primer. Vallejo air duck egg green and a subtle white highlight were used for the glowing areas. A heavy green wash was then applied to the whole miniature, followed by a metallic green felt pen for edge highlights. The miniatures are then finished with very heavy varnishing - absolutely necessary as the metallic pen rubs off at the slightest touch.
