lol are we really debating over a single point?

You guys realize that the points will be easily into the thousands?

Seriously, good idea of only magnetizing 1 side. We use cheap nail heads cut off and glued on.
I got 5 stiches from my first 40k model. Rather not do a repeat visit to the ER.

What nails do you use? I have used nails before but using wire cutters send the head flying and using a dremel make pretty sparks. Than my wife walked in......

Just being honest and Im hoping that more models will be painted from this so going crazy here is not the end goal. Painted models is.
In an act of kindness and respect, please respond to PMs one way or the other with in a timely manner.

I understand that, but someone can assemble and entire army of 3000+ figures and still paint them over the year (some people would rather just assemble any way). Look at what has been submitted so far lol. You did extra work on a single model, 1 more point isn't going to break the scales :D.

1 plastic chaos Gorebeast Chariot.

6 points? 1 or the rider, 1 for the driver, 2 for the chariot and 2 for the gorebeast. The chariot and the gorebeat are easily twice the size of an infantry model and about the same size as a terminator.
Heh, I was called a Grognard. ;-)

I've assembled (and painted) a Gorebeast chariot once. It's not the easiest to do so I would agree with 6 points. I also wish you luck painting that fully assembled!

Who's saying it's staying fully assembled?

Finally getting some points on the board:

55 lower infernals, 4 gargoyles. All at 1 pt each, for 59 total.

These won't get secured to a base until they are done.

I like the larger model trees as giving more dimension, there

I expect honesty about models' conditions, thank you.

If I don't respond in a day or two, please check back, I've forgotten-sorry.

Are there any points established for buildings yet? For the last 3 weekends I've worked on some Sarissa buildings for a "WWII paris" table we're putting together at a buddy's house. I have some suggestions for when I post them, but was inquiring to see if anyone had considered buildings yet.

Lower rating? You ship first.

I think what this situation needs is some imagination.

I'm sure buildings wouldn't be an issue. We would need to categorize them (tiny, small, medium, large, etc).
