I was reading some rules last night, and parts of it went pretty over the top - the Goth teen-angst melodrama of the 40K universe was just a bit thick. And I had an idea for a silly little contest.
- The Warhammer FauxK Contest
- You are to write a rule, paragraph, publicity blurb for a new ruleset for the Warhammer 40K universe. It can be any kind of rules you like. Pogo-stick jousting, submarine warfare, sumo wrestling with skullz, it's entirely up to you. Just give us your best Faux Warhammer.
- How To Enter
- There are three steps to enter. First, of course, you need to come up with the funniest, most outrageous over-the-top bit of FauxK. Second, you simply post it here in the News Talk. Third, you must include your email address in your entry. (You may spell it out to stump the spam bots.) Finally, there is a 50-word limit (and yes, I will be counting).
- The Prize
- First prize is a $100 USD gift certificate good at Scale Creep. This is good for anything in the store and on special orders (I can get lots of nifty stuff like 40K, AT-43, Rackham, Reaper, etc.). Second prize is to be mercilessly crushed beneath the treads of the winner's Ultra-Doom-Blaster-Chariot, reduced to a mere jelly, spread on the Emperor's bagel and devoured. There is no third place. The Emperor does not tolerate mediocrity!
- The Rulez
- You may enter as often as you like. You must include your email address in each entry. You may cheer for your personal favorite. You may decry those who fail to entertain you. The winner is decided in a process so cunning, so sophisticated, so technologically advanced and so shrouded in secrecy that to simpletons it will appear as if I simply picked my favorite. In case of a tie, the two winners will engage in a single elimination death duel with SunBlasterNovaChain pistols at 30 paces. Survivor take all.
- Deathline
- The contest ends exactly 72 hours after it first appears on TMP.
