The Winter Equinox has past on Astranar and the Dark Eldar feel they have it firmly in their grips but reinforcements from all directions of the warp have just appeared to land reinforcements for one final push on the planet. Will the dark eldar continue to hold the planet or will there be an usurper. And what is so important about this planet anyways.

-
All Models are fully assembled – no half complete model, tanks have all their guns and doors
-
All Models are fully primed – we don’t want to see a sea of gray and silver here
-
All models have at least 3 colours applied (not including primer) – 3 different stripes of paint do not count, needs to be actually painting primary areas of model
-
Washes and/or highlights have been used to make details standout – this needs to be done on a majority of models
-
50 % or more of the army meets basic tabletop standard – half the army looks to be complete
-
75% or more of the army meets basic table top standard – your army is almost complete good job buddy
-
All models are based (paint or flock) – not a standard gw black base
-
Additional base work completed (paint, grass, drybrushed) – multiple types of flock, the flock is painted, the rims of your bases are painted
-
Do all models have a uniform theme – the models look like they all are from the same army not just same race. Could be company markings, similar colour pallet, if it’s not obvious but you feel it is there then write a narrative to go with
-
You have a display board – something to put your models on when you move table to table, could be pretty and add something to your army when it is on display
