Titanium Dropship 2014 - Prizes

Thanks to a metric crap-load of trouble in my professional and family life, I've run out of time to properly interview each and every sponsor like I intended and managed to do with GZG in between my kids being sick and myself being toilet-ridden for days! With the end of the contest a bit more than two days out, I'll have to  stick to just present the prizes generously offered by most of the industry manufacturers! Deepest apologies about all this.

I've though somewhat on how to distribute prizes among the 9 winners (3 per category). With so many different sub-genres and styles, I didn't want to give anyone a 1st prize I deemed more desirable while the 2nd or 3rd prize would fit better with his existing collection. So I just divided the prizes in 9 similar lots, and will let the winners pick the lot they want. 

The order of choosing will be: 
  • Best entry of the category with the most entries
  • Best entry of the category with the second most entries
  • Best entry of the category with the least entries 
  • Second best entry of the category with the most entries 
  • Second best entry of the category with the second most entries 
  • Second best entry of the category with the least entries 
  • Third best entry of the category with the most entries 
  • Third best entry of the category with the second most entries 
  • Third best entry of the category with the least entries
 Am I making some sense here? 

So without further delay: the prizes...

Prize 1

  • A set of 4 sci-fi cars, a "classic" sports car, and a new Drive Armor (all of them yet to be released) by Darkest Star Games.
  • A 20 USD gift card to be spent on Rebel Minis products. 

Prize 2 



Prize 3


  • A Duxis Battlesuit bundle 1 and a Duxis Battlesuit bundle 2 by The Ion Age. That's 8 of their newest battlesuits (3 close combat and 5 ranged combat ones, 2 pilots, 2 drones and one fallen battlesuit)!
  • A BTR 290 RUSK APC and an infantry pack from Armies Army.
  • UPDATE: a copy of PMC  2640 by Assault Publishing.

Prize 4 


  • Yet to be released (and revealed) miniatures by 15mm.co.uk: namely a Charger APC vehicle, a pack of SFA Elite Troopers, a pack of SFA Jump Troopers and a pack of SFA Jump Sergeants.
  • One copy of Robbin Fitton's Gruntz.

Prize 8
  • A platoon of yet unreleased ARC Fleet Advance Walkers by Critical Mass Games.
  • One copy of Star Army by Two Hours Wargames.

Prize 9
 
Yes, that's more than 500 EUR, more than 400 GBP or nearly 700 USD worth of prizes. But that's not all...
GZG Special Prize
As stated in his interview, Jon from GZG will choose an entry using miniatures he manufactures and offer a special prize on top of its regular contribution to this contest!
The Ion Age Special Prize
Similarly, The Ion Age will throw in an additional "wee" surprise to any winner that uses Ion Age miniatures

That's all we have for now! Go back to painting, you've got two days left to try to win one of those prizes!
