CONVERSION POLICY
We generally approve of bold conversions and a reasonable use of miniatures from other game companies as a means to improve the visual side of the games. However, please comply with the following rules if you plan to bring heavily converted miniatures or proxies.
Every miniature converted or proxied beyond the “Model Conversions” rules of SR2013, page 2, MUST be submitted to the TO for approval (for more details, see Registration page 4). As a general rule, we accept conversions/proxies that are immediately recognizable for what they are or, barring that, that cannot be mistaken for any other model available to the army.
As a complementary advice, when converting models, try to stick to the general style, gender and/or race of the model, and to keep significant visual landmarks such as weapon or hat/helmet shape. Of course, these landmarks vary from model to model and are sometimes the reason beyond the conversion, so this should not be taken as a hard ruling.
Writing the name of the actual model on the base is also good practice and is very much encouraged.
The TO will do his best to hear the modeller’s case for his models and accommodate as many conversions as possible, while keeping at heart the interests of all gamers present. However, his decision is final, and refused conversions/proxies won’t be allowed during the event. Any player caught using refused or unregistered conversions/proxies will be banned from the event.
Accepted proxies will be published in this thread.
Z.
