By Rob Baer | August 2nd, 2015 | Categories: Armies on Parade, Warhammer 40k, Warhammer 40k Rumors

In 2014, Dom Murray painted this excellent Space Wolves army last year. What will he surprise us with in 2015?

Rally your troops, it’s that time of the year again! The Armies on Parade competition is back.

Think your army has what it takes to be #1? Well stop it by a Games Workshop store on October 24th and battle it out for the prize of best overall!

Anyone can take part in Armies on Parade. All you need to do is build and paint an army and take it in to one of our stores on October 24th – the Parade Day. It’s that simple! The only restriction is that your army needs to fit in an area no larger than 2′ by 2′. Many use this space to create a display board for their entry. It’s a great opportunity to build and paint some scenery and it makes your army look even more epic. Here you can see three entries from last year’s Armies on Parade competition, perfect inspiration for the sort of armies you can create.

Good luck to everyone!
