jsalyers 887 Report post Posted January 25 Talon Games is hosting a virtual CavCon the last weekend in March. I'm working on a tourney list for the virtual tournament. In plain English, I'm making a CAV list more as an exercise in list creation. Still, it is a fun exercise and I plan to paint it up and post both my progress and thoughts about the list as I get ready for the virtual convention. I need to paint some models for inclusion in the upcoming CAV Journal of Recognition (JoR). I also need to paint a force for VCavCon. Why not combine the two and include a JoR model in my force...? Seems good to me...? So, I looked through the models in the JoR and chose the Outlaw. I love running multiples of the same model - the uniform look to a squad appeals to me. So, I added 4 Outlaw's to my list and included a Razor so the squad has access to EST and ECM. I needed a primary squad and I love tanks... so I chose 4 Poltergeist's and another Razor. We're using the CavCon tournament rules from 2020 (which never happened) which limits me to 12 models so I added a specialist squad with 2 Shadow's for their APA2 (and some decent guided missiles). That's it for my list. It has a good amount of guns, some solid fire support and a decent amount of ECM/APA. Any suggestions, or comments about my choices...? I'll post pictures of my progress as I get my models assembled and painted. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jsalyers 887 Report post Posted February 16 Sorry it took so long to get to this... life is busy. I got my models cleaned up as best I could. Mold lines are my bane. I always find them after I've done some important painting. I'm going for a bright yellow scheme with some black and purple accents. I've got the base yellows down. Next step is an orange oil wash - wish me luck. Once the oil is dry I'll use my airbrush to re-establish the highlights. span widget 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Maredudd 2928 Report post Posted Sunday at 06:23 PM What are the guidelines for the Virtual CAVCON tournament? As I have next to no actual play experience I am still working on a Force Group and all I can remember was a 4500 TVP limit and C3 points. I am using the FM app to create my FG and I assume that any FG I create with FM would be legal (if not particularly effective ). FM lists 'bonus' points. Are they included in the guidelines? 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Are they included in the guidelines? 4500 points, 12 models max, 2 squads min, C3 points, no faction doctrines, no infantry, no model customization (SAs, etc). I think that covers it. Got some work done on my. Cockpit glass. I'm still struggling to pick an accent color and where to put it. Any suggestions...? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
