As always, 48 hours to vote on May's theme. This month, your options are:


Playing Tricks: From trickster gods to decieving dregs, through illusion magic and advanced camo-tech, a little sleight of hand goes a long way wherever you find yourself. Your entry should feature minis known for their deceptive or tricksy nature or skillset.

Mayhem: While some lose their heads in the carnage and chaos of battle, others revel in it, and in the mayhem they can wreak there. From wild berserkers to mad Orks, your entry should feature models who are capable of causing sheer, unbridled chaos and mayhem on the battlefield.

Lead From The Front: This theme is for those who pair tactical acumen with martial skill, leading their troops into battle as both commander and warrior. Your entry should feature models that possess the skills to both fight the foe head-on, and to lead their larger forces to victory.

The Underdogs: "Soldier, grab this spear/axe/lasgun/sharp stick and get out there!" Common footsoldiery naturally forms the bulk of many armies, but often these folks find themselves hopelessly outmatched by the horrors they face. Nonetheless, they hold the line, and this theme is for them. Your entry should feature the most unlikely to be heroes, be they destined to punch well above their weight against a mighty foe, or simply die in droves catching sword strokes and bullets so that their more elite peers can do their work.

Decisions, decisions. I can find something for each of them, but I'm feeling like none of them at the moment.

I think I'll have to come back tomorrow and cast my vote then.
