Sometimes it goes too far. Anyone remember Joe Orteza's greenstuff Chaos army? Literally NOTHING in that army could have been discerned as anything close to what it was supposed to represent. THAT sort of scratchbuilding I am against. I also saw a Lego Land Speeder. Yeah.
Was my club the only club where you wrote that sort of thing down? Kinda like spells, write it on your list so it isn't in dispute.
