Paint Duels and Side Challenges Available

Hi All,

The first cut of the Side Duels and Challenges roster is available!

This includes all the material sent to me previously via email, plus that which I was confident I could capture from the comments here on the Challenge blog.

If there are any corrections or additions please send them to challengesideduels@gmail.com and I will amend accordingly. The roster will continue to grow up to and potentially even past the start of the Challenge.

I am aware of several other potential challenges. I say potential because there's been smack talk but nothing significant has transpired in my inbox. These potential challenges include:

  • Fantasy Challenge
  • Washington vs Cornwallis
  • 28mm Pulp Duel
  • 1/1200 Napoleonic Naval Duel

If you're involved in any of these and want to make things all official and tidy please get in touch.

Have I got your side duel listed correctly?

PLEASE review the roster if you have issued or accepted a side duel to ensure I've got you down correctly and that the rules and spoils of the victor are a true reflection of what's been agreed.


Some housekeeping stuff...

1. I'll be updating a couple of times a week, probably around Wednesday and Sunday evenings my time i.e. Australian Eastern Daylight Time. Whenever you score points towards your side duel please email me and it will be added in the next update. Likewise if you win a side duel.

2. I've structured the rules of each side duel to remove any reference to losers. There are no losers here, just winners and the rest. :-)

3. It is assumed that victors have bragging rights. There's no need to include that in the rules of each and every duel! No, really, there isn't.

4. If you have a question please ask! I'll endeavour to answer as quickly as possible and where relevant will post here for the benefit of all.

That's it for now people. Now get back to prepping and virtually slapping one another about the face with a metaphorical gauntlet.

Yours affectionately,
Millsy the Side Duels Wallah

  1. Millsy. As a result of being pipped at the post twice in a row by some dodgy colonial type with no respect for tea, me and Miles have agreed a duel. He will paint Washington and I Cornwallis. Winner by public vote. Prize the other losing General

    1. I accept this challenge and will symbolic dump some tea bags into the toilet in protest of my unfair former British overlords

    1. I'd imagine there are several environmental agencies that would have something to say about that.

  3. Thanks for the update, Millsy! I see I'm in for another thrashing in the duels this year - well, at least I'll be consistent. :)

  4. I completely forgot to enrol this year. Can I still join the Black Powder duel? I'll be also sending you an email. Thanks
