But the Wolves are known for their tall stories - but can they deliver? Let me put this way: You complete this and you deserve a Saga of your own! hahahaha!!! @ Arez: Are you officially adding to your vow? Or is it a statement of intent? If it is an official addition I suggest you edit your initial vow and drop me a PM to confirm! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Captain Semper Posted May 16, 2012 Author Share Posted May 16, 2012 That's cool! So any other Wolves to step forward? You don't have to be as loud as Russ Brother 92 - smaller vows are also acceptable... But then again your personal sagas will also be... how can I put this... acceptable? :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mactire Posted May 16, 2012 Share Posted May 16, 2012 question for captain semper. i dont game just collect so when i model i often mess around with weapon loadouts.im just wondering if this would make an entry illegal. i would enter my vow based on the legal codex points and hope youd disregard the weapons for example i plan on doing a grey hunter pack but some may have twin swords/axes and a sniper rifle however i would only be classing them as regular grey hunters boltgun/ccw. if this would be illegal let me knowas i would then try to pledge something else. also can pics be posted on this thread or must you set up a link as per the lpc. thanks in advance ands ;) on the challenge idea Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Captain Semper Posted May 17, 2012 Author Share Posted May 17, 2012 That's great guys! I see the Wolves are making a stand - and with some hefty vows too - good! @Keith: I have made a ruling that you can only benefit from upgrades that have some form of physical representaion on the mini. So, Mark of the Wolfen might be possible but the Saga? I'd say edit your vow to exclude the Saga and you're good to go! ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Count as" is fine. As long as you clear the what counts as what and cost them properly you should be ok. Make your vow with that in mind and we can fine tune it afterwards.

I take it that will apply to every costed item in every Codex which doesn't need a full WYSIWYG? Digital weapons for example. A Saga is what truely makes our heroes stand out from other chapters.

I wouldn't want to tell a Wolf Lord his Saga counts for nothing because I can't see it. And trust a Wolf to want something for nothing! ;) But you are correct. It is a ruling made after the rules were posted. The thing is that we want to have point-gains and effort to be somewhat related. Although all armies might have upgrades that are not represented visually, their costs might differ wildly. And for these points entrants would do no effort at all. So I decided against. See the ruling below (I hope I explained the spirit of the law as a proper wording would have to take the size of a Codex to get it complete ;) ). Also, since I'm here, I assume that upgrades that have no physical representation (for example, Veteran Skills for certain Black Templar units) can't be used to add points to those units that can take them. Is this correct? You are right. benefits fron items that have no physical represntation cannot be gained. However there are situations (like Terminator honors for example) that a simple purity seal will qualify as WYSIWYG. Or appropriate painting can depict a Mark of Chaos. Also a seperate entry is a seperate entry - So if someone enters a Master of Sanctity (as opposed to a Reclusiarch) he benefits from difference in points - i.e. there is no reason why you should go for cheaprer options if you can achieve better point count with the more expensive counterparts. Same for, say, power armoured Interrogator Chaplains vs. normal Chaplains for the DAs. If you say it's Interoggator then that's what he is. I look fwd to see how the Mark of the Wolven's gonna look like! (Good luck with that Keith!). also @Capt Semper - when you have time free can you update the table with me own pedge? thanks brother Done! Sorry about that Russ Brother. The tables are a :cuss to use - have you ever tried? Just make a "quote" reply to view the code... And the Wolves are not even the forum with the most vows... To add insult to injury, every time I update the table the whole first post gets corrupted! so I need to delete all and copy/paste all over. That is for any change in the table no matter how small.

Captain Semper Posted May 18, 2012 Author Share Posted May 18, 2012 You have a point. Vows do not win the competition, completed points do! Furthermore the opportunity to add more vows also gives hope to dedicated groups of painters. Also overconfidence and arrogance might be the doom of many that might fail subsequent vows thus nullifying their previous completions too. However getting people involved is also important. So come Wolves of Fenris (there are wolves on Fenris, right? B)) make a stand and show the weaklings who's boss! :P EDIT: The DAs now exceed 10k...
