+++ETL III – DARK ANGELS STRATEGIUM+++

Sons of the Lion,

Last year you have wrestled the big prize from the Templars and brought it to the Rock – its rightful place. However all is not over, not yet… Our rivals now gather in strength, ready to deprive us from what is rightfully ours. Will they succeed or the combined might of the Unforgiven will step up to meet the challenge? The real question is:

ARE YOU STILL PRIMUS INTER PARES? PROVE IT!

++++++++++++++++++++++

Welcome to ETL III and the Dark Angels Strategium! Here is the home for those who want to participate in the ETL putting their weight behind the Codex: Dark Angels!

This year, the Inner Circle is extending a special Challenge to the proud Wolf Lords! In the context of the Bellum Aeternus series, The Shadow Guard is inviting you to measure your Deathwing against the Wolf Guard in Titanas Bellum! So if you intend to paint Deathwing and/or Masters in Terminator or Artificer armour for the ETL you may also enter them (i.e. use the same vow) in Titanas Bellum and support the Deathwing against the Wolf Lords and their retinues!

The rules of ETL III can be found below:

E TENEBRAE LUX III RULES

So what purpose does the Strategium serve? Well, its official function includes the following:

Post vows & declare completions. This is very important as placing the vows elsewhere will create unnecessary confusion and lead to mistakes. Also if you do not report the completion here, I will not update your status.
Participation tables. Here I will be updating the rosters of participation so make sure you see your name listed and that your status is correct - and if not, notify me.
Post your pictures. Remember, we need two – one “before” and one “after” but feel free to post as many WIP pictures as you like!
Weekly updates. This is where I’ll be posting every week an update of the event in general so the frater can keep track of what is going on in the wider picture.

You are also welcome to use this thread to encourage each other, devise strategies, discuss the developments of the ETL and of course ask questions. For the latter you can also PM me.

ALL WHO MAKE A VOW AND ARE LISTED BELOW HAVE EARNED THE RIGHT TO WEAR THE OATH OF MOMENT:

So with no further ado, let’s begin!

A fantastic Gathering of Angels!

The Angles of Death forum is really trying to impress us with the large vows but this is not really a concern - even if completed! What we should be more vigilant about is the Black Templars portion of the forum - they come in strong and they are many - at this stage anyway...

So the answer to this threat is not to try and counter the giga-vows but to build up our participants numbers!

Good to see you Lucifer - Inner Circle leads from the front! :tu:
