+++E Tenebrae Lux III - Horus Heresy Strategium+++


Recommended Posts

Great to see progress all around guys - keep it up!

 

@ Angels_Absolute: That Knight is AWESOME! Excellent quality and really cool painting scheme! :tu:

 

@ Severoth: You need to give me the points total of your vow... If you are not in a position to calculate it (no access to the relecant books for example) let me know and I (or anybody else) can assist.

 

 

Great stuff guys!

If Severoth can confirm the weapon loadouts I'll work out the points.

 

Think the Helldrake will need to be an out of comp entry as it's not in the HH books. So wouldn't be included in the vow.

 

I Vow, to complete :

night lords VIII legion

 

10x mk IV tac squad

 

1x contemptor dread

 

 

Emperor's children III Legion:

 

20x MK III

 

1x legion praetor coverting into Lord Commander Eidolon

Correct. Only items that can be found the HH books can be vowed here. As such the Heldrake would be an out-of-competition vow or will count-as something of equivalent complexity...

Yes. It's a total of 5 vows. There is no size limit per vow, but you cannot do more than 5...

That's one of the trickier parts of the ETL. Vow too small and finish way too early or vow too big and fail to finish at all. I look at the mega vows some are making and wish them all the luck in the world.

You're right. The limit of 5 vows adds a level of tactical descisions... The general idea is to vow small in the first vow so that you get your momentum going. Then vow larger but with the extra incentive that if you fail on your second vow then your first one is also nullified - so you have something to lose... Also if you find that you're running out of steam or real life is catching up with you, you can always stop thus securing all the completions to that point. You don't have to do 5 vows - you can do up to 5 vows...

 

Some don't care about that and go for megavows... They have all the eggs in one basket. Their choice! :)

Does anybody else get this feeling that someone at FW is watching this thread right now, rubbing their hands together with an evil smile on their face as they relax in a hot tub full of money?  :P

Agreed, there's something very humanly in the pose.

 

Here's some progress on the EC Land Raider & the IW Tactical Squad:

 

Those are some awesome Iron Warriors. Well done. I especially like the pose on the Sergeant with the heavy chainsword. 

 

One problem - they seem a little too clean. Perhaps some weathering would enhance them even further?

These mkIII arms, one of those swords, and a plasma pistol.

The backpack is the only thing frustrating me. I want my model to look unique and have some cool stuff, but not look like I put glue on him and rolled him in a bits box :P
