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


Recommended Posts

That dreadnought is very impressive. But are you sure you don't want to add some blood smears to the power claw? 

 

I mean, what's the harm of adding a little blood... then a lot of blood... then BLOOD FOR THE BLOOD GOD- :P

@ Max Power: Yes, it's fine assuming that 50pts is a fair estimate. I'll check later on to make sure but other than that please go ahead. When you adjust your vow let me know so I will do the same in the first page.

Lol, I am not a fan of blood splatter on my models. Just a personal thing, I like my guys to look like they have freshly taken to the field. Not sure why, I may add some Blood later on, but not as part of the vows for now. Glad you like the dread, I loved building him up. I may try to obtain another and make him a dual CCW guy and this one will eventually be a mortis contemptor.

 

Thanks for looking!

 

Keep up the good work everyone!

I think the little things (the chains, skulls, and the banner) make for a great model. I say that you NLs definitely capture the spirit of the Legion very well - shadowy figures coming out of our worst nightmares. 

 

I paint my WEs as I pictured them after reading Betrayer - a wave of filthy ceramite and bloody steel rolling over whatever opposition that is before them like a howling tsunami. 

 

Just finished painting my WE Praetor actually. Hope to finish the base tomorrow and call it an early week - life is once again getting in the way of my hobby...

Ooooo ... What models are you using for the warhounds?

 

Vinyl ED-209 from Robocop.

IV. Legion planetwide broadcast: "Your world has refused to declare allegiance and bow to the emperor of mankind. Accept your defeat by the hands of the IV. Legion immediately or see your fortresses and bulkwards reduced to rabble and dust. There will be no further warnings. You have 29 seconds to comply"

@ Nehekhare:

 

Congratulations on your completion! The first page is updated accordingly... :tu:

 

However I have an issue with the follow-up vow. I'm not familiar with the models themselves but from the picture they seem considerably less complex compared to an actual Titan. As such I believe it's unfair to award the same amount of points as with someone who will work an actual Wahound with much higher interenal and extrernal detail.

 

Unless I have this totally wrong (and they are indeed complex models), I propose a points' penalty of 1/3 (they look pretty big) to a total of 1,000pts.

 

Deal?

I The Or answer the call of E TENEBRAE LUX and vow to complete a legion veteran tactical squad with a lightning claw, plasma gun, volkite serpenta and melta bombs from Horus heresy: Betrayal to a total value of 185 points on or before August 1st. Success will bring eternal glory to the Sons of Horus and failure will doom me to bear the Badge of Shame until the year-end and spend the next millenia in the Eye of Terror.

Ok I've been putting this off long enough so now it's time to do a very un-eighth legion thing and stick my head above the parapet into the hail of fire. My inspiration has been well and truly rekindled thanks to some very sage advice from both Mark Bedford and Keith Robertson so, let us begin

 

Lasiurus, Duke of Blades, The Red Judge, Trueborn of the VIII Legion answer the call of the Horus Heresy Subforum and vow to complete for E Tenebrae Lux the following units:

 

Praetor - Paragon Blade, Volkite Charger, Iron Halo, Trophies of Judgement plus extras - 200pts

Librarian - Artificer Armour, Refractor Field, Trophies, Mastery Level 3 - 165pts

Command Retinue - Chainglaives, Rhino - 165pts

Apothecary - Chainglaive, Artificer Armour - 65pts

Terror Squad - Bolters, Lightning Claw, Artificer Armour, Melta bombs - 275pts

Terror Squad - Volkite, Artificer Armour, Melta bombs - 233pts

Terror Squad - Chainglaive, Plasma Pistol, Artificer Armour, Melta bombs - 240pts

Terminator Squad - Chainfist, Power Fist, Combi-Melta, Reaper, Lightning Claws, Thunder Hammer, Teleportation Transponder - 257pts

Skyhunter Squadron - Multimelta, Chainglaive, Melta bombs - 225pts

Sicaran - Lascannons - 175pts

 

Should I fail to make good on this vow either on or before August 1st 2014 17:00 GMT I shall bear the badge of the oathbreaker and shall endure a period of exile from the B&C for a period of no less than a month and no greater than three months as the frater of the HH subforum decree

Nicely done brothers. Always pleasant to see more people joining the cause. :D

 

Is it me or does B&C have one of the largest Heresy-era Night Lords fanbases anywhere?

Welcome to The Or (nice! ;) ) and Balthamal!

 

Sayu Balthamal, I'm calculating your vow to be 2,000pts. There is only one minor issue - the mastery level of the Librarian... How do you intend to represent it? Remember only items that can be physically represented on the mini count. Now you can to come up with something to denote senior librarian or feel free to add something for the same amount of points...

 

Well done HH - you still have the momentum some of your rivals have run out of... :)

 

UPDATED TO THIS POINT!

I just finished vow #2, but will have to post pics in the morning. Then it is on to work on the assembly of #3. So a few weeks off from painting and instead focus on assembly! Cannot wait!

I haven't started painting anything yet... I've just rebuilt my Moritat and working out which jump pack to give him (regular 40k one or buy a mk2 one from somewhere..)
