Pbenner Posted May 1, 2014 Share Posted May 1, 2014 I was actually referring to the 34pts... Seems like a cool Codex you're using there... That's scored via the scoring listed by TSG; Did I not do it right? 17 characters at 2 points each is 34; Since they're not a squad they don't get the 1 point per 5 model bonus, unless I can count the Librarius Formation as a squad ;). They're Characters but not named. Paul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pbenner Posted May 1, 2014 Share Posted May 1, 2014 Hahahaha!!! I was in ETL mode! Sorry mate - too much ETL does that to you! Too much ETL? No such thing. I'm pretty sure I got my ETL math right too, I updated my first post in the thread, kicking off with 2215 points in 17 models, ~130 points per model painted to start... And I'm JUST GETTING WARMED UP! Paul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leif Bearclaw Posted May 1, 2014 Share Posted May 1, 2014 Blood of Russ, why are you doing a dozen Chaplains? What do you need so many for? Also, starting to feel this contest is rigged in someone's favour... . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pbenner Posted May 1, 2014 Share Posted May 1, 2014 I don't have a dozen, I have 18, 5 are already painted, I'm waiting on a metal bit to finish the 4th metal one (I need a combi-plasma for it to be complete, if it gets here I'll get it into the competition too!) I like terminators, probably more than is healthy, but meh, I like them. Look back at all my previous vows and you'll not see anything out of sorts, I've done this kind of vow for every competition. Last year I did 40 DWK in a similar time period, plus additional librarians and terminators. I think I've painted a total of 20 of my Deathwing outside of competitions on this board. I've had these models for well over a year, so I wouldn't be crying foul too much, I just got lucky... Paul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My 'rigged somewhat' comment was more directed in general sense, the board for an army with Terminators as one of their major USPs challenging another board to a Terminator painting contest, there's something of an advantage from the outset there.

Remember, this isn't just about Terminators; Artificer Armor and Runic Armor count too. Space Wolves can have a Librarius just like anyone else with Rune Priests. Can Wolf Priests and the like take TDA? might make a good conversion. With my Deathwing, I run (4) Knight Squads, (10) Rank and File, and (3) Command Squads. This is 17 units. I wanted to be able to attach a chaplain and librarian to each unit, so I kit bashed enough to be able to do it, I just a haven't gotten around to painting them all yet. Force Multipliers are fun. Haha. You can see pictures of how far I've gotten so far in my signature. There are two different sets of photos in there. The older ones are from the first round before the knights and the like were done, the other is more current with the Land Raiders and Contemptors. I've got more terminators in the wings as well. As it sits right now, I'll have a Command Squad, another Chaplain, and maybe 2-3 additional Librarians to throw into this ring if I want to. I'll also have (3) more Contemptors and (4) Land Raiders to throw into ETL III if I want to, we'll see how it happens. Paul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Typical wolves crying foul!! :) The contest was created with direct input from the SW moderators and at their suggestion Runic Armour and Artificer Armour were incorporated. Also no unit structure is specified mainly because of the wolfguard set up...so you get points for each model you paint. Can't be fairer than that!

SG This seemed to me like this is what the rules were based around. Obviously there are some shenanigans with this as well; What's to keep the wolves from calling a box of Wolf Guard Terminators, Wolf Guard Battle Leaders and scoring (2) points per for 10 instead of (5)+(1) for the squad? haha. Just curious. I know I've done something similar, but I've got heavy conversion bits into making Librarians and Chaplains, most of which come from well outside the box.
