Is this where the commissars nip off for tea and biscuits? My Rogue Trader and his collection of ex-guard units will throw their hat in. To start with I introduce the Iron Lady ... I SW1 enter the challenge of E TENEBRAE LUX and vow to complete 1 Stormlord with a pair of sponson (lascannon + t/l heavy flamers) on behalf of the Imperial Guard of total value 530pts on or before August 1st, 2015. Success will bring eternal glory to the regiment and failure will doom me to bear the Badge of the Oathbreaker until the year-end. http://i229.photobucket.com/albums/ee214/SW1-SWC/Mobile%20Uploads/image_zpstrnvtpy8.jpg (Edited in the points cheers Toxichobbit) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let's ignore the fact that it's the only one left in the garage and it's been clamped, and enjoy the tea for what it is. ^_^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Captain Semper stuck me with an Out of Competition Vow. Well, it should be a legal unit from some list... A towering marine, impressive as he may be, is far from being a legal unit! Frankly that's the primary reason for the out-of-competition concept: paint what you like provided it's B&C-legal. You'll still be eligible for the Custos Fidei if you make it and liable for the Oathbreaker badge if you fail. Oh, and you'll be eligible for the Badge of the Artisan too! ;) Edit: Regarding the badge, would you consider a red ribon on the upper right corner? It will certainly look cool!

WarriorFish Posted May 6, 2015 Share Posted May 6, 2015 Reporting my first vow done: I thought the liber might like the small background piece I did for them too:"Gandi's Picketmen" Initially the Arukan were sceptical of the abhuman companies that were sent to join them but this changed rapidly to respect and open arms thanks in no small part to the pickets, foremost of the ratling company attached to the 144th. In their opening battle against a rampaging Ork Warboss known as "orkold boney" Gandi's squad's first shots blew his head clean off along with his attending meganob guards, sending the horde into disarray almost instantly. The Guard command were completely shocked but quickly took advantage of this new tool.This feat earned not only a warm welcome that abhumans would likely not receive elsewhere but had such an impact that the Arukan word for "ratling" became "Gandi". He is quietly proud of this and often enjoys the attention it brings, but his squad haven't had the heart to tell him this is as much due to the word "ratling" being unpronounceable to the Arukan tongue as anything else. I will return to let you know what my second vow is once I've finalised it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Olis Posted May 12, 2015 Author Share Posted May 12, 2015 I almost forgot, brothers, I must add my vow to the Liberite tally. Well, actually... I did forget. It was Scion of Ferrus that reminded me. http://media.moddb.com/images/groups/1/3/2055/22_Shadows_of_Treachery.jpg I, Olis, after much prevaricating and fence-sitting, answer the call of E Tenebrae Lux IV and do declare on the honour of the Liber and my own beloved Caliver that I swear to complete: 1x Alexis Polux 165 points 1x Moritat with twin volkite serpenta, artificer armour and jump pack 135 points 1x 10 man Legion Tactical Squad with nuncio-vox 160 points 1x 10 man Legion Tactical Squad with 3 extra marines, power weapon and artificer armour 200 points 1x 5 man Legion Veteran Tactical Squad with 5 power weapons and artificer armour 185 points 1x 5 man Legion Destroyer Squad with melta bombs, jump packs, missile launcher equipped with suspensor web and rad missiles and 3 phosphex bombs 305 points These units, taken from the four current Horus Heresy Books combine for a grand total of 1150 points. My mission must be to paint these units to a standard I would be proud of, on or before August 1st, 2015. Should I succeed not only will I be surprised, I will bring glory to the Seventh Legion, mighty they are, and the forum I now pledge to. And should I fail, Emperor have mercy upon me, I shall bear the shame and be labelled Oathbreaker until the turn of the next year. Full Vow shot: Alexis Polux: Moritat: Ten Man Squad with Nuncio Vox: Thirteen Man Squad: Vet Squad: Destroyer Squad: (Some squads are still waiting for parts.) Edit - typo.

Conn Eremon Posted May 12, 2015 Share Posted May 12, 2015 With so many vowing for the Liber along the side, I'm curious to see the lore behind these soon to be beautifully painted models. Does anyone have threads they can link to with their lore, or is interested in beginning to develop that lore for some painting inspiration? After all, we're DIYers. It's not just about the paint for us, is it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Conn Eremon Posted May 13, 2015 Share Posted May 13, 2015 A FW style article would be awesome. I've been struggling with my World Eaters Legion, 30th Echelon article for a while now. Hoping to get it done early enough to claim first, at least on the B&C. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
