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


Recommended Posts

Well, looks like the postal service won't cooperate, so best move on to Vow #2 and add stuff later (maybe for Vow #3...)


 


I, Carlson793, Master of Markings, rise to the challenge of E TENEBRAE LUX and vow to complete a 'Dreadnought only' XVIIIth Legion force of consisting of the below units and with a total value 1,125 points, on or before August 1st, 2015. Success will bring eternal glory to XVIIIth Legion and the Age of Darkness forum; failure will doom me to bear the Badge of the Oathbreaker until the year-end.


  • Cassian Dracos (Bray'arth Ashmantle conversion)
  • Ancient Grenn (Contemptor, Kheres, CCW w/meltagun)
  • A Deredeo Dreadnought (Anvilus, Aiolos, Saturnyne Rams markings)
  • A Mk IV/V Dreadnought (Plasma Cannon, CCW w/Meltagun, Saturnyne Rams markings)
  • A Dreadnought Drop Pod (Saturnyne Rams markings)
  • Lord Chaplain Nomus Rhy'tan (minor Chaplain Xavier conversion)

Into the fires of battle!


Unto the anvil of war!

I'm a little short on time and unpainted models but I can try.

I Sabadin rise to the challenge of E TENEBRAE LUX and vow to complete 1 Contemptor Mortis with dual twin-linked autocannons from Heresy book 2 of total value 165 pts on or before August 1st, 2015. Success will bring eternal glory to the VIII legion and failure will doom me to bear the Badge of the Oathbreaker until the year-end

Not...quite. Buuut, that postal service cooperation I mentioned involves another Deredeo (with both Anvilus and Plasma), as well as a second Salamander Contemptor and a Death Guard Contemptor (love that Mk III armor look, and the few DG markings are easily accessible and removed) - they'll be cobbled together so I don't have two identical body Salamander Dreads. Still, that'd be, what? seven of the nineteen dreads needed for Dreadhead.

Small update today, but a good one. Carlson has made a second vow, well done to you brother for stepping up again, and we welcome yet another brother to the Team. Sabadin, come, join the fray. We warmly welcome you, for good reason. ;)

 

With those two vows, we have hit a real milestone - one hundred vows! All before recruiting has even ended! Sabadin, well done to you, you are our 100th vow. That's a cause for reward, I think. We have two, maybe three days left of recruiting - can we break 100,000 points before the end of Week 4? Yes, it may very well be another eight and a half thousand points but just three near-maximum vows can cover that distance no problem. I know that's really just wishful thinking, however it does nicely illustrate what we can do to go that extra distance, to cement our lead. Eight and a half thousand points. If we can bring in just a few more vows, we can really send a message to our rivals. That would be nice. ^_^

  • Pledged total: 91,623 points 
  • Completed total: 13,658 points 
  • Vows completed: 16
  • Completion rate: 14.9%
  • Number of vows: 100
  • Average vow: 916 points

I believe that message was best said by one Mr. Short Round back in 1984 (paraphrasing, of course): "They no nuts, they crazy!"

So, hard at work on some of my vow aaand... Thought a WIP of one of the Rhinos I have been working on would do. 

Here we go; Introducing the "Pallas" pattern Rhino:

My Land raider is finished and with it, my pledge! This thing was a blast to paint, especially after powering through 60 space marines, a big tank was just the kind of reward I needed! biggrin.png

I´ll make another pledge later, with at least two knights and a small detachment of Imperial Militia, but I´m gonna wait a bit and see if there is anything else I wanna add to that one. happy.png

That is one hell of a collection of Contemptors, frozenfoods. Add any more and you could have a football team on your hands. tongue.png

He's just trying to start an arms race with me and Slips to see who the first to field a Salamanders Dreadhead list in its entirety. He's got the lead, it seems...for now msn-wink.gif

I hope you like it. I'm currently building my contemptor, which will be vow 2. I'll pledge it once it it built.

I know the Sicaran has a great big silver gun on it at present but that's actually primer and further paint will be applied

Awesome, better get those Berers of the Word sorted, there's some Ultramarines waiting as target practice for you ;)

Not much happening today but we do have two new vows - Balthamal and Vinnie. Although we do graciously welcome you both to the Team, special mention goes to Vinnie as he is also new to B&C. Welcome to the forums, brother. :tu: 

 

Kor'Vesh is also on the honour rolls today - he has finished his first vow. No doubt a second one will come to pass but let's just take a moment and look at the freehand. Very nice. Also, let's thank Kor'Vesh for his support in his own thread, pushing others forward and encouraging the Team ever onwards. Thank you.

 

And today's numbers are:

 

  • Pledged total: 92,893 points 
  • Completed total: 13,838 points 
  • Vows completed: 17
  • Completion rate: 14.9%
  • Number of vows: 102
  • Average vow: 911 points

I'm afraid it may simply end up being a bridge too far, this year, to expect 100,000 points to be pledged in the first month alone. We're tantalisingly close and yet the Weekly update will be due either today or tomorrow. Can we scrounge just over seven thousand points in the closing hours?

 

Even if we don't it's been a pleasure trying to see if we can do it. We have two further months to revow and can build on what we have already started.  I have no doubt that we can exceed the 100,000 point mark, given that time we have. Once we move into the second phase of the competition, we will need to place equal importance on completing vows. The closer we can get our rate to 100%, the better off we'll be.
