+++E Tenebrae Lux V - Realm of Chaos Strategium+++

[Midnightmare]

 

 

As you can see there are 7 Chosen in the picture. I have one of the dudes started; he has had his trim painted Balthasar Gold and washed with Agrax Earthshade during my attempt at the Call of Chaos two years ago!! He is barely started but I know that he may be too far along for the event - Semper, what to do say?

I say OK! :tu:

Thanks Cap, I need his 22pts to make my 1st vow respectable :D :tu:

 

EDIT once I have done these, I will bite with an Abaddon vow or maybe 3 Nurgle Oblits

[Augustus b'Raass]

Wow it seems like the Kytan Engine is like last year's Brass Scorpion. MOAR!!!

[Iron-Daemon Forge]

When you work out the points give me a heads-up mate, so I can update the first page.

UPDATED TO THIS POINT!

I've just to add Be'lakor points now which I'll get edit/posted tomorrow when I get my Curse of the Wulfen book. But right now with everything else it 2070ptd (+Be'lakor).

Right now I've got the 15 plastic Khorne Berzerker built. Just need to sort a few thing tomorrow & hopeful start painting them this week. I've just been told my friend mange to pick up the Iron Circle models for me from Warhammer Fest today. So all going to plan hopeful get them on Wed.

Warp Talons as well been built.

I'll try get the photos uploaded tomorrow just for the before part.

Edit - If anyone vow a Dreadclaw pod I'm instreasted to see any conversion. Thinking about making a Dreadclaw recently, not sure why but feel like I want to add one to my Iron Warriors force. Not sure what unit though, there Chosen or Possessed (theme as IW in start stage of the Obliterator virus).

Augustus b'Raass - Will you be painting the Kytan in Legion colours? If so which Legion will he be join as I've seen you've put forward a few this year.

[Captain Semper]

This was too obvious.

My first vow is a small one 415 points

Renegade knight with rapid fire battle cannon and Icarus missilies

When you do take the pics, please edit them to your original post so everything will be nice and tidy! Good luck! :)

[Slave to Darkness]

[Chaeron]

+++Legion Ascendant+++ 

 

The equerry prised the doors apart with tentative care, unwilling to draw his master’s ire. He knew that any such provocation could result in his service being short-lived; stepping around what remained of the prior incumbent of his role offered a timely reminder as to what his career trajectory may hold should he displease. He approached the throne, and in halting cadence asked:

“My Lord, will we answer the summons? The other Chaos Lords require an answer. Do we march with our brothers?”

“I am weary,” he sighed. “But, I will stand. There are oaths I will not break. Prepare the men: instruct the company commanders to bring every weapon we possess. Raid the armouries; fire the forges. Renew the pacts. They may mobilise in force against us, but we will draw upon our legacy as we write our own future. We will demonstrate that we have not been idle: tell our fellow warlords, we will stand with them. We march, for we are relentless: we are Legion.”

As ever, incredibly grateful if anyone wants to double check that, hope I've not made any mistakes in counting or preparation - happy to resolve ASAP if there has been any oversight on my part. 

 

Look forward to this as ever, best of luck to everyone competing. 

[BrotherJim]

Oh wow I thought I was organised! You guys are kicking ass! Some seriously hefty vows being made! Glory to Chaos!

[gianlucafiorentini123]

So the birthday was very kind to me for chaos minis.

 

 

Probably won't be adding all of these to the ETL as I've already got a large enough set of models to paint up but hopefully add some of them, currently working on the burning chariot Silver Tower has really got my Tzeentchen (?) juices flowing.

 

 

So this is what I currently have built (minus the big guy at the back still not sure abut him), but aiming to add 3,000 for the glory of chaos.

[GhostMalone]

You guys

Here's my conversion of a Dreadclaw from a normal drop, with a small tut on cutting the fins, hope that helps.

 

And I'll be pledging at the end of the week, I'll edit this post for the pledge, I just need to finish up some things to get the time in.

[Carrack]

Is a scratch built Disc of Tzeentch a counting upgrade? I was under the impression that no scratch builds applied to entire models. If not, no big deal, I'll pick up the points on other models.

[Dragonlover]

@40kChris: by the end of the week this'll be at ten pages minimum, just make a new post for your vow. Keeps it nice and easy for Captain Semper!

[Carrack]

In these dark days tragedy knocks on every door and calls out to the young and old, the rich and poor alike. Prophesies of doom are as common as flies over a decaying corpse. Most should be ignored as the ravings of madmen, but some hold a kernel of truth that must be heeded at all cost.

 

One such prophecy, read in the entrails of slaves of the False Emperor, tells of yet another victory for the Arch Enemy of Mankind. Of where and when this victory will take place, little is known, other than a few letters that were formed from the viscera of the loyalist sacrifices. They spelled ETL V.

 

I, Carrack vow the following units taken from codex daemons, and the Black Legion Supplement. They will be completed before 15 Aug 2016

 

1 Plaguebearer squad with Plagueridden, instrument, plague banner (125)

 

Chaos lord with murder sword, plasma pistol, sigil, MOT, VOTL, disc. Combat familiar (205)

 

For a total of 330 points. Success will bring glory to the Despoiler of Worlds, failure will mark me with the badge of shame for the rest of the year. (If the disc doesn't count please adjust the points accordingly)

[Dantay VI]

Lets see if Atia's greater daemon gets painted faster than the Reaver she vowed last year.

 

Btw, how is the Reaver?? :P

Two Renegade Chimeras with Autocannons and Milita Training (140)

Five Raptors with two Meltaguns, Veterans of the Long War and Icon of Vengeance, Champion with Power Sword and Melta Bombs (145)

Cerastus Acheron Knight (415) - I have painted the Pilot a while back, so if that's in violation of the ETL rules (or the Acheron itself) just bring the word Semper. I'll finish it out of competition then.

All in all 700 points dedicated to the glory of the Dark Go......oh right, Night Lords...nevermind.

Pics will come soon.

Edit: And the pics.

[Aasfresser]

Welcome and good luck, Isengrin :D

[Isengrin]

Thanks, man.

And damn your tzeentchian trickery. Writing about ETL all the time really didn't help.

[Filkarion]

Yes! Moar! Even a newbee to the forum - welcome Filkarion! That's a big and hefty vow you made there. Do you require assistance and motivational banter, to keep you motivated? 

Yes, thank you! Any help would be very appreciated! I made a big vow just to get into an "all or nothing" mindset to finally paint my huge backlog of gray chaos models

 

I'm not a speed painter but I do pretty well when I have a clear target and the right kind of preassure!

 

Also, sorry for the copy and paste of all options points from the builder... I guess being the first time I'm bound to make mistakes (and I actually read the rules...but I was so excited when posted the vow I probably forgot half of them^^;;;)

 

So thanks for the correction Insane Psychopath!
