Dracos Posted April 4, 2018 Author Share Posted April 4, 2018 I didn’t suck after the first twelve years, but a year long bout with chemo and 8 yrs away from the game gonna make for an interesting learning curve. ETL couldn’t have come at a better time for me as a motivator. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dracos Posted April 5, 2018 Author Share Posted April 5, 2018 ETL is coming in about a month. A firm date will be announced soon. Thought I’d post that for anyone not haunting other parts of the forum :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MajorNese Posted April 5, 2018 Share Posted April 5, 2018 This time, I'm out. Currently finishing up my remaining Raptors, then I'll need a break from olive green and casted bitz. Instead, I'm getting my 7th edition AdMech back up and running. Quite literally, because knights just keep randomly popping up on my Tower of Shame.

Race Bannon Posted April 6, 2018 Share Posted April 6, 2018 Anyone with a spare Armiger still on sprue? PM me ^_^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thewarriorhunter Posted April 6, 2018 Share Posted April 6, 2018 My buddy has a small AdMech force and Forgebane that he's probably going to sell since he can turn it for a profit. I floated the idea that he just give all of it to me since I'm assembling ALL of the Kingdom Death kickstarter for him... he balked initially but I think after a day or two of that bouncing around in his head he might oblige me. Then I'll have my end game Raven Guard, Ad Mech, Knight armies that I want because it fits their lore perfectly. That being said I plan on participating but on a very small scale since I am unable to turn out high numbers of painted units due to family/work/hobby balance requirements.

Claws and Effect Posted April 6, 2018 Share Posted April 6, 2018 I might participate this year. .....but it will be with my Deathwatch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thewarriorhunter Posted April 6, 2018 Share Posted April 6, 2018 I ordered an airbrush from the Badger birthday deal that I'm still waiting on. It would be cool if I got that in time for this project. Might make painting go a lot faster for basecoating and shading everything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Semper Posted April 6, 2018 Share Posted April 6, 2018 Great to see the sons of Corax mobilise! And thank you to all veterans for trying to enlighten the new blood! :D Let me just make a brief recap on the subject of vows: Participants are allowed up to 5 vows in total. Each vow may contain as many 40k-legal units as the participant wants Each vow is capped to 3,000pts i.e. the combined value of all the units cannot be more than 3,000pts. If it is, only 3,000pts will count. All vows are sequential, i.e. you may never have two vows outstanding. You must finish the first before moving on to the second Of course the full rules will become available soon - these are just some highlights. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Race Bannon Posted April 6, 2018 Share Posted April 6, 2018 I should wait for the rules but iirc, fail to finish a vow by the end of the event and all vows don't count. If true, then you have to be strategic with this event. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Semper Posted April 6, 2018 Share Posted April 6, 2018 Correct! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thewarriorhunter Posted April 6, 2018 Share Posted April 6, 2018 All vows are sequential, i.e. you may never have two vows outstanding. You must finish the first before moving on to the second Based on this last bullet point it sounds like I can vow-as-I-go, is that correct? So if I happen to finish a vow sooner than expected and can squeeze in another one that is allowed? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Race Bannon Posted April 6, 2018 Share Posted April 6, 2018 Yes. Vow-as-you-finish more like it. So, it's a game between the quantity within the vow against the time to finish. This is also a photo thing; it's not enough to just say you have this done - the proof is in the photo ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is also a photo thing; it's not enough to just say you have this done - the proof is in the photo Oh yes, I believe pics would be a required part of this. It makes me feel better about not having to commit to everything up front. Some weeks I have more time than others. I am hoping to get a coupe units done for this. I won't smash any records but it will add too my army and help it look that much better on the table! So... are points calculated as base unit cost or points as equipped?

MajorNese Posted April 6, 2018 Share Posted April 6, 2018 How much time is there to get things done? Depending on the timeframe, I might do the one or other big unit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Race Bannon Posted April 7, 2018 Share Posted April 7, 2018 If it'll be like ETL5, then 1 month to officially vow (with pics), then 2 months of work. RG and successors will be for the C:SM faction, so the more points we can vow and get completed, then better for the faction. The number of vows is a personal status thing, while also being a control. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Semper Posted April 7, 2018 Share Posted April 7, 2018 Race Bannon, also known as Race the Wise! :) There is no time commitment for each vow. You make your first vow and you have three months to finish it. If you finish earlier you can vow again and you have all the remaining time of the event to finish it and so on until you complete a maximum of 5 vows. Of course you may finish your first vow in a week and call it there. That’s fine too. Or you may finish your first vow and make the second one after a month (if the event is still on of course). You just may never have two vows overlapping. You must complete your vow before making another one... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MajorNese Posted April 7, 2018 Share Posted April 7, 2018 3 months, that's something I can work with. Work-related travels will take quite some time, painting won't be quick at that time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
