Angels Gather! ETL VI is upon us!

[derelinqueren]

Sounds good, I have a dark talon sitting in its unopened box and some cataphractii Deathwing that need to be added to my scouring era army

[Zujara]

ETL is always a fun event, I look forward to painting with the unforgiven this year!

[Captain Semper]

Great to see people gathering under the banner of the First! We really need to get as many participants as possible! Size of vow(s) is a secondary consideration, the important thing is to get a many people as possible to complete their first vow! 

 

 

 

 

THE FIRST 

THE HONOURED

THE SONS OF THE LION

[Bryan Blaire]

Sooooo... can orange and black pointy eared folk be pledged as the Dark Angels they might secretly work toward the same goals of? :devil:

[Captain Semper]

Filthy Xenos lover, bring back those Stoneburners you fiend! :p

[Interrogator Stobz]

So my plan to finally paint my Warhound is dashed for 2018.

I’ll be painting Deathwing because Titans don’t get the DARK ANGEL key word :P

[Captain Semper]

Says who? ;)

[Interrogator Stobz]

Do you know something I don't?

 

If I can pledge it here I certainly will.

[Captain Semper]

Pledge it here. The 10th Master has spoken! 

[Interrogator Stobz]

Got it!!!

 

:lol:

I’ve been waiting about 2 years to see you finish the stone burner captain in terminator armour and now I find you’ve been cheating with Xenos filth.

 

Why is there never a Chaplain when you need one.

[Chaplain Raeven]

What are you talking about? Chappy Stobz is right here! He's just slacking in his duties, as usual.

 

Question, are Centurions available for DA or are they still SM-exclusive?

[Captain Semper]

No, we don’t have access to Centurions...

[Lachdannan]

I plan to paint up my new Deathwing for the upcoming event. So count me in.

[Chaplain Raeven]

Bummer, guess I'll stick to terminators. Thanks for the assist!

[Lostrael]

I complained to my spouse that I don't have enough DA stuff to paint for the ETL. So he flipped though the codex and pointed at a picture of a flyer - Stormraven Gunship - "Do you like to paint that?" 

[Grotsmasha]

I'll be speed painting some GotC Primaris (Starter set + Librarian, Chaplain, Redemptor, and extra Intercessors), plus I'll be counting my Art scale Heresy marines as more Intercessors and Helblasters.

 

Base cost, w/out wargear is 1,300pts.

 

Cheers,

Jono

 

EDIT: Quick Question, the Codex says;

 

"Simply add together the points values of all of your models, as well as the wargear they are equipped with to determine your army's total points value".

 

I read this as meaning the models "standard" equipment IS NOT included in it's points cost, and MUST be added (Named Characters excl).

 

For example, although listed at 140pts, in actuality, a Redemptor Dreadnought with its standard armament is actually 201pts, correct?

You’re quite right that poor Stoneburner captain has been running around with only one arm for nearly four years beautiful but incomplete. Now we here talk of fraternising with pointy ears and the good Chaplain stand idle.

 

I’m off to wake the boss.

In the Codex, in the point values page (p. 142 in the printed version) it clearly states that “points per model” does not include war gear. In fact the “standard” equipment is priced 0 points. So I think you’re reading it right...

[Punk possum]

Well I have committed to doing a completely new Angels of Vengeance force for the upcoming Double trouble tournament so provided ETL kicks off before June 4coy will step up...

I couldn't paint him for the ETL anyway...

[Interrogator Stobz]

Information regarding your loyalty has been received Brother Blair, it will be investigated and you can look forward to a cup of tea and cookie in Chamber 42 whilst that happens.

Have a nice day.

Whatever you are painting I look forward to seeing it.

[Chaplain Raeven]

Maybe we should organize a building event until the start of the ETL, so we can start the event by just painting stuff, instead of starting from scratch. Assembling models sometimes takes as long as painting depending on the model.

I’m in total agreement. We are the 1st. The Lion was the ultimate strategist, and we should never lose sight of this!

 

I’m currently building the 2nd half of a tactical squad, the last few bits on a devastator squad, building a darkshroud, and currently an old speeder is taking a dettol bath. Anything to keep me on schedule will help!
