Good to see a Taurox in, hopefully we can get the whole gamut of transports pledged - still waiting for that Stormlord though tongue.png

I, WarriorFish of the 144th Arukan, do hereby vow to complete one Chimera (from Codex: Astra Militarum Imperial Guard) for the Regiments of the B&C: Treads and Thrusters by September 27th, for the honour of the Emperor and regiment.

No threads or thrusters but hopefully acceptable.

Imitating Mustachio and gave it wheels.

Also didn't like the 'hot rod' engine piping so left it off.

I, Nicodemus Dolorosus of the Ordo Hereticus' Storm Trooper Regiment, do hereby vow to complete one Valkyrie(from Codex: Astra Militarum/Militarum Tempestus) for the Regiments of the B&C: Treads and Thrusters by September 27th, for the honour of the Emperor and regiment.

Excellent, good to see some veterans returning to paint for more glory - promotions above Sergeant await you!

Great to see some cool WIPs being posted already too - once my order arrives I'll have to work hard to catch up biggrin.png

Nice another competition, this will help nicely to get me back to working on my painting and ignore my French homework.

 

I, HLVW of the 121st Dark Star Regiment, do hereby vow to complete one Valkyrie (from Codex: Astra Militarum) for the Regiments of the B&C: Treads and Thrusters by September 27th, for the honour of the Emperor and the regiment.

Who needs French anyway, you're never going to France right? teehee.gif

We're up to 10 recruits already, let's see who leads for the first completion - will it be a returning veteran's experience or a fresh recruit to show us how it's done? :D

Don't forget to put one of the participation banners into your sig if you have room to spread the word :tu:

I, Bonzi of the Sons of San Leor, do hereby vow to complete one Chimera (Codex: Astra Militarum) for the Regiments of the B&C: Treads and Thrusters by September 27th for the honor of the Emperor and the regiment.

 

Behold the Chimera, Seed of Redemption, ready to be painted in the glorious colors of the Sons of San Leor.

 

I haven't missed a single Guard painting challenge since the subforums founding, why start a bad habbit nowbiggrin.png

I Sviar vow to paint a Vendetta if I find my Lascannons. Otherwise I'll paint a Valkyrie. Here is my starting picture.

Those who submitted their army write-up in All For One are requested to submit it again (by all means expand upon it).
Those who earned ranks (lance corporal, corporal and sergeant) in the previous challenge will be promoted further via completions in Treads and Thrusters.

Well my Sviar worlds was well elaborated. But I will write up an airforce section, if I however have som time left I could try to write about a small city on Sviar 1, as an expansionsmile.png

Good to see you back Sviar :D As for the regimental background you don't have to add any more if you've already done it, even more so as you've already post up a lot. Just make sure to re-enter it with your Vendetta completion so you can gain the full Sergeant rank for the Treads and Thrusters challenge :)

I, cod_lover of the PDF Knight World, Verdant Secundus, do hereby vow to complete one Chimera (from Codex: Astra Militarum) for the Regiments of the B&C: Treads and Thrusters by September 27th, for the honour of the Emperor and the regiment.
The first kit out of the cadian defence box I received a few months ago.
Hopefully this is the start of a full allied Astra Militarum detachment thumbsup.gif
@ WarriorFish
Thank you, and well... as they say, a change is as good as a holiday happy.png
Yes this will be the first vehicle for my guard.

I ForlorneRaven, of the 4th Drenan Armoured Brigade, do hereby vow to complete one Chimera (from Codex: Astra Militarum) for the Regiments of the B&C: Treads and Thrusters by September 27th, for the honour of The Emperor, Drenan and the Sabbat Worlds Crusade!

Picture of unpainted model to follow smile.png - Never done one of these before! Looking forward to it and hopefully it will motivate me to finally get on with my long suffering Guard!

Welcome aboard Raven, great to see a new face :D Painting challenges are easy enough; they're simple things and this one has no competitive element so there couldn't be a better introduction :) All you've got to do is meet the deadlines - if you have any questions please let me know :tu: They can be addictive though especially when you start gathering awards for your sig - which I notice is empty and waiting to be filled ;)

 

I'll be keeping an eye out for your progress so I can learn about your forlorn Guard regiment :D

Good to see so many flyers as well as ground vehicles (and I'm glad to see a Taurox!).

The quartermaster has plenty of medals for those who fulfill the Departmento Munitorum's Orders.

Similarly your two commissars have plenty of bolt shells for those who fail.

But we'll have no failures, right? msn-wink.gif

Just had word the new regimental armour is on a transport ship heading to Arukan Prime! Should be tomorrow but the Warp is a fickle thing, so could be as late as Tuesday. The Enginseers are eager to get their grubby mitts on it biggrin.png

Well I didn't squeal like a girl, rather I stood solemnly staring out of the window, Commissar's overcoat billowing in the wind and said in a gruff voice: "I must go, the Regiment needs me". There may have been explosions in the background, weeping women and children and also a couple of fireworks.

 

Or I just closed my emails and did some house keeping. The World may never know the true events of that day.

I'll be tracking the progress of my vow along with my other work preparing for Astro 2015 starting here: http://www.bolterandchainsword.com/topic/294433-the-road-to-astronomi-con-2015-plog/?p=3789452

“40 meters from the OP boss,” reported Staff Sergeant Xobs as he eased the motive controls back, slowing the Taurox to a crawl.

 

“Why do we always get stuck with these suicide assignments?” complained Sergeant Gilford from the rear of the crew compartment. “What are you talking about? This is what we signed up for. Sneak and peak, first in, last out. Besides, we’ve got disruptive camo, our engines are baffled and thermal recyclers are running. We have no signature. Nobody knows we’re here,” retorted Sergeant Marko. “First to buy it more like. Somehow, I don’t think our quarry needs eyes or ears,” replied Gilford.  

 

“Shut it, we’re Operators. Act like Operators,” snarled Warrant Officer Plaeko as he moved up to the observation cupola.

 

“Primary target confirmed boss. Doesn’t look like he’s trying to hide at all. Also, looks like at least a twenty cultists down there with him. And….and I think I saw Daemons,” whispered First Sergeant Cable manning the Omniscope. “I say we call in the Deathstrike and run BDA from here,” suggested Sergeant Alecki.

 

“Negative, you know our orders,” snapped Plaeko picking up the Vox. “This,…. is supposed to be a meet and greet”.

“Behind every enemy is another that is greater in capacity and more capable. We need to cease thinking discretely and start thinking holistically, or we will eventually be overcome. There is a solution to the larger problem at hand but we must be prepared to break old paradigms. If that requires my sacrifice then it is a paltry price to pay. ” - Inquisitor Kilo - at High Council - 4490950.M41
