flintlocklaser Posted March 31, 2008 Share Posted March 31, 2008 As I stated over in the BT forum, weather and family emergency crap have totally stopped me from painting. But I have assembled my 2 big hand-to-hand Crusader squads and 3 smaller fire-support squads, as well as 8 assault marines (except for 2 of the guys who I am going to magnetize arms on). At some point this month my digicam should be back from the warranty repair, and I hope to have pics of the remaining units (SB Terminators and 2 MM assault bikes) to show, along with my 5 Crusader squads, at least assembled, and hopefully primed up and ready to paint!

ijiro Posted April 1, 2008 Share Posted April 1, 2008 Well, I didn't do much painting, unfortunately :D But I did assemble more terminators. Got 3 units ready on custom made bases. 3 Bikes and 1 Trike are ready, too. Got my Belial put together and my Priest in Terminator Armor has magnetized arms for his Crozium plus Boltpistol or a pair of claws. I'll try to take a picture of all that is assembled soon ... and I hope to get some more painting done in april, but since I have a lot going on at work, I'm not quite sure if I can :unsure: Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/128469-call-of-the-imperium-mkii/page/5/#findComment-1532715 Share on other sites More sharing options...

zethliss Posted April 1, 2008 Share Posted April 1, 2008 Well I've managed a squad of terminators and 5 Tac marines including their sargeant. The stripping of a load of old minis is going well and I managed to pick up 62 marines and a hammerhead on ebay for 33 quid. One I manage to get the old DA paintjob off them (god knows what was used but the Dot 4 isn't working anywhere near as well as normal) I'll get them cleaned up and start work on my battle company. Still only aiming for my original point total this year though as my fist child is ue in a few weeks so I know that no painitng will be done for a while. I'll add some pics in of the finished minis later.

Lord Noble Posted April 2, 2008 Share Posted April 2, 2008 Well, It's been 2 months since my answer to the call, and I've done.... Nothing. OK, that's not true... I've purchased & (mostly) cleaned: 1 10 man Tac Squad 2 1/2 10 man Assault squads 1 Veteran Assault squad Mind, I'm a fiend for converting and such so, I'm taking my time with some of these troops... I'll toss some pics up once I get something worth looking at.... -J Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/128469-call-of-the-imperium-mkii/page/5/#findComment-1534183 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Age quod agis Posted April 2, 2008 Share Posted April 2, 2008 THAT IS INSANE! how many points? that is an unbelievable amount of progress there, you are fast Well, part of it is I'm off from work due to an injury, so I've had lots of time to paint. The other part is I'm trying to get a Battle Company painted up as quickly as possible for the ongoing Apocalypse league the local GW stores are doing. I fielded the Battle Company this past weekend, and it did great! (Details are in the BA forum). The Battle Company is around 3600-3700 points depending on transport choice, weapons, etc. The total army of BA I have is around 5200-5500 depending on loadouts, etc. Add in my 3000 or so points of Dark Angels, and that's a lot of marines! (Plus 10 Grey Knight Terminators, 10 Grey Knight in PA, and about 750 points worth of Guard - everyone needs some cannon fodder!) The best part is my BA army cost me exactly $0.00 I used my original Ultrasmurf army (I've been a Ultramarine / DA player since Rogue Trader days, but the current emphasis on the boys in blue turned me off to them), and added to it by selling off my Tau army. :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/128469-call-of-the-imperium-mkii/page/5/#findComment-1534278 Share on other sites More sharing options...

frost_reaver Posted April 8, 2008 Share Posted April 8, 2008 Well, it's actually been almost 2 months since I started, but here's my first update.While they are far from finished, here's an in-progress shot and a current pic of the first 5 members of my VAS. These guys are for my "shooty" squad, so 3 of them have plasma pistols. http://i263.photobucket.com/albums/ii136/wargamersweb/wh40k/bloodangels/blog2/0008.jpg http://i263.photobucket.com/albums/ii136/wargamersweb/wh40k/bloodangels/blog2/0011.jpg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/128469-call-of-the-imperium-mkii/page/5/#findComment-1538552 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brother Plasticard Posted April 9, 2008 Share Posted April 9, 2008 Sadly, I Brother Plasticard is about to demonstrate an epic fail by announcing my retirement from this pledge. I have, without a doubt, failed the Emperor, and must set my sights on some IG renegades from FW. Basically, I have no money for some BT right now, because its being used for some FW stuff. On top of that, two pledges make one hell of a work out for me, on top of a very busy schedule. Sorry Brothers... Brother P. P.S. Nice things everyone! All of you are doing excellent!

The Angelus Sanctus Posted April 11, 2008 Author Share Posted April 11, 2008 Now, now lads, no need to argue about who has the better call :tu: I will admit the CotI did come a bit late (took a while to plan) allowing the Chaos forces to grow in number, not to mention, the Chaos forces did have the luck of being blessed with a new codex close to the start of the CoC Mk II. Now if things had started at the same time, i'd imagine it be on fairly equal footing, but i guess that is something to remember for next time. Nonetheless, the purpose of BOTH Calls, is not to see which call has the larger 'gamer base' but to help everyone reach a common goal :P So regardless of Imperial or Chaos, if you can finish what you set to achieve, then what more can you ask for? :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/128469-call-of-the-imperium-mkii/page/5/#findComment-1541663 Share on other sites More sharing options...

snorkle Posted April 14, 2008 Share Posted April 14, 2008 I was wondering if I could change my pledge to 1500points of Guardians of the Covenant? My Templars have left on a secret crusade to the far reachs of the basement and I can't find them. They got lost when we moved. Sorry for the lack of updates. The move has taken a long time to sort everything out and school hasn't been easy either.
