(sorry about the pic, either need steadier hands or a tripod)

Dang it, you've got the same load-out I was gonna do. No problem, I might just submit my cappy, if I can ever get my hands on a camera for a picture.

Wow, 13 challengers here in the Blood Angels forum already? Can those of us from other forums claim unfair bias toward the Angels due to the name of this specific AoD? :)

 

Who would be so cowardly as to rely on psychic powers to win at an arena of death? ^_^
I don't know. I heard that some Codicer named Celino tried it, though...

Thanks! I'm thinking of adding some lightning-ish wings made from plasticard. I have a Mephy with wings I took from a WHFB elven bird rider thingy, but the wings look too substantial for a psychic power, even after a red/purple wash.

•Character name - Captain Karlean, Shield of Baal. Captain of the First Company.

•Codex used - Codex Blood Angels

•Unit entry used - Captain

•Wargear - Power Armour, Iron Halo (Shield of Baal), Frag and Krak grenades, Sword of the First: Seraph (Lighting Claw), Jump pack, Storm Bolter (Its under the Shield).

•Total cost - 143pts

 

•Stock special instructions -

 

Movement = If Infantry, once Stormbolter range is achieved shoot from 23-24 inches, maintain distance if there is no way to respond from opponent. If opponent also has 24" shooting, shoot, but make sure to get and maneuver for charge asap. If enemy is Jump infantry kite 12" away, shoot as long as possible, charge when they run to close distance.

Assault = When in range, assault. Movement covers most of that. For actual fighting, attempt to kill opponent before they strike back. Pray for wounds with LC re-rolls.

Voluntary Fallback = I don't really understand how this works. Go ahead and do whatever you personally think would be best. You don't become Captain of the First Company without knowing when to live to fight another day.

The easiest way for us to shift characters into other forums will be for the member to have an article/discussion in either the Liber Astartes forum (the DIY Chapter to which the character belongs, such as the Perdition Guard in the most recently entered character) or in the Librarium (can be any kind of published article). If you don't have an article published in the Librarium, when you submit an article in order to meet the requirement for the AoD, let us know that you'd like it fast-tracked for publication. That won't guarantee that it will be published (in case it needs work), but will guarantee that one of the Librarians or myself can review it in order to publish it if it meets the standards in time for the AoD.

id like to enter gents but have some questions.

 

if im reading this right we can include captains, librarians, chaplains, sanguinary priests and techmarines. however that would mean that in most of the cases power weapons are included and since not all characters have an invunerable save option (or even worse no option for one at all) isent this somewhat unfair?

 

also some character options (techmarine in this case) have options in the normal game to take servitors to serve as a sort of retinue. this isent allowed (guessing here to ensure 1 on 1 battles?) but basicly makes those selections less then favorable. other characters (sang priest for example) only have 1 wound compared to 2 or even 3 wounds of other characters. any chance those characters can be thrown a bone so they become viable options?

No bones. I know where you're coming from, but we're trying to stick as closely as possible to the official rules for this.

 

For what it's worth, we are developing some Arena of Death rules that will include the "bones" you're talking about. Those rules might take a bit, but we'll be able to use them for the next AoD that we hold.

Oh believe me Brother Tyler the Perdition Guard are well and truly a BA successor chapter and I'd be a little hurt being pushed to another forum. That being said however, IF someone does want to join I will consider Bowing out here and instead entering my Chaos BA lord on the nurgle forum.

Part of a complete entry is having a picture of the completed mini. Some members have submitted characters without pictures (yet). Once we reach the deadline, anyone that doesn't have a picture doesn't have a complete entry and will, therefore, be dropped from the competition. Since there are so many Blood Angels characters, that will make narrowing the field down a bit easier in order to get sixteen or fewer characters without having to shuffle any off to other forums or worse.

 

So please be sure to post a picture of your character between now and the deadline if you haven't already done so. Those members that have included pictures and are otherwise complete in their entries are okay.

vahouth, all-things-power armoured, haunter!, brother ulkesh, biglou666, fortunate son.

 

I did not see painted images for your entry (if I missed it, please correct me).

 

Without a painted entry by Midnight on 8/22 (Pacific time) you will be removed from the competition.
