mactire Posted May 24, 2012 Share Posted May 24, 2012 no nothing like that, as i said before i dont game so some of my weapon loadouts are more what i think looks good as opposed to codex legal ie. twin axes twin swords, swords and shields. im nothing claiming the points for extra weapons i just model them that way.

Arez Posted May 24, 2012 Share Posted May 24, 2012 Yeah thats one of the reasons I picked it, also really fell in love with it after the first time I used it! :P Sadly I don't own any Ulrik model and it's far to the nearest store and frankly I'm really not a big fan of the "awesome" new Finecast material, there were a lot to do on Logan before I could even prime him. :) Shall go over my collection and see if there is any other stuff that beggs to be painted. Logan looks good,why not kit bash a Ulrik? Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/252373-e-tenebrae-lux/page/7/#findComment-3069016 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Captain Semper Posted May 26, 2012 Author Share Posted May 26, 2012 @ Buliwyf: Welcome aboard - big vow too! Just a few points to clarify before I update the table with your vow: The magnetized sheilds will be the only configuation right? What I'm saying is you can not earn points for magnetizing alternative loadouts. You have to vow for a particular configuration. Also Wolfguard... They come at a minimum of three right? as far as I can tell you only have included one. What you can do is say he's a Battle Leader instead (I think you can achieve the same loadout and get more points in the process ;)) @ Rune_Priest_Rhapsody: Are you the Emperor? ;) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/252373-e-tenebrae-lux/page/7/#findComment-3070004 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ethzor Posted May 27, 2012 Share Posted May 27, 2012 I, Ethzor, answer the challenge of the Dark Angels and here by extend my vow by adding a Wolf Lord with Runic Armour, Wolf Tail Talisman, Belt of Russ and a Frost Blade and a Wolf Priest with Runic Armour and a Wolf Tail Talisman with from Codex: Space Wolves for a total of 300 points on or before August 15. Success will bring Eternal Glory to The Fang, and failure will doom me to bear the sign of damnation until the year-end. This will bring my total contribution to 575 points!

Captain Semper Posted May 27, 2012 Author Share Posted May 27, 2012 Hey Ethzor, a second vow for the Wolves!!!! A small club right now (second time vowees) but expect it to grow!!! Just keep in mind that the upgrades should be physically represented on the mini in order to benefit from the points - so I'd like to see a Belt of Russ, Runic armour etc... :D Good luck! :lol: Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/252373-e-tenebrae-lux/page/7/#findComment-3070698 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Captain Semper Posted May 27, 2012 Author Share Posted May 27, 2012 E TENEBRAE LUX – 2nd WEEK UPDATE http://fortressofunforgiven.homestead.com/DA_Challenge_vs_SW.jpg E TENEBRAE LUX – WEEK 2 Black Templars 24 10,931 455 Blood Angels 26 12,279 472 Dark Angels 33 16,991 515 Index Astartes 16 6,655 416 Liber Astartes 7 5,043 720 Space Wolves 19 12,731 637 Ultramarines 6 2,709 452 Chaos 19 5,625 296 Ordos Inquisition 6 1,633 272 Total 156 74,597 478 - - - - Codex Space Marines 29 14,407 497 Comments:The Dark Angels retain the highest number of vows and the highest point-count however the difference with the rest of the forums has narrowed. Still they retain a fairly high points/vow ratio but it is evident that their leading position is challenged from all fronts. They increased their point-count by 30% in the week (5.0k pts).The Wolves made an impressive effort last week keeping the second position in terms of pledged points increasing last week’s levels by 43% (5.5k pts). They also retain one of the highest points/vow that increased even more compared to last week. This is mainly because of the relatively high density of super-vows (>1,000pts). It appears that the Wolves have an affinity for entering high value vows and they are also very vocal about it! It seems to be a genetic thing... Maybe something that should be looked into? Blood Angels are the heroes of this week. From a fairly weak position (4th or 5th if we count the Codex Astartes forums together) they climbed to third place overtaking the Black Templars and only a handful of points separating them from the Wolves (around 450pts where the average vow is 470 – so just a vow away from second place). Congratulations guys – the Angels of Blood showed resilience that I guess is a signature trait... Well done. Just to get the measure of effort the Blood Angels increased their pledged points by more than 52% on the week adding 6.4k points the biggest addition of any single forum! Black Templars continue with their systematic approach to the challenge staying in touch with the top positions but slipping to 4th place with a good 1.3k points behind the Blood Angels. Given their average points/vow it means that, roughly, at this stage they are 3 vows behind... Certainly an easy to cover distance if they don’t slip further -or indeed if the Blood Angels don’t take-off. Still they managed to increase their point count by 41% on the week but adding only 4.4k points. Sorry guys – you need to step-up the effort! Index Astartes and Liber Astartes are doing a fantastic job! They have increased their vows by 69% and 74%(!) over the week and also increased their points/vow ratio to 416 (from 259) and to 720 (from 442) respectively. However, individually they have a fairly low number of participants (pledged vows). If new blood comes in with vows close the current averages I wouldn’t be surprised to see a change in the top three positions – and a nasty surprise to the “traditional” powers! So guys don’t hold back! Go Liber! …and Index ;)Ultramarines are really lagging. They only added 1 vow in the past week and total points pledged are the second lowest. However the points/vow seems to be at par with the leading forums so again we have lack of numbers not commitment! Someone needs to explain this to me. How come Ultramarines lag in numbers? Seriously guys, pick up your brushes and stand by the XIII Legion!However if one is to measure the relative weight of the C:SMs in the ranks of B&C one should look at the Codex Space Marines forums as one. In this case, after the second week, they are the 2nd (!) in points pledged; they increased their vows by 62% w-o-w adding a stunning 9k pts the largest addition among all forums and with more than 1.5k pts difference to the Wolves!!! Chaos has two conflicting characteristics (well a million actually but I won’t go there right now :D) . in terms of vows its right there with the Wolves. In terms points/vow... VERY low!!! (less than 300). What Chaos lacks is a few super-vows (>1,000pts). Without them, their best chance is to wait for others to fail and keep renewing their own... Not a very sound strategy if the leading forum has currently pledged 3x the points they have. So more high-value entries should be the order of the day!Ordos Inquisiton continue to try to purge the Galaxy on their own! A noble cause and something for all of us to aspire to! Good luck Brothers – continue upon your path of righteousness! No Titans yet... :(So now we enter week 3 of the competition. Good luck to all and remember: After June 15th NO NEW ENTRANTS will be allowed. The teams would be set! So take the vow now or stay on the bench to watch your Brothers fight it out! Good luck to all!

Captain Semper Posted May 28, 2012 Author Share Posted May 28, 2012 It took me a while... No it's not a Codex entry i'm afraid. What you can do though is make him a "count as" of another, legal, entry. WYSIWYG could present challenges but hey - if you think it's possible go for it.
