THE DARK ANGELS PAINTING CHALLENGE

THE CHALLENGE

Traitors, your time has come!

The First Legion, the Unforgiven will at last put an end to your blasphemus existence and send you back to the Warp whence you came. Standing in our path can only ensure your utter destruction and only the most crazed amongst you will dare to oppose us. Do you think you can stop the Angels of Darkness bring the Light of the Emperor to the Eye? You can certainly try but rest assured no quarter will be given to the servants of the Dark Gods! Destruction is upon you!

+++IT IS THE FATE OF THE WEAK TO DIE UNKNOWN AND THE DESTINY OF THE STRONG TO RULE FOR ETERNITY. GIVE ME GLORY OR GIVE ME DEATH+++

Welcome to E TENEBRAE LUX, the Dark Angels Painting Challenge. This Challenge aims to cultivate faction loyalty and tighten the relations of members of the various forums while getting miniatures painted at the same time. E TENEBRAE LUX is structured quite differently compared to the LPC that many of you might be familiar with. It is designed to play down the inherent disadvantage of low vow-count (that some forums seem to suffer from), evening out as much as possible the chance of victory for all. It also allows for the development of strategies such as to who’s going to paint what, under the coordination of moderators or other active members of your sub-forum. Even a last minute hero might tip the balance!!!

THE RULES

1. ELIGIBLE FORUMS: This challenge involves all the sub-forums that are associated with a Codex officially released by GW. See eligible forums in the “Important Stuff” section below.

2. VOWS: Each participant MUST declare the sub-forum (and hence the Codex to be used) in his/her vow. That’s how his/her allegiance will be defined. You cannot pledge for the Blood Angels sub-forum for example and use Codex: Space Wolves units as your vow. One has to make a choice. This is different from the LPC where people can paint whatever they like and pledge it for whichever forum they like. Here it’s about faction loyalty! So make your choice and support your preferred faction to the bitter end!

3. LEGAL ENTRIES: Each vow should be a legal unit from the chosen Codex. It can be upgraded with any legal upgrades but WYSIWYG is required. An exception is made for dedicated transports that can be entered individually as if they were standalone entries in any Codex. Furthermore Special Characters that are used as squad upgrades can also be entered individually and are worth the “upgrade” points. If in doubt of whether your vow is legal or not, feel free to raise the question (publicly or through PMs) and you will receive the ruling of the Inner Circle before you commit.

4. THE TWIST: EXPANDING THE VOWS: Here is the twist: once the vow is complete, a new vow with additional units can be added but they should also be legal entries from chosen Codex as described above. This new vow must be clearly made according to the same format of the original vow. It should be stressed that the participant is liable for all the vows he makes. Failing one is failing all. So think carefully before stepping-up your commitment, if you fail on the second or subsequent vows all is lost!

5. THE WINNER: The sub-forum with the most points (as per relevant Codex) in the end of the event wins. As simple as that. Those that complete their vows successfully will get an amazing banner declaring their success in the Dark Angels Challenge while those that vowed for the winning forum will get the “Dark Angels Challenge Champions” banner that can wear with pride until the end of their days! Those that fail will be branded with the banner of shame until the year-end!

IMPORTANT STUFF

Timing of the event:

E TENEBRAE LUX opening: May 15th
Vow submission period: May 15th until June 15th at 22:00 GMT
E TENEBRAE LUX ending: August 15 at 22:00 GMT.

The format of the vow should be:

“I [insert name here] answer the challenge of the Unforgiven and vow to complete [insert unit name here] from Codex: [insert Codex name here] of total value [insert point value here] on or before August 15. Success will bring eternal glory to [insert Chapter/Legion/Warband] and failure will doom me to bear the sign of damnation until the year-end”

Eligible Forums:

• Black Templars – Codex: Black Templars
• Blood Angels – Codex: Blood Angels
• Dark Angels – Codex: Dark Angels
• Index Astartes – Codex: Space Marines
• Liber Astartes – Codex: Space Marines
• Space Wolves – Codex: Space Wolves
• Ultramarines – Codex: Space Marines
• ALL Chaos sub-forums – Codex: Chaos Space Marines OR Codex: Chaos Daemons
• Ordos Inquisition – Codex: Grey Knights OR SoBs PDF.
• Adeptus Mechanichus – IMPERIAL TITANS ONLY! (more on that in the Forgeworld section below)

Forgeworld: Forgeworld entries are legal provided it is clearly stated that the unit can be used in the chosen Codex in the 40k context. They worth the points as depicted in the relevant Forgeworld publication. The only exception here is Imperial Titans. For people that want to have a go with Imperial Titans they can legitimately do so if the vow is pledged for Adeptus Mechanicus. That’s the only non-Codex entries that are legal in this Challenge and the only vows that can be pledged on behalf of the Adeptus Mechanicus.

Only two pictures are required – one in the beginning (minis unpainted or primed or in very early stages of painting) and one for the finished vow. You are of course welcome to post as many pictures as you like in your WIP thread – but just two (one at the start and one at the finish) will suffice!

This thread is the “Chapter House” for this event. All vows of this sub-forum should be posted in this very thread in order to be valid. This is also the place to declare vow completions and/or vow renewals. Finally posting your WIP thread links in your vow post will be tremendously helpful! This is a big event guys, so making life easier for me, will help avoid confusion and backs ‘n forths…

You can also use this thread to gauge the progress of your forum (I’ll update often) and compare it with other forums in their respective threads. It will also be a good place to talk to each other as how to go about it, and organize your forum effort.

I am Captain Semper and the Inner Circle has given me command of this event. I’ll be glad to answer any questions as we go along and I will keep track of all forums’ efforts. So I’m the person you need to talk to for anything regarding the procedures of this competition but Moderators still have full control of the Meltas, Flamers and Blades of Reason. And they will gladly use all of them given half a chance...

May the best forum win!

[Trevak Dal]

Man I would, but both of my Chaos armies are done, and I'm reluctant to go out and buy any more models 'cause the eventual codex might Squat what I get. I got tactical flexibility, I got my converted Killteam. My World Eater army 'borrows' from my shooting Chaos army, and vice versa. I'm currently repainting my tau (Deconstructing suits and re-converting them after having learned some valuable lessons through making them) but they aren't permitted.

 

I'm sort of in the planning stage for a fluffy Grey Knight brotherhood...but that will be waiting until after Chaos gets its new book 6th Edition drops and the group passes judgment on it.

[Yogi]

I yogi will paint a 5man CSM squad with powerfist from the chaos codex total value 115.

[Warsmith Aznable]

The initial vow must be made by 15 June, but then additional vows can be made all the way up to the end provided the first was completed, yes?

[Captain Semper]

That's correct. First vow should be made by June 15. After that no new entrants are allowed. Old entrants however can vow again provided they have completed the initial oath. That way you can catch up with other sub forums that might be ahead in points. But be careful! If you fail your second vow all is lost - your first vow won't count either! So be extra sure before you up the stakes ^_^

[Drelthar]

Hey, I'm almost ready to submit a vow, but I only paint, and don't own the chaos codex, which is what I'll be painting for. Would it be alright for me to leave out the points cost of the squad that I'll be painting, or do you want me to find that out? If it helps, the squad is a total of 8 berzerkers, including 1 champion with a powerfist. No plasma pistols or additional wargear.

Flashing thick flames, Wheele within Wheele, undrawn,

Had wondrous, as with Starrs thir bodies all

And Wings were set with Eyes, with Eyes the wheels

Of Beril, and careering Fires between..."

[Beachymike123]

i'm just about ready to submit my vow but i have a quick question here - is it just one unit that has to be submitted per vow or can we put them together ie a commander and chosen unit say? then i can submit my vow and this can be the beginning of my army :P cheers in advance.

[Yogi]

I decided black legion with simplified icon. Subtle discord's black legion inspired me even though mine aren't a patch on his.

You can vow as many "legal" units you wish but they have to be from the same Codex - Chaos in this case. But keep in mind that you can also submit a second vow after you finished your first. So play conservatively because only finished vows count. Also bear in mind that if you fail on a subsequent vow then all is lost - even if previous vows were completedc they count for nothing.

 

So to recap: You can use as many "legal" units as you like in any given vow. Keep in mind you can always vow again once you finished - so play conservatively. Also keep in mind that unfinished vows nullify previous vows too!

 

Good luck!

 

EDIT: The first post is updated with a table at the bottom that shows the overall effort of the Chaos forums. It is updated up to that point and are entries are alphabetical. Similar tables can be found in all ETL threads across all participating forums so you can monitor all rivals' progress.

[Beachymike123]

Success will bring eternal glory to The Iron Crusade of Brother Lord Xanthan and failure will doom me to bear the sign of damnation until the year end.
