I, Soups, answer the call of E TENEBRAE LUX and
vow to complete [1 kitbashed Mephiston, 3 attack bikes w/ multimelta, 1 Furioso dreadnought with magna grapple and frag cannon, Drop pod for said dreadnought, 10 death company w/ bolters, 2 Librarians (with magnetic backpacks) with jump packs] from Codex: Blood Angels of total value [1025 points] on or before August 15th.

Less models as last year, yet almost the same points. Lets hope I can get some money rounded up for more simple green and red paint. I have 3 predators, 3 baals, and 1 vindicator needing some repaint love. That would be a awesome vow #2.

[Alyssis]

Im preparing a vow myself, and i have about 1500-2000 points comming in the mail! I wonder tho, if you will aprove my sternguards, and a stormraven as well.. The sternguards have been primed, and with a single base red colour, nothing else. The raven is primed black, and have red wings.. nothing else there either. Will this be okay to include in my vow?

I did read in the rules, where it said early stages of painting if i recall correct, so i hope this will be fine as well!

I have about one and a half week before my examn, and then i have 3 months free! So i will be getting my painting on then, and i will deffinatly do my part for our brotherhood!

[MadGreek]

I the Mad Greek answer the call of E TENEBRAE LUX and vow to complete one Furioso Dreadnought with Magna Grapple, Frag Cannon, Blood Fist, and Meltagun, and one Furioso Librarian Dreadnought from Codex Blood Angels of total value of 315 points on or before August 15th. Success will bring eternal glory to the Blood Bulls Chapter and failure will doom me to bear the Badge of Shame until the year-end

 

Learned my lesson from last year.  Smaller vow, but more vows - instead of 1 big one like last year.  More units on the table for assembly and future Vows.  Good luck to all.

Awesome! I will make my vow when the rest of the stuff arrives! I want to have everything there, so i know that i actually have it all! But if all goes as planned, its looking to about 3000 points to paint over the summer!

As this is my first post, I'm throwing myself in at the deep end here, especially as I'm planning on getting a few more NIght Lords done in the same sort of timeframe (but as I'll always be a Blood Angel player at heart I'm not going to vow for those traitors!).

I will also be trying to find time/resources to add in some armour in a second vow later in the summer, but let's get this one out of the way first...

Will get my WIP thread up tonight and start adding in shots of the models.

TABLE UPDATED TO THIS POINT!

[Memento Of Prospero]

Updated Vow, Mephiston Complete! Onto Sternguard!

[Demoulius]

Until what time can we pledge our vows? I failed the blood angels last year, dont want to do that again.

Last year real life intervened, hope that doesent happen again

[Alyssis]

Opening: May 15th
Deadline for declaring participation: June 15th at 17:00 GMT. Participation is declared by submitting your first vow.
Ending: August 15th at 17:00 GMT.

All
participants MUST make their first vow by June 15th (17:00 GMT) the latest. People that have not submitted a vow by June 15th cannot participate in this year’s E TENEBRAE LUX (unless as an out-of competition entry).

So, you have to make your first vow before the 15th of June! I will make sure to do that as well! I just hope my stuff get here so i can start! Shipping is slow to Norway sometimes..!

[Captain Semper]

Exactly - Alyssis got it right! You have until June 15th to get your first vow in.

 

BTW, what's going on BAs? Is that it? I'm sensing a lack of momentum here... You have made a good start but you must follow it up in order to remain on top... What matters now is getting new recruits in - forget about hefty vows, there will be opportunities for this later. What you need is new blood (I have to keep those puns in check :D).

[Alyssis]

Hehe.. i wants to join! I have one more week of full reading, and next monday after 1500, im all ready for 3 months free time! I will get alot of painting going then.. I need to get all my models, and bits first, but over the summer, i will paint a librarian, dante, astorath, reclusiarch in terminator armour, a whole bunch of sanguinary priest conversions, 1 tactical squad, 1-2 assault squads, 5 terminators, 10 sternguards, a furioso dread, 2 drop pods, a stormraven, a land raider, a squad of 5 devestators with 4 lascannons, and another squad with 4 plasma cannons! And maybe some more im missing..! And everything is going into the competition, even if i have to start slow, with only the models i already have!

I can make vows up and til the 15th of august, correct? After first entering the competition with a vow before 15th of june, of course..! The following four vows is no time limit on, as long as they are completed before the competition ends?

Correct. Your first vow is essentially a declaration of partiicpation in the ETL. The doors close for new participants on June 15th. If you mke your vow before then, the remaining 4 vows can be taken at your discretion.
