Taranis Posted September 1, 2013 Share Posted September 1, 2013 (edited) +++ FROM RAGE TO SALVATION+++http://i977.photobucket.com/albums/ae257/Pendragi/40k%20art/Blood_Angel_Librarian.jpgOVERVIEWWelcome to "From Rage to Salvation" the Blood Angels's painting event!We all have that half complete army, the squad you always wanted to expand, the Death Company jump squad that was left half-done. The Librarium Painting Competition and the E Tenebrae Lux built on that with competitive incentives by challenging the other forums. There are many who did not participate, other’s who failed their vows and even more did not vow as much as they had hoped to. The "From Rage To Salvation" will provide us with a incentive to complete our half done projects.This is simple, low level event that I hope will allow us to complete our old projects and start new ones at a time when the Blood Angels needs both enthusiasm and loyalty.RULES Duration: 3 months from September 1st to November 30th, 2013. Participants can join at any time during the life of the event. Entry requirements: As this is a Blood Angels event, participants must pledge Blood Angels (or Successors) units from any system covered by B&C. So 40k, Forge World (Horus Heresy & Imperial Armour lists), Epic, BFG are all welcome! Models can be at any state of completion when entered, from completely unpainted to almost done! Re-vowing: If participants have achieved their target before the end of the 3-month period they can pledge again. AWARDS: If participants have achieved their target before the end of the 3-month period they can pledge again. If at the end of the 3-month period they have completed ALL their pledges they'll get the IRATUS DOMINUS badge. If not they have failed Sanguinius and may carry the badge of CARCERES IRA!Behold and feast your eyes on the:IRATUS DOMINUShttp://i977.photobucket.com/albums/ae257/Pendragi/40k%20art/gallery_52275_4552_20046.pngAnd the:CARCERES IRAhttp://i977.photobucket.com/albums/ae257/Pendragi/40k%20art/gallery_52275_4552_22336.pngThe award is won, and may be carried, when completing a vow but lost if any vow's are incomplete by the end of November.Who will shine the most in this display of loyalty to our Primarch and Legion?The Angelic Host.SnorriSnorrison.A Reclusiarch, a Stormraven Gunship, 2 Sanguinary Priests and a unit of Death Company.

Taranis Posted September 1, 2013 Author Share Posted September 1, 2013 (edited) I have lived far longer than I should have. My soul should havedeparted from my ancient body and joined the Great Angel in oblivion,but the future holds events that even the greatest psykers, mybrother Mephiston among them, cannot foretell.It is said that a figure in gleaming gold shall stand before the Emperorin the Imperium's darkest hour, and fight to defend the Golden Throneand the Lord of Men who sits upon it.If it were not for this, I would be prepared to sacrifice myself on thefield of battle as my time has lasted longer than it should have. Butthis approaching final fight keeps the flame burning in my spirit. Ihave stared death in the face a thousand times, but it seems I am notto die until my destiny has been fulfilled.I am Dante, Master of the Blood Angels, Lord of the Cursed.The light of the system's nearest sun glinted off the flank of Bloodcaller, a Battle Barge of the renownedBlood Angels Chapter. Patrolling the Baal system was one of the mostimportant tasks the Blood Angels fleet performed, and even if enemycontact was extremely unlikely the Astartes remained alert and ready,expecting the unexpected every moment of every hour, never relaxingand always expecting bloodshed; such is the life of a Space Marine.It is their purpose, the reason for which they exist: to kill.But the noble Blood Angels share a level of empathy with the common manof the Imperium that no other Chapter can boast. Their flaws, theirinnate failings, remind them of the sanctity of life and serve as areminder that their place in the galaxy is not permanent. It ishumbling knowing that you and your brothers will slowly succumb to aninnate flaw. Their imperfections and their fight to control them makethem the most admirable of the Space Marines.Just like the humble man has to fight just for survival in the cold, darkUniverse of the 40th Millennium, that Blood Angels have to constantlybattle their innermost desires in order to stay sane, lest they castthemselves into the depths of madness and condemn themselves to alife of insanity.Their Primarch, the Great Angel, was unique amongst the Primarchs in thathe didn't care solely about his strategies, tactics and concernhimself only with the fighting in the present. He fought for a timeof peace and prosperity after the Great Crusade had ended, it is bothironic and deeply saddening that he was struck down shortly beforethe Imperium quelled the Horus Heresy and the nearest thing to peacesettled over the galaxy since before the Age of Strife.Ten thousand years after their beloved Primarch was struck down the BloodAngels still fight in his name, still cry his name in battle, andstill devote their victories to his memory.Today, the Blood Angels would need all the strength they could muster fromtheir Primarch's lessons. Soon they would stare into oblivion.“My Lord, a sizeable warp storm has come into being 400 miles north ofour position. I'm picking up thousands of entities.Mephiston met Dante's gaze, and at once read his expression."It's him. Ka'Bandha."Dante, realising the situation, stared deeply into Mephiston's eyes, looking for an glimmer of hope or optimism. There was none.The Lord of the Blood Angels slowly turned his head, and once more gazed out into the nothingness ahead of him. Out there was the creature which would herald the end of days."We will stop him. Our Primarch achieved it in Man's darkest days."Mephiston retorted; "we no longer have the strength of a Primarch at our side."Dante turned sharply. "He lives on within every single one of us, we are tied to him by blood.In your name, Sanguinius, we shall smite this Daemon once more. We shall send him to oblivion.Blood Angels, we go to war once again."Story and storyline by Brother teblin.

Taranis Posted September 1, 2013 Author Share Posted September 1, 2013 (edited) Looking good guys. :) I'll be keeping a log. With that in mind I'll remind that only codex legal units/entries will be counted. That shouldn't keep you from doing or displaying "army list illegal projects"though. :) We're here to help each other getting stuff done story wise and painting wise. :yes: Edited September 3, 2013 by Taranis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sockwithaticket Posted September 1, 2013 Share Posted September 1, 2013 This has come around at a good time. I was just starting up a new assault squad, mostly in pieces, but a couple of splashes of paint here and there. Will have a look-see, but a Jump Chappy plus 5 man RAS should be a good start.

Captain Semper Posted September 3, 2013 Share Posted September 3, 2013 Congrats Taranis for launching this event! Lets see the Blood Angels regaining their painting mojo that will once again bring them to the glories of old! Good luck to all! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taranis Posted September 3, 2013 Author Share Posted September 3, 2013 @Axun. Welcome into the light. :) The best part for me with painting/modeling challenges is when new brothers join in. Only The Emperor knows how much geneseed is in the vaults. The battle brothers that remain and those new that emerge are beacons of light for the future of our legion/chapters..... @ Captain Semper. Thanks.:) I'm hardly alone in this. teblin and Zynk Kaladin are a great support. I sure hope to see the Blood Angels Legion regain some of their vitality and optimism in this grim, dark period of difficulties. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
