Phadeout Posted April 26, 2014 Share Posted April 26, 2014 eBay has been kind over the last couple of days and I'll have about 1000 pts to pledge, don't see myself doing much more as we are expecting baby number 2 early June and that'll be it for the whole ETL I reckon, can't wait to get started now!!! Had a great time last year and can't recommend this enough to anyone who is umming and ahhing over joining.

marine7312000 Posted April 26, 2014 Share Posted April 26, 2014 I've got about 2000 points worth of models that are already assembled and waiting to get some paint. I just wish I could have the heresy stuff I've got count for BA.

A Son of Sanguinius Posted April 26, 2014 Share Posted April 26, 2014 I am amazed by you guys that can follow through on pledges of a thousand or more points. I tried it last year and was simply overwhelmed by it. I will be making smaller pledges but will at least be able to contribute more thany total of zero from last year.

knife&fork Posted April 26, 2014 Share Posted April 26, 2014 Work and studies will determine how much I'll be able to pledge, but there's no lack of unpainted models to blame for me :D Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/289469-etl-iii-is-coming/page/3/#findComment-3665191 Share on other sites More sharing options...
psychodough Posted April 26, 2014 Share Posted April 26, 2014 I've missed the last two painting challenges, not this year! I'll Be ready. Do repainting models count? I am currently repainting some of my BA into Flesh tearers colors. I'll hold my Land raider and Storm Raven for this!

marine7312000 Posted April 27, 2014 Share Posted April 27, 2014 I'll likely be making multiple smaller vows, rather than one large vow. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/289469-etl-iii-is-coming/page/3/#findComment-3665321 Share on other sites More sharing options...
xmercx Posted April 27, 2014 Share Posted April 27, 2014 I am amazed by you guys that can follow through on pledges of a thousand or more points. I tried it last year and was simply overwhelmed by it. I will be making smaller pledges but will at least be able to contribute more thany total of zero from last year. I did 5 vows for points and one vow for an open model and think that style works better for most. Each vow was about 250 points. Going to try and do more points per pledge this time but it lets you work on much smaller chunks at a time.

Memento Of Prospero Posted April 27, 2014 Share Posted April 27, 2014 Technically, heresy models could very well count for Forum : Blood Angels. As long as they are units you can field, are painted the proper colour it's just customization really. Clear this up with the event organiser first however just to be sure. If we are allowed to make vows for different forums, I could paint my second flying Landraider, a Captain, A Librarian and a Chaplain during downtime on my Iron Hands :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/289469-etl-iii-is-coming/page/3/#findComment-3665582 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Semper Posted April 27, 2014 Author Share Posted April 27, 2014 That is correct. You can use any type of armour to represent 40k BAs. As long as the unit is wysiwyg and priced from the BA Codex you're good to go. Also the painting is totally up to you! You can do your own Succesor in whatever colours you wish. If you choose to price them from the BA Codex they play for the BA faction! :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/289469-etl-iii-is-coming/page/3/#findComment-3665592 Share on other sites More sharing options...
marine7312000 Posted April 27, 2014 Share Posted April 27, 2014 I have 10 guys that are glued with volkites that I really wanted to get going on. The Contemptor could be used as a Furioso I suppose.

Gondow Posted April 27, 2014 Share Posted April 27, 2014 The contemptor is a valid choice as a contemptor, or at least was last time around :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/289469-etl-iii-is-coming/page/3/#findComment-3665846 Share on other sites More sharing options...

marine7312000 Posted April 27, 2014 Share Posted April 27, 2014 According to IA2V2 it is not a valid option for BA which was pretty upsetting when I saw that.

Captain Semper Posted April 27, 2014 Author Share Posted April 27, 2014 You were rightly upset. And the same limitation applies to SWs... But fear not! In Imperial Armour Apocalypse 2nd ed. there is a specific entry for Blood Angels Contemptor that is 40k approved - same for the Wolves. So ETL-wise you're covered! :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/289469-etl-iii-is-coming/page/3/#findComment-3665902 Share on other sites More sharing options...
marine7312000 Posted April 27, 2014 Share Posted April 27, 2014 I might have to contact FW to get clarification about which rules apply on Contemptors for future reference. Now if I only had the money for a Fellblade.... Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/289469-etl-iii-is-coming/page/3/#findComment-3665906 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Semper Posted April 27, 2014 Author Share Posted April 27, 2014 In my view, the IA 2 does not supersede or renders the Apocalypse book obsolete. I will gladly accept a BA Contemptor as a valid entry for the ETL - more so as there is no points' discrepancy with the standard version. So it's all good. A Fellblade on the other hand cannot become part of a BA force unless through the allies rule - which is not allowed in the ETL... Life's complicated no? :D Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/289469-etl-iii-is-coming/page/3/#findComment-3665932 Share on other sites More sharing options...
marine7312000 Posted April 27, 2014 Share Posted April 27, 2014 I refer you to the FAQ for IA2V2: When playing games using the rules presented in Warhammer 40,000: Escalation, the following units, listed as Lords of War in Imperial Armour Volume Two: Second Edition, are treated as follows: The Fellblade Super-‐heavy Tank (page 105) may be chosen if your primary detachment is from Codex: Space Marines, Codex: Blood Angels, Codex: Dark Angels or Codex: Space Wolves. It may also be taken in the following Imperial Armour army list: Space Marine Siege Assault Vanguard.

Dolchiate Remembrancer Posted April 27, 2014 Share Posted April 27, 2014 back to the subject at hand and where it last left off: I too will be going with multiple smaller vows as this is my first ETL. My only problem is figuring out which to do first: Assault Marines? Tactical Squad? Sternguards? So many models to paint that I think I will be priming some more to add to the list.

Memento Of Prospero Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 mmm, Fellblade for BA eh as primary eh? Looks like I might have to finish a Project I've been holding off till the summer.

Captain Semper Posted April 28, 2014 Author Share Posted April 28, 2014 Marine7312000 has a point. This errata I had overlooked... As such the Fellblade, the Typhon, the Cerberus and the T-Hawk transporter are indeed valid entries for the BAs!
