+++E Tenebrae Lux III - Blood Angels Strategium+++

[Captain Semper]

Fantastic work guys!

Voxxel: I'd like to echo everybody else here in saying this is truly outstanding quality! Bravo!

James: that's one brutal piece of hardware!

Jolemai: You'd better mate, I really want to see this and I'd like to avoid any last minute disappointment!

UPDATED TO THIS POINT!

[Jolemai]

Just over 27 hours to complete 18 vows and avoid the wooden spoon!

[knife&fork]

Cutting it close....

 

So I've discovered that I didn't have as many power axes as I thought, so my priest will have to make with a chainsword for now. To make up for this I added an extra plasma gun to the assault squad and painted an extra assault marine. Hope that's OK.

 

 

Scouts primed....

First batch of scouts finished, dusty and grimy like they've been out in the field for some time. Note the WYSIWYG melta bomb :D

More pis and some fluff in my WIP thread.

 

Come on to all those of you who still have vows to complete!

[Captain Semper]

Fantastic completion mate - a glorious result! Congratulation for completing in the nick of time - the quality of this vow was certainly worth the wait!

Right onto vow 2..

[Phadeout]

I, Phadeout, answer the call of E TENEBRAE LUX and vow to complete 5 Terminators with Chainfist and Assault Cannon,  for the Blood Angels of
total value of 230pts on or before August 1st. Success will bring eternal glory to Sanguinius and The Blood Angels and failure will doom me to
bear the Badge of Shame until the year-end.

 

I've done them already - stupid phone problems meant I couldn't get my 1st vow in until the nick of time but here are the pics for vow 2

There we go - obviously I'm done for this year - gutted I didn't get a chance to paint up my Knight for this but nevermind I suppose having another child was slightly more important - at least that's what her indoors reckons ;).  Come on any stragglers who can make it in time - let's get those points in.

[marine7312000]

[marine7312000]

Nice going Phadeout and marine7312000!!! 

 

@captain semper, did you get the completion of Phadeout's second vow? 

[knife&fork]

Something came up and I probably won't be able to make that vow

It's the badge of shame for me, better luck next year.

Good going all of you who have contributed this year!

THE ETL III IS OFFICIALLY OVER...

This is the official close of ETL III.

No more completions will be accepted beyond this point.

You are free to post comments, pictures or questions but no further completions will be accepted.

...THE DOORS HAVE CLOSED!!!

Congratulations to all participants - It has been a monumental event!

Now I will compile the results and update the first page in all Strategiums posting the usual "updated to this point" once finished. Feel free to visit the Strategiums and let me know if you spot an omission or a mistake so I can correct it.

I will prepare the Final Report that hopefully will be ready on Sunday, August 3rd (so people will have a good Sunday read).

Until then relax and enjoy your weekend!

[Memento Of Prospero]

Great effort sons of the Angel

[Captain Semper]

Alright guys - first page is updated. Please check that you are correctly represented - I want to get everything right!
