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

[elmo]

Come brothers, do not dissapoint the Lion!

 

Even if you only vow 1 character or a squad of scouts it will make a difference.

 

Any vows need to be in by the end of may so if you only intend to paint later in the ETL you must vow before then. This is what I have done, I have submitted my vow but work will not begin for 2 to 3 weeks.

 

I plan to work through my RW once the termies are done. This is because I only have to spray them black, just like the Templars ;)

 

We are the First Legion, slow to anger but once the war has begun we are unstoppable!

 

For the 1st and the Lion...

[Greenz]

I, Greenz, answer the call of E TENEBRAE LUX and vow to complete:

One 5 man deathwing squad (with 1 assault cannon, 1 chainfist ) -245 pts
One 5 man deathwing squad (with 4 thunder hammers and storm shields ) -240pts
One 10 man tactical squad (veteran sergeant with combi-plasma, one plasma cannon, and one plasma gun) -190pts

From Codex Dark Angels of total value of 675 points on or before August 1st.
Success will bring eternal glory to the First Legion and failure will doom me to bear the Badge of Shame until the year-end.

Edit: Pics will come this evening when I get home

[Interrogator Stobz]

I, Stobz, answer the call of E TENEBRAE LUX and vow to complete:

One Deathwing Knights Squad -235points

One Deathwing Landraider with Multi Melta -290points

Two Deathwing Landraider Crusaders with Multi Meltas -580points

From the Dark Angel codex of total value 1105points

Success will bring eternal glory to the First Legion and failure will doom me to bear the Badge of Shame until the year-end

Baby steps

Hoping it's okey that I've started on some models

[arizonajirt]

Semper.... Just templars posting.....

its nice to see all of you dragging in the wake of the forum that is the Angels of Death. 

The only reason we even allow the dress wearing 1st to hang around is to host the ETL. 

Semper is actually one of us anyway. we made him an official AoD member so he could wear a real badge with honor behind it.

 

All joking aside, you guys need more vows and more members involved. the Chaos legions has someone who is struggling to scrape together as many points as he can i think he has some notion that he wants to vow more than me. if he does great, if he does and finishes it, props to him. I know how intimidating those mega vows are, especially since im one of them. 

 

now hike up your skirts and get to work! (and if you guys do well, ill paint a dark angel character in honor of the battle)

Pictures to come soon, I have to dig out some forge world models out of my closet this weekend.

Oh those Templars.. I'd make tons of vows too if all I had to paint was black with smidges of white...

[Captain Semper]

Enough with the AoD insolence! Show them who's boss! The First is not to become a mockery of lesser Chapters! To war brothers - the Lion demands it!

Well done to the new additions - far from baby steps Stobz!

Updated for Pbenner and Cactus too!

And Elmo? You still owe me your total points value...

Good luck to all!

UPDATED TO THIS POINT!

[GrandMagnus]

Hah, the angels of death think themselves better? They are a union of genelines while we stand alone! Who are the brave here I ask you? The sons of Lion El'Johnson of course!

[Pbenner]

I look at it this way;

 

Win or Lose, Dark Angels still have their own codex.  RIP Codex: Black Templars

[Captain Semper]

This maybe the case, but right now MORE than half the AoD vows come from the Templar camp. That means that the Templars have more vows that all the other AoD put together. More importantly we are four vows behind the Templars (but with more pledged points)... 

 

SO LET ME MAKE THIS CLEAR: THE TEMPLARS WILL LOSE TO US THIS YEAR COME WHAT MAY!

 

I'll take up arms myself if it comes down to that!

I Captain Semper, the Master of Recruits will paint up High Marshal Helbrecht to the best of my ability if the Dark Angels score less than the Black Templars!

It is good to see that you are already planning on what you will do when you lose.

We are only focusing on doing what it takes to win.

ZEAL!

Perhaps something like this

or perhaps this?

Cheers,

Jono

A witch in any color is still a witch. The Templars have already stated their position on witches in robes, or otherwise*

Jokes on you, my Codex has a Templar on the cover.

A Codex does not paint.

[Dark Rage]

I, Dark Rage, answer the call of E TENEBRAE LUX and vow to complete two Deathwing Terminator Squads from Codex Dark Angels of total value of 495 Points on or before August 1st. Success will bring eternal glory to the First Legion and failure will doom me to bear the Badge of Shame until the year-end.

 

Will update with pictures tomorrow.

[Cyfax]

I, Cyfax, answer the call of E TENEBRAE LUX III and vow to complete from Codex: Dark Angels on or before August 1st:

Black Knights, I'll be painting them up together but to make them legal entries I split them up into 2 squads:

Company Master, I intend to use/play him with Artificer armor (he also has the fancy chest from the commander box, and fancy helm from DV set) but I'll make sure to decorate the armor to show it is indeed artificer armor (so I can also enter it in the Bellum )

Where did that shield come from?

 

Paul

[Res Ipsa Loquitur]

Poland. 

 

Scibor, specifically. Just under 6 Euro for 3, though they require moderate clean-up work.

I have six similar ones myself but I have not got around to using them yet.

 

They are good but you get a large lump of sprue on the back that has to be carefully cleaned off. The back of the shield is bare.

All I have to say is even Azrael joined the Black Templars ;)

One of the first mini's I ever painted too.

Just ignore the taunting Brothers. They will soon get bored and go away.

By the way - has anyone seen a missing Black Templar ship "Ophidium Gulf "- I believe they lost one....
