Captain Semper Posted April 30, 2014 Share Posted April 30, 2014 +++ETL III – IMPERIAL GUARD STRATEGIUM+++ http://fortressofunforgiven.homestead.com/ETL_2014_Header_06.jpg Proud servants of the Emperor, This is it! After scouting in the previous ETL now is the time to make your presence felt – the hard way! The innumerable millions of the Imperial Guard will march to the enemy supported by tank columns and artillery in quantities unprecedented. The sledgehammer of the Emperor will level all enemy resistance and declare the warriors of humanity as: PRIMUS INTER PARES! ++++++++++++++++++++++ Welcome to ETL III and the Imperial Guard Strategium! Here is the home for those who want to participate in the ETL putting their weight behind the Codex: Astra Militarum and Militarum Tempestus! And keep in mind that the Imperial Guard will not fight alone! They have the full backing of other Imperial agencies, so expect the support of the devout Adepta Sororitas, the purest of soul Grey Knights and the Mighty Mechanicum of Mars. All those forums will stand as one to face their rivals, Loyalists and Traitors alike!The rules of ETL III can be found below: E TENEBRAE LUX III RULES So what purpose does the Strategium serve? Well, its official function includes the following: Post vows & declare completions. This is very important as placing the vows elsewhere will create unnecessary confusion and lead to mistakes. Also if you do not report the completion here, your status will not be updated. Participation tables. Here I will be updating the rosters of participation so make sure you see your name is listed and that your status is correct - and if not, notify me. Furthermore, given the diversity of the Angels of Death faction, I will group all participants according to the forum of origination. Post your pictures. Remember, we need at least two – one “before” and one “after” but feel free to post as many WIP pictures as you like! Weekly updates. This is where I’ll be posting every week an update of the event in general so the frater can keep track of what is going on in the wider picture. You are also welcome to use this thread to encourage each other, devise strategies, discuss the developments of the ETL and of course ask questions. For the latter you can also PM me. ALL WHO MAKE A VOW AND ARE LISTED BELOW HAVE EARNED THE RIGHT TO WEAR THE OATH OF MOMENT:http://fortressofunforgiven.homestead.com/ETL_2014_Banner_V2_01_Oath_of_Moment.jpgBefore we kick off I’d like to bring your attention to the fact that his year, apart from the Codex: Imperial Guard you may choose one of the following FW lists for your vows if you so wish:Additional army lists:* Elysian Drop Troops Army List from Imperial Armour Volume 3 – The Taros Campaign (2nd Ed.)* Detachment D-99 Elysian Drop troop Veterans from Imperial Armour Volume 4 – The Amphelion Project* DKoK Siege Regiment from Imperial Armour Volume 5 – The Siege of Vraks – Part 1 (6th ed. pdf update)* DKoK Armoured Battlegroup from Imperial Armour Volume 7 – The Siege of Vraks – Part 3* Elysian Drop Troop Army List from Imperial Armour Volume 8 – Raid on Kastorel Novem* DKoK Assault Brigade Army from Imperial Armour Volume 12 – The Fall of OrpheusSo with no further ado, let’s begin!IMPERIAL GUARD - LIST OF PARTICIPANTSThe list is alphabetical.

RolandTHTG Posted April 30, 2014 Share Posted April 30, 2014 Before some of the traitor regiments vow to the Forces of the Imperium, I will merely point out that the FW Tyrant's legion and all 3 Vrak's Renegade lists can be used for vows in the Chaos forums (and can be intermixed with CSM and Demon vows, for chaos is ever-flexible). Do Not Lend Your Strength to the Lackeys of the False Emperor!

Super heavies are in? THRONE OF TERRA. Do I stick with the original Platoon plan or leap straight into a Baneblade? Emperor's biscuits, why am I out of the country this weekend? Who's idea was that, I'll have them shot!

Dark_Apostle_XVII Posted April 30, 2014 Share Posted April 30, 2014 And so commences my first ever ETL Vow. I will begin by apologising to all my fellow traitors over at the Chaos Strategium but this year I will be representing the Imperial Guard. Whilst next year, I will likely be making the move over to the Chaos Legios, and as tempting as it is to join Chaos today as use the Forge World lists, my loyalties must remain here. As a new member of the B&C, the support and positive feedback on my very first project log (Traitor Guard) I have received in this forum has been astounding. The members here have definitely inspired me to keep up my painting progress (they know who they are and I thank them) and will certainly be the ones whose encouragement will get me through my first vow; it will be a pleasure to paint alongside them. Consider it an Alpha Legion-esque tactic where I shall attempt to convert a few more over to Chaos next year after they see the wonders of Chaos... ;) Without further adieu... I Dark_Apostle_XVII answer the call of E TENEBRAELUX and vow to complete: 1 Leman Russ with Heavy Bolter Sponsons, Dozer Bladeand Camo-Netting – represented by Daemonic possession protecting it. SeeChained up hatch and tentacles etc below, if this is unacceptable please amend as necessary and deduct 15 points from my total. (190 Points), https://www.flickr.com/photos/122948524@N05/14073888824/ https://www.flickr.com/photos/122948524@N05/14070254652/ 3 Bullgryns with Power Mauls and Brute Shields(190), 1 Ministorum Priest (25), from Codex: Astra Militarum of total value 405 Points, on or before August 1st. Success will bring eternal glory to my comrades in the Imperial Guard Forum and failure will doom me to bear the Badge of Shame until the year-end.

Kierdale Posted April 30, 2014 Share Posted April 30, 2014 I hearby vow, upon the honour of father Kierdale himself, that I will complete the following units by the end of ETL3: First up: Company command squad, 4x plasma gun, officer w/ 2x plasma pistol. 150pts. Another company command squad: 4x flamer, officer with bolt pistol, laurels of command, blade of conquest. 131pts. A third company command squad: 4x melta gun, officer with blade of conquest and tactical auto-reliquary of Tiberius 150pts. One triple mortar heavy weapon squad. 60pts. And a couple of infantry squads: squad one: grenade launcher, auto-cannon. 65pts. Squad two: grenade launcher, missile launcher. 70pts. And last but not least two models which won't earn me points as they're not parts of squads, but I'm going to do them anyway: a standard bearer. And a vox carrier. Thread here: http://www.bolterandchainsword.com/topic/269424-shrineworld-garrison-priest-completed-49/page-11?do=findComment&comment=3669392 601pts in total. And, should I fail in this vow, I shall construct the statue I have of Father Kierdale (the priest model from Inquisitor) not as the glorious icon it should be...but rather desecrated and defiled.

WarriorFish Posted April 30, 2014 Share Posted April 30, 2014 Excellent, more heroic pledges to the cause! Some great conversions there Kier, especially the non-vow models That's almost 450pts mikey, which is quite a big vow. Guardsmen are quite cheap remember, it's the burden and handicap we must carry. Just an excuse to paint more tanks really, as if I needed one As such I've decided to paint up the Baneblade. What better way to lead the ETL charge? I'll be going from the Apoc II entry for point and options values, if they're not different to the Escalation one? I better pop into GW to pick up another pot or two of Castellan Green! I have every intention of doing the Platoon too, my aim is to get three vows done this year if I can For the Guard and Emperor!

These are my very first steps into the world of the glorious Imperial Guard and if time and lusts allows, I will pledge more men for the meat grinder.

[img=http://fortressofunforgiven.homestead.com/ETL_2014_Banner_V2_01_Oath_of_Moment.jpg] I, WarriorFish, answer the call of E TENEBRAE LUX and vow to complete 1 Baneblade from the Imperial Guard of total value 580pts on or before August 1st. Success will bring eternal glory to Regiment and failure will doom me to bear the Badge of Shame until the year-end. Vow 1: 1 Baneblade - 1x sponson pair - 1x pintle heavy stubber 580pts If I fail to complete all my vows I will assemble and paint an Eldars Farseer! Yes, I'm that serious about it!

Cheers How I did it was to click on the image at the start of this thread which brought up a box which had a 'save' option. I clicked that and it opened a new tab of the image and from that I copied the page address and pasted it in the signature part of the 'edit my profile' option using the insert image button. I did it while on my PS3's browser so I'm not sure if the steps will be the same but if you still have trouble then I'm sure a more tech-savy member would be more than happy to help.
