ETLIII - Return of the Templars!


Recommended Posts

I have a few minis that are currently sitting in Simple Green (and will be stripped tomorrow), and a few where I'm just going to paint over the lesser colors with The Black. Then I shall make my vow.

...and by "a few", I mean "roughly 6,000 points worth in total". tongue.png

NO PITY! NO REMORSE! NO FEAR!

Good to see you Khornehunter! Glad to see you are sporting the proper colors and symbol in your avatar again ;).  Now get rid of that Librarium fail and make your oath of moment :lol:

 

6K points is huge brother, just remember don't bite off more than you can chew ;)  

 

 

I see that the crazy RG player who pledged 10K is supposedly almost half done already. That would be a huge boost for us.  My wife has to do some work the next two nights so I hope to get lots done on my Storm Eagle and LRC. 

Well done Andhil!  Not only was your completion speedy, but it looks awesome too!

 

I've made some comparitively small progress - the metallics on the Felblade's turret are done, just waiting for a nuln oil wash after I've painted over the primer & highlighted the black.  Then I'll start on the main body.  Hopefully I'll be able to post a completion early next week - then on to the next vow!

I plan on getting my first vow done this weekend. Debating on how to dish out the rest of my vows... 

 

I've got a little something special planned for a 3rd vow to mark both the 3rd ETL, and to celebrate the Angels of Death alliance this year ;)

Thank you for your kind words Brothers, I pushed myself to finish that vow to give us an edge, and a needed morale boost for our allies. Let the enemy know that we are not all words. devil.gif

I'm gonna get started on my second vow this evening, I might get it done this weekend, but I'll be happy if the Raven gets finished by sunday.

I've got my current stuff grouped up into 4 vows, so I have one vow left, should I go impulse shopping anywhere in the next few months.....laugh.png

(Because to be honest, a man should always seek to improve on past achievements, and my total pts is lower than last year. This bugs me.)

I got really damn close today... I actually caught myself thinking "what will push us over the 10k raven guard" I'm getting mildly obsessed Got maybe 4k points siting here (the glaive isn't allowed on team Templar as by the captains decree). and I have stuff flying in to add an additional 500 points. Yet still my mind goes "there is so much time, get us more".

My faith in our victory is bottomless, Brothers my wallet however, is not. tongue.png

I was thinking more towards Sternguard, more Crusaders and more Neophytes. Stuff I use! Maybe another Land Raider (Crusader?). 2 is good, 3 is better (but 4 is awesome!)biggrin.png I'll think it over, lots of time left, but first, I've got some vows to complete!

From a financial standpoint, I want to point out that Ace isn't exactly a great role model...

Purely from a financial standpoint, though. msn-wink.gif

It's only money, you'll earn more next week ;) (well unless your unemployed like I am :( )

@Andhil: Yeah I'm not even sure it's worth it on a points to dollars ratio anyway. Certainly not on a giant pain the censored.gif ratio with all that resin!

@Honda: Brother I really LOL'd at your video posts in the DA forum. I tried to match your wit with a post of my own.

I gotta say guys, I'm really excited about this. At first I was thinking that I would do a vow or two and be done, but I think I'm really going to ramp it up(depending on how fast I can get the SE done) as I've got probably another 2K worth of stuff I can add.

Funny you should mention a Thunderhawk....all I'm saying is watch the vow thread... ;)

1st year on the ETL, just posted my starting vow, copied below

'I Titan 1975 answer the call of E TENEBRAE LUX and vow to complete

1x Emperors Champion 140 pts

kick off for me isn't guaranteed until tuesday unfortunately I have to work the Bank holiday Weekend...whistlingW.gif waiting...

An eerie silence falls over the fortress and an sudden feeling of terror passed through the ranks of the Heretics.  Moments later, the sky darkens and dozens of drop pods slam down in front of helpless defenders, knocking them to the ground.  A lone figure emerges from the closest pod and stoically takes in the scene in front of him.  After a moment of silence, a deep voice reverberates across the battlefield.


"I, Marshal Laeroth of the Black Templars, am here to grant you the Emperor's Judgement.  Prepare to die."

 

The field erupts into chaos as the Heretics start to flee.

 

Marshal Laeroth turns to his brethren and declares: "Brothers, the Emperor demands we return this world to His light.  Leave none alive."


 

I, Marshal Laeroth, Master of the Njesta Crusade of the Black Templars, answer the call of E TENEBRAE LUX. I vow to complete:

 

  • Marshal Laeroth (Chapter Master w/ Relic Blade, Shield Eternal, and Artificer Armour)  [225]
  • Eternus Lux Lucis (Land Raider Crusader w/ Multi-Melta)  [260]

 

Total:  [485] points

 



These units shall be from Codex: Space Marines Black Templars, with a total value of 485 points, in the Emperor's Name. I vow to complete these units on, or before, August 1st, 2014. Success will bring eternal glory to the Black Templars, whilst failure is not an option.

Slay the Heretic, Burn the Witch.
