I don't think they'll be able to lend a hand... They must be marines because they're not ARMY... Oh look everyone it's the Salamanders! No need to get up in arms... No wonder why Salamanders don't use grenades...they can't arm them! Ok I'll stop now.

Kor'Vesh Posted January 14, 2015 Author Share Posted January 14, 2015 Great work guys. OMG, that is a beautiful tank, thanks for sharing it here man! Wyvern, as a proponent of bright(ish) green sallies, I really love your blue. If you keep that standard up you'll have a great looking primarch! Keep us posted. I've finished my rapier platform and apothecary now, no time to do pics yet, but hopefully they'll be up tomorrow. O, and yes, pledge more Raktra and DimDim, you can do it!

zedmeister Posted January 14, 2015 Share Posted January 14, 2015 Progress has been slow the last few days. Didn't get as much done over the weekend as I wanted to. However, the first 5 Alpha's are getting close to being finished: http://zedmeister.co.uk/resimg/hh/AL-progress-130115.jpg Base colour and rubber hosing finished. Started on the eyes and silvering. What's left to do (in no particular order): Silver details Edge highlights Finish Eyes Bases Weathering Hopefully, by the weekend, they should be based and ready for weathering. After that, it's the next 10 Alphas followed by arms and weapons (and hopefully shoulder pads) for the Alphas and White Scars.

Slips Posted January 14, 2015 Share Posted January 14, 2015 Well, if its me, Struman, DimDim and Lion, we've got a pretty big Imperial Fists representation (as it should be, if me trying to convert peeps is anything to go by ) and together, with the power of our RoW Granting us +1T for being side by side, we shall crush the traitors!

Brother Vidius Posted January 15, 2015 Share Posted January 15, 2015 My hatred of the Imperial Fists grows(as if that was even possible)! I'm off work for the next couple of days so I'll be soldiering on with my pledge. I've built my Venator and should get it primed today. Second Predator has been given a black wash, so details and some hazard stripes and then that'll be completed!

Kor'Vesh Posted January 15, 2015 Author Share Posted January 15, 2015 January – Week Two We’re approaching the halfway point of the month now, and the teams continue to grow, with Owl and Moon Guy throwing his hat into the ring for the Loyalists. A pledge of a Sicaran Venator, Legion Falchion and single Castellax is nothing to sniff at either. As things stand its 8 traitors versus 17 loyalists, and the loyalists have pledged more too – anymore followers of the big bad want to join in? We now have 241 models pledged for January, worth a staggering 406 points… Impressive guys, but we are always open to more entrants and more pledges. Progress has been great too, but we still have less than ¼ of the available points scored, so there is lots to play for. Here is a recap of the competitors and pledges. Completed vows and sub-vows are in green. The Traitors - followers of Horus - the heretics, followers of the warp (8 members) Brother Vidius – The IVth Legion Astartes, Iron Warriors: 10 Close combat based Tactical marines, 10 Cataphractii, Spartan assault tank, 4 Rhinos, 3 Predators, Sicaran Venator, Medusa & a cataphractii Iron Father Gizur – The XVIth Legion Astartes, Word Bearers: Praetor, Moritat, Predator and Vindicator Der_H – The IIIrd Legion Astartes, Emperor’s Children: Land Speeder Fire Golem – The XVIth Legion Astartes, Sons of Horus: Contemptor Wyvern – The VIIIth Legion Astartes, Night Lords: Konrad Curze Laborer DNA – The XIIth Legion Astartes, World Eaters: 5 Rampagers Lukee - The VIIIth Legion Astartes, Night Lords: 5 Man Terror Squad Galron – The IVth Legion Astartes, Iron Warriors: 5 Tyrant Siege Terminators The Loyalists - beloved of the Emperor - the loyal sons (17 members) StruManChu – The VIIth Legion Astartes, Imperial Fists: Master of Signals, 5 Cataphractii, 4 Breachers Castiel – The XVIIIth Legion Astartes, Salamanders: Cataphractii praetor, 5 Firedrakes, 10 tactical marines Kor’Vesh – The XVIIIth Legion Astartes, Salamanders: Vulkan, one Grav Rapier and an apothecary Barabbas Sogolon – The VIth and XVIIIth Legion Astartes, Unification Era (loyalists): one space wolf and one Salamander captain Reyner – The IVth Legion Astartes, Loyalist Iron Warriors: 1 Sicaran (Ghost of Iron) Kurama – The XIIth Legion Astartes, Loyalist World Eaters: 10 Assault marines and a Solar Auxillia Lord Commander 1 Terminator Praetor and 5 terminators LionOfJudah – The VIIth Legion Astartes, Imperial Fists – Iron Fists: Assemble 10 tactical marines (worth 3 points) Jeremy1391 – The XIXth Legion Astartes, Raven Guard: Aquilla Strong Point (vehicle points) Slipstreams – The XVIIIth Legion Astartes, Salamanders: One heavy flamer cataphractii AND - 15 Tartaros terminators and one Primus Medicae in Terminator armour Ironwrought Huw – The Xth Legion Astartes, Iron Hands: One terminator Iron Father Atia – The XVIIIth Legion Astartes, Salamanders: Five pyroclasts and nine Firedrakes Mind of Metal – The Xth Legion Astartes, Iron Hands: Castramen Orth on foot, 5 Tactical marines, 1 Thallax Leoric – The Xth Legion Astartes, Iron Hands: 5 Tactical Marines Stormborn – The VIIth Legion Astartes, Imperial Fists: 1 Centurion Daemon2027 – The Solar Auxillia: 2 lasrifle sections, one flamer section, two storm sections and a leman russ incinerator Dim Dim – The VIIth Legion Astartes, Imperial Fists: Five Destroyers Owl and Moon Guy – The Xth Legion Astartes, Iron Hands: Sicaran Venator, Legion Falchion and a single Castellax The double agents – probably Alpharius and Omegron… (2 members) Raktra – The XIth Legion Astartes, Beserkers of Uran: Dorran Kldier – Special Character AND – The Xth Legion Astartes, Iron Hands: 5 Breachers AND – Castramen Orth Zedmeister – The Vth Legion Astartes, White Scars: 5 Marines AND – The XXth Legion Astartes. Alpha Legion: 15 Marines Current scores Lots of progress on all of these pledges already, with the loyalists’ superior numbers and smaller pledges working in their favour. Pledges – Traitors 1 – 5* Loyalists *One additional pledge is currently at risk due to a second vow being in progress The double agent, widely known as Raktra, but clearly Omegron himself, has completed three pledges, one for Horus – his XIth legion character Doran – and two for the emperor adding Castramen Orth to his previously completed 5 Xth legion Breachers. Add to this recent completions by Ironwrought Huw, with his fantastic Iron Father, Slipstreams, who was bullied into painting his MotL Salamander, and myself (Kor’Vesh), with the primarch Vulkan, apothecary Ation and Grav Rapier platform, and the loyalists are in a commanding position. However, those damned Iron Warriors keep coming… Score – Traitors 53 – 40 Loyalists Brother Vidius’ work on his huge Iron Warrior pledge has once again ensured that the traitors hold the lead in terms of work done! In fact they’ve developed a sizeable lead (the gap is the size of my whole pledge !). This week Brother Vidius completed eight excellent Cataphractii terminators (with hazard stripes, thank you!) along with a predator and a rhino. He is single handedly responsible for 50 of his team’s points, and is beating the loyalists all on his own. Bravo sir! Other model completions for the loyalists came from Mind of Metal, with an addition legionary and another Thallax added to his force, and Owl and Moon Guy with an unsurprisingly stunning Sicaran Venator. Progress That’s not the whole story though as a lot of vows are moving apace. Atia continues to blaze a bold trail for the XVIIIth, with a unit of Firedrakes well under way – please give them arms though Atia, I’m starting to worry that you are modelling your Sallies after your Death Guard lay into them at Istvaan! StruManChu’s Fists pledge is moving along nicely too, Kurama is toying with World Eaters, Plasma cannons and a titan while The Hydra has almost built his 70+ Solar Auxillia models. In fact the only loyalists lacking progress are Castiel (sorry if I’m wrong brother) and Reyner, who may have been gunned down while watching TV by the very Sicaran he pledged to paint :D A similar tale can be told for the traitors – only Galron and Laborer DNA have yet to report progress. Wyvern has concocted and impressive blue armour for the Night Haunter, Lukee has almost completed the first member of his terror squad, and Der_H has made huge progress with his Emperors’ Children speeder. AND the one and only Fire Golem has painted his Sons of Horus contemptor in a perfect grey green. Who’d have thunk it? Keep it up guys, I think both teams should breach 100 points this month at this rate, and that would be an exceptional effort! We also have the potential for everyone to contribute something to the score – lets have no one going missing if we can avoid it!
