ETL IV (Propaganda, motivation and preperation Thread)

Recommended Posts

I've not participated in ETL before, but I pledge myself here. Biggest things I have lined up are a Sicaran, a full Predator squadron with command tank, a Land Raider Phobos, and a pair of Deimos plasma preds. May be able to get the third predator for that squad before end of summer, however. Depending on releases and/or my ingenuity, may be able to add a Praetor and command squad to that list.

OKAY, I AM DOING IT, AGGH

I Alpharius.. Pledge:

Lighting bearers.. and a *bleep* ton to be exact

I pledge:
Icarion (count as mortarion)
5 deathshroud (with melta bombs, duhh)
20 tacticals (sarge with combi and AA, and a vox)
5 terminators, with 1 chainfist and 4 power fists (command squad!!)
3 comptemptors with: 2 power fists, dual kheres, dual lascannon
8 man lascannon squad
5 man destroyers
5 grave wardens
10 Oni (count as 10 emperors children palatine blades)

ALSO:
3 solar auxillia vellatris storm sections
2 lasfire sections
And a command squad

ALSO:
A magos
5 thallax

Ill work out points as soon as I have ALL the models tongue.png

EDIT: I just did the (horrible :P) maths, and this pledge is 4200 (exact!) points!

Hey guys - apologies if my points plan incited, or sounded like, beardiness! I'm essentially thinking very much along the lines of Kurama. All good painting, all for fun, just look out for a small, fair edge here and there. Plus I got excited!

 

It sounds like there are going to be some awesome vows, and we'll make a real impression, whatever happens. It's gonna be beautiful to watch.

 

AO - so we can't pledge until the official thread is launched in May, but the stuff you have lined up sounds amazing. I wouldn't pledge it all in one fell swoop though - look at more manageable chunks. What we need to do is make sure our percentage completions are really high. Remember last year at least it was only FULLY completed vows that counted (and only from players who completed all vows) - the etl is a much crueler master than the casual 30k hobby challenge!

I think there's a fine line to be trod between clever pledging and beardiness. If you have 20 tac marines to pledge then 2 squads of 10 is probably, but saying its 20 seekers is probably pushing it a bit far. To be honest though, win or lose I think we are all just looking forwards to seeing the awesome models people will churn out. Its going to be a Primarch-fest to rival the triumph at Ullanor by the sounds of it!

Question: I'm getting a Baneblade and Shadowsword to go with my IG forces. Obviously, these don't fit into my Alpha Legion army list, but I'd still like to get them built and done. Can I pledge them here, for a possible Solar Auxilia stand-in force?

If they are available to SA, you can ;)

Predator, Scorpius, Contemptor, handful of marines. I could probably pick up some more marines, but I'm kind of a slow painter, so even if I had more stuff to paint I don't think I could do it in the time allowed.

Kitwulfen is painting....whaaaaaa?!

I've actually been painting this whole time, just not my own things. tongue.png One of my friends asked me to convert and paint two Dreadknights for him, and build and paint his Knight Paladin. That's been eating a lot of my hobby time.

Kizzdougs...you need a Reaver Titan! And maybe 2 Warhounds..that should be a good start lol :-)

 

Now we need to figure out what you need for june and july haha

That sounds like a pretty reasonable plan. Let me just see how much I can get for one of my kidneys on ebay...

 

I'll probably end up doing a selection of Consuls/Praetors and maybe another Contemptor or Fulgrim. My Veteran squads also need transports.

I'm pretty keen to join again. The only problem is deciding what to paint...

I'll probably need to put in a FW order but I just can't decide what I want to get tongue.png

Why not a dereddeo?

I'm seriously considering either a Deredeo or Sicaran. The Deredeo just seems a bit 'ugly' for the III Legion aesthetic. Maybe I'll just have to get one and pimp it up.

Well think of crafting a nice helm some rolling script and making it like walking art.

Siciran is all well and good but the dereddeo is the new shiny and EC love the shiny
