SW1 Posted April 24, 2015 Share Posted April 24, 2015 Lol ... I d realise there's bits missing. I've yet to undercoat the main gun, sponson lascannon and the walls for the troop compartment. Really wish I could go back and magnetise her but the glue was too well bonded. I only managed to get one of the sponson lascannon turrets off without snapping anything important. :( I've also basecoated the bases for 12 heavy weapons teams. Think I'm going to get some scenery sprayed to practice on. I can see myself running out of the grey airbrush paint very quickly if I don't watch it.

Sviar Posted April 25, 2015 Share Posted April 25, 2015 I feel like I'm the only sucker planning infantry... No you're not alone, I too plan to glue some infantry together. After all it's not an IG force without the massed boots on the ground and the millions of Lasgun beams blinding the foul xenos like the strongets sun times two. On the table top it translates to one wound for you oponent to save. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JaM_TW Posted April 25, 2015 Share Posted April 25, 2015 Is it possible to pledge 'just' 10 men with 1 special weapon and 1 hweaponteam? Or do I need a CCS and 2 of those 10 men to have a legal entry? And, if I plan to use them as vets (legal entry), can I still pledge hweapon teams..? Because I have a bunch of old minis who MIGHT see some paint, soon. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SW1 Posted April 25, 2015 Share Posted April 25, 2015 Running off previous ETL's the different bits (squads) that make up a platoon are all treated as seep rate units for the pledge. So you could do multiple HWS or SWS without pledging to paint up the usual grunt squads and command squads you'd need to have if you were gaming. Same as transports can be pledged without the units riding them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JaM_TW Posted April 25, 2015 Share Posted April 25, 2015 Yeah, I thought/hoped so. Last ETLs I was painting DAs, hope to do some IG now. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WarriorFish Posted April 29, 2015 Share Posted April 29, 2015 Not long to go until the starting pistol goes off! Has everyone thought about their first vow? Due to some issues outside of my control I will not get the Shadowsword ready for the starting blocks so I will probably start out with the Ratlings. They should keep me busy until I can have the Shadowsword ready so at least so I shouldn't be losing any ETL time. As I said before, it's all about managing your effective vowing time ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+DAN+ Posted April 29, 2015 Share Posted April 29, 2015 Went ahead and got an airbrush n compressor,should be waiting at the front door when I get home from work tomorrow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toxichobbit Posted April 29, 2015 Share Posted April 29, 2015 My first vow will be a lone Commissar. I want a quick vow to get me started before I start on something more substantial and having a vow completed early on is great motivation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
our_baz Posted April 29, 2015 Share Posted April 29, 2015 Ogryns and Bullgryn's and attached Priest and Commissar. Is going to be my first vow....just need to finish assembling the final Bullgryn and get then all undercoated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WarriorFish Posted April 29, 2015 Share Posted April 29, 2015 Good to see the drill square being filled up, ready to march to war! This should be a good year, I'm looking forward to seeing what we get done :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Father Mehman Posted April 29, 2015 Share Posted April 29, 2015 Dear Emperor... the new Knight variants are coming. Hide your kids, hide your wife, etc. The rumours and leaks come out right after I finish up some Ogryns. Oh well, one more vow won't kill me !

elmo Posted April 29, 2015 Share Posted April 29, 2015 My first vow in.... 2 sleeps.... will be the Baneblade. You know it makes sense ;) Followed by 3 Medusa then the Wyvern then I will be open to the whims of fate. Remember Guardsmen, The Emperor expects your full commitment and the Commissariat will be there to enforce The Emperors reasonable demand of 100% completion rate.

CommissarZac Posted April 29, 2015 Share Posted April 29, 2015 well if all goes well I may be able to vow some skitarii. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SW1 Posted April 30, 2015 Share Posted April 30, 2015 Well I'm still stripping stuff. My first vow will include the super heavy and maybe a few grunts if I can get them ready in time. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WarriorFish Posted April 30, 2015 Share Posted April 30, 2015 You can only vow for one faction remember Zac, so pick the one you have the most models to work on :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SW1 Posted April 30, 2015 Share Posted April 30, 2015 Thinking about it can any imperial army include assassins the same as any can include knights? I came across my collection of them last night. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cod Posted April 30, 2015 Share Posted April 30, 2015 Last years ETL allowed for official 'dataslates' which included for example, the Cypher figure. They were included as long as they belonged to the same 'faction'. If dataslates are again usable then Assassins are a yes, but... as a fair few things have changed in WH40k the ETL could change too. It will be interesting to see if dataslates will still be included this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JaM_TW Posted April 30, 2015 Share Posted April 30, 2015 I will probably vow a single metal catachan squad (10 models), after that who knows: ratlings, a commie ehm.. commissar, pcs or another catachan squad... It all depends on the first vow/squad. If I can find the inspiration/time/patience it will be allright, otherwise it will just be 1 vow/squad. And of course I/we go for 100% completion, right..?

WarriorFish Posted April 30, 2015 Share Posted April 30, 2015 All questions will be answered tomorrow for the official start, so not long before all is clear :tu: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SW1 Posted April 30, 2015 Share Posted April 30, 2015 We know nothing other than 100% completion in my house. ;) Will be good to get underway. Really should have got everything undercoated by now but stripping has been a pain. The end is in sight with the stripping and I have a super heavy to crack on with. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toxichobbit Posted April 30, 2015 Share Posted April 30, 2015 If Dataslates are allowed again, this opens up Legion of the Damned as well. Just in case anyone has a squad lying around unpainted like I do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ldorte Posted April 30, 2015 Share Posted April 30, 2015 Got 3 Leman Russ, a sentinel, several infantry squads and a Knight this year. Very much looking forward to getting some paint on the knight as I've not done anything like it before :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scatmandoo Posted April 30, 2015 Share Posted April 30, 2015 The Baneblade is just about ready. Just need to try and sort out some guns the previous owner put on upside-down and then a complete repaint is in order. When should we expect the official t&c's?
