Good to see the Blood Angels faction has finally awakened from their slumber.

 

I will make you this challenge: If the Blood Angels can top the Dark Angels in points I will paint up an original Blood Angels Captain and post it in your forum.

Sanguinary Guard.

Hello Guys, I am going to take up the challenge, in fact its mostly cause I am going to make some time this summer to paint, plus I am getting the chance to play in a Campaign during the summer at my local store as well, where we will start with a 1000 point list and work gradually over 8 weeks to an 1850 point army.   Its a chance to paint as I go, and it starts in two weeks, which then gives me 10 weeks of my summer break to paint and play which in turn should help keep me motivated in painting as well.   

 

Since I have one unit that is midway through the painting progress, I will be finishing that up as I progress my vow models.    So if you see an extra tac squad in my WIP shots, thats cause I have already gotten them started and will be finishing them up as I finish up some of my other models.  

 

As for my Vow. 

I, Midnight Angel, rise to the challenge of E TENEBRAE LUX and vow to complete the following Blood Angels units, Painted in my Crimson Scythes Successor color Schemes: A unit of Death Company, 10 strong with jump packs, one power fist, and two power weapons. I will also paint up a 6 strong tactical squad that consists of a sergeant with combi plasma and a plasma Cannon, as well as a Razor back transport for said squad armed with twin Linked Assault Cannon.   This small lot will also include a captain with jump pack, relic blade and storm shield.   Total value: 610 points. This vow will be completed on or before August 1st, 2015. Success will bring eternal glory to Sanguinius and his sons! Failure will doom me to bear the Badge of the Oathbreaker until the year-end.

As you can see, the bases for most have been drybrushed in grey, it was as much as I have done on them, and the Razorback has been primed and given a red stripe in spray primer.   The captain still needs to have the sculpting done to his base, and well, the tac squad is still one guy short.  I have to assemble that guy completely after I go through my bitz and order a few more blank shoulder pads.    The former six man, i realized I had assembled as a Plasma gunner and well, its not legal, so I need an extra guy to fill in the ranks.  At least I have a sub for when the plasma cannon isn't needed.    I will be updating this in my blog thread, and I will add the WIP prepainted shot of the assembled marine as soon as he gets done with his time spent training in the 10th company and the techmarines finish blessing his power armor suit and weaponry.  

Also on a note, I plan to bring glory this time, as my last attempt at the ETL I failed and had to wear the badge of shame.  

Well, I've had a Sunday Funday, so let's do this:

I, Lucumon, rise to the challenge of E TENEBRAE LUX and vow to complete one Sanguinary Priest and one scout from Codex:Blood Angels of total value 71 60points on or before August 1st, 2015. Success will bring eternal glory to my Legion, Chapter, Successors and brothers. Failure will doom me to bear the Badge of the Oathbreaker until my vow is fully completed. That shall be my penitence.

(Edit: I'm still doing the lone scout.)

I think we all owe Jolemai a debt of gratitude. His dedication to recruitment and motivation has been second to none.

I propose granting the office of Chaplain to Jolemai, for his efforts in dedication, motivation, and fervour-monging.

I was so sad when I added AoD ETL points pledged is over 40k and we have 11-12k... unsure.png

If we can make sure to keep up our completion rates up we can still win this. Don't lose heart. Also the real point of this competetion is to get us to paint.

I, Ashriel, rise to the challenge of E TENEBRAE LUX and vow to complete one Captain Karlaen, One Librarian in TDA, Five Assault Terminators (x5 TH/SS), Five Assault Terminators (x2 TH/SS), One furioso Dreadnought (Frag Cannon and Magna Grapple), Five Vanguard Veterans (SH&Relic Blade, LCx2, Plasma Pistol&SS, Plasma Pistol&Chainsword, Chainsword&SS) and One Storm Raven (Typhoon ML and Hurricane Bolters) from Codex:Blood Angels of total value 1330 points on or before August 1st, 2015. Success will bring eternal glory to the Angels Vermillion and the Sons of Sanguinius and failure will doom me to bear the Badge of the Oathbreaker until the year-end.

Hi Lucumon and welcome to the ETL! The BAs are definitely putting up a fight this year and I'm happy to see the ranks closing! However as it was pointed out before you can only pledge legal units - and a single scout does not cut it I'm afraid. So what I have done is to just account for the Sang Priest with the bolt pistol for 61 pts.

Good luck!

Do not despair son of the Angel. there are many factors that will lead to victory. The single most important one is to complete what you've said you'll do. Having smaller first vows is also a fairly good indication that there will be more re-fills as people are likely to complete the first vow and do so faster too. You don't know how this will play out, but you can do your bit and do it well... ;)

UPDATED TO THIS POINT!
