+++E Tenebrae Lux IV - Space Wolves Strategium+++

[Captain Semper]

http://fortressofunforgiven.homestead.com/ETL_2015_Forum_Header_03_SW.jpg

 
Welcome to ETL IV and the Space Wolves Strategium! Here is the home for those who want to participate in the ETL putting their weight behind the Codex: Space Wolves!
 
The rules of ETL IV can be found below:
 

E TENEBRAE LUX IV RULES

 

 

So what purpose does the Strategium serve? Well, its official function includes the following:

• Post vows & declare completions. This is very important as placing the vows elsewhere will create unnecessary confusion and lead to mistakes. Also if you do not report the completion here, your status will not be updated.
• Participation tables. Here I will be updating the rosters of participation so make sure you see your name is listed and that your status is correct - and if not, notify me. Furthermore, given the diversity of the Angels of Death faction, I will group all participants according to the forum of origination.
• Post your pictures. Remember, we need at least two – one “before” and one “after” but feel free to post as many WIP pictures as you like!
• Weekly updates. This is where I’ll be posting every week an update of the event in general so the frater can keep track of what is going on in the wider picture.
• You are also welcome to use this thread to encourage each other, devise strategies, discuss the developments of the ETL and of course ask questions. For the latter you can also PM me.

 

ALL WHO MAKE A VOW AND ARE LISTED BELOW HAVE EARNED THE RIGHT TO WEAR THE OATH OF MOMENT:

No you don't!

So how about beating the DAs this year? It's been a long time and frankly you got nothing to keep you back... So how about a "the Lion & the Wolf" side event? If you beat the DAs, you... well... win! If not, you lose. Are you up to it Wolves of Fernis?

http://fc09.deviantart.net/fs71/i/2010/032/b/0/__Lion_and_the_Wolf___by_blackswordsman28.png

PLEASE NOTE: when you get the before pics PLEASE edit them (or link them) in your initial vow post so we get everything in one place. Thanks.

UPDATED TO THIS POINT!

[Captain Semper]

Ok then will let the DAs know...

And don't let the robes scare you!

...and welcome Wulfgar! The SWs have so far remained true to form and vow big - the unique trend that landed you the third position in the first ETL. Can you repeat or beat that performance? We'll have to see!

I picked up three of the old metal wolf scouts and this is my push to finally get them done and due to lack of scout models I was going to fill up the squad with the two PA's. Let me know if this is ok, if not I will edit my vow accordingly.

Its only a humble start but I'm a slow painter and unfortunately real life does quite often put a dampener on my painting. However I will see how quickly I can progress with these and hopefully if all goes well submit another vow :) Definitely don't want to end up wearing the banner of shame!!!

 

Pretty much only primed in the fang spray, some not even that ><

 

Total points = 520

Ragnar Blackmane, the Young King (195pts)   --- He is my own custom build but has correct equipment (the blade being custom too but still counting as ragnars blade) is that okay? I hope so cause he's been sat there waiting for paint for so long now he thinks i dont love him.
