Will we fail again and let our glory be passed on to the Realm of Chaos again? I think not, last year we came so close but ultimately failed due to a combination of procrastination and final pledge failures.So how do we rectify this? By preparing ourselves for the fight of our lives, with the release of Betrayal at Calth and an influx of converts to the setting 2016 will be our year, why only 3 years ago our corner of the forum was nothing but a footnote in the annals of the Bolter and chainsword, we then proved we were here to step up in 2015 but we fell at the finish line.Now I promised that I wouldn't let us fail this year and I'm a man of my word, so I ask you to heed my call and to stand with me in our eternal fight with Chaos! I care not if you are loyal to the emperor or the Warmaster or even if you fight for your own cause or another's! http://i1279.photobucket.com/albums/y524/Taron_James_Beer/Mobile%20Uploads/gallery_60566_6038_8771_zpsehgc2xbz.jpglet us have the best quality of completions and a near perfect completion rate, let us represent each of the Legions and their allies, let us bring the fight to Chaos and the rest of the B&C!http://i1279.photobucket.com/albums/y524/Taron_James_Beer/Mobile%20Uploads/2016-03-19_12.09.18_zpsaesytojq.jpgI formally challenge each and every one of you to heed the call and try outshine your previous works & challenge a rival from the chaos forum.+Fight for The Age of Darkness+Kurama JaspcatTaron2015 Forum Champion Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/320553-etl-v-motivation-and-preparation-aod-unite/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Memento Of Prospero Posted March 19, 2016 Share Posted March 19, 2016 As usual, I, Wolf_Pack, pledge to expunge the weakness of the flesh and crush the enemies of Terra and the Throne under the steel of my boots, the strength of my arm and the implacability of my will.

Kizzdougs Posted March 19, 2016 Share Posted March 19, 2016 Looking forward to it! I just really hope that people don't make pledges that they aren't able to honour. That's what really killed us last time. People let themselves get carried away with the excitement of the whole event and made unrealistic vows. My general rule is to make a small (usually a single figure vow) initial vow and build from there. A small vow allows you to make sure that you're in before the deadline and should be easy enough to complete in time to make subsequent vows. Real life always has a nasty habit of getting in the way, so never vow more than you are absolutely positive that you'll be able to finish. Small vows might seem boring, but if you make proper use of each of your separate vows they can really add up. Anyway, I'm really looking forward to seeing the awesome explosion of creativity that inevitably accompanies the ETL :tu: Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/320553-etl-v-motivation-and-preparation-aod-unite/#findComment-4340133 Share on other sites More sharing options...

As much as I would like to join you guys, I'm afraid I'm committed to Chaos this year. Maybe next year, though! I wish you all the best of luck!

Frater Cornelius Posted March 19, 2016 Share Posted March 19, 2016 Looks like I will need to step up the conversions and stock up on some purple. Outshining any previous effort won't be hard though, as I have yet to present a painted mini to the forum.

Olis Posted March 19, 2016 Share Posted March 19, 2016 I've never followed ETL, is it based on points values? Yes. And failed vows invalidate your whole effort.

helterskelter Posted March 19, 2016 Share Posted March 19, 2016 Fingers crossed this year I'll be set up and ready to roll with a little vow or 2. Last year was a bit of a low spell for me but things are perking up nicely soooo ill have stuff built and converted in the mean while.

Olis Posted March 19, 2016 Share Posted March 19, 2016 Just remember, brothers and sisters, pledge manageable chunks. We lost thousands upon thousands of points worth of progress last year because our big hitters failed at the final hurdle. I would rather many of us did medium amounts of points and succeed, than a few of us do massive amounts and possibly fail.
