From an ETL perspective it's indifferent. If he has the bolt pistol as part of his standard equipment (i.e. in his base points value) you don't have to model it, unless you want to. Same applies for frag grenades for example...

 

Cool, thanks for the info. But does that mean grey hunters now have to have a ccw (if bought) explicitly modeled onto? I would assume a knife in a sheath would suffice, but would it?

I forsee attempting to squeeze in and hour or so painting tomorrow late evening. Should be home around 10:30pm and not due to get up ready for work till 6:30am. Hmmm ... Maybe I should make that two hours painting?

 

I can't transport models attached to painting blocks to work so I lunch breaks will be used or prepping further vows.

Have you got everything you need to get started?


 


Check your hobby space and make an inventory of all your paints, brushes, varnishes, cleaners glues etc.


See which are full, which are running low and which are empty.


 


Make a list of what you are going to need, so next time you are out, you know exactly what to get.


That way your projects will suffer the minimum of delays.


 


I have lost count of the number of times I have run out of something and forgotten to pick up what I need when at the stores.


 


Stay frosty!!

Ch@oZ: You can use any unpainted model that you have for your vow. As long as it is legal to use in a Space Wolf Army.

 

I am painting up some Wolf Lords which have sat about for 3+ years.

 

Like you said it is a painting competition so pre-built models are perfectly acceptable. |As long as you have not gone beyond putting primer on it, you will be good. If you have done more than that, post a picture here and get Semper to okay the model before vowing it.

 

If it is part painted & you are happy to start over again then, you can strip the paint off and start fresh :)

 

Hope that helps.

Need to pull out the Hunter pack that will be my first vow, just haven't had time last few weeks. Have to Finnish the company banner and check mold lines.

The Wolf Time is upon us, brothers and sisters!! Let us raise our voices to the wind and strike like lightning from the sky!!

The ETL is nearly here, let us show the other chapters the true power of the Vlka Fenryka!!

 

The best of luck to each and every one of you. May your paint flow like the blood of our enemies, your brush strokes be as steady as the Chainsword is swift, and your motivations stay as strong as the mighty jaws of Moraki himself!!

 

End of Line

The Great Hall of the Aett, rang to the sound of mirth & merriment as the Wolves celebrated the final hours before commencement of the Great Hunt.



As time had progressed towards this momentous occasion, each warrior had spent some time away from the others, preparing his chosen weapons of war. As the time came closer the Jarls (spelling?) gathered to them their warriors, ready to stand and be pledged to the cause.



A sudden great pealing sound echoed around the hall, as one of the Wolf Priests, beat the great sun-disc of Russ, calling for silence.



As one the voices of those present drops to a hush, the only sound heard throughout the hall is the crackling & spitting of the logs burning in the hearths.



The Rune Priest, known as Rhapp the Harmonious, or Rune Priest Rhapsody, due to the melodies he used in his reciting of the sagas. Stepped forward and struck the ground 3 times, as was his way.



“In a very short time we shall embark on our fifth great challenge. We will bring light to the darkness which has shrouded the Imperium of late.


I wish you all the very best of luck in your endeavours. In 3 months Terran standard from now, I hope to see you all here in the Great Hall, where we hall feast to our victories and lament our fallen warriors.


During these 3 months, I expect that you will all create mighty sagas, which over the fullness of time will be recorded in the histories of the Fang.


May the Allfather smile upon your endeavours.


Go now, as if the fangs of Morkai are snapping at your heels. Make Russ proud”.



As the venerable Rune Priest stepped back, a new figure emerged from the shadows .


The great craggy features, of Kieran Coldheart came into the light.



“Before you now lay the gates to the strategium. Just now they are locked, but soon they will open and we will be permitted to begin. I would urge you to go to the Strategium and become familiar with the rules of the challenge. If you are unsure of anything, make your concerns known and advice shall be sent to you.


For some, it is merely the beginning and your legend will start here today.


Fully 1/3 of our number have never taken up the challenge before, so I bid you welcome. I hope you have prepared well and heeded the lessons sent to you msn-wink.gif Remember we are all of one pack, so if you require anything to not be afraid to ask.



For others it is a chance to seek further glory and build upon your already mighty sagas, I for one look forward to creating a new chapter in the Edda of Kieran.


For a select few. You have returned to correct some ancient wrongs & to remake vows once broken. I urge you not to over extend yourself this time. Let the previous challenges be a lesson to you and to all of us here.


A boastful warrior will shout & make many vows, but a true warrior keeps them!


I thank you for coming back to the Fang, redeeming your honour and righting ancient wrongs”



All of you gathered here are now Einherjar.


You, now more than ever, represent the Space Wolves Chapter


By your pledges and your deeds, you will show the galaxy, what it is to be Fenryka!!!


Do not let me or the Great Wolf down”



Here are some words of wisdom before I wish you well on your journey ahead

Can we pin main post to the top of the page?

 

Lol ... It's all of a sudden feeling very real. Let's make this a year to remember!!!

 

Also once the vows are open does that mean we can start painting or still have to wait or 5pm tomorrow to get started?

 

Lol ... I need to know if I should get as early night as possible to charge the batteries or start painting. :p

 

Can we pin main post to the top of the page?

Actually it would be helpful for me too...

 

Done, and done.

 

I am going to drop this thread as we now have the official thread open.
