WILL THE KNOWLEDGE OF MARS PREVAIL?

 

 

It's very silent in the Forges of Mars! Where are the Magi to take up arms in the service of the Omnissiah? Show yourselves and be eternally rewarded. You have last year's stellar performance to live up to!

Heh heh... With so few units available to Mars, last years folks have full armies now. Those of us vowing this year are new to the Mechanicus.

[WarriorFish]

I might be ready for next ETL ;) Semper, surely you hear the churning of machinery in the distance as the adepts of Mars concern themselves with production, not inefficient discourse... :lol:

Well, good point I guess... But still, there can be any number of 30k Mechanicum that is legal to post here... We'll need to see how this develops.

Oh that's what this background humming was? Now everything is explained! :D

So I've been working diligently on vow one. Today my Renegades box was purchased so vow 2 will be set after vow 1 is completed. Oh boy what a ride.

 

Nice BB!

[WarriorFish]

Cool, a new vow and an old one ;) Well done Dai a very impressive model :tu:

[HackedDuck]

Well done everyone keep up the good work :)

 

Do we have to do the bases for the models to be "complete"?

[WarriorFish]

Only if that's part of what you do - so if your army has a basing scheme that's required for completion. If you don't have one yet then it's not. Completion standards are set by yourself basically, but remember that IFOR does things properly ;)

[Captain Semper]

What WarriorFish said.

 

The idea here is not to sell yourself short. If you normally do bases then it is expected that you do them. If basing exceeds your skill level then that's fine - although I'd encourage you to take the opportunity of the ETL to attempt them. There is no worth in a prize that does not represent your best effort and, at the same time, no skill level is excluded. :)

[WarriorFish]

It's not the ETL if you didn't try something new and push your hobby boundaries :tu:
