Arkhanist Posted April 30, 2018 Share Posted April 30, 2018 This is probably a silly question, but I assume 2nd vows onwards can come after 1st June? e.g. I pledge 2 squads of Death Company for my 1st vow and complete it on June 10th, I can vow devastators etc as a 2nd vow?

Shard of Magnus Posted April 30, 2018 Share Posted April 30, 2018 Yes. The first vow has to be made in the first month. Any additional vows can be made up until the event ends.

A subsequent vow can be entered after completion of the previous one that is the only time limitation if I'm reading the rules correctly. So if you manage to paint those DC in 1 day, you are free to pledge another vow as soon as you report completion of the DC-related vow. 1st of June is a time limit for entering the 1st vow only, so that the Watchers in the Dark know the number of participants by that time. A question from me: does a 'unit description' in the vow should contain exact point count (like: Captain with JP, TH and SS - 74+19+21+15=129) or just the final points value of 129?

Ekfud Posted April 30, 2018 Share Posted April 30, 2018 This can probably wait for the ETL to open, but since others have been posting their potential pledges... I have 16 DC (plus a chaplain and Lemartes) that were basecoated a while ago that will be on the bench asap - I think they are 95% fine, but the 1 power sword in the mix I did the blue/white blend while the airbrush was out. Should I exclude him specifically? (top left mini in pic below). JPs and packs are magnetised (heads/bases will get glued on) - and think from previous events, the idea is to pledge the highest option value (ie, JPs in this case). The standard bearer is counts-as regular dude, but have wanted to add an extra banner to the army with some DC bling.

Hopefully Semper will be along shortly to answer your query on how best to use that power sword. One of our strongest points is having black units to paint imo Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/346068-the-blood-angels-etl-vi-campaign-awaits/page/6/#findComment-5068156 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jolemai Posted April 30, 2018 Author Share Posted April 30, 2018 ETL is live! ONWARDS, FOR SANGUINIUS! =][= IMPORTANT NOTE =][= It should be noted that units from Index Imperium 1 are not permitted for the ETL to avoid any potential confusion following the release of Codex Blood Angels. However, if you have your heart set on painting something from Imperium 1, a suitable counts-as on a case-by-case basis will be put forth (just discuss it with Semper).

I've got a more than large enough backlog that I likely wasn't getting to them anyway, but it'd be good to know. Thanks!

So you have to use the Codex or the other GW publications mentioned in the BA Outpost. So, in the case of the twin autocannon dreadnought, there is no problem at all as the Mortis dreadnought is included in the “Imperial Armour Index: Forces of the Adeptus Astartes”. The case of the jump pack vets, doesnt the Vanguard Veteran Squad do the trick? PM me if you want to discuss more. So i should leave out my priest with a glued on jump pack? No, not at all. You just don't add the value of the jump-pack since it is not Codex-legal.

Arkhanist Posted April 30, 2018 Share Posted April 30, 2018 I'd forgot about the forgeworld mortis dreadnought, so that solves that one! Thanks for the quick response - it's my first ETL. Company vets have several weapon options vanguard don't have - jump pack and storm bolter company vets are a popular BA unit for example, but they lost the packs in the codex. I entirely understand including index unit options would be too much of a headache for ETL so no problem. If I get that far (given I'm normally a super-slow painter) I'd be magnetizing the packs anyway so I'd just paint them as standard codex company vets for ETL. Just useful to know when plotting out potential vows! Right. Back to my Death Company prep. I'd forgotten how long getting all those little seam lines off takes, been at it a week already! At least my hammers turned up...

Captain Semper Posted April 30, 2018 Share Posted April 30, 2018 Just consider the Sanguinary Guard too. Be that as it may, I will gradually respond only to the official ETL threads (aka the Outposts) because following some 40+ unofficial ETL threads is really draining - I'd rather stick to the 20 official ones! :) The Blood Angels Outpost can be found here.

robofish7591 Posted April 30, 2018 Share Posted April 30, 2018 Correct me if I am wrong, but couldn't company vets with jump packs be vowed "counts as" as regular non-jump pack company vets? They may not be worth as many points, but at least they would get painted.

Zeller Posted May 2, 2018 Share Posted May 2, 2018 If I can make a pledge, my first will be 13 Intercessors in 3 squads. I still need to get 2 more guys to fill out the third squad. I built, based, primed, and started some painting last month but they're essentially just plain red guys at the moment. Squad 1: 91 pts 1 sergeant, 1 grenade launcher, 3 bolters Squad 2: 91 pts 1 sergeant, 1 grenade launcher, 3 bolters Squad 3: 54 3 bolters Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/346068-the-blood-angels-etl-vi-campaign-awaits/page/6/#findComment-5070032 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ultra kblock Posted May 2, 2018 Share Posted May 2, 2018 I have always played Ultramarines, and my pre-Primaris space marines are all Ultramarines. I only have 1 vehicle to finish for them at the moment. I have been thinking of starting a second space marine chapter for awhile. With the new fluff, and the story of the Devastation of Baal, I have decided that my Primaris models will be Blood Angels. II currently have these Primaris models that need to be painted. 40 Intercessors 20 Hellblasters 12 Inceptors 30th Anniversary Sergeant A few Captains and Lieutenants Primaris Ancient A good start for a new company of Blood Angels Primaris replacements. All are still on the sprues so I have a lot of work to do. I will only pledge a 10 man squad and a character for each pledge. I hope to get at least 1 pledge a month.
