Waldwolf Posted January 15, 2019 Share Posted January 15, 2019 As seen in one thread, i am not alone preparing for the ETL this year. Because of our suboptimal performance last year, i hope that we will best at least our dress wearing cousins ;) So lets start the show rigt now! What are your plans? I have a box of burning of prospero, a box of wulfen, an assault sqaud for turning in WG with jumppacks and a box of hellblasters lying around. Oh i forgot the sw half of toth an claw, i think i should be able to build most of this and then see what the ETL will bring. I will add my building progress in this thread, so lets rock this years ETL!

Guest Posted January 15, 2019 Share Posted January 15, 2019 I have Dark Imperium, box of intercessors right now. Tooth and claw half incoming. I need to convert some intercessors to Huskarls (SS+TH Wulfen). Just going to primer grey and base coat Vallejo Tyre Black and in a new scheme (restarting my army from ground up). Edit: just unsure on how to build the intercessors right now and waiting. I hope they release some melee dedicated Primaris in normal mk x armor and not Gravis/reiver armor pattern.

Cpt.Danjou Posted January 15, 2019 Share Posted January 15, 2019 Can someone explain what ETL is for me? Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/353144-preparing-for-the-etl/#findComment-5235195 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted January 15, 2019 Share Posted January 15, 2019 Can someone explain what ETL is for me? Basically Its a forum competition with all the subforums groups (SM, SW, BA, GK, Xeno, IG) competing. You make a vow fulfill that vow in the allotted time. If you finish a vow you can make another one up to 3(?) vows in total.

Cpt.Danjou Posted January 15, 2019 Share Posted January 15, 2019 Thank you. Ok then I am preparing for that. I have the "Tooth and Claw" box incoming soon, and will paint up the squads in that box for the ETL.

I have the "Tooth and Claw" box incoming soon, and will paint up the squads in that box for the ETL. Cpt.Danjou I am not sure when it happens, but I think it's soon. I would get supplies ready and models built, prime if you can. I have all the models that I want that are released. Right now I really need to find GW equivalents in Vallejo model air. Meanwhile I am building the stuff. After that I will prime them in batches and hopefully base coat. After that I should be ready for ETL.

Rune Priest Jbickb Posted January 15, 2019 Share Posted January 15, 2019 Traditionally ETL begins in may. Perhaps o can redeem my abysmal performances the last couple years. Lots knows o have plenty to paint Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/353144-preparing-for-the-etl/#findComment-5235252 Share on other sites More sharing options...

TiguriusX Posted January 15, 2019 Share Posted January 15, 2019 I think ETL is the only reason I painted some of my stuff haha. Could probably use the motivation again I have tons of things assembled and primed or less. If I can find the time I should be able to crank out a few candidates -5xwulfen with 4 TH/SS -2 stormwolf flyers -6xaggressors -10 intercessors -20 BC/GH -Various HQs with magnetized options Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/353144-preparing-for-the-etl/#findComment-5235344 Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeteySödes Posted January 15, 2019 Share Posted January 15, 2019 I’ve got my two sicarans itching to be finished and I hope to include a squad or two of terminators with my planned Logan rebuild. This year I aim to bring the master artificer to the Aette...

NatBrannigan Posted January 15, 2019 Share Posted January 15, 2019 Never done anything for the ETL, I could use some motivation... Painting a Wolfspear force and have: 15 Intercessors 5 Hellblasters 6 Thunderwolves (complete with 10 point Storm Shields... Thanks a lot GW) 3 Dreadnoughts 1 Iron priest 1 Repulsor 3 Agressors 3 Primaris Battle Leaders All in various stages of not finished! Luckily (lazily) I've only painted 1 test model so far so have half that lot assembled and undercoated only, with the other half still languishing in boxes. Should I put it all in 1 vow or look to spread it over 3?

Rune Priest Jbickb Posted January 15, 2019 Share Posted January 15, 2019 Always make it manageable. Trust me I've screwed that up more than once it's a hard lesson. But several small trumps 1 big. My rule for myself this ETL is no more than 10 infantry or 2 vehicles per vow. It should keep me focused better and help fight real life chaos Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/353144-preparing-for-the-etl/#findComment-5235522 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jarl Kjaran Coldheart Posted January 15, 2019 Share Posted January 15, 2019 I'm thinking 1 Cataphractii squad 2x5 Intercessors 2x5 Reivers 1x1 Repulsor 1x5 Wulfen 1x1 Primaris Lord in Gravis ??? number of Tartaros Terminators 1x1 Leviathan 1x1 Contemptor That's just what's on my tables waiting for paint I can drop a bit more if I start actually assembling crap Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/353144-preparing-for-the-etl/#findComment-5235543 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Waldwolf Posted January 16, 2019 Author Share Posted January 16, 2019 But dont forget that the ETL isn´t open yet. Just build the models you want to bring in and prime them. Everything else is not allowed before the ETL starts. Last Year the ETL Timeframe was from May 1. to August 1. So we have plenty of time to prepare and show the other forums that the fang is a force to count on ;) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/353144-preparing-for-the-etl/#findComment-5235899 Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would make sense as some of the paint scheme primer is their basecoat (ex: Death Guard) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/353144-preparing-for-the-etl/#findComment-5235914 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted January 16, 2019 Share Posted January 16, 2019 Cool, glad to have that. Still looking for a Eshin Grey alternate color. Here is the paint scheme I will mimic (minus the colored pauldrons), from DoI. http://bolterandchainsword.com/uploads/gallery/album_15164/gallery_94113_15164_956757.jpeg Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/353144-preparing-for-the-etl/#findComment-5235976 Share on other sites More sharing options...
