Edited, updated, and reporting to the Chaplains for repentance!

Wait a minute. You mean to say that you, Mr 'I'm going to chase the Black Templar leaks to the ends of the earth, and bring news of them like a prophet' isn't painting the models as Black Templars?!?!

I think the Knights Tempest are about as far as I'd be willing to stretch the umbrella of Templar sanction. Your outstanding service to this forum deserves it's rewards. Be sure there's enough black mixed in there to show it's more BT in nature than IF successor. Pledge on brethren.

[Marshal Reinhard]

Humm... Marshal, EC both has smidgeons of paint on them (enough to not qualify anymore) and Sword brother from crusader squad is essentially fully painted (meaning the crusader squad is essentially incomplete as its min size is 10... I also intend to mix in a lot of the bits from the crusader squad with my old 'cessors')), meaning the only legal entry from my lunch box at this point would be the redemptor, which im still undecided what to do with.

 

If I am to participate then, it depends a lot on when the rest of our glorious release arrives. And I feel it'd be sinful to sit this out with our glorious return at hand. Hurry up, GW!

 

Thank you for doing this btw, TOTZ

I did my part.

Lmao, waiting for the rest of the release. Currently using some bits for my D.I.Y, swords and capes mostly.

 

Now that they are here I can rest easy. :)

 

I'll vow some proper Templar lads next month. ;)

Does having them base coated disqualify the squad I planned on using?

I, 9x19 Parabellum, hereby vow the following 884-point force to the Eternal Crusade before the end of January (2022):

1 Primaris Emperor's Champion: 100

Should I fail in my vow, I will bear the mark of failure until year's end as repentance.

And here is a bonus pic for my BT brothers. I finished my crusader squad basically the day before the Vow was announced, so while these guys are part of this vow in spirit, they were already finished so can't qualify:

Base or undercoated? Post us a pic?

[SWORD BROTHER RYAN]

Question: I have a 5-man squad of Hellblasters w/ standard plasma, but already painted 1 up as a test for my new recipe. The rest are just primer coated. Can I vow the other 4 legally, or should I drop that unit from vowing?

I plan  to use the storyline of the marked wulf crusade to return to legion colors of a battered yellow and black though the army is being constructed out of templar bits and designed to play out of the templar  book. 

The marked wulf crusades former colors were akin to scouring era templars with black and yellow being the primary colors,  I will basically be pushing that backward toward templars as they would have been through the crusade , with some wearing black and others wearing the more traditional legion colors.  ( The light of the Indomitus crusade having cast the shadows from their armor and set the blaze of zeal from a raging inner fire to an inferno told by their very arrival on the battlefield  as knights of Dorn) 

Basically working off something like this


If that doesn't work for the sake of the event then feel free to disqualify me once my first vow is finished.

[Gederas]

Likely going to vow this weekend/Friday night, once my new dropper bottles and mixing balls come in on Friday. Need to just do the maths :lol:

[TheOneTrueZon]

If it's good enough for Sigismund, it's good enough for this event. Just be sure to make those black part prominent, ya know? As you are a former Champion it would be remiss to pass on a chance to see your work!

[SkimaskMohawk]

I, SkimaskMohawk, hereby vow the following force of 1 Emperor's Champion, 2 Marshalls, 3 Redemptor Dreadnoughts, 1 Invictor Warsuit, 1 Juidiciar 1 Primaris Chaplain, 1 Assault Intercessor Squad, and 1 Primaris Crusader Squad to the Eternal Crusade before the end of January (2022) for a total of  1676pts. I enter with the mark of the Neophyte, and through the trials of fate and fire, rise to the rank of Initiate by journey's end as a true brethren of the Black Templar order.  Should I fail in my vow, I will bear the mark of failure until year's end as repentance.

 

I, uh, have a lot of unpainted minis. And honestly have way more if theres enough time.

[painting.for.my.sanity]

Waiting for our new upgrade sprue to drop, as I have a vow mostly put together but missing a few bits (Neophyte shotguns, Sword of Judgement etc). Current plan is the new Emperor's Champion, a converted jump-pack Chaplain, the WH Day Castellan, 5 Vanguard Veterans and a Primaris Crusader squad of 5 Initiates, Sword Brother and 4 Neophytes. Should all come to 656pts, but I'll vow properly once it's fully assembled and photographed.
