Disruptor_fe404 Posted October 7, 2022 Share Posted October 7, 2022 Perfectly timed for my Christmas break and a low-commitment painting project to get me into the swing of painting more regularly again (which I'm planning to have as a 2023 personal goal)! I probably won't start or commit anything until closer to Christmas, but it might be time for me to paint up my first ever squad of Intercessors!

Dumah Posted October 7, 2022 Share Posted October 7, 2022 Fine timing indeed! I just happen to have recently finished assembling an Intercession Kill Team and will begin the painting process soon so this'll be just what the doctor ordered. Pledge incoming shortly...

Lysimachus Posted October 7, 2022 Author Share Posted October 7, 2022 (edited) @Doctor Perils @Halandaar The Challenge is fairly easy going regarding where people are starting from, so I wouldn't worry too much... but if you really feel like they're too close to being finished, you'd be welcome to enter them as 'out of competition' entries?

Xenith Posted October 10, 2022 Share Posted October 10, 2022 Great Idea, been looking at getting into KT. Great time frame also. I'll have a nosey see what I'm hobby butterflying into at the moment.

Yeah, I hadn't considered doing 30k Kill-Teams, but as long as you're building it so it works rules-wise as one of the Teams, I'm cool with that! NB. Just a thought, but if you're going 30k AL, have you considered doing them as a counts-as Phobos Strike team rather than Intercession? Still a 6-man minimum PA team, but they have all sorts of sneaky Operatives and kit/strategies, perfect for the theme!

Urauloth Posted October 12, 2022 Share Posted October 12, 2022 Traitor 30k KTs could very comfortably use the Legionary rules, at least as a framework for a painting event like this. There's no requirement to invest in chainaxes and warpcraft, after all. If you have an oldschool rotor cannon you could pass off as a chaincannon, so much the better.

Lysimachus Posted October 13, 2022 Author Share Posted October 13, 2022 Well, a very quick update, as it's now just over a week since this started! We've had an amazing 24 Fraters make vows, and even one Kill-Team completed already! Perhaps unsurprisingly, we've had most vows for the Loyal Astartes Grand Alliance (with a sizeable number of Badab War Chapters represented! ) but there have been vows made for all of the Alliances! Lovely to see so many people taking part, but sign-up will stay open all the way through until January, so if you want to join in, please do!

Daylight Posted December 13, 2022 Share Posted December 13, 2022 It’s been a minute since I’ve last painted anything, but I think this challenge will be what gets me motivated again. Still trying to decide between tacticals from the Space Marine heroes line, legionaries, or Phobos. Think I am leaning towards the Phobos as they seem to possibly be a bit more forgiving to paint, and I’ve yet to work with Primaris.

Lysimachus Posted January 31, 2023 Author Share Posted January 31, 2023 This event will end in less than 24 hours, at 12 noon on 1/2/23 UK time (that should allow right up to the end of 31/1/23 regardless of whatever time zones people are in!) so if you've signed up and got completed Kill Teams to post, make sure you get your finished pics in before that time! Then I'll work out a vote with all of the completed entries! Well done to everyone that has taken part!!!
