@GodEmperorOfMankind, something kind of humourous about the God Emperor making his vow for the Warmaster.   And yes, if you complete your first vow you can make another - in fact, each member can make 3 "normal vows" plus one "Job's  Big One" vow which is for a larger model (10+ pnts) that you can paint alongside your other vows (and is the only way to be working on two vows at once in the same stronghold).

 

You can do that in every stronghold, so in theory you could have 20 vows over the course of CtA, though that seems a bit... ambitious... especially given the scale of your starting vow. 

 

@librisrouge, I'm not sure how you get 54 points - my total is 13x1 pnts for the custodes (13) and 1x3 pnts for the dread (3) for a total of 16.

What can I say, Horus is my favoured son :') 

I figure this way keeps the traitors and loyalists a bit more evenly matched, if I pledged loyalists then thats a big slant for them with myself and sgtsharp, and i want to encourage people to sign up

I do enjoy that I forced the Emperor to turn against the Imperium

I do enjoy being called the Emperor 

I also look forward to taking your heresy champion crown

I was painting away on my vow and it occurred to me that I have a thunderhawk waiting for the Salamanders I plan to make after I’ve got my custodes done.

 

How many points is a thunderhawk worth? I’d guess reaver level but it might be warhound.

For the first, and may be last time I can't choose to call it heresy or not

Assuming its a 40K/30K scale thunderhawk, 20 points.  If it is epic scale, it is 4.

You should definitely vow that after you're done, Would love to see the Thawk in Sallies colours

@Dwango, do you want the display board to be a seperate "Job's a Big One Vow" or part of your 109 point vow?  Vowing it seperately as a "Job's a Big One" means you don't need to finish the display board before you start on another vow, but it does mean you can't later vow something else later as a JaBO.  Anyway, I've lumped them together for now - let me know if that is wrong.

 

@SgtSharp - got it, I've included them in your insane 30K vow.

Ah, separate vow please. Sorry, never thought when I vowed. 

[Iron Father Ferrum]

I, Iron Father Ferrum, heed the Call to Arms and pledge to paint 10 Immortals and a Cataphractii Praetor for 15 pts for the Glory of the Iron Tenth and He On Earth, and the Heresy Stronghold on or before September 15th, or bear the badge of failure until year's end.

I, Sven Ironhand, heed the call to arms and pledge to paint 3 Indomitus Terminators for 3 pts for the glory of the Iron Tenth and the Emperor of Man, and the Heresy Stronghold on or before September 15th or bear the badge of failure until year’s end.

Hmmm, aren't they for 1 point each? Though don't get me wrong:  

Spoiler

I'd be partial to 2pts each ^^

edit. Now with picture. Can’t seem to find the assault marines or 5 iron hands. Off to a good start. And I already painted a test model hence only 9 Sallys. 

 

final edit* found the assault marines and remaining 5 iron hands which are going to be hacked apart, upgraded and repainted.

This isn’t so much a WIP shot as a “models done, just need to repaint the bases black” shot.

[SvenIronhand]

Vow completed.
