As far as I can tell, that means two Jurnals or two bonuses. But hey, if I'm wrong, I'll just do it next month!

Double the Fun seems like a freebie. I could claim it for box art and WIP, along with almost everybody else who did two or more bonuses. Glad to hear I can start converting though, I have some big ideas for next month!

Be sure to tell us which Logs you have completed when you post your Oath Complete picture. I've edited my post just above, just in case.

OATH COMPLETE  Backstory Sixteen humans were obliterated in an instant. The Imperial Guardsmen of the 481st division were seeking refuge from the hail of purple fire from the sky in a rocky outcropping when they were struck dead by a screaming skull composed of brass and fire. The skull blazed through the skies and exploded just a few meters above the cowering soldiers, incinerating every member of the unit and leaving behind only charred bones and scraps of carapace armor. The Bloodletters manning a Skull Cannon of Khorne, hunters of the hidden and cowardly, drove their cannon forward from its position into a gulley to continue to search for prey. The riders roared with delight at the deaths of their enemies. "Ueheehee!" Ypraxl the Pink Horror of Tzeentch stood at the top of the hill, flanked by its lessers, pointing down upon a dread machine of the god Khorne and its riders. The horror's three fanged mouths barked a shrill laugh in three different octaves. "Look upon these fools! Monsters of martial might and yet they know not the bloody combat they so advocate!" Meym and Fardeth looked on at the mocking Horrors but could only stand upon their beloved Skull Cannon, its engines roaring with anger and frustration. They knew that these insults were true. The Skull Cannon was their sacred charge of their god and they could not leave it for a moment or suffer the wrath of their creator. Yet still their blood boiled at the thought that their rage must be constrained--left to sit and throw fiery death from a distance. There was far less honor in that than the close combat they knew they were destined for. Their living blades thrummed with excited energy at the mere thought of seeing battle. --- The battle over, Meym and Fardeth stood before the great skull throne of Khorne. The great god sat before them, already upset that its time must be consumed by such trivialities. **SPEAK!** Khorne's voice roared loudly, echoing through the mountains of bodies and bone surrounding his throne room. "We desire to seek combat with our own blades, like the others!" Meym shouted. His shout was but a whisper compared to its master. "Yes, yes!" Fardeth joined. "If we cannot leave the cannon to address those who must be slain we are not performing at our peak for you!" **YOU DARE QUESTION WHAT I ASK OF YOU?!** Khorne rose from his throne and stalked forward toward his minions. **NOT SINCE SKARBRAND HAVE I ENDURED SUCH INSOLENCE!** Khorne plucked the two Bloodletters from the cracked marble floor and held them both in his palm. **IF YOUR PHYSICAL BODIES AND DESIRES ARE SUCH A DESTRACTION TO YOUR POSITION, I WILL RELIEVE YOU OF THEM.** The Blood God strode over to the Skull Cannon Meym and Fardeth left at the entrance of his chamber and threw his hand above the machine. In a flash of speed, Khornes fingers closed around the two unlucky daemons and closed entirely. A shout of despair and pain escaped Khornes fingers before the two daemons were utterly crushed. Blood began to dribble through Khornes fist and onto the machine below. **I COMMEND YOU TO EXIST FOR A SOLE PURPOSE, BUT ALWAYS REMEMBER THE DESIRE THAT BROUGHT YOU TO THIS STATE. MAY YOUR HATRED DRIVE YOU TO FUTURE GLORY!** --- Many years later, a war raged on the planet of Ghurant. On the surface daemons spilled forth from the warp to meet those that mistakenly summoned them with whispered words. The clouds poured acid rains and the rivers of the world ran with black blood. Near the ancient city of Pyria, Ypraxl and a horde of Horrors stood near the walls of a sealed temple. From afar, the daemon spotted a roaming unmanned Skull Cannon, propelling itself into battle and spewing death at all it beheld. Ypraxl immediately recognized the machine, its hull rippling with the spirits of those that were bound inside. "Eeheehee, we meet again!" The Pink Horror screamed. "How nice of you to join us in combat, good Bloodletters! But, where are your swords? Where are your bodies, even! Are you hiding?!" The gathering of daemons all began laughing in unison at the machine. The maddened essences of Meym and Fardeth no longer knew rational thought. The years of being bound into singular service had left them mindless but for a sense of rage. Still, the mocking of the Pink Horrors seemed to cut into their psyche and as their spirits quarreled inside the machines structure they determined that they must have vengeance. They fired at their "allies" in battle. "Ooop!" Ypraxl let out a shout and disappeared in a cloud of multicolored fire as the screaming skull struck the remaining Horrors. The skull easily cleared through the frail frames of the daemons and stuck the side of the ancient temple, knocking out a block of the wall and breaking an seal against magical energies. The insane Skull Cannon found another target and trundled onward, certain its hated enemy was destroyed. Ypraxl reappeared, letting its illusory magics drop away. "Thank you for your assistance." It whispered with a toothy grin as it made its way into the chamber to secure the artifact of Pyria for itself. Surely this would please Tzeentch in such a way as to elevate its station. Detektuv's Jurnal - Take at least 3 Work In Progress pictures    Parts List Citadel Paints: Abaddon Black Balor Brown Blood Red Burnished Gold Caledor Sky Emperor's Children Leadbelcher Screaming Skull Skull White (I've used the same pot since 2001--it will never run out) Sunburst Yellow Wazdakka Red Amsterdam Paints: Permanent Green Light Gloss: Mod Podge Gloss-Lustre Basing Material: Gale Force 9 Fine Basing Grit Mulch that I randomly took from the sidewalk while out on a walk Edit: I guess that's Double the Fun then too.

Thank you! Grey Hunter posted:I to shall edit in a Double the fun Chance II posted:Well I guess I'll go back and edit a Double the fun! into my Oath Complete post. OK, I got all three of you guys. I think at the end of the month, as a one-time thing, I'll probably go through and credit everyone who qualified with a double the fun bonus. It's easy to do this time because I know that all the one-time bonuses that someone has points for, must have been earned in May; starting next month, though, it'd be much more tedious to figure that out on my own, so I'll rely on posters to inform me clearly when they've gotten a double the fun. Especially if you get it by doing two Detektuv's Jurnals, or by doing one Jurnal and one one-time bonus. PierreTheMime posted:

The number of models needed in a group probably should be based on the models' size, rather than scale. That said, based on the current rules-as-written, your group does not qualify because at the 15mm scale you must have a minimum of 8 models.

Someone let me know if I got this wrong. Tanks and armored vehicles (half-tracks, bulldozers, SPGs) aren't based in FoW. Most other vehicles are typically "optional" unless the model comes pre-molded with one (jeeps, trucks, bren carriers).

I'm making an Alternate Universe additional oath with some 12-year-old Woodland Scenics trees I've had laying around: These are meant to be used with my 28mm scale figures - I'm slowly building up a bunch of homemade dungeon tiles. Also, the base is multi-colored because it's raw sand, bark, and wood. It won't be staying that color.

I'm eagerly waiting my Bones Kickstarter stuff (over 200 models, plus huge dragons and Cthulu? yes please) but I'm also expecting my Ouya to turn up any day now (international backer for both, and both promised before the end of May), so who knows what I'll have time for... Speaking of time... DEADLINE CHAT This is another reminder that the deadline for new oaths is exactly 1 week before the deadline to post your completed oaths, which means that the cut-off time to post new oaths is this Friday at midnight GMT! To make this super-easy: New Oath Cutoff Time - this Friday! US Pacific time: 5 PM US Mountain time: 6 PM US Central time: 7 PM US Easter time: 8 PM UK time: 1 AM (Saturday morning) Central EU time: 2 AM (Saturday morning) These are just the times to cover 90% of SA posters, don't be offended if your time zone is not included. And if you are offended, well screw you! If you don't know what time 0:00 GMT is in your time zone, use this link for all your time-telling needs! There's no way I'm going to be awake at 1 AM local time so I'll post something a couple of hours before and we'll use the forum server timestamps to figure out who posted their oaths a minute too late. krushgroove fucked around with this message at 11:46 on May 23, 2013 |

Yes please do! but if anyone else reading this does edit their oath complete post please make a new post to say what you've had to edit in. It's a new thread with a lot of changes so we all have some catching up to do. I think after the first month the questions will be sorted out and the OP updated to answer whatever has come up, so I hope nobody minds. There haven't been any major changes, just clarifications and tweaks. There's one bonus thing left I want to talk to Leperflesh about in regards to scoring but we'll do that privately and I'll announce that (it doesn't affect anything that anyone has posted yet but I want to clear it up before someone does do it).
