Thread: Badab, v2

Here's the current progress on the Badab re-do.

http://www.centexwar.com/badab-war-v2-0.pdf

Here are The Dude's notes for this revision:

DROP FLUFF SECTION
DROP BOARDING ACTION SECTION
ADD MORE COLOR PAGES
pictures of special characters, whole units painted, mock battles exc
ADD MORE APOC FORMATIONS
maybe even a few Chapter specific ones
EXPAND CAMPAIGN SECTION
I haven’t read the FW campaign section yet so I don’t know if we could expand upon this, but perhaps add more missions (I liked the ones we came up with) and Apoc missions (especially with BoLS con in mind).


Keep in mind everything should be SLIGHTLY under-priced. Special Characters in the SM are all under-priced and since this is a fan book, there should be an added incentive to make these special characters...

what is this Wiki-leaks?! I thought that was top secret lol

The Fly Lord Productions sub-forum isn't viewable to everyone; you are one who can see it. But I figure having it here will help it get finished, since work kinda stalled.

One thing we wanted to add, but haven't gone through yet are the Battle Formations-- like Warmachine theme forces/Apoc formations for normal 40k-sized games.

Taking any ideas on those, and taking pics of people who build any of those Special Characters.

Makes me very happy to see this again. Will think on Red Scorpion Apoc ideas.
Jim I have two RS terminator apothecaries I'd love to get photographed. Plus the single tac marine on page 12 is one of the most boring in my army... dunno how that guy made the layout.

I also think that if any of the Badab people are willing to build and paint a special character, we should come up with a name and some rules for them...
