Thread: Campaign Week 1

Well, we aren't quite there yet, but it is getting close, so here is the thread to start us off. As soon as I get the final version of the maps I will post for everyone to see, and we will start claiming tiles, after that challenges can be made. Regarding the maps we are working on having a digital version easy to access and see the progress online, but we will also (hopefully) have a physical version which is able to be there at DL (or wherever we are gaming), to have a physical representation and throw some flags down on.

Something that hasn't been discussed yet, and is not included in the rules packet yet but throughout the campaign, sometimes it may be randomly, other things are triggered by certain events, or control of certain areas or planets, I will let your faction leads know, but there are bonuses and things that will play into the narrative of what is going on.

Here are the factions as they stand now. As it stands at the moment I have 5 people's battle host lists, including my own. The sooner you can get them to me the easier it will be for me. I know that it has been a tough nut to crack for some of you, and I apologize for that, but I hope we all will be able to have some fun in the campaign as it progresses.

Here is the list of factions as they stand right now:

Imperials:
Faction Lead: CRP (SW or IG)
DandyPandy (Ultramarines)
Real Genius (BloodMech)
RedArmy (Sable Faalken, custom chapter, successor to the Astral Claws)
Darkwyn (Ad Mech and Muhreens)
Ball4eva (Ultramarines)

Xenos:
Faction Lead:morella (eldar)
Randomnumber (eldar)
Noah2015.5 (eldar)
eaglesmvp (eldar)
ninjawraithlord (eldar)
ccrazzyyman (tau)

Chaos:
Faction Lead:Caldera (Emporer's Children)
Sloth (Nids)
Noodlers (Chaos)
Bullymike (Daemonkin)
Kaika (Chaos)
Tx Plays (Orks)

So, as explained in the packets, there will be a random initiative order for challenges to be made. So as to be fair to all, Turn 2's challenge order will be the reverse of Turn 1. A new initiative order will then be rolled for campaign Turn 3. So, here is the Turn 1 Initiative Order for the challenges:

Player Faction Random Value
1 Random Xenos 998
2 Ninjawraithlord Xenos 986
3 Bullymike Chaos 954
4 Kaika Chaos 953
5 ccrazzyman Xenos 937
6 Darkwyn Imperials 921
7 Sloth Chaos 836
8 TxPlays Chaos 737
9 Caldera Chaos 683
10 Morella Xenos 677
11 Noodlers Chaos 672
12 CRP Imperials 638
13 DandyPandy Imperials 457
14 Noah Xenos 425
15 Red Army Imperials 365
16 Real Genius Imperials 249
17 Ball4eva Imperials 170
18 EaglesMVP Xenos 61

So, challenges can't really be made until the map and initial positions are sorted out, but there it is for you. The Imperials look like our beurocracy hit us, as we are slow off the blocks to pick match-ups that we want in the challenges.

Nice...
As for the physical maps I will be working on them today.

RedArmy, how soon do you think we'll be playing games? I haven't been the best at keeping up with the site lately.

I'm hoping that the final map will be posted in this thread today. Then we need the factions to discuss and their leaders to declare 6 additional hex aquisitions (by PMing me here). At that point we can start making challenges and hopefully games can begin this week if people want (for those who have their lists submitted. At this moment I believe that I have 10 or 11 of the 18 lists submitted).

Should be posted today. Just need to tinker with two of the planets hex layouts to match the physical map and then we're good to go.
