Well this right here seems pretty interesting, truth be told. If its not too late count me in.

Captain Baine-Night Lords · 11-30-2006

i have an idea.....Abaddon is on another crusade to take over all of the planets in the Eye of Terror......i had like an idea of it kind of being like DOW

C...except with planets.......anyway back to the story line.....Abaddon is on another Black Crusade and he is planing on taking over all of the planets in the Eye of Terror.....each planet has Necrons that have been awakened in search for battle....the Black Templar have been called to duty to stop Abaddon from taking over the planets and to finally finish him off....and Tyranids have now smelled new meat and are following the armies to every planet they go to....the Orks are dying for a WAAAGH! and are going to take over any planet to get as much combat as they want...the Eldar are trying to awaken their god Khaine so they can stop all evil....the Dark Eldar are looking for the same thing as Chaos..........the Ork army will be the Goffs...the Necrons will be alot of armies since they all have been dead on almost all of the planets.....and ill need time to figure some more out

just out of interest, what exactly do you mean by "I specialise with graphics", afterall, i could say exactly the same thing, i have an A in Advance Higher Graphic Communication and am currently on a Dip/HE course at Uni which focuses on design and presentation.

Well I have qualifications in art, design and ICT, but all I was doing was stating my intrest in the campaign development and giving a reason why i would be good at working on the project.

historis · 12-03-2006

If you want some ideas, you might want to check out the campaign we're putting together over at rivercitywarlords. We've got an online narrative campaign put together (it starts in less than two weeks), and we've got some serious interest from Speartip and 12th AG (I don't know how many are coming in from there, though).

experiment 626 · 12-04-2006

hmmmm... very interesting all this! looks like odion will again be sending the men of the 13th lodis regiment into the fires of war

if you want some really unique senario ideas and such, pm me as i have about 60 or so missions from the astronomi-con tournaments - many of the senarios also introduce the NPC player in that there's a 3rd force on the table, usually related to the mission objectives. this extra force (for example, a convoy carrying valuable supplies or some random viscious predators!) acts randomly and will usually engage the nearest units to them. (yours or your opponents

)
it adds another level of tactical play to the game as usually you have to stop the 3rd force, but there's also a chance your men might go too far and destroy whatever the 3rd force has that you want... it also serves to add a really great narative to games as well - perfect for a campaign setting

i also have rules for groups getting together and playing the infamous 'grand battle' or what gw canada have dubed 'floorhammer'
basically it's a bring whatever you think you can handel and play. got a baneblade? well now you can use it! want to see your entire 5000pts chaos army in action? go for it! ever want to try a fully airborn guard company? bring it on!
i figure this might be a fun way to also fight out a climax battle - the last battle where each force simply sends their full might into the looming apocalypse

one other thing though... i feel it would be better if we wait untill the new year to actually get a campaign going. i know for myself that while i'd love to play right now, i'm simply far too busy what with the holidays up-coming and all!

cheers!

this may be an off-the wall suggestion regarding gameplay for the campaign but one thing i loved about the Eye of Terror Redux campaign (featured in WD um... 285-290 or thereabouts) was the event cards which could be used during gameplay. certain cards can only be used at certain times to represent 'real' events. I played a short campaign using these and found them very entertaining (if unbalanced at times)

id stay well clear of the instability and point systems used. too complex for their own good

hmmmm... just checked! eye of terror re-dux articles are WD290 & WD291 (north american issue)
the event cards are specifically in the second part of the article (WD291!)

they could be an interesting narative twist to a campaign! got my vote anyways

though of corse we'd no doubt have to write up our own, unless we want to all go back and holiday around the eye of terror for the campaign?!!

cheers!

DeAd_cOmMaNdO · 12-04-2006

well if the event cards idea is used ill volunteer myself for writing some up, based on the flavour of the campaign. I could do a set of 6 for each race every week or something like that for the course of the event

Crimson Knight · 10-16-2007

Hi,
I am starting a campaign for battlefleet and I like the idea of the eye of terror redux card, but I can't find them anywhere. Anybody having them?

Drax · 10-16-2007

if you guys want any colour text writing, i am happy to give it a go. i know i haven't posted any fluff on here yet, but if you want to see what i am like, i am willing to show you what i can do. give me some test topics (nothing obscure please) and i'll post it up and you can take it or leave it.

Celestial Guardian · 11-12-2007

Is this actually still being developed? If not, do yu mind if I expand on what we have and present it as a campaign for the mag? I have rules, but am in dire need of fluff. I cna make my stuff work with what you guys have, and maybe we could start playing this thing!

Inquisitor Rosenadel · 11-12-2007

Well, it was put on hold for a while, but there is a site for it:
http://www.40kterra.com/campaign/

Most of the fluff is up there, and we had lots set up, but it just never got started.
