"The sectors Imperial forces stand ever vigilant against the encroaching darkness, bloodied but unbowed, hoping against hope that this, The Time of Ending is not as many have prophesied, humanity's last stand. But with the increasing alien and heretic threat, has the Time of Ending begun?"

++ASSERT YOUR SUPREMACY++

Is pretty cool yes, how can I determine whereto start?, just pick a place/
-
For this campaign, since it's intended to be anyone around the globe, no one has to worry about any map based stuff. On the link, there is a form that you send in after games that will support your faction. That's it! And the storyline will develop from there.
-
question:
do we get the points for submitting the participating fleets to gothicomp only if at the point we hand in the battle report they are already submitted to gothicomp?
or is it enough that they WILL be submitted to this years gothicomp?
because i could right away start with some games, but some of my ships i want in the fleet i will submit to gothicomp are not yet fully painted... ;D
-
If it was already submitted this year, it's fine! Feel free to play those games and submit those reports. You can check the gothicomp box whenever you submit it to gothicomp later on.
-
And just an update: the lore for the sector will be updated based on what players and what factions are playing. At this point, the lore is light because we don't know who's involved! The idea is to set a template for the campaign and develop it based on who submits battle information!
-
I'll play, though I don't care for the Gothicomp bonus points. 2 points every time? Plus my stuff isn't up to snuff, so meh to that. Are you stuck to a given faction, or just play whatever?
For instance, I'll likely be playing games with all my fleets: Ultramarines, Word Bearers, and Imperial Navy. Can I enter games for any/all?
-
I am assuming we Epic Armageddon players are not excluded either, yes? :)
Mind if I post this up in TacComs?

2 points if you submitted that fleet this year, not every game. Did you paint all of those fleets and they were entered this year? Then I think you should be able to check the box for that fleet if so.

I would hope EA players would join! Please post this anywhere you want!
-
Ok, Im going to try and get some testing in on Bakka coming up so this should fit right in with what you have going on.
-
Absolutely! I had a game tonight to submit to the process. I lost... :(
-
@ Seahawk:
participating is what counts for GothiComp.
GothiComp's main aim is to create a great yearly gallery. And, hey, the winner of adepticon should have his fleet(s) featured in it. ;)
-
We have a few battles submitted already! Keep 'em coming!
-
You should have some Epic reports inbound shortly too from the TacCom boards!!
-
We already have one!
-
So should we be using this for the map as this is focused on the Draco and surrounding sectors?: (http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_9dReqfKOOw0/TKoBffOos8I/AAAAAAAAACg/HTNMETmK4DI/s1600/Draco+Sector++Oct10.jpg)

If you would like, though the campaign isn't really a map based campaign in the strategic level, but more of a story based campaign guided by the battle results. Feel free to do any sort of lore writing based on that map or the other ones! Soon, there will be updated lore on each of the 5 planets on the segmentum map so that can help guide the lore you guys contribute!
-
Ah, ok good to know!
-
Small report sent!
-
There have been a bunch of reports submitted. Awesome!
-
how long is this planned to run?
I normally get a game a week of epic, so I shall continue to submit them if required....
-
Until the end of August. 4 1-month long campaign turns.
-
so, shall we submit games as they come or just one per month (aka campaign turn)?
-
As much as you are able to.
-
As much as you are able to.
oh, jesus..... you probably should't have said that..... :D
once i'm done with my final exams, PREPARE FOR BATREP SPAM!! ;D ;D
-
Hey everyone! We are half way through campaign turn one of four. There have been tons of battles submitted. At the end of May, there will be more added lore, results, posts of battle pictures, and the story update based on the turn outcome, possibly in video format. Keep those battle reports coming it!
-
Any restrictions on which lists allowed? Demiurg, Rogue Trader, dare I say... homegrown lists for random encounters (like skirmish games against the Fra'al, Stryxis, etc.)?
As you can tell... I went exotic for my fleet collection. LOL.

-
Nope! Don't feel restricted just keep it balanced.
-
second game result submitted :)
how many epic:armageddon results have you recieved so far?
-
2-3 Epic games so far.
-
How long is the campaign going to run. I likely won't be able to play anything untill July or possibly early september.
-
Ends Sept 1st. 4 one month campaign rounds.
-
Oh, I've failed to notice that thing until yet. But now I've posted in our austrian TT-Forums. Also I want encourage my mates. Would be very funny. Let's see.
-
I've just received my lot of epic stuff :D
Soon i might be able to post a brief report of an epic battle!
-
UPDATE: We had a low amount of submissions for the month of June so they will be lumped together with the July submissions.
-
I have 1 game of BFG to submit and an epic battle...
I'll submit those immediately :)
-
any movement on this?
I just submitted my last epic report of the campaign (next week we're playing warmaster so no more epic before campaign end... booo!)
can't wait to read the full write up!
-
Yeah i'm really excited! We want to know!!! ;D
