Firebase is going to be a quarterly webzine dealing with all things in the 40k universe.  I think this is an excellent opportunity for the Epic community to produce some articles that more than just the Epic community will see.

I am actually going to be one of the 4 gamers in the Tale of 4 Fleet Commanders for BFG with my Imperial Fleet.  I was wondering how much interest we had here and if there was anyone besides me who may want to be the point of contact over at Warseer concerning the Epic articles for Firebase.  If interested PM Darkseer on Warseer, may also want to start a discussion thread on the Specialist Games Sub-Forum to get info from people there.

Or if the general opinion here is that I do it let me know.

Just Curious, is this site trying to fill the void left when the other "Rumor Site" went away?  ???

Not that there is any negative to someone trying to fill the role, I just did not know about it and thus am curious.

Warseer opened up a couple of weeks after Portent closed, if that's what you mean.

Evil & Chaos did you talk to Darkseer?

A reason to try and get some Epic Articles in Firebase (even if sometimes they are taken from Incoming) is to give exposure to the game in something that 40k players are going to be reading.  This is why I think trying to get stuff in Firebase will be a good idea.

Warseer has replaced Portent, it is actually pretty much the same crowd as Portent and run by the same people. Portent's server crashed much like ours did and it took them a while to get back up and running.

It?s a great idea.  Forget exposure in White Dwarf ? anyone sane enough to consider playing Epic won?t be buying that anymore!  

Vermis, what?s the problem with Warseer?

Thanks guys, I wondered if it was Portent II.

I had a quick chat with ArtificerArmour (Who's running the BFG/Specialist side of things) on Warseer.

In order to get an Epic feature we need at minimum:

- a modelling article.
- a tactica.
- a battle report.


September 1st is the first issue.

The fact that it is Portent II, and carries on the fine tradition of mass whinging and posturing that saturates it and drives me nuts.

I mean, I can deal with some GW-bitching, and I like to do a bit myself.  But sheesh.

But I may be biased.

Eh WarTent's not so bad if you stick to the right forum sections. And they are the premiere GW news source.

I would think that, like Portent, this site will have it's role to play in my web surfing. It just will not be a main site for me.
