G'day,

This year's Epic campaign will start on May 29th 2011 at Tabletop Gamer's Association in East Victoria Park, Western Australia.
It will run for 6 weeks and lead up to a 1 day tournament on July 10th - There is Only War 2011.
There will also be a Mega-Battle on July 17th if there is enough interest.

Here's a LINK to the campaign player's pack. The player's pack also has a copy of every army list available for the campaign (which is why it's a 1.6MB download).
*And here's the LINK to the Imperial Navy units (which I forgot ::) ) and a few stat correction I found in the Player's pack.

The army lists that will be allowed are:
- Codex Astartes
- White Scars
- Scions of Iron
- Space Wolves
- Steel Legion
- Baran Siegemasters
- Minervan Legion
- Death Korps of Krieg
- War Gryphons Titan Legion
- Ghazgkhull's Warhorde
- Burning Death Speed Freeks
- Biel-Tan
- Saim-Hann
- Alaitoc
- Black Legion
- Stigmatus Covenant Cultist Chaos Army (Lost & the Damned)
- World Eaters
- Emperor's Children
- Thousand Sons
- Death Guard
- Red Corsairs
- Dark Eldar-Kabal of Pain's Way
- Necrons
- Tau

I'll be keeping track of the campaign (and putting up lot's of photos) on my blog.

Any potential players are welcome to post here to give me an idea of numbers.
Also, anyone with any questions can post away here - I'm happy to answer any queries I can.

Cheers for now,
Steve.

Here's the campaign map in a bit more detail.

I'll have about a dozen Home Sectors painted up and ready to go (I'll have more spare if needed).

i live in australia and am still sad, that he's on the wrong side of the country means both that i wont get to particpate in this, but also that all those awesome armies are unlikely to make it to my tournament in june too

We are up to 6 confirmed (2x Speed Freeks, Eldar, Guard, Marines and Necrons) with 3 more possibles (Marines, Tau and either Krieg or Marines).

Looks like we're getting a good spread of armies... this is gonna be fun :)

Well we're up to 13 players for the campaign so far...
(far beyond my wildest dreams I have to say).

Biel'tan Eldar - Georg (Olly hasn't chosen an army for sure yet but mentioned Eldar)
Alaitoc Eldar - Nato
Space Marines - Duro, Aaron
Space Wolves - Chris
Imperial Guard - Chops
Krieg - Matt
Tau - Simon
Ghazgkhull Orks - Ragnar
Speed Freeks - Adam, Jason
Necrons - Steve

I'm building 3 more tables worth of terrain, a snow board, a Necron Tomb World setting and more infested Tyranid stuff. There are practice games being played every week and lot's of 6mm goodies are winging their way to Perth as I type.

Amazing!

Oh nice! I shall follow this thread. I'm rather jealous I have to say, Sweden is a bit to far away from Perth.

I've ordered most of what I need and am learning the rules as I go, so hope to plant a flag or two in the name of humanity.

The Death Korps will purge this planet.

Week 1

Week 1 of the campaign saw 11 players playing 7 2000pt games over 4 different battlefields.

• 2x Speed Freek armies
• 1x Biel Tan army
• 1x Krieg army
• 1x Space Wolves army
• 1x Minervan Tank Legion
• 1x Tau army
• 2x Necron forces
• 1x Codex Marines army
• 1x Scions of Iron force

There were tactical mistakes, brave (some would say foolhardy) Engagements and some crazy dice (try a Guard Artillery Company winning an Engagement against an Ork Landa and 10 stands of Ork Bikers in close combat!). Several of the players are using the campiagn to learn Epic Armageddon for our upcomming 1 day tournament – There is Only War 2011 (July 10th).

The game results:

• Krieg vs Biel Tan – 4:0 to Krieg (Blitz, Take & Hold, They Shall Not Pass, Break Their Spirit)
• Speed Freeks vs Tau – 4:0 to Speed Freeks (Defend The Flag, Take & Hold, They Shall Not Pass, Break Their Spirit)
• Scions of Iron vs Space Wolves – 2:2 (Victory points win to Scions of Iron)
• Minervans vs Speed Freeks – 2:0 to Minervans (Take & Hold, They Shall Not Pass)
• Krieg vs Necrons – 3:0 to Krieg (Take & Hold, They Shall Not Pass, Break Their Spirit)
• Tau vs Codex Marines – 0:0 (Victory points win to Tau)
• Space Wolves vs Necrons – 3:0 to Space Wolves (Blitz, Take & Hold, Break Their Spirit)

Matt's Krieg are leading the campaign with 3 territories.

5 of the players in the campaign are very new to Epic with less than a handful of games each before now. I want to thank them (and indeed all the campaign players) for supporting Epic Armageddon (and me) and getting involved.
You guys are legends!

For more photos and details have a look HERE.

Cheers,
Steve.

If you like my Gorgons, you'll love my new Warhounds.

I'll have to post up some army photos soon, it's coming together really well.

Some people were asking why my Gorgon troop transports are all deployed facing backwards.

It's so that I can sustain fire their siege mortars on my own men if the enemy get behind the line and engage them. They are piloted by commissars, so they might as well act like it :D
