I am trying to rustle up some interest in a local Epic:A ladder campaign and as part of that I am looking for some ideas on how to keep the gaming fresh over the course of a month or two month campaign

Anyone have any ideas?

There's a campaign supplement in the vault at SG but it seems to be missing a lot of pieces??

There a concept like that in one of the old W/Ds for E40K, IIRC ...

I thought it was here, but now I can't find it....

I remember seeing it and it said something about downloading zipped objective cards or something, but I coudln't find these?

Anyone know what I'm talking about or am I dreaming this?

Markconz, I believe you are talking about the "Battle for Kaeron" campaign that I wrote for Fanatic a while back. They put the Location Cards in the play aids section.

Ah great thanks!

We introduced quite a nice feature when playtesting EW that might help, when first taking an objective, add a random chance that it is infected by critters. We did a city fight with the occasional zombies horde appearing, but Orks, Chaos Cultists or Genestealers would work just as well.

Hi PG,

I think the most important thing is to write an engaging storyline to get the players more involved.

Another idea is to have the storyline be able to change absed on the events on the games.

In other words, let the players know that the tree isn't fixed... with the warp, Eldar warp ways, Orky pirates, lost Imperial fleets, there are lots of options to make fun changes.

Good luck and please keep us updated on your project.

Shalom,
Maksim-Smelchak.

Its been a bit of a pain to get gamers organized so at the moment I am focusing on getting my Guard army finished and then doing some demo games.
