Welcome to Alfakta, the international interstellar space campaign!"The Alfakta sector sir?", the young scholar shuffled his notes at the direct question from the Lord Holder.
"It's reported to be a verdant place, but infested by all sorts of strange and dangerous and wondrous creatures. There's even a rumour that the guild of arms dealers have put out serious bounties on capturing planets there."Yes, it's back and this time kicking dust!New and improved features include:
* report interface
* battle report forum
* sponsored prizes
* a website of our own
Sponsorship & Prizes
We are presently supported by Baccus, Brigade Models, Dark Realm Miniatures and Future War Commander. A big thanks to them for that.
We hopefully have a couple more jumping on the bandwagon shortly. Prizes are split in two major groups; running prizes (second planet won by a faction), end phase prizes (to be won as the campaign is won and closes.
Ok, so what's all this about then?
It's a way to combine all our battles into one big campaign, regardless of where we are and what we play!
And as we speak of it, why not take a look at how the map look:
http://alfakta.org/Especially the report interface! Easy as pie to report a battle. Check it out!
Any battles in the various small scale sci-fi systems can be reported and will be used, as well as all space battle systems.
Examples of systems would be Epic, Future War Commander, Seeds Of War, Iron Cow, Dirt Side, BFG, Full Thrust, Starmada, B5:ACTA etc.
Looking at the map you'll notice that there's five faction battling for supremacy. Some words might be needed here.
Machine are those that are based on various cortex, matrix, IA etc. Such as Necron and Andrayada.
Devour are those that mainly see everything else as pure food, such as Tyranids, Worms (Hastur?) and Skyth.
Alien are the various xenomorphs that act and think almost as humans, such as Eldar, Orks, Centaur, Tau etc.
Humans mustn't have examples, right?
Chaos is a little bit special. There's those said to be it from their system. There's also another instance of them. Which is when two of the same type make battle (if for nothing else the evil and chaotic powers laugh and celebrate!). In this case you have to decide before the battle who is "pure" and who is "chaotic".
You also see three coloured dots at each planet. That's to mark ownership and theatre between two factions. There's always only two factions contesting a planet. Once all dots are of one colour that planet is fully in that faction's control. Exact planet for each conflict is decided by which are closest and uncontested.
And it works like what and what must I do?
You as a player needs to do two extra things when having a battle.
1) Decide what faction each of you fight for.
2) Report the battle's outcome at alfakta.org/report.php (preferably before sunday 24:00).
And then perhaps hope for a third to happen. That you're the one conquering the second planet and win the army package (or rules) from one of the sponsors!
Yes, each sponsor is in for two prizes each! Good chaps they are!
Gentlemen, start your plasmaguns!Erik M
