I don't have any program for Doc to PDF converting, and a really crappy home PC... I tried once to get the free PDF Factory program, but it didn't work.
Besides, if someone has time to crack the password, he has time to write his own list, without stealing my work. Right?

Hello one and hello all.

I have two messages for you: one bad and one good.

BAD ONE: The bad one is, that I won't continue the Dark Angels list in its' current form, as I have undertaken a project much grander in it's proportions.

GOOD ONE: The good one is: Fear not! For the new project I mentioned is... The Epic Index Astartes!

Yes, that's right! Epic Index Astartes!

The grand objective is to cover all 18 known First Founding Chapters, including both the righteous loyalist warriors of the God-Emperor (or lickspittles of the false Emperor, in another point of view), and the blasphemous heretics known as the Traitor Legions (or the rightful masters of the galaxy, from other point of view). Wherever your loyality is, you will be almost certain to find somehting for yourself within this compilation.

In the first version, though, not all of the First Founding Chapters will be present, with some of them left out due to my lack of knowledge about them. Noone is perfect.

As you know the Dark Angels ARE the First Founding Chapter, actually the first one founded, so their list will not be continued in the current independent form, but instead incorporated into EIA. This said, I hope you'll enjoy the compilation when it's finally released.

Currently I'll release some part-completed pieces, including Dark Angels, Iron Hands, Ultramarines, Salamanders and Raven Guard. This version is numbered 0.0, as it's work-in-progress, but please feel free to give suggestions and make comments.

What's the scale of Epic:Armageddon? How much distance does, say, 10cm translate to?

(I'm thinking of making a "crashd rok" terrain piece, which I can do by buying a 30cm polystyrene hemisphere, if it's to scale...)

Yes Epic is around 1/300 to 1/285 scale.  But remember game scale and model scale are a bit different.  Jervis talks about this in the original E:A downloads.  I'll see if I can find it.  However an Ork Roc in Epic scale would be VERY BIG, IMO !  :o

Agreed - a smallish asteroid which could be used for a Rok can be anything from a few 100m to a few km large - building it to scale would mean having one at least 1m in length/diameter! :oo

I think 30cm will be a little small, but then so what.  It could be part of the larger structure or a broken off piece etc.  As long as it looks good, and the weaponry etc on the structure are to scale, I wouldn't worry.

According to the EA FAQ, each turn is 15 minutes, and 30cm is 1km.

doh, that makes the average rok over a meter in diameter. Might have to go to plan B: rok fragment.

Why not?  They arent too aerodynamic and would be prone to orbital entry damage.  

..you could have a big door for the telyporta, and have reinforcements pour out of it!

How about a Hulk Fragment...that would be cool too...

Yup !  That's what I remember reading too Markco !  Thanks ! And you could still make a small Roc, maybe more like a big Drop Pod or Drop Roc ... they are Orks, so everything doesn't have to be uniform or even logical ! :oo  WAAAARGH ! :D

Hi!

Interesting. I think Epic A would be the first epic version to have a formal scale mentioned.

Yeah, I was surprised that Jervis gave the time and groundscale details.  Previously when pressed he has said that these details were up to players, plus each tank could represent one tank or a platoon of tanks etc.

Hi!

While actual scale is always something to debate amongst players, it always good when the designer clears it up from the get go, instead of it getting argued over. I also think it gives the rules a certain "credibility" and constancy which are important in any rules.

Why do the Hellbore, Moles and Termites, which did have a Firepower rating in Epic40k, not have any weaponry at all in Epic A?  I'm just asking, because it makes my Hellbore and Moles kinda useless in Epic A, and that sucks. :angry:

my 2cents,
