Bravo Hammer! Thoroughly enjoyable and memorable! And I was there in the first place

Merchant - those bases were done simply from a sheet of plastic tiling I bought from a hobby expo years ago.

Hey Migsula and crew, great stuff, glad to finally see the finale!

I do have one question, In the above picture of the beginnings of Inquisitor Gauer's retinue, what did you you use for the bionic foot on those Cadian legs? Is it from a servitor of some type?

So Migsula, after we get the exciting conclusion to this, what is on your plate next?

Once I get my Homeboys motivated, I'll start a blog although I'm not sure it will be as enjoyable as this one.

I hope to run a Planetary invasion campaign to Rhisienne eventually, with =i=munda, 40k and Apoc games all tied together, with possible BFG too.

With the lessons learned from this though, it may be a different set up and more mutually committed as one half of our games group has the focus span of a rat and a cucumber respectively and the second half can be overbearing and overly active

That was fantastic.

Really makes me wish I had some local mates who would be willing to make and narrate a campaign like this, the quality is really tremendous!

I applaud every effort you guys have made as a team and as artists, and this has been a brilliant and interesting project to follow.

Huzzah!

We laughed - knowing that better men would come,

He wars on Death, for lives; not men, for flags.

Total awesome on the whole thing!

Beautiful models all around and big, epic moments and action. Just like gaming should be!

And yeah, total mad props for Col. Hammers report too!

And complete awe for the temple structure terrain where much of the action seemed to take place...

Thanks guys, this whole project have been a pleasure to observe.

Great stuff guys and Hammer, well done on an entertaining yet concise report mate.

@ Migs, Northern and Hammer and (JRN!) - Top notch scenery, story, and above all, figures!

Looking forward to Legion and possibly Broodheim?

Cheers,

Wow, just wow.

Lovely terrain and a very entertaining report! Kudos to all involved.

Any chance that the Jade Vessel will reappear in future storylines? I have a feeling there's quite a bit more to discover about it...

Seriously though this is really nice, and tahnksfor the visual effects, makes it nicer to look at and more realistic.

Loving the models too, wish I had a group to fdo this with :(

Thakn you people for the kind words!

Now, having used my mad Paint skills and done all the CGI in the report, I can propably wait for the job offers from WETA workshop or ILM.


Oh, by the way, all terrain in the reports are made by Migsula and Northen, execpt the big central "cathedral" piece that was done by Sickbunny. It's great to play in nice terrain indeed!

Hell no


Automatically Appended Next Post:
I think there where a lot of lessons learned and we really had a wonderful time and I think the campaign created some of the best GW hobby miniatures of all time, in how not only was the modeling creative and dedicated, but the characters really came alive and some were second incarnations of valiant or emergent heros.

I'd like to thank and Congratulate Northern for winning the campaign and generally being in a class of his own in how he treated everyone with utmost respect in his team effort, keeping to every schedule and participating in all the expected ways. Hammer once again created great models, wrote a few really nice stories and provided us with a few absolutely awesome reports - many thanks mate! My little brother Pete was a great addition to the early parts of the campaign and a serious contender before missing the summer action due to a Tennis tournament abroad. Gurkmannen sadly left the scene after game two and pretty much failed every single team deadline before that, but we hope to have him for the next campaign in better circumstances

Northern took and shopped some great overview images from the report that I strongly recommend you guys checking out. Our battlereporter had problems integrating them to his report, but check them our for a nother angle at the action.

example:



rest of them can be found here:

Credit to you all, this has been a lot of fun to watch develop. The big end scrum was extra groovy (nice work Hammer), with so many gangs, old and new, going head to head. Speaking of gangs, I just made sure to save all those gang shots, loads of inspiration in there. In particular Hammer's 2 servitorettes - those have gotten me thinking all morning about things to do with this box of plastic 'nettes I've had sitting on my work desk for 6 months
