Hey All,

I've made this thread to judge interest in a Toronto-based Warhammer 40K campaign. It would be story-based as its a campaign not a competition, though that has yet to be written up as what comes first is seeing if there is enough people interested to make this viable. So please reply to this thread if you're interested and feel free to include any questions or comments. Chris from Legends Warehouse has said that Legends is willing to help out with this campaign by providing use of their gaming space as well as possible custom scenery and/or possible prizes.

Please include in your reply where in Toronto you are located AND where you can drive/travel to, what armies you would be using for this campaign, how many points you have for that army and what your availability is. (ex. could you play one game per week? one game per two weeks? multiple times per week?)

Please Note: In the past it has been noted as an issue that people have expressed high interest in campaign events but then turn out not to have the time for it. So, if at all possible, please ensure that if you are signing up for this you can set aside time each week for this. This DOES NOT have to be in the form of only games played, it can be for any of the below-listed point categories.

-------------------------------------------------------

Participation Categories

The campaign will be points-based with multiple categories contributing to an overall win or loss for a given faction/objective/etc. For example, some ideas for categories that may give points are:

- Objective or Kill based games
- Model Scratchbuild/Conversion/DIY projects
- Fluff / Story Objectives and/or Competitions
- Army/Model Painting Objectives and/or Competitions
- (In consideration) 40K Audiobooks or Books completed.
- (In Consideration) 40K-themed multiplayer video game matches. Ex. Warhammer Space Marine or the strategy PC games.


-------------------------------------------------------

(Optional) 40K Secret Santa

It's the almost summer and I speak of Santa?! Heresy you say! Nay! It's 40K Secret Santa, where you simply include in your reply to this thread that you want to participate and you will receive in your PM box your assigned secret santa recipient. You will be responsible for getting and delivering to them a (less than $10) 40K themed gift, preferably something you converted or scratchbuilt yourself. The deadline for this will be August 1 so you've got lots of time to think up something inexpensive and cool, and get it to them. We're all located in Toronto so delivery should be easy enough and people will be matched based on proximity.

As a tip I would simplify things and take a look at the Planetary Empires campaign rule set or even the Crusade of Fire rule set as means of organizing a structured campaign. Good luck!

I am located in Claremont (Pickering). I can usually get 1 game in every two weeks or so. Legends is best to play or my own house. I have a board with lots of terrain. Will not play in a GW store.
My armies include:
Ultramarines up to 3500pts
Tyranids up to 3000pts
Imperial Guard up to 2000pts
Orks up to 2000pts

I split my time between brampton and Toronto (kingsway/queensway area), I am usually down for at least 1 game a week. Legends works best for me, I also refuse to play at GW stores.

Armies:

Flesh Tearers (BA): 7000 pts
Tyranids: 2500 pts
Eldar: 2500 pts

I am located in Vaughan. I can usually play on weekends; I do travel for work some weekends.

Armies:

Dark Eldar - 3000
Dark Eldar/eldar - 3500
Tyranids - 3000

Apologies for the bit late reply, been debating whether or not a campaign could be reasonably done with only four total participants. I'm leaning towards not, unless all of you who have replied as desiring to participate say otherwise.If you all (skycapt44, Rhythm, Dark eldar elite) say that we should continue with the campaign, I'll proceed to starting it up by whipping up some fluff and structure for the campaign.If not, then we'll take a raincheck on the campaign until such a point when we have sufficient participants.

So, what say you, fellow wargamers?
