If it's not too late I'll go ahead and sign me and a couple buddies I've been teaching the game to.
Forces I will be bringing:
Silver Paladins (Dark Angel Successor) Strike Force Angelus [order]
Overall command falls to Commander Rache of the 1st Company
Elements of the 1st Company (Deathwing)
3rd Battle Company
(Approximately 4000 pts)
Tau Sa'Cea Sept [unaligned]
Lead by Shas'o Ukos
(Approximately 2500 pts)
Also, a commander's name (fluff) and Army Name would be good (unless Mark's Warband, Commander: Mark) is his army name I can help him out with a name if he needs one
Don't forget to have him sign up on the Disorder zetaboard (link on pg 1) so that i can add him to the rosters and assign him a posting for his army.
So, even though for purposes of this campaign, my buddies and I play Chaos Marines, Orks, Necron, Tau, and Eldar, we have a pretty tight Deathwatch group that we run every now and then. We had the idea that we would do a one-shot Deathwatch adventure based in the setting of this campaign (based upon vital worlds, objectives, enemy deployments, etc.)
Would that be something the organizers would be interested in? We could send in fluff and narratives of our missions, and depending on how well we perform, possibly add some victory points to one side or the other? I promise we won't try and lose strictly for the sake of gaining VP for Disorder and Unaligned, we love our characters and will fight to the death for the sake of a damn good story.
Two players added. my friend doesn't have a dakka account so i post for him.
Space marine, Shadow wolves, 1st and 4th comapanies, Captain Zeas and Chaplain Clavex(order)
Space marine, Grey knights, 3rd brotherhood, Grand master Roven Ignataus(order)

We'll see how well i cope.

I appreciate the offer BTW. You're not the only one to offer, and if i get swamped i'll definitely get in touch.

We would definitely be interested, drop me a PM
I love it! getting RPGs involved is something I really wanted to happen with this, the players packet is very vague on what to do with RPGs (Inquisitor is the only one in there) because of their very nature, but after you talk it over with soundwave, make sure you PM the relevant warzone commander and get it right with him too!
Every time I try to go to the boards I get Errors (Error Code: 7002:6032607) or (You do not have permission to access this topic.
Error Code: 4:6032607) Whats up with that?
You have to register on the board or it wont let you access anything. B5 is pretty kick@$$, tried to get my wife into it but she didnt bite :/ She a DS9 fan and sees B5 as inferior... even tho they had better plots and acting and well everything except graphics in the beginning (which got much better over time!).

As andrew said there, you have to register with the forum before being able to view topics or post replies.
After these last additions we will no longer be adding players to the campaign. (Red/Motyak if you wanna chime in here to override) We do regret having to have a cut off line but we cant continue to add folks either.

I totally understand if I don't make it in and will happily wait until the next campaign.
Red and I had a chat a day ago and decided we would have to cut it off, and now seems as good a time as any. Else the warzone commanders will have too much on their plates.

I should be able to add you in. PM me if you don't see your name on the zetaboard deployments by end of day.

** cough** too much? Never
Stilla good idea to cut it off though, or it will get confusing adding more armies on..
Anyone posted up an "example" batrep for an example of what to send in to our mods? If not I may give it a shot. I don't have an amazing camara, but I could play a small game against myself tonight to show how the batrep should be laid out.
Also, 427 armies taking part.... holy crap that's a lot. Can't wait to see how this campaign plays out. How often will we get "updates" to how the war is going? Every week? Every few days?
That depends on your warzone commander, right now I'm trying to give sitreps to my system (Dagon) every day, but we'll see how that goes. As frequently as we're able to put out the fluff necessary to write major reports.
There is an example batrep on the players guide topic op. unless your disorder than use the one on the disorder forum, link on the player guide topic op.
To my everlasting regret, I must resign from this campaign.
The Alpha Legion Fleet was unfortunately lost in the warp.
Fortunately, neither Primarch was aboard at the time

Which forum will that be listed in? And it might have been answered already, but when we finish a battle, who do we report the wins/loss too? Is it our respective "leader" or do we just post it in the thread your speaking of? ALSO, do we just report wins or do we post wins/loss/draws? Im assuming wins/loss/draws?
The different factions all have their own forums, and aren't really supposed to be reading each others
You send your Batreps in to your regional commander, based on which system you are fighting in (unless you are disorder... then it all comes to me ) . The thread mentioned will be communicating the current situation, at each week's end
Please report losses and draws also. I will be posting any losses and draws that I have/receive, and i'd hope the other commanders/players would too
Just wondering but where is the info into where I can find out where to invade, where I can report my wins and losses, etc. Im trying to find it but I cannot.

I suppose I should ask this, should we send in batreps via the various boards? Or on Dakka? I did send my one over the Disorder boards, just wanted to make sure I'm doing it right.

As long as it reaches me on either inbox, and as long as it meets the minimum detail level i posted in the Batrep Format thread on the Zetaboards, you're good. If a Batrep has insufficient detail, or otherwise isn't submittable, i'll let the player know so that they can fix it
I have to say, for the amount of registered people we (or, well, I) haven't gotten a lot of games reported in yet. I've had like 3 batreps since Monday so far.

I have a feeling that once the weekend hits we'll be getting flooded with batreps.
Well I guess we'll just have to go back to our usual Galaxy Plundering schedule then... We'll just have to wait for everyone to kill each other and then finish off the survivors then.
Hell i have trouble remembering to take a screen shot on vassal every tirn much less an actual photo woth a seperate camera . Notes on the other hand im ok about, i have been keeping a comp book with me and notating as we go along.
I know I am not part of the campaign but i had to note in and say the various banners are top notch. I went through the entire thread JUST to see all the various ones.

Sorry to say, but sign up has closed. Apologies, we had to call it quits at some point so that warzone commanders could focus on what was happening in their zone, and not worry about a constant stream of new players.
Someone needs to edit the title to mention that sign ups are closed, so people will know. I'll admit, it's probably a bit confusing to see the sign up thread still going only to be told that signups are over.
Also, if you guys think you'll be doing another campaign, I'll look through the thread and get all the names of profiles that are late so you can contact them for the next one if you'd like
Next time I would ask we allow new players to join. Allowing new players to join in would help balance out players that drop from the campaign and could be called reinforcements to which ever side they join. It also keeps the campaign fresh!
I'd be willing to help write fluff for any faction really if that would help take some of the work load off the Mods. Just gotta tell me what msg to convey
Once we have the mechanics thrashed out we can look at fluff
What might be a good idea is for each side to have a PR officer to talk up their side's victories on the shared forum, and downplay their losses, in an 'in-character' kind of way
Sounds reasonable to me, I just loves me some fluff!
Maybe have one MOD per "faction" (Necrons, CSM, IG ect ect) to kinda smooth out the workload for everyone?
It would seriously complicate the campaign mechanics to have each faction have its own mechanic and goals though. Even with one mod per faction to keep the players on track it would make the admin side of the campaign a lot more complicated to run.
One of the main goals for the next campaign is improved communication, with daily or at least weekly updates of fluff and crunch. For two factions it's possible to get all that fluff and crunch sorted fairly quickly (though it still takes an unreasonable amount of time to run the math and type up all the fluff in a cohesive manner). For six or more factions ...yeah...
Personally i'd like to keep the next DDWWC pretty simple, not add more complexity to it. Find out what we can do, and how much effort/time is involved per faction for getting daily/weekly fluff and crunch out on time in a cohesive manner.
DDWWC 3 could then take those results, and up the complexity level if need be.
Part of the issue, for me, is that I don't want the fluff to go the GW route, with 90% of the stories contradicting (as they would if multiple writers were bashing them out in a hurry). This works on a setting-level, but in a real-time single system conflict it would just be confusing.
Another issue we had in DDWWC1 was that we had a couple of mods just vanish due to one reason or another. If a faction Mod just vanished that faction would be SOL.
