This is the thread for campaign some of us are running at our LGS. We've got 10 players total, and we're doing an integrated 40k/BFG campaign. This thread is mostly for players to post their attacks ahead of time and to arrange linkup for games in case they can't make it otherwise.

Alliances have to be posted. Current alliances are:
Drakkus Empire (Scott) and Thousand Sons (Phil)
Amoria Inc (Jake), and the Void Reaver Corsairs (Brooke)
All Imperial Players are still allied
Void Reavers and the Craftworld Ibraesil (Joe)
Tau Empire (Brad) and Thousand Sons (Phil)

Turn one's attacks thus far:
Amoria Inc attacked and captured the Century System
Dark Angels attacked the UA 5937 system and destroyed the Chaos defenses there.
Phaeron Imotep's Necrons were repulsed by the Thousand Sons at the Lleh system.
Craftworld Ibraesil and the Void Reavers successfully raided the Sautek system, unopposed by the Necrons
Phaeron Imotep's Necrons conducted a Planet Strike on a renegade Imperial world in the Ramses system.

Also, here's a map so people can track what's happening, symbols will be updated by Tuesday of next week.

Other players from the group, feel free to post any battle reports etc. Please post your Turn 2 attacks/responses by Tuesday night of next week. Order of attacks: Amoria Inc (Imperial), Tau Empire, Dark Angels, Inquisition, Drakkus Empire, Thousand Sons, Craftworld Eldar, Phaeron Imotep, Space Wolves, Void Reavers Corsairs, and Lamba Force (Necrons)

Two additional battles took place over the weekend. The Tau attacked the maiden world Noxxia in the Scabus system in a planet strike against the region of Maiden's Rest. After a bloody fight the Tau emerged victorious against the Exodite defenders. Additionally the Tau seized the dead system Necrossa, and established a penal colony there.

The forces of Phaeron Imotep attacked the renegade Imperial world of Ramses IV. Imotep's planet strike emerged victorious and seized the Antioch Desert region.

In addition the Tau played the Water Caste Diplomats Ethereal Edict and the isolated Dakota system surrendered without a fight.

Turn Two Attacks

Amoria Incorporated will attack the Regency system with 1450 points in a Planetary Assault against the Draenor Forgeworld. In addition, Amoria will utilize its Pirates appeal to launch a 700 point convoy raid against the Drakkus system.

Turn One Question:

So were the Tau helping me out? Because that's my system and I beat the Exodites (beat Joe) in a close fight. Just a bit confused haha

Also, The Suru Anomaly now connects Drakkus Prime and Lleh.

And unless I'm mistaken, The Thousand Sons, Phaeron Imhotep, and the Drakkus Empire are allied.

Defending drakkas with full fleet

Tau empire consolidates holdings. No attacks.

Eldar of Ibraesil and the Dark Angels are now allied and are engaging the Bloodaxe Stars with their combined fleets.

Posting for Imotep's Necrons: they're launching a planetary assault against the Amoria system and a planet strike scenario against the planet Amoria, due to the discovery of a C'tan Shard.

Thousand Sons attack Mirrorsky/Neveah (whichever is IG and not Necron) with a full fleet and add in the raider/wolf pack fleet that I get from Port Chiss.

Red Harvest raid against Chaos failed in Regency sector.

The Void reavers are going to raid Port Chiss with 750pts.

So the Thousand Sons' attack on Mirrorsky was a complete success and I am invading the planet (no ground games played yet). My primary Army will land at the undefined tile Kilkeny, I will use my Daemon army from the Suru Anomaly to assault the Spaceport, and I may use a Cultist Uprising card to assault the Subterranean Tile.. The Thousand Sons' Warlord is now at 20 renown and is a 'Tyrant' with 1 re-roll and the Mark of Nurgle. I recovered the Planet Killer Prototype drifting off Lleh, rolled a 5 for my d3 ship upgrades from the Suru Anomaly, and converted Lleh's Forge World to a Tzeench Daemon World.

My +2 Veteran Points from Hades are on a Khornate Terminator squad (unassigned)

The ship registry includes:

- 1 Chaos Space Hulk with 3 upgrades (-5cm before a turn, +1 shield, +5cm movement) (source: Powers of Chaos)
- 1 Desolator-class Battleship "Photep" with at Ld. 10
- 1 Planet Killer Prototype at Ld. 8
- 1 Carnage-class Cruiser "The Scourge of Mirrorsky" with 2 upgrades (no negative shift for >30in, always a positive shift after other modifiers) at Ld. 8
- 1 Carnage-class Cruiser with at Ld. 8
- 2 Carnage-class Cruisers at Ld. 7, 7
- 2 Executor-class Grand Cruisers at Ld. 7 and 9 (source: BFG Magazine #4)

The Red Harvest descended upon Amoria in search of the lost C'tan shard. The resistance of the Imperial Guard was overcome even with the valiant Commissar Yarrick bruising his way into the heart of the invaders. Yet the shard has eluded the Nightbringer's minions in the mountainous region of Amoria and the search continues...

Triarch Praetorians gain 3 veteran points, spending 2 to gain Feel No Pain.
Necron Overlord slayed the Master of the Forge during a challenge and gains 2 veteran points.
Monolith, Doom Scythe, 2 Necron Warrior units, Destroyer Lord, and the Immortal unit gain 1 veteran point.

The Red Harvest now has 3 Renown points.

Hey all, edited the Starmap with everything I could remember. Lemme know if anyhting is off and/or what needs to be added.

So are these correct?

Looks pretty close. End of Turn 2 batreps: Drakkus Empire repulsed a Dark Eldar pirate raid against Drakkus Prime. Amoria Inc captured the Regency system but was unsuccessful in a planet strike against the world of Draenor. The Red Harvest successfully raided the world of Amoria while Imotep's Necrons have yet to fight the planet strike attack in the system. The Thousand Sons commander seized the Mirrorsky system. The Void Reavers Corsairs still have two raids against the Tau Empire to complete and the Craftworld Eldar found no Orks present in the Bloodaxe Stars much to their confusion.

Turn 3 Attacks: Due to the withdrawal of the Inquisition from the sector capital, Amoria Inc will attack Harlequin Station and drive out the renegade Imperial forces which have usurped control. I'll then use my fueling station from the Vernon system to launch a second space attack against the Lexington system with the same fleet. Total point value, 1k, planet strike scenario against both worlds.

My Turn 2 and 3 Ground Attacks will be sent on Mirrorsky as soon as I can find an IG player willing to play 3 battles.

Turn 3 for me is allying with kalspriggs, attacking hammer station with bfg fleet. Ground battle vs eldar at port void due to 2cards giving me a wrap gate on the planet.

Ixidor, I'll play out the mirrorsky defense if you want. I'm trying to knock out my BFG battles before Thursday. Also, as a side note, the Necrons failed their BFG 'the bait" raid against the Amoria system, but succeeded in their ground raid there and recovered a C'tan shard. The Necrons successfully destroyed the necron hulks in the system and gained 5 appeals. Hoopified, how many points against hammer station so I can be sure the Tyranid Fleet is fully prepped?

I won't be here Thursday :/ so I'll have to play the games up on the hill. Thanks for the offer though and I'll accept next week if I still can't get a game this week.

Also Hoopified answer your PMs so we can get this Warhound stuff underway.

The Eldar of Ibraesil are defending Port Void with full fleet (but will not be present for the battle, will try to be there Saturday).


Automatically Appended Next Post:
scratch that, I cant retaliate with my fleet nor will I be present for the ground battle all the same but defending all the same

The Amoria Corporation successfully annexed the Harlequin and Lexington systems and in addition secured a second tile on the planet of Century in the Century system.

Amoria's Corporation's fleet now consists of:
(Using the Segmentum Solar Fleet List)
Emperor Class Battleship: Imperator Praetor
Lunar Class: Werewolf
Mars Class: God of War
Dominator Class: Ferrus Mannus
Dauntless Class: Fearless
Cobra SQDN: Kobra Kai
Sword SQDN: Machetes
Space Marine Strike Cruiser: Aquilonia
Space Marine Strike Cruiser: Aquarius
Space Marine Battle Barge: Severian
Nova SQDN: Spartans
Hunter SQDN: Ocelots

The Eternal Legion will fight out a Space fight from last week over Pius Primus and invade Mirrorsky using my ground moves from last turn and this turn. Space battle for this turn tbd.

Here's the map for end of turn 3. The Inquisitorial worlds have all fallen with the recall of the Inquisitor Lords from the Sector. In addition the Drakkus invasion of the Hammer System met with defeat as the quiescent Hive Mind stirred to defend itself. Amoria Corp has established an alliance with the Drakkus Empire in order to open new sources of revenue, and has properly raised their tithes to encourage the Imperium to ignore this minor transgression.

Alliances
Drakkus and Thousand Sons are allied
Drakkus and Amoria Corp are allied
Dark Angels and Amoria Corp are allied
Void Reavers and Craftworld are allied
Tau and Thousand Sons are allied
Phaeron Imotep and Thousand Sons are allied.
Phaeron Imotep and Amoria Corp are allied.

Amoria Incorporated launches two attacks. The first a 2500 point Planetary Assault against Mirrorsky and the Thousand Sons blasphemers who have attempted to capture the system. The same fleet will continue to attack the Mirrosky system in a Fleet Engagement. Again Amoria Corp uses the Vernon system's Gas Mine to allow its offensive fleet to attack twice.

Phaeron Imotep, wants his revenge and is going to attack the craftworld eldar on UA 5182

The Eternal Legion will use a card on the assaulting fleet over Mirrorsky (I'll show you Thursday) and counter the ground invasion. Amoria Corp should be aware there will be Cultist Uprisings (Card) and a Daemonic Assault (Suru Anomaly) underway on the two tiles not encompassed by the battle that we fight. Also, Joe allowing, his Revenant Titans will serve as the Traitor Legio Tartarus during the Mirrorsky Campaign.

The Eternal Legion's fleet is still not committed as far as turn 4 is concerned.

Also as a side note my turn 3 fleet engagement may force the Amoria Corp to fight my fleet over Pius Primus (not a big deal due to the card I used). Also, how do you get to a Planetary Assault on Mirrorsky without beating my fleet?

Due to the fact that I will not be able to be there again this Thursday due to a mandatory event that night and the likelihood that the following week ill be unable to attend the following week either, I'll respectfully bow out of the campaign. I will however still try to show whenever possible but instead of campaigning I'll be the guy who plays when another player is not actively engaging another char. (this is also partly due to a lack of models to keep up with the output of the craftworld for my fleet)

I will finish my assault on port void and my fleet will be raiding hammer system

Will any of you be around earlier in the day? Me n Joe have a mandatory briefing at 1930 :/
