Now that sounds like a plan, maybe with the Rough riders army included as well? or open it up to all Imperial Ab-humans. There is a whole world of Fan-dex/ conversion possibilities there.

i would be up for that game, would love to have a rough rider army ready in time but i doubt that will happen any time soon lol

Well hopefully something will be ready for the new year, charge of thehw light brigade even.

Cool, in that case I'll distribute my work-in-progress Squat Codex once I'm near a computer again - probably early next week I reckon.

The main thing that is needed is some top-quality fiction pieces and some unit descriptions. Most of the units are complete in terms of stats, special rules and wargear, but one thing I have very consciously avoided is any points-costing as yet.

Once I've emailed around the 'skeleton' document I'd like to structure the development so that we complete one unit at a time (perhaps one unit a week?), rather than going at it piecemeal. I think that way we will end up with a working, cohesive army book in a relatively short period of time!

Fiction eh? Ill make some enquiries!

Cool - One thing, just remember lots of newer squats player folks will be using forgefathers (i own up to that to!) So some rules to reflex those models would be great!

Are there flogging to be a velar isn't of trollslayers?

I hate auto correct!

Is there going to be a variant of trollslayers?

Graham has got an entry for them Oath-breakers i would prefer to seem them called Space trollslayers seems a bit cheesy (granted we are talking space dwarves)

Stunties, eh? Round, hairy and bearing grudges so long, they've forgotten why...

Trollslayers? Oathbreakers? Berserkers? Orkslayers? Stompaslayers?

Whatever they're called, they need to feature!

I'm liking that already... more ginger hair in 40k is a must. Wait until I start my pre-heresy wolves!

Ok, I'm back from my holidays now and ready to distribute the latest draft of my Codex: Squat Stronghold to those who are keen to help get it finished.

If you do want to help out, please PM me your email address and I'll email out a copy (as a PDF) to you. I'll give everyone a day or so to say whether they want to help, and then I'll send one email, containing the PDF document, to everyone.

In the meantime, I will annotate the document, stating on each page exactly what needs to be done to finish each page off.

As I mentioned before, I suggest that we should finish off one unit at a time. Therefore, once everyone has had a few days to have a good read through the whole PDF document and collect their own thoughts, I will post up the first unit to be worked on. When the first unit is posted up, anyone with any suggestions can post their thoughts on the forum for group discussion. I will then update the master document based on the group's consensus decision.

Once the codex 'as it stands now' is finished, I'm more than willing to add extra units to it, but is like to finish off what is there first, before giving ourselves even more work to do!

Cheers,

GS.

PM sent - one of our number is considering a chaos squat army using necrons rules...

Could we not make a dark version and attach it to the regular squats upside down at the back?

PM'd ya my stunted cousin!

Hopefully the 2 land trains will have been done by the time we get the Ork/Squat game!

Not sure which side to play on now since I'll have a Megagargant and a Land Train!

I can help answer that, lend me the Megagargant and play the Squats yourself, easy!

Right you've had a day - where's the first version of this Ork Squat campaign pack? ;-)

You went for the Golgotha battle with Commissar Yarrick from the old White Dwarves, reet?

Things are hotting up in Ullanor!

Just a quick list to show the imperial players (and a heads up for us Orks) which legions and armies are inbound to the system! Not all of these imperial forces are ticket confirmed though!

Imperial Fists
Thousand Sons
Blood Angels
Blood Angels
Blood Angels
World Eaters
Emperors Children
Space Wolves
Squat Guard
Imperial Army
Imperial Army

So we're half war to a full house with the Imps! The Orks are nearly sold out so if you're green you'd better be keen!

Imperial Fists confirmed - ticket bought!

Beakies rule!

Ferrus Manus looks the nuts!

I hope we see some Iron Hands at Ullanor just to see him in the flesh in a game!

Ferrus does indeed look *expletive deleted* awesome!

Only 7 imperial places left... And 4 Orks!

Don't forget, early ticket purchase makes things much easier for planning the weekend. If you are joining gs please don't leave it until the last week to purchase a ticket as it will effect your opportunity to field more in the apocalypse or be involved as deeply in the narrative!

So is everyone ready then ?
