I think Lt Soundwave and BloodAngels Brother are handling the fluff and article stuff amongst everything else (if I'm wrong then sorry guys), you should PM one of them with it. And we'll be getting started soon, I just passed possibly the final draft of the players packet to some of the other organizers (couldn't remember all their emails...if I missed you then PM me guys) and depending on how they receive that, it could be distributed quite soon.

Edit: Holy ninjas...4 posts in the time it took me to type this

We are kinda on the ball for this Brother lol

I sent the packet to BAB motyak, I dont have the email for the others, I know you got myself red and anvil. Red is reading through it now.

As far as the fluff goes I started gathering it awhile ago but once BAB volunteered I delegated it to him and he has graciously taken up the task of formatting and placing every ones army fluff in the article we set up here on dakka PM either of us and it will get to where it needs to go.

Finished your packet Motyak and it looks great, are we going to turn it into a pdf or keep it in its current format?

Edit: Also you guys can just call me SW or sound

When will the campaign packets be available?

Think I should put it in The OP??

The fluff section for the tau needs slight editing, a name and a perspective shift is pretty much it. Spellcheck looks good and the entire thing looks pretty well polished up to me. Only remaning question I have is if we want to turn it into a PDF for ease of viewing ( also pdfs are fancy)



Edit: Disregard fluff comment It was a formatting error on my end.

all green here I say format to PDF and upload to general public.

Edit2: Anyone know much about the article code here on dakka? I cant seem to get the gif image X made to display properly.

It says it will be available soon but is there a less generic term or am I a little too anxious.

Wow 9300 Veiws

And I'll get round to doing a PDF

Motyak is gonna set up a seperate thread for the packet, when either of ya get it done make sure there is a link to that thread from your op post red I'll chuck one in the article as well.

@dirt: No worries bud, everyones patience will pay off, getting something like this off the ground isnt easy but we are committed to making it rewarding for everyone who participates.

Yup, it'll get its own separate thread for questions specifically related to it, and I'll post a kind of 'faq' in the OP as time goes on and you guys pick up on errors (which will happen. Everyone has faqs)

I'm just double checking how it looks now


Automatically Appended Next Post:
And....ITS UP!

Looks great

Maybe it's how early it is but, where is it "up?"

I am sure I am not the only one who like a link

Just a few threads down on this subforum. There will be a link in the OP when red updates it.

179 ARMIES!!!

If i can still join

To the army of ORDER

A Tau cadre under the lead of Shas'O admiral9 (Me)

You can get OTHER if you want

Is OTHER forced or not?

Well the Tau fluff makes you detrementel to the Imperial War effort

Tau can only participate as 'other' rather than 'order'.

Ok then I'll register under other

And also after recounting my troops it seems i am above 1000. I dont have a definitive list as i recently bought additions but its something around 1200-1300 now.

Thanks mate. And above 1000 as in points? The points aren't too important in terms of signing your army up, although the size of battle will affect the effect of your battles.

As Daemons do I more or less just pop up where ever more chaos forces are already fighting?

Yeah i mean above 1000 in points.

I'd say that you deploy as per normal, think of it as cult activity on that planet being enough to break the barrier between worlds, and you would be bound by the same travel time as the other armies, but think of that instead as the time it takes to dissapear from this plane of reality and be resummoned elsewhere.

Just wondering who is gonna be the battle organizer in the netherlands? As i don't really know who else is participating in this area.

Well il be sending my full fluff write up at some point in the weekend. My traitors are sailing the warp in freshly stolen imperial navy light cruiser. After its capture the renegades aptly named it "The Reaver" In its cavernous bellies sit thousands of Herisian soldiers thought lost to the warp a decade ago. Well trained and well equipped they wait patiently for their time to spill imperial blood.
