Me and my friends are running a friendly campaign at the minute. We've decided that every battle we win grants a bonus ability or extra points towards a final game; which will be Clash of Heroes so that anyone can win regardless. However I'am a bit stumped for ideas since we were meant to have finished up but the Necron player bought some new stuff and we decided to add an extra few games on.

The armies we've got are

Tyranids

Chaos Space Marines

Dark Eldar

Necrons



BTW I've already done the bombardment cannon of death, taken by the Necrons.

For Chaos winning battles should result in the favour of the Dark Gods, meaning extra daemonic gifts/bonuses for your characters I would think. Something like the Eye of the Gods for warriors of chaos.

And if Tyranids win, they could evolve, meaning they get extra stuff. What doesn't kill you makes you stronger.

Dark Eldar can gain bonuses by buying various enhancements, wargear or combat drugs with captured loot and slaves taken from their victories.

If orks win by a sufficiently large margin, they should be able to loot a vehicle from the army they defeated. If it's against 'Nids, they could get more boyz due to a surplus of biomass in the environment (from all the dead Tyranids) or loot chitin plates and make 'Ard Boyz with it.

I predict the DE will do a significant amount of damage to those lists so I wouldnt make their special items to OP as they will be tough battles to begin with. Armour Plating for Raiders for an 11 AV all around would be nice as they can weld plates on it from the wreckage of every destroyed vehicle.

TBH the Dark Eldar player at the minute has been creamed every time and hasn't won a single battle. Its mainly because he only has one raider and a single ravager. With the rest of his army on foot its usually blasted off the table by nec or Iron warriors. Whist my stealer/Trygon army just makes good use of their deployment rules to deny him most of his shooting. He can do damage (killed my bloody Trygon ) with poison and lance weapons but I'am usually killing his army a lot faster. Its also his first army so both those factors haven't been very forgiving; that said I don't think it really matters that its his first army. His tactics are no more advanced than any other player there.

Since he hasn't won any battles I'll probably just be continuing the advantage he could have gotten earlier where his whole army starts with one extra pain token.
