So my total this week is
3pts - W/L
1pt - stronghold
7pts - warlord
1pt - Manufactorum

Hey Guys,
I played Alejandro's Eldar and won. I got 2 points and Alejandro got 1.

I also Played Bob's Tyranids and won. Bob was my sworn enemy for the week. Bob got one 1 for the loss. I got 7 points 2 points for playing and winning and +5 for fighting a sworn enemy.


I thought I was able to take tiles for the win until my game against steve on Sat. night, I had taken a tile from Bob on the very outer edge of the board. This tile needs to go back to Bob,

All four of my games have been great.

Played chuck and won using stronghold. I took his power station.
Total week 4
+2 - win against Chuck
+2 - win against Gil
+1 - stronghold
+1 - Manufactorum(end of turn)
+9 - warlord(end of turn)
+6 - tiles (end of turn)
21 - total(end of turn)

Joe here, I played Sean and his Eldar Army and tied the game but won in kill points(I FINALLY WON!)

I got 1 point for playing, 1 point for winning and my Warlord Trait gives me the ability to gain 5 more points if my Faction is in the lead.

Sean here-i played joe and lost-1 point for playing and 5 points from my warlord trait

I played Nicks Tau and Lost i earned 1 point for playing and we already gave Nick one of my tiles.

For week 4 i played a game vs gil
I won

We used no special rules

my grand warlord trait is master of the crusade giving me +5 for holding the spaceport and +2 for holding a bastion

I appropriate all my points to the crusade of fire

Chuck here, played Steve and lost, farewell power station. 1 point for playing and one point for playing stronghold

I'm looking to get a game Friday and sat for the campaign. Pm me if you are interested in getting a game.
Michael

Mike ill be at there on friday and saturday if you cant find a game, and if anyone else wants a game ill most likely be bringing my brother alejandro(eldar).

I received a solid whooping from mikes guard, but we both agreed that there would be no tiles involved, so mike gets +2 and i get 1 for playing. If not taking tiles is not allowed then mike gets a tile.

but we both agreed that there would be no tiles involved, so mike gets +2 and i get 1 for playing. If not taking tiles is not allowed then mike gets a tile.

If you both agree, that's cool.

I'm headed down Sunday if anyone needs a game.

Spreadsheet for the first three weeks & second spreadsheet for the first four weeks attached. Please check my math & post how many points you've scored for tiles.

L vs Eric +1 on Tuesday
L vs SteveB +1 on Sunday
tiles +3

I beat Chuck's Imperial Guard we agreed no tiles would be taken, I got 2pts for winning another 5pts for my "Great Hunter" trait and chuck got 1pt for playing as he did not kill quite enough for blood of martyrs.

I might have a work thing tomorrow night & not be able to make it down to the Whiz. I have the second planet's map in my trunk though so that kind of jams up people on that planet- sorry. Hopefully people have an idea of how many tiles they have this week without seeing the map.

Just got an email from the bits store I ordered more tiles from- they were lost in the mail. Sorry guys on second planet; we need to wait awhile longer as they resend.

I was eliminated by Adam last week. His grand warlord trait took my last two tiles. Thanks for the fun matches, guys!

MikeX we can have you floating above the planet on a battleship like we did for ChrisB for week 1 if you want.

Played nick R and won but took no tiles.
2 pts win
10 pts warlord + Manufactorum
6 pts tiles
Total 18 pts

I played Eric/Omnis Arcanum and lost. Eric Captured my tile. I earned one point for playing and one point for tile for turn 5 so far.

Nah. I'm good. Thanks though.

I played against Bob and his Tyranids and lost.
He took a tile and 2 points for winning. I am unsure of his Warlord trait

I received 1 point for playing
I have 2 tiles left
and my trait gives me 5 points if my faction is in the lead...

Here are my totals so far

Week 3 (sworn enemy Bob Tyranids)
5 Tiles (one tile was earned from fighting Nicks Tau)
7 points for playing Bobs bugs and winning
2 points for playing Nick
2 points for playing Alejandro's eldar
2 points for playing Steve's eldar

Week 4 (sworn enemy Steve)
5 tiles
2 points for playing Isaiah's Spacewolves
1 point for warlord

Week 5 (so far)(sworn enemy Adam's dark eldar)
6 tiles (One for playing Adam on tuesday the 6th. The tiles we played for were none nondescript, so next week we can figure it out.)
7 points for playing Adam's dark eldar (sworn enemy)

Total 39 points. I am not sure if i will be able to get another game this week because I will be demoing zombicide and rivet wars at Tas-con on sat.

Chuck here, won against Sean's Eldar and took a tile. 2 points for winning and 5 points for blood of the martyrs

For week 5 i played a game vs sam
I won

We used no special rules

my grand warlord trait is master of the crusade giving me +5 for holding the spaceport and +2 for holding a bastion

I appropriate all my points to the crusade of fire

NickR, Chuck, Eric with back turned, SteveB, SamL

Nick & Bob

Sean, MikeX,DaveB, ChrisB, Adam leaning over table, Joe

VenVulkan Thanks for organizing your points- I could just cut & paste straight into the spreadsheet. I think Sworn Enemy means your sworn enemy is the same person all campaign.



CAMPAIGN JUNE & JULY PHASE 2 IMPROVEMENTS

Phase 2 is where we all remove all tokens from maps & begin the entire campaign from scratch in order to use what we've learned so far & have moar phen!

I've been thinking of improving the campaign for the next phase beginning in June. Chris was originally planning on updating the map using photo bucket (see blue & yellow map), but running the store is making him busy enough. I ordered more tiles for a second map, but they were lost in the mail so that jammed us up too. The Grand Warlord traits are neat, but require more communication than is feasible with life's interruptions.

Here are some solutions:
Hopefully the new set of tiles will arrive soon & I will get the second planet done. I also got a hole puncher that makes paper circles the same size as a model's base so that we can write our names on the paper & it is visible on the map in between the magnet & token. I'm going to divide the big planet map into two or more smaller planets so that when I take pictures of the map (with the name tags & tokens) we can read them easily & view the maps each week in this thread. I plan on making the planets be the same as in the Crusade of Fire book. I'd also like to reward players who buy their own copy of the book with campaign points-20 points?. I have some extra copies that I got on eBay for $20, but I've since seen them on eBay for cheaper.



1. As for the Grand Warlord traits, there are some that are lousy. I think we should change Selfless Sacrifice because it is very difficult to track if people don't play each week or players of the same faction play each other & both earn points. What do you think?

2. Also, I like SteveB's idea of each player's points going towards both the faction & the individual, but what do we do if players on the same faction play each other?

3. What about increasing points for winning or losing a game? When I lose a game for 1 point, but my warlord trait gives me +5 for something random, it feels wrong.

4. How to deal with challengers losing a game- who gets a tile & which tile is it?

5. What dates are good for the second phase? I'm busy June 24th. Would folks want to wait until July 1st to begin? Is Tuesday night the best night for that first week's tile deployment or should we have some planets open for the first Tuesday night deployment & different planets for the Sunday players?

6. How many map tiles should each player begin with? We need to have open spaces so that some Grand Warlord traits actually work.

Scores Spreadsheet as of Saturday May 10th:

Hey Gil I'll buy a book off you.

I think we should figure out different warlord traits for sure. Some are so much better than other it stinks.

I definately agree about the changing of points for a win/loss. I'm thinking something like 5 win, 2 loss. As you said I think the points should go to both the campaign or the people. Unless we just want to make it prizes for the top 2 regardless of race then split the rest for the people below that to a point. But that sort of feels like it's defeating the team aspect so idk.

We can make a pool of 12 warlord traits that are 2-3 points per game max. Like objectives almost, accomplish your trait get the points. Eliminating the need to track whose ahead or other jazz like that.

I won 2 games this week one against alejandro's eldar
- 2 points for winning.
-5 points for warlord trait.

Another against bob's eldar
- 2 points for playing.
-5 point for warlord trait.
