Oh Man! The Salamanders rules make me want to switch sides, 10 man twin linked flamer squads with soul blaze, pimped terminator squads and Brander priests. They are so cool they need their own Codex!

Dude you’ve been busy and boy has it paid off, the pack look’s great! Nice work.

I can't claim the credit here Nick, much as I'd like to. I sent all the data to chilledmonkeybrains and from my basic and underwhelming pack he created this exemplary Campaign Pack! So thanks to James for his efforts!

Kudos to James then! But Scott in a GW style you do still own the intellectual property rites

It's the first time i've ever had anything considerably close to intellectual so I guess that is also a compliment as well as a statement!

Please don't switch sides... unless your son can play as your Orks! We need a Waaagh! to remember!

There is a rumour that next months white dwarf will feature the rules for flyers that were recently published in the crusade of fire book. If this turns out to be true and if they are any good we may incorporate them into the flyer game for Ullanor. It won't change the mission in any way just add an extra element to it. If they're rubbish rules we won't use them. Its only a rumour though i thought i'd put it out there to see if anybody has any experience with them yet?

The Bl**dy B@#*ards, the main reason I got that book was for the extra flyers rules.

Its only a rumour at the minute!

- Received this truly lovely post on the Tempus Fugitives Forum today... can you tell this dude has his own event to promote at TTN?

Yeah least it isn't just a word document anymore, games workshop might be a bit angry for the usage of there codex borders though, you might need to contact them about that, they dislike their IP being used, did they allow you to use their pictures as well? Gotta make sure that's covered.

It'd be nice if you didn't repeat the picture on the front cover with the one AS SOON AS YOU OPEN IT, try a different one, i'm sure there are others from the same era, plus if you are using GW IP them i'm sure that there are plenty in their books to use.

The blitzkrieg rules forcing people to take 50% seems rather unjust, what if people don't want Rough Riders or Jump Packers? and want pure infantry, they can't play that game?

Also I take is Maunsfeld Games is just Mansfield Games under a new name right, so same place, same dodgey company ect?

Why are you using Stuarts AOTE rules? don't you think this is a bit unfair to then? I know he said you could but I mean, you said yourself you didn't want to piggy back of the success which is the Tempus Fugitives yet you're using there rules and basically holding their event, inviting their members...


- My reply!

Do me a favour! Hows about you don't come on here and belittle and pick on everything I am attempting to do! I'm sure I could go onto your thread and pick holes in your plans etc, but I don't!

Your attitude distinctly comes across as, "lets rip it apart on the forum so that people don't go... as I've got my event to promote, I'll pull his apart!" Stick to promoting your event. Some of your previous comments I took on board and appreciated but you've gone beyond helpful advice to straight up slagging!

I asked Stu, many many months ago if I could use the TF rules to host an AotE weekend for those of use who can't travel to TTN or make the TF schedule! He said he was more than happy for us to do so as the rules are there for everybody to use, that is why they are free to download and view at everybody's leisure. Most of the TF members agreed on a previous thread that it was in no way demeaing to the TF or to Stu for people to use his exemplary work at events, as that is why he goes to those lengths! What you are suggesting is laughable... surely simply by hosting a standard 40k event we all PIGGY BACK Games Workshop!

Do me a favour f*** off back to Armageddon and crawl under the rock you came from!


- Does anybody have any thoughts on this that they'd like to share?

Weapon stops firing;
Cocking handle is fully to the rear, No rounds in the magazine or chamber = Empty magazine, change magazine, bolt release and forward assist.
I think that you have got all your shots off mate and you kept within your ROE well done.

Thanks dude. I'm still raging. I Like the way you put that though.

Sounds like whoever it is, is a total tool. Well forget that animosity is rocking it where everyone is welcome and everyone can enjoy the hobby as it should be enjoyed. What is this TTN anyhow? Thought is was just a new studio for beasts of war!

Its been one of those totally demoralising days... Things had been going far to well for the Ullanor weekend something was bound to slap me in the face!

As a short term measure i've taken the campaign pack down as it is quite plausible that this dude will bubble us to gw. I will make an effort to ask them whether they have issues in this regard. If so we'll get a fresh pack up in the next week or so.

If you didn't get to see James's awesome work i can only apologise... It was so many levels above my efforts it made me weep to behold such awesomsauce! May be one of the reasons the dude has taken a dislike to our efforts as i imagine James's work was also a long way ahead of theirs!

Anyway, please bare with me in these troublesome times.

No problem dude, keep the faith.

Every time some one mentions TTN i increasingly refuse to go.

Scott - just Email GW about the content images and if there will give your permission.

If not just get some fan art on board

I would just ignore TF maybe as sadly it seems to just give negative press to anything outside of TTN

Spoken to their solicitors this morning! He said use fan art as NOBODY is permitted to reproduce gw art whether its gw, black library or forgeworld etc at all! I asked if they made any exceptions... Apparently not, so a certain expansion we all know and love uses it illegally. Funny how the haters over there don't mention that!

Well at least you know now - actually scott PM me any futher questions you may have for them,

If you need help find some let me know, i can spend some time looking

Questions for GW? By the God-Emperor why can't Space Marine Chapters share their STC vehicle plans?

Things have really slowed down hobby wise, being a house husband sounds good on paper but I’m being tag-teamed by the kids. As a result, I can’t get much spare time to indulge, so I still have a tone of work to do on the Bastion and Primeork before I can start painting.

Nick, i work with some welders, want a couple of cages knocking up?......

(I'm I allow to say stuff like that anymore :S )

I still haven't been able to move forward with my orks either! In limbo moving between lincoln, leeds and newcastle every few days... Rubbish!

Well I have been laid up in bed for most of this week so really fallen behind on my painting.
Hopefully I will be able to get some stuff done this weekend

Okay chaps, just a quick update on where we stand right now! With some uneccessary and provoked drama earlier in the week and a few chaps, including myself, struggling to get things going i will endeavour to get the Ullanor Crusade back on the track this weekend!

Our venue is running a large tournament this weekend. When they recover from one of their largest annual events we will get tickets on sale next week!

Bitz box will be spomsoring our conversion competition again! Revised rules will allow for 60mm based miniatures to enter too... Primorks and Primarchs are especially welcome! Whats more, they've allowed me access to their blog -the fools, the crazy crazy fools- so i'll be able to reach out to their customers on a more regular basis!

Nukearts are still onboard and will be once again producing an excellent prize for the painting competition! They're pretty much on board everythin that Animosity are hoping to produce and i'd like to help them by putting their name out there even more, their generosity and abilities deserve recognition!

I will endeavour to co-ordinate with voxnetradio over some podcast coverage of Ullanor! The guys are going to try to attend and join the fun so if anybody would like to volunteer to help with the coverage if they make it that would be sweet, it won't be arduous, just soundbite things!

I'm going to start putting my stompa together this week too, yay!

I have to say boys you are all well under way with preparations for the next (probably awesome) Animosity event!

I won't be attending this one as I have my hands full with our own campaign, check the blog, which is marching along at quite a pace now and people are battling away for the honor of best player and winning faction.

Inspired by Discordia so thanks Scott!

I will keep watching and may be interested in something a bit more non heresey.

July will return the Animosity action to the 41st millennium kantor... And a return for the crimson fists i hope!

Hope organising your campaign doesn't stress you out too much, it gets pretty hairy sometimes... Maybe thats just me?

Well here are a few work in progress shots of my blitzkrieg army

"orks orks orks orks, orks orks orks!"

Hey dudes!

I return with some exciting news. As the second event approaches, and I figure out a way to get over and put one over on those people that feel it is necessary to belittle the attempts of others when they are working towards increasing the level of enjoyment we all take from the hobby, I have taken steps!

Initially, whilst the campaign pack in a wip state will be returned to us as soon as possible, eventually it will be a thing of customised, and exclusive beauty... how so?

I have been in discussion with a well known artist from the deviant art site. Well known because his work, whilst as far removed from the stylistic imagery of Warhammer 40k, is easily recognisable and distinctly 40k in its very own niche! The support of this artist will help us to create a Campaign Pack unlike any other and give the Campaign Packs created by Animosity, their own style... his actually.

aerion-the-faithful's work will be instantly recognised by anybody who has spent more than five minutes on the internet searching for anything related to 40k. I think it is a great opportunity for us to work with him, and along with NukeArts and BitzBox we have some awesome contributing support.

Now comes the interesting bit. aerion-the-faithful will be completing 6 images for each pack. Of the six image there will be one full colour front cover and six black and white for the interior. In order to secure his services these commission pieces can be secured by you, if you so wish. Meaning that, if you want to own the 10" x 7" original canvas of the image you can. How do you do this? First, it will cost £30 for one of commissions. This should include postage and all being well I will give you the piece at the next event. If enough people are interested we will go forward with this. Should we be left with an image or two that are unaccounted for they will be raffled at the event.

If you are interested in owning the original print, you can have a say in what it contains, to a point. Basically, this time around as the event is pre-heresy and based upon Ullanor, we must have a theme. When the time comes for this offer for the July campaign pack we will be open to many more 40k races and themes. What does this mean? It means if you would like to own a picture that features a stompa you can have a picture with a stompa. If you want a particular Marine chapter, you can have a particular Marine chapter. You tell me what you want, I pass it on to our friend aerion and his artistic interpretation takes the piece forward.

This opportunity will be repeated a few months before each event and the finances all go to creating a great campaign pack. I hope this opportunity excites you guys as much as it does me!

This time around the opportunity is limited as a few pieces have been secured already. Our front cover has been determined, and the first Marine slot has been secured. The remaining slots are available on a first come first served basis should you be interested. I hope so.

PM me if you are and I will get back to you about what you wish to be incoporated as quickly as I can. It is worht bearing in mind that aerion needs details tomorrow, so it is vitally important if you want to get on board that you can PM me as soon as you can. Should there be slots remaining tomorrow I will dictate the subject matter and hope for the best at raffle!

Thanks for taking the time to digest this chaps! I hope it is of interest. The available pieces for input are below as well as a number of selected images from aerion-the-faithful's gallery.

- A Pre-Heresy Space Marine Image RESERVED Sar Mikael

Hey you guys!

Has been ages since I have been on here, how bad is that!?

I see the next event seems to be coming along nicely. I am trying to get the VoxNet team to come along too and give our support.... Ralph is even busy building an Ork army

Scott man, don't let the haters get to you, just remember their idiots and don't know any better, you should feel sorry for them and their lack of ability to be helpful and actually have an adult conversation. Even Mr T has agreed on this cause as we all know he "pity the fool"

Keep your focus and remember your are creating and building something you and all who join should be proud of... Also stop making me want to spend money!!! ;-)

If you want to grab something now is the time to come forward! There is limited time before aerion goes to work on the pieces. He has already started on the cover! I'll get some WIP up as soon as they're in!

I'm so excited by this I might just wet myself. These pics are going to look freakin ace in the campaign pack, make it look professional too.
