The greater good shall prevail!

Playful rivalry aside, I have a question to ask you all.

How do you think we might spread word further? I've messaged a large chunk of the forums and the Kind dakka admins put the thread on the first page for a day.

Yet I feel there must be more we can do yes? If you have an idea please post it up.

Every person who joins our event helps make it that much more exciting, that much more memorable and that much more inclusive of an outstanding community!

Excellent suggestion! Ok, subset of this suggestion then.


Introducing the all new DDWWC Press Corps!

I am looking for volunteers to venture out into the dangerous and exotic realm of "S O C I A L M E D I A" to help spread the word amongst many sites.

If you use "The facebook" "The twitter" or similar outlets and are interested in throwing your hat into the ring shoot me a PM and we can coordinate.

They should somehow tie in this campaign (or even a future campaign) with the promotional they're doing with minniwargamming and the like. Not sure how it'd work, but if prizes were involved, it'd be pretty epic.

While I agree that would be neat, I do think it would entail a massive amount of additional work on admins side of things.

Yak mentioned something along these lines when I inquired about helping to spread the word about the event.

Certainly not against it but i bet the event going on now is going to keep their plates full for awhile.

Maybe see if you can get hold of some hobby shops or other nerd centrals in your towns and see if you can post up fliers about the campaign. I'm sure that would help attract the kinds of people we are looking for.

So, with fluff, do you want us to submit our fluff for our armies to you? I've held off doing that because I felt that you would be deluged in all the fanfiction that would then be pouring your way, but if you want to open those floodgates I am more than willing to send in my as well as several of my friends' fluff built around their army...

Actually go right ahead, all of you feel free to PM your armies fluff if you have some. I'll sort it by army so when I go to make an article for the event It will be much more entertaining to read.

I think that would add an extra bit of fun to the campaign

Hey all,

Thats right I'm back. I leave for a week and the amount of armies doubles, are you guys trying to tell me something??

This is good, very goog.

goog? wow, I made up a new word.
anywho This is me, I'm back on board



in Inquisitor, a Space Marine can take a krak grenade, pull out the pin, eat the grenade, throw the pin, and the thrown pin will actually kill a normal man, whereas the Space Marine won't even have indigestion. This has actually happened in a game. Hell, a marine can throw his bolt shells and do more damage than by shooting his boltgun

typing on my laptop!.

Quick question, does the fluff we have, have to relate to the Campaign or do you just want a bit of basic background fluff?

- Kabal of the Bleeding Soul 1500 pts(wip)

- Silver Knights space marine chapter. Around 3500 to 4000 pts(wip)

- Word Bearers 2500 pts (on hold)

- Sky Dogs imperial guard regiment. 2000 pts.

‎"Because we couldn’t be trusted. The Emperor needed a weapon that would never obey its own desires before those of the Imperium. He needed a weapon that would never bite the hand that feeds. The World Eaters were not that weapon. We’ve all drawn blades purely for the sake of shedding blood, and we’ve all felt the exultation of winning a war that never even needed to happen. We are not the tame, reliable pets that the Emperor wanted. The Wolves obey, when we would not. The Wolves can be trusted, when we never could. They have a discipline we lack, because their passions are not aflame with the Butcher’s Nails buzzing in the back of their skulls. The Wolves will always come to heel when called. In that regard, it is a mystery why they name themselves wolves. They are tame, collared by the Emperor, obeying his every whim. But a wolf doesn’t behave that way. Only a dog does. That is why we are the Eaters of Worlds, and the War Hounds no longer."
