Initial Organization Thread
« on: March 06, 2016, 06:35:58 pm »
This topic is intended to get the ball rolling on a proposed BFG campaign. Here is the rundown:

Rules: BFG Campaign Rules

Method Of Play: Online using Vassal, though if there are two or more participants who are local to each other, they can play their games "IRL" as well.

Eligibility: This campaign is open to members of MBS. Since the forums will be the main method of reporting results and tracking fleet status, participants will need to be members of the forums to post.

Timeframe: We are looking to close the organizing period by 1 April, and start playing games for the campaign after that.  The plan right now is to play the campaign to completion, so it will probably last through the summer.

List of Players
Player(and their fleet)

  • Ruckdog (Imperial Navy)
  • Ulric the Grey (Chaos, Tzeentch)
  • dalekunz (Harlequins (Dark Eldar Proxy))
  • Andrewchristlieb (Tau)
  • Warhawk (Orks)
  • ElBrak (Orks)

If you are interested in joining in, respond below with what fleet you plan on using! Also feel free to ask any questions or make suggestions below as well.

Ok I will throw a post on. I am going to play as well. Though right now tentatively as a Power of Chaos Tzeentch fleet. As for the rest of the campaign I look forward to what comes up and the fleets being played.

I need to reread the rules, but likely for Eldar.

OK! I've updated the first post. I think Ulric and I running IN vs Chaos gives a solid foundation for the rest of the campaign. I'm not sure what faction Andrew will be running.

Im still undecided on fleet, but probably IN or Tau.

I don't make the rules, I just think them up and write them down.

Whatever you prefer! If you run IN too, I think we will want to make and agreement such that we don't gang up on Ulric too much  ;D

Yeah that was kinda my thinking. Uf a few more hop on and want to run Chaos I'll do Imperial, but otherwise I'll run Tau for the variety.

If we have two IN players, and Chaos needs help, I can gladly switch to Dark Eldar (if there's a viable fleet list) or Slaaneshi Chaos (Emperor's Children). It's been a LONG while since the Flesh-Ship Lollipop has tantalized the space-ways. ;-)

Dale your Scaring the Poor children. Please think of the children. Which is also why GW got rid of Slaanesh in Age of sigmar. Not very family friendly faction.

Now in Slaanesh's defense there are a lot of families that wouldn't be here without em... ;)

Straight Chaos/Imperial might be simplier for a start though, especially with hidden pirate bases and all that without an impartial moderator.

I am thinking of the children...the Emperor's Children!

See, without the Dark Prince(ess?) the options are so ... mundane. Khorne is all murder-death-kill, blah blah blah, about as fun as a broken record. You've already got Tzeentch covered. And even if you'd tolerate the Lord of Decay and Despair's minions, I just don't truck with that sort for real-life reasons. So the fun-party, 50 Shades of Naughty, Spring-Breakers-Eternal faction it is!!!

I mean, who doesn't look forward to being rammed amid-ships by the cruiser "Sweet Transvestite" ? ;-)

Only you dale. Only you would name a ship that and claim to be straight. Anyway brother, if you want Chaos thats cool, I recommend that you DL the Powers of Chaos pdf, that has the rules for the Theme fleets.

'Yes Lord, may I introduce Captain KILLFRENZY."
"Is that his name or his ship?"
"Both it seems, milord Abaddon. He ..uh...says that a lot. It makes fleet coordination rather difficult"
"KILLFRENZY. KILLFRENZY. KILLFRENZY. KILLFRENZY!!!"
<Abaddon facepalms> "Yes, yes Captain... you'll get plenty. Dismissed"
<To his aide> "Place our expressive Captain Killfrenzy right out in front of the Planetkiller. Extra ablative armor is always welcome."

Rocky Horror is a goldmine for Slaaneshi quotes and names ;-)
