I couldn't find the other thread about the 40k campaign so I posted a new one.

It's always nice to see stuff about a rumored product that is likely to have a large impact on our community via some sort of league.

If it's released in July, a realistic start date is probably late September / October for a league (fall instead of summer)...  I'm sure Derek is going to want a SWEET looking map for something like this.  As we all know, that takes lots and lots of time.  I was half expecting the thing to just be a bunch of planets, but it seems like it will be a massive fight over just one.  Carnage... Mmmmm... :)

Even I can't wait to see what kind of tweaks they make to this... It should be a lot of fun.

That's pretty awful looking. I like the concept but....

Too grimdark for you?

Er no, too crappy looking.. Sorry I wasn't clear before.



I figured that's what you meant.  I wonder if it's just a bad paint job.  I wasn't too worried about the map in the WHFB one, I was more excited about the rules and such.

Re: Something this summer...

I don't know many of the details and nothing is concrete but there is likely to be a 40k 1v1 event sometime towards the end of July.  We are thinking maybe 1500 points.

This event is still in the "talking about it" phase but I figured the heads up might be nice.
