Gateway to the Eastern Wastes

Posted on 19 December 2006, by Aaron

A Warhammer Fanatasy campaign

January - March 2007 

Once again a dire threat exists to the Warhammer World and all the races are brought into conflict across a multitude of battlefields.

Following Archaon’s defeat during the "Storms of Chaos" a sizeable portion of his surviving forces fled into the east. Chased by contingents from all races the pursuit has stalled upon a momentus discovery. The discovery of a third chaos gate.

Significantly smaller than it’s ancient cousins the gate is located several days march east of the World’s Edge mountains. Built by Archaon’s sorcerors for whatever reasons the pursuit forces have halted at it’s location.

Debate has been heated as to what action should be taken. Old rivalries have come to the fore and skirmishes have already taken place. Open warfare cannot be forestalled for long. To take control of the gate and is to decide its ultimate fate.

Only the limitation of small individual forces at the end of a long supply line has limited the conflict so far. As reinforcements race east, commanders manoeuvre for control of key locations as treaties of convenience are establish and broken on a daily basis.

Format:

The campaign will take place over the course of six fortnightly meetings.

For the first two meetings will feature 500 point border patrol forces with at least three rounds of games.

Meetings three and four will be one on one 2000 point games.

Meetings five and six will be multi-player at upto 2000 points per player.

Factions will be split by race, with victory points scored each game contributing towards a rolling total.

A faction’s victory points can be contributed towards either “Good”, destroy the gate, or “Evil”, maintain the gate.

At the end of each meeting each faction commander decides which way to allocate their faction’s victory points. Whoever scored the most victory points within their faction each meeting becomes the faction commander.

Faction scorings will decide the make-up of the multi-player scenarios for the final two meetings.

"Look to the forums!"

Weekly updates will be posted to the club forums so please check regularly.

Campaign Dates

The campaign will be run over the following six weeks: Tues 9th January, Tues 23rd January, Tues 6th February, Tues 20th February, Tues 6th March & Tues 20th March.
