  1. Hello there ! Have you ever heard of what a 40k painting campaign is ? Sure ? The truth is it’s something pretty simple : it consists in painting an army in a defined period of time. This time is organized in multiple “sessions” within which each and every member set themselves to paint one or a few units, following a precise time schedule and army list. Or, at least, this is how it is supposed to be… Add to this some fluff, one or two drops of craziness, four deeply-involved fan communities. Will you take part in the battle for Gilgamesh ? What are the differences between Gilgamesh and other long-term painting campaigns ? First and foremost, let’s say that the Gilgamesh forum has a single purpose: serving as a common platform to host the Gilgamesh painting campaign. Then, let’s remind ourselves Gilgamesh isn’t truly a competition : its only real goal is to create new reasons to paint your army. Also, note that nobody is forced to participate to each session (as long as he explicitly told he was absent before). Winning a session with the faction you chose is a collective effort. Gilgamesh doesn’t care about what the models you want to paint would do on the tabletop. Thus, painting the “ultimate-death- doom-combo- armylist” won’t actually have any impact on the session’s issue. Paint what you like ! Only the lust for a fully-painted army is relevant ! Tactically-wise, the different sectors of the map sometimes restrict what units you can place on Gilgamesh’s battlefield. This means you have to communicate your battle plans with your captain before deploying your units. To make it short, what determines victory is both the number of points a faction has deployed, but also the number of sectors it controls. This system thus rewards risk-takers in their offensives, thus helping to balance the raw power differences between factions. On Gilgamesh, there is no individual progress topic, the core system being about sector control rather than the sheer amount of points you can paint during a session. If you wish to have your own personal topic, you can do it in your faction’s sub-forum. On Gilgamesh, brushes are your only reliable weapon ! Begun Gilgamesh war has ! After more than three years of rough fighting in Gilgamesh’s major Hive’s districts, the battle has developed to reach a planetary onslaught, with 37 (thirty-seven !) different combat zones representing diverse battlegrounds, be they natural or not, each coming with their own special deployment rules, and sometimes offering important tactical advantages to their controllers. Gilgamesh being deeply set-up in the 40k lore, but also having its own specificities, here’s a list of the different factions fighting for supremacy : - Chaos : Chaos Space Marines, Daemons, Imperial Guard Renegates Dark Mechanicum and Renegade Imperial Knights. - Angels of Death : Dark Angels & Blood Angels, coming along with some detachments from the Imperial Guard, Mechanicum and Imperial Knights. - Aeldari : be they from the Craftworlds or the Dark City of Commoragh. - Necrons : and rebellious Mechanicum allies. - The Inquisitorial Crusade : a 100% new faction representing the more puritan aspects of the Imperium, including the Ordos of the Holy Inquisition, forces from the Ministorum, Death Watch, Grey Knights, Black Templars, Sisters of Silence, Adeptus Custodes, Imperial Guard, Imperial Knights and the Mechanicum. Details about factions’compositions can be found in Gilgamesh’s Rules. As the Dark Millenium’s story unfolds, it is possible (and very likely) that every faction will continue to change over time. So, stay tuned ! The Gilgamesh Campaign will be divided in 16 sessions. Each session will last 2 months. The Summer and Winter sessions will last 3 months each. The schedule for Episode 5 is described hereinafter: Session 17 : July / August 2017 Session 18 : September / October 2017 Session 19 : November 2017 / January 2018 Session 20 : February / March 2018 Session 21 : April / May 2018 Session 22 : June / August 2018 Keep in mind, those plannings might be reviewed according to specific constraints or events. Now let’s get to the interesting part of this presentation : ENLIST NOW ! As Captain of the « Inquisitorial Crusade », I appeal to your Honour and your Sense of Duty ! We’re actively looking for young motivated commanders that share our goal of Imperial Supremacy over this planet ! The Crusade regroups all forces of the Imperium, with the exception of Space Marine Forces (only the revered Black Templars can take part in the Holy Inquisitorial Crusade). Here’s a list of what you can paint within our faction : We need you to join the Crusade and spread the Lex Imperialis all over Gilgamesh’s surface. Let your hardened boots and our combined artillery barrages be the bane of your foes, and may the fires of war engulf your mighty strikes ! Will you honour your God-Emperor, or will you fall to the dirty lies of heretics, mutants and xenos ? Participating is easy : you only need tu register on the Gilgamesh forum and take some pictures of your undercoated (or even uncovered) miniatures with the current session’s password. Or, if you don't want to come, you can just post thoses pictures in this topic with the informations about the unit and i will do the job ! The Future of Gilgamesh is in your hands ! The Crusade calls for aid ! Will you answer ? (Come to the Crusade, we have cookies)
  2. THE FATE OF GILGAMESH An ETL V-linked campaign http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y50/Masteravoghai/Gilgamesh/image.jpeg What is Gilgamesh? Gilgamesh is a long term painting event, themed around a Chaos attack on an Imperial hive city. We are currently playing the 3rd episode. Episode 1 : The hive city suffered a vicious assault by the Ruinous Powers. As so often happens in this situation, the invaders quickly began to fight amongst themselves to decide whose Patron would rule this newly conquered world. Episode 2 : The Dark Angels manage to deploy to the devastated surface, attracted by rumours of their Fallen brothers present on this planet. The fight was intense, as the Unforgiven found that many of the surviving PDF regiments had also been corrupted by Chaos. Nevertheless, they managed to secure many sectors allowing reinforcements to arrive. Episode 3 : Unexpectedly, the first reinforcements to arrive were the mysterious Eldar. A gathering of Craftworlds and Dark Eldar emerge through a webway portal once buried deep beneath the planet's surface, but now revealed as a result of the brutal surface bombardment. This portal and numerous others, each one long hidden in the haunted depths of the hive city, appears to be of such strategic importance that it has brought both the Eldar and their dark kin together to fight for their common goals. Whilst the forces of Chaos continue to expand like an plague across the various sectors, the Dark Angels managed to secure a foothold in the lower levels of the hive. The Eldar, however, have managed to assume control of the upper Spires. The call for support was finally heard and the Ninth Legion have answered, reforming the ancient alliance of the Angels of Death. The discovery of ancient xenos technology has also drawn the interest of the adepts of Mars... But the deviant tech priests of the Dark Mechanicus are also desperate to obtain these precious artifacts. And this is where we currently are... The ultimate act of episode 3! After a skirmish-sized opposition, we run apocalypse by calling our allies from the B&C forum.... Do you want to take part in this story and help decide of the fate of Gilgamesh? How does it works? Gilgamesh is a painting event that works mostly like the ETL. You have to paint models during a period of time, and if you succeed, you add the value of the models to your team's pool of points. The difference are as follow : - your initial pic must be taken either with the session password, either with the clock of the forum to proove that you play with unpainted models - your base must be done. Wether it's simple painted sand or resin work, it has to be ready for battle. - the most important : you pledge your models on sectors which represent the different sectors of the hive city. Those sectors have limitation that allow/prevent some type of models to be pledge on them. Of course some models can be allowed on several sectors hence giving strategical options to the different factions. On june 1st, the session's password will be revealed Make a post indicating Faction Unit Wargear Must be clearly represented Point value Sector of your choice Pic of the unpainted/undercoated models with the password INVICTUS Example : The post will be implented by your servitor and his chaotic collegue in the battle zone (provided it is a valid pledge). You can follow the battle here : http://gilgamesh3.forumactif.org/f111-zone-de-guerre-episode-3 You can also register here : http://gilgamesh3.forumactif.org and participate to gilgamesh' fate by posting your pledges yourself. This latest solution can also be a possibility for those willing to participate to Gilgamesh with a different faction (for example : you paint Chaos for ETL but you also have eldar waiting to be painted : go register on Gilgamesh)
