Viray Posted October 18, 2010 Share Posted October 18, 2010 The bases look fantastic; I'm definitely gonna steal the idea. Really though, I can't wait to see the entire project finished (I'm particularly curious as to how the cherubs will turn out).

Brother Argos Posted October 20, 2010 Author Share Posted October 20, 2010 Gillyfish and I are setting up a small test campaign ... for those interested here is the map: - A high resolution version can be found here: - Hi Res Map Its a simple Chaos vs Imperial campaign with the following rules changes. Escorts must make up 33% of the fleet, so in our campaign 660pts out of 2000. To counter the quick death of Escorts due to Assault / hit and run tactics we are following the rules suggested over in the rules discussion forum of changing the hit chance to 4+ instead of 2+ as well as allowing a Brace for Impact against the hit (as per FAQ 2007). These changes should go a long way towards making Escorts viable again and part of the campaign will be to test this, as well as using more "Historically" realistic fleets. Where possible the new FAQ 2010 will be used for the games and campaign. Our first game scheduled for Thursday will be a "Fleet Engagement" at Passepatout with 1000pts of fleet each. We are using Blue book fleets with the Torpedo Variants, Torpedo Bombers and Mine layers special rules from the Armada book. Should be FUN!

Brother Argos Posted October 22, 2010 Author Share Posted October 22, 2010 This log will be going dark for a week and a half as I will be involved in some real life stuff. Â Unlike my steel legion log, this one will be returned too when I am finished!

Techmarine Data007 Posted October 23, 2010 Share Posted October 23, 2010 I'm glad someone else is getting back into BFG, and I'm also glad that there is news of a set of updates for the game as well. This thread pleases me greatly. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/210761-bfg-battle-fleet-maelstrom/page/5/#findComment-2543114 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inquisitor =D= Posted December 11, 2010 Share Posted December 11, 2010 Aargh!! You people make me jealous. ;) Â I've been wanting to play for some time but alas... Alaska has no player base for this game... Â Excellent models btw, the amount of effort you put into every one of them is amiable. I may one day have to get you to make me a set. :D Â =]D[= Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/210761-bfg-battle-fleet-maelstrom/page/5/#findComment-2586860 Share on other sites More sharing options...
