Summer Campaign - Fate of Konor

[CaptainMarsh]

I work at a FLGS who is listed as a place to register. We still haven't been told how to do so. I'll be going in later, any information I can bring with me?

The funny thing is that GW doesn't even try to hide how the things are rigged in the imperial's favour. Oh well. I suppose the 13th Black Crusade campaign shocked them. Sucks that having the campaign rigged seems to be the only way for imperials to win.

 

Although I don't disagree with you, this is going on for 6 weeks. There are definitely Chaos releases planned within that timeframe which will automatically boost their numbers as buying models counts as points toward that faction.

 

But the Imperium will still win. /s

 

If Chaos ever had a time to really show their dedication, this would be the time. GW has certainly put the effort into showing us in real time what the stats are at any given time.

But the Imperium will still win. Just like Hillary was sure to win the US Presidency.

How do you know? So far everything points towards the next bigger chaos release being Death Guard which would be more at the end of the whole campaign....which fits my claim that the whole campaign is just to promote/introduce the new Death Guard while selling shiny new Primaris. ^^

Chaos is getting absolutely demolished at Quintus Gate.

 

Jeez, what do the Americans/Canadians have against the Dark Gods?

I think many of us have full time jobs and won't be getting our games in until the weekend...patience, brother.

[Cryptix]

Fun fact, it told me my nearest store was in Wisconsin...Anyone wanna help me out? My locations on the sideboard.

Dunno about your specific case, but you have to search for your hometown in the searchbox to find the nearest store. The default setting of the map just shows any random shops in your country (or shops near your providers access point in your country...who knows).

Don't let the Cicatrix Maledictum lead you astray...

This. My FLGS does 40K nights on Saturdays, so that's all we really have. Might be able to get in other times, but have a job kinda puts a cramp in that.

Depending on where in Simi Valley you live.

 

GW store in Thousand Oaks and one in Winnetka.  Both are about a 30 min drive from you.

 

Also Game Ogre is in Oak Park.  That's about 45mins

 

Game Empire is in Pasadena.  About 45 mins

 

Green Tower Games is in Santa Clarita.  About 35 mins away.

Yeah but that also applies to loyalist player. Expecting it to swing towards Chaos on the weekend is implying that all the Chaos player go to work on weekdays but the loyalist player aren't. :D

I'm still failing to see why people are so concerned over getting games in. It's already predetermined. And if anything I'm sure like the last time with the eye of terror campaign, smaller stores will just make up game results bc there is no way of checking. Play for fun, but thinking anything you do will matter... well you need to wake up a bit lol

Well, I'm going to die sometime too and there's no getting out of that. I still try to do stuff along the way.

 

What I'm saying is, there's not a lot we can do that affects the framework that's been laid out, but that's not quite the same as not being able to do anything that matters.

I was under the impression most Loyalists were unemployed

Isn't there. Very strange

[Montford]

2-0 thus far: my Sisters of Battle defeated CSM and Orks. I should have two more games today.

[Quantum]

So how do you register newly painted units? Do you simply need to go to a store with a unit, or do you somehow need to prove that the unit truly is newly painted?

[Allart01]

The planet ownership bar doesn't look like it's moving. It's been still since the since went online... but more than 3k were reported already.

What's up?

[Panzer]

Nah it keeps moving slightly but it is as it is. Imperium is winning over all but Chaos doesn't just give up/Xenos are bothering the Imperium elsewhere.

"not being able to do anything that matters" is in context of participating and thinking your game will do something. It is in context in participating in the predetermined game. Yeah go have fun, But all that 'score' keeping and GW updating the webpage is smoke and mirrors. Play for fun, just don't be a fool thinking your wins do anything.

Beyond the continuous "the cards are stacked in the Imperium's favour" complaints, are we sure the campaign is set prior to Mortarion's campaign against the 500 Worlds?

 

What if his pulling back was a ruse and he just attacked another system from another angle once Guilliman was feeling secure?

 

I'm just curious if the story so far specifically mentions the fate of Konor?

Well it has to be set during the Plague Wars. The new Space Marine codex states that Guilliman spent a significant amount of time after the Plague Wars in Ultramar helping with the post-war rebuilding and reconstruction efforts before his duties to the Imperium summoned him elsewhere.

 

The Ultramarines are no longer in Ultramar any more either. They left to perform something called the "Vengeance Campaigns" elsewhere.

[Ranwulf]

Few things:

 

First, I don't really care if the fate is pre determined. That is not the point for me in this campaign, here is what I think its relevant:

1)Getting to game more. There is more incentive to play it, and many more players.

 

2) Being a part of, even if not much, of a big event like this is cool. Its just cool, I don't need a medal or a throphy, or something saying I'm the BEZT because I played it, its nice knowing I was once part of an world event. It gives me the proper feeling of a community that sometimes 40K can take away because of cynism and elitism.

 

3) This is perfect for developing personal fluff. My Wild Host is now part of the fluff, even if they are not registered in the whole storyline. Will Jonh from the UK know that my Eldar fought against Chaos? Most likely not, but I will know, and I can even add that to my army personal fluff. 

 

My Wild Host fought today at Praxima Skyport against the Emperor's Children:

Unfortunaly, the Wild Host killed many of the Warband, but they had to retreat. However the Farseer faced the Sorcerer in single combat and slayed him.

Now those are really awesome freehands! :o

I wish I could do something like that because that's exactly what I was considering for my EC at one point too. Also hell yeah, win for the forces of Chaos! :P
