Kierdale Posted August 26, 2017 Share Posted August 26, 2017 Inspirational Friday: Desert Warfare For those who do not know it, Inspiration Friday is a (generally) fortnightly weekly event within its home in the Chaos Space Marines forum, in which a topic is set for members to write short (or long if the muse takes you) fluff/fan-fic pieces about their war bands, characters and models. And here begins our sixteenth challenge of Inspirational Friday 2017: Desert Warfare Back in October last year we got wet with Inspirational Friday: Aquatic Combat and the heat of summer (for those of us in the northern hemisphere at least) now brings us to Inspirational Friday: Desert Warfare, where the elements can sometimes be more dangerous than the actual enemy. Inhospitable terrain, low humidity, the importance of mobility, a lack of cover and wild-life in addition to extremes of temperature make the desert a truly punishing warzone. Be it a siege of an oasis fortress, an ambush of a supply convoy, the hunt for an elusive foe or an all-out clash upon the sand, tell us this time a tale of desert warfare. I invite armies from all the factions of 40k to submit entries, with the condition that - protagonists or antagonists - at least one of the sides must be Chaos. So slap on some sun lotion, oil your weapons well, hydrate, hydrate, hydrate, leave your map at home ‘cause it all looks the same, and get ready for Inspirational Friday: Desert Warfare! Inspirational Friday: Desert Warfare runs until the 8th of September. Let us be inspired. And to whomever wins IF: Desert Warfare goes the Octed Amulet.. . Why would a loyalist or Xenos want such a foul bauble? So the heretics don’t get their grubby claws on it! Please submit all entries in the main IF2017 thread linked to above. duz_ 1 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/338656-inspirational-friday-2017-desert-warfare-until-98/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kierdale Posted September 2, 2017 Author Share Posted September 2, 2017 One week remains. Will we see any entries from the Guard? Short stories or fluff pieces? I hear Tallarn is nice and sunny this time of year... :D P3AKHOUR 1 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/338656-inspirational-friday-2017-desert-warfare-until-98/#findComment-4874887 Share on other sites More sharing options...

P3AKHOUR Posted September 4, 2017 Share Posted September 4, 2017 Thanks for the opportunity to contribute Kierdale. There's a lot of talent over in that thread. So many dark and atmospheric pieces.

Kierdale Posted September 5, 2017 Author Share Posted September 5, 2017 You're welcome :) Members from outside the Chaos forums are always welcome to enter (though the entries are always Chaos-themed). I just thought I'd advertise it here for the current theme as I thought some of the Guard might be particularly interested. Inspirational Friday has been running for a few years now and, should we eventually run out of topics over in the CSM forum, I'd love to start in here in the IG forum instead. :) P3AKHOUR 1 Back to top Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/338656-inspirational-friday-2017-desert-warfare-until-98/#findComment-4877593 Share on other sites More sharing options...
