Campaign Concept

I had a really cool idea for a campaign for 40k...i briefly discussed this with Game Thug but i haven't been able to "put pen to paper" on the subject.

Think of it like Warhammer 40k meets Command and Conquer meets Axis and Allies!

My idea for a campaign is simple and quite complicated. A Four Player all out war on a Hive World! Now when i say that i mean maps, force roosters for the whole campaign, map and missions. The whole shebang! Now this is a very daunting idea as an all out war requires a lot of work; like where the missions will be assigned or how to keep it.

First off this is an Imperial Guard Campaign vs. Something (ideally Chaos*), The planet in question is under attack by and it is left to 2 Regiments of Guardsmen, Adeptus Titanticus, and the Imperial Navy to protect it. All players play out the campaign like generals in a war movie (with either a Axis and Allies box or Epic Scale units on a map and those really long sticks that move your men!)

The whole purpose of this campaign is to be as fluffy as possible, develop personality for the forces and record it (battle reports galore!). The purpose of the campaign is one word: Immersion! I want to be able to hire Dan Abnett to write a book about our war its just that cool.

I would really like to work on it, figure out a plan that will work to make this idea a reality as well as find a bunch of nut ball players like myself that are willing to go through with it.


Each Player will have their own advantages for recruitment and attack. There is a lot of things to work out, whats realistic and whats not. We just make a Campaign Booklet and go from thier or rent ourselves a GM and get him to do all of out laundry...either way, i am excited!
