Hey guys, Just starting a conversation regarding our faction and the next Online Global Campaign. What would you want to see? Who do you hold grudges against? What do you want the fluff for the campaign to be? Will you run a sectorial or vanilla? Will you post propaganda? How to make the best Batreps?
Definitely going to run IA for next campaign. Grudges? Almost everyone, but JSA first for obvious reasons.
And if you need another reason to focus NA2, remember that dashat stole our new shiny toys. Bastards sellswords and traitors, all of them
I will field anything Sectorial or Vanilla for the victory of our beloved State Empire! Claw and Flame! For the Emperor and our People! Traitors will be punished and the Human Sphere finally will see the righteousness of our cause!
Not been involved before. How do I get involved? There are about 6 of us locally playing and we'd all like to take part in some way. Also. Invicible Army all the way.
Not sure if I'll play Yu Jing, but I may wind up digging out my Vanilla depending on missions- Asteroid Blues will (probably) be using the new season rules plus the usual online campaign bonuses. I'd like to see PanO or Yu Jing win in a big way; it's about time the major powers got to do something relevant. I will forever hold a grudge against NA2 for stealing our units, but would prefer to actually target ALEPH purely because I have no idea how CB would react to a YJ or PanO attack against Friend Computer, and am curious enough to try finding out.
No worries. YJ, IA, ISS.. all army's ready to roll. The most profound enemy would be PanO, If I may, but would always love to smack some JSA if needed.
In about two weeks the campaign will begin. Going by past campaigns you sign up to a website that will open around the time with new scenarios and rules. Using those rules you play with your friends and make a battle report. The results get tallied up and filtered by the quality of the report. It usualy involves fighting at certain locations and you can see the progress in real time.
Ohh, I came into the game right after the last campaign so I'd be excited to participate in this one! I'd love to get involved in the fluffier artsy bits as well. And I'll be running IA as well.
Typically battle reports get logged showing what players participated and who won & lost as the most obvious basic element, but with room for additional content that make it better... more detailed text descriptions of the battle, pictures of it, army lists, video footage, linking a report to the report on the same battle by the other player. Not everyone has time to do every single thing for every battle report, but the more one includes the better the 'quality' of that report. Quality reports are more fun to read for fellow players, and also allow filtering so that real reports can be separated from spammed reports that might be fake. The StateEmpire calls on us all to do our duty, fellow subject-citizens, to win victories for Yu Jing and to lay out the stories of our accomplishments so all humanity can see why we continue to ascend to our rightful place as leaders of the Human Sphere!
I won’t be able to help with as many battles or decent battle reports as I did last year as I’m launching a business soon but I will help all I can and run IA!
Start by getting into the habit of taking pictures of your games now. Don't try to write down every order you do, that will drag the game out so long you won't want to play much.
