Wrap up fluff
« on: August 06, 2007, 01:32:23 PM »
Ok, things are coming down to the wire.  What are some things that people would like to maybe get mentioned in the end?

Our objectives so far (acheived will be in bold):
Helstrom's 4th
Protect citizens*
Hunters of Sigmar
Strangulation of passageways with support by river

Regional Objectives:
Talabec - Battle of Port Maw/Gork's Maw

Anything else?

*Semi mentioned with help from the Asur

Given the results of Saturdays battle, I think I shall not add any additional reports.

It was great meeting your esteamed self and Amanda.

Just to repeat what I said in person, Thank you for the amazing amount of hard work you have put into this campaign.  Some may not realize for every posting here, you must have many postings on just about every Warhammer site in existance.

One hypothetical question.  If a guy has the 7th edition Empire book, but makes his wife play with the 6th edition Orc & Goblin book, does that constitute a form of abuse?

 :laugh: She'll be glad to know you questioned that.  It will be one of my next purchases, I assure you.

Thanks for the appreciation.  It was fun and I'm glad I had the opportunity to be in this position.

That seems a fairly good breakdown, still not sure why the Hunters did not catch on, they were part of GWs own fluff, would have thought it would be easy to get that one through.

The protect humans was destroyed in part by the completely rediculous attack on Egondorf plot, which was not bourne out by results.

Sad to see that once again it was mainly the Dwarves who got their fluff listened to by GW (with the thankful exception of the heartstone), was this only due to them leading or is it symptomatic of GWs lean towards the Dawi?

I think the Dwarf positioning helped, but considering we were near the top for the entire campaign I'm not sure why so little of our fluff got mentioned.

or is that Egonsdorf, Eggondorf, Eggonsdorf or indeed EggonDwarf GW has done all but the last!

Wiss welcome in the Bitter Moon for a small sweet sherry any time (as long as the sun is over the yardarm, wouldn't want a reputation or anything)

HELL YES!  :icon_biggrin:

Oh my God, I am rolling on the floor!  THAT is really funny!

By the way, the epic battle report between my Aid Snagafang and Wissendlander is posted over at Da Warpath.  It is a really great post since there are SO MANY pics.  Great job fighting to a well-deserved draw, Wiss!

Cheers, gentlemen!

Regional objectives: Howling Heights: Cleansing the Tower and investigating the Leopoldhaus.

This were only secondary objectives, and we've mentioned them from time to time in our reports. I don't think it's realistic to hope for these to happen though.

Ok, only polite insults until the results are declared, then all your bases is mine.

Hmm, I found out some interesting information after skimming through Sigmar's Heirs this past weekend, Veldemere.  I think I'll have to revisit the Wissenland thread.

Well,  I just got my copy of the mattengard muckraker for the last week and there was this bit of fluff in there.

"Unbeknownst to our Generals, the Dwarfen leaders in other parts of the Great Forest had already tracked down the resting place of the Crown and even now are removing it from our realm!"

It looks like the Dwarfs won the campaign.

Read it, however, it only says that they've started removing it, it does not mean that the Dwarfs will have it in they're possesion in the end, just that they are trying to take it out of the Empire.

It makes sense to me!
So, Ostmarkers wear purple, but it's manly purple, not like that Bretonnian purple.

Sounds like a setting for another global campaign!

Is this something I have been missing for the campaign, have there been regular issues of this on the US site? if so why have I never found it on the UK site? If it is of global importance why is is compiled soley by Americans? Why is the writer writing in the first person when the bye line clearly states he is Estalian (therefore not fighting in the campaign, therefore his we's and our's are of no interest to the Empire)?

Well, I wouldn't put too much stock into it.  All it really does is tell you who the megabattle winners were.  The rest of it is sort of pointless, considering we evacuated Mattengard over a month ago. :wink:
