I've just posted that question on Dakkadakka. Hopefully I'll get the leak.

Interesting that the campaign is being run without the Freeguild info.

The Freeguild's in it. Just no leaks from the handbook yet.

Cheers Baron! Hopefully we get some info soon! I'd guess state troops are about 70 or 80 for 10, but we'll eventually see!

Edit: Ah, the guy from dakkadakka has reported back! Points were about what I expected! I'm really looking forward to list building again.


I have compiled a list of the units and points for all available Empire/Freeguild units. I take it it is against forum regulations for me to post that? Just wondering as it would be quite handy for some people.

I knew I could count on good ol' Bottle. :-D Him and Navarro have the best AoS Empire armies on Dakkadakka.
(I was going to link your paint and brush thread to show them your army, Alexis, but most of the pictures are gone.  :-( )

Not sure about the point regulations.  Might have to ask Midaski.

Welp, looks like I'm moving to the UK  :icon_lol:.

Loved the background for the Greywater Fastness, but alas, it seems I'm confined to the Phoenicium. Which was my least favourite of the three. I might just support Chaos instead, see if my Tzeentchian daemon prince can plunder a few secrets from the city's dungeons, although supporting Nurgle's followers seems a bit distasteful...

Anyone else happy/unhappy with their assignment?

As long as Order prevails and these cities grow I'm happy for whichever city my knights get drafted to protect. :biggriin:(Haven't checked yet)

Good luck to you and your minions, though. You got a horde of Sylvaneth and stuck up Aelves to get through to get that city.

Chaos getting it would be interesting, though. I could see it's dungeons being played on for a future event/board game.

As long as destruction doesn't win, they're the only faction that'll just leave a ruin to clean up rather than capitalize on their gain. :-P

That would be interesting- maybe as an expansion for the silver tower :)?

I'm fighting for Greywater Fastness at my local store.  Might have to sort out an Ironweld Arsenal battalion.

The website has gone live, and results are starting to go up.

Fighting for Greywater with Free Guild. After seeing results and Order initially leading the way I am tempted to try and very speedy build of the box set Chaos and gain some glory. Probably won't though and I'll just jump on the good guys band wagon and share in the glory :)

Poor elves seem to be hit hard by Death over in the other city.

Greywater really does look sweet, but my troops will be bravely defending The Living City.

Look good so far, order everywhere!

Welp, looks like every city is about 50% in the hands of Order. Seems like they won't need me after all ;)!

Which might be for the best- the closest store (almost an hour away) is apparently not posting results, and the next closest after that (well over an hour away) is pretty much in the hands of order anyway...

Yeah, Order's wrecking face right now. :-D

It's too early yet to say it'll remain that way through the whole campaign. The Sylvaneth release just gave Order the edge.

I'm not too surprised. A lot of the old WHFB veterans played one of the elf factions and Order has at least three elf factions.

It's very similar to storm of chaos, there's tons of order/good players so their wrecking face. It'll be interesting to see what happens. I hope they put out some fluff blurbs or something as it goes on. That was my favorite part of storm of chaos, the weekly updates.

Either way, it's fun to watch Chaos get a good beating after the End Times.

Everything's still at 50% for Order. Are there any sort of story updates being released about the campaign?

None that I've seen so far. it's a shame, that's what I was most looking forward to.

Order has just been dominating it. I almost feel like I should switch and get some games in as something different, just to help out the poor underdogs.

Even without the story updates the stores near me have been full of people playing for the summer campaign.

It seems that the Chaos gods has been blessing their champions with weapons for the Khorne heroes.

Yep, all three areas of the realm held by Order. Don't really care about the rotten eggs some are throwing claiming this was a farce. At least this setting wont be getting blown up for a while. ;)
