And then the Great Eye suddenly burst open, the Traitor Legions sprang forth, eager to meet their brothers.
Black Crusade XIV
The Players:
The Black Crusade will be a Storyline Campaign that will involve two simple sides, the Imperium and the Traitor Legions. The campaign will progress as each side rages for control of Cadia, the only bastion of hope protecting Terra.
All individual warbands and chapters are automatically entered as this is a mass team fight, so not all matches will consist of forces from a single faction. This is to best represent the maddening chaos of the Black Crusade.
The Rules:
The Black Crusade will progress in a series of 5-Game Rounds. Each Game Victory will provide a specific bonus that may be utilized by the winning side for their next round for ONE game. Each game will have a very specific ruleset that will vary from each other game in the round and even from games in other rounds.
No player may play multiple times within the same round, this is to make sure everyone fights . . . and no body quits.There are NO losers, so just because you have lost a game doesn't mean you are booted from the campaign.
The Faction Leaders of each side will form a council who will be tasked with enforcing their own sides rules, as well as utilizing the bonus rules.
In each game, any participant that is a Faction Officer, XO, or Leader, will provide a special bonus in the ultimate outcome of the game, this will represent the true fighting and strategic skill of the Factions' Command. However, no more than 3 of the above may participate in any one game for the same reason, since leaders are supposed to be rare, not found in baskets by the dozen.
Faction Officers/XOs/Leaders confer the following bonuses that will be calculated AFTER the game is finished, meaning campaign scores will usually be above the actual possible in-game score.
- Each kill in Annihilation adds a bonus +0.5 to their side's kills.
- Each point capture or defense in Seize Ground adds +25 to their sides point's.
- Each point capture in Capture & Control adds +0.5 to their side's points.
- Each Dreadnought point capture adds +0.5 to their sides point's.
- Each Flag Capture in CTF adds 0.5 to their sides capture points.
Since all Chapters are allied and all Warbands are allied in this campaign, no game may consist of less than an 8v8. There are considerable amounts of players on each side, and no one should go unnoticed.
Finally, each round's results and rulesets will be posted in the same thread. The first round will begin in November.
