Scales of the North

user posted image

Everything changes, given time. Lives so furiously lived become meaningless as time stretches out and generations come and go while the world turns around them. Empires live and die as the people who birthed them change or vanish altogether. Step back far enough and these too become trivial as the world itself shifts like a slumbering beast, its surface slowly drifting across the ocean as the fire at its heart rumbles and growls.

Yet all history was lived once, all wars and the end of all Empires fought by someone. Blood freely given in the vain hope of survival. For a people. For a Nation. For a way of life.

Video Trailer Here!

Animosity 6, Scales of the North is about to start. Sign up for Da Steelskinz, and make the world a greener place!

No problem mate, thanks for the initiative. All Factions are locked for now but in an hour will reopen. We could use some more Greenskins, so hope over and sign up chaps. Any questions on how it works, do drop me a PM.

An online campaign consists of a number of players divided into different factions. The factions have different goals to accomplish, and the players in the factions work towards them.

The way to accomplish goals is to take over areas and gather spoils. You get both from reporting to various locations on a map.

A report can be reporting a result from a physical warhammer battle (win, loss or draw), a fluff report (fictional short story you write) or a hobby report (painting or modelling, done while a turn is ongoing).
You can make one report per turn.

You are represented in-game by your character. This can be for example an orc warboss leading his tribe.

The players in a faction discuss and plan on how to accomplish their goals, while working on diplomacy with their enemies, and contact with figureheads controlled by the Game Masters (GMs).

Someone else can probably explain better. smile.gif

Think of an online campaign like Risk or Civilization (the great computer game - one of my favorites). There are factions consisting of other races including:

Greenskins (US!)
Dwarves
Skaven
Inquisition/Empire
Kisliv
Forces of Chaos

As Da Git indicated, we play games in real life (or write short stories or complete modeling projects) and post the results of these efforts each week. Based on the results, our faction captures/defends land, 5city or sea locations. We can dream up special projects, play in character with others, play in character with GM-created entities and participate in diplomacy with other factions (cloak and dagger type operations).

The best thing about campaigning is that you get to spend your time with good folks from Da Warpath and other forums across the Net (and across the world). It gives you a chance to be really creative and get involved in more that just typical modeling projects or writing stories.

You can be as involved as you like, no pressure. Come on in and give it a try! I have been campaigning since I started here at Da Path, and I have to say that it is AWESOME (especially the Animosity series - scroll over the medals on the left to see a few of the ones I have participated in). As soon-to-be commander of the greenskin faction, it is your zoggin duty ta git en dere an krump sum gits!

Come on over, mate. Join us!

WAAAAGH!

There's currently an opening for one. And then we may be the largest faction. For a moment. tongue.gif

Just join in and learn as you go. Any mistakes you make have been done before, many times over. smile.gif

One of our gits is MIA! The campaign JUST started, so if you want in, now is a great time to come and join us. There is nothing like "orcifying" a stuntie Karak right off the bat to make a git's heart start beating.

Join us! WAAAAGH!

Sorry for the double post: we NEED at least one more player. We have a massive stunty attack coming our way, and we need to stop it cold. If anyone would like to sign up, please come!

WAAAAAAGH!

Oi Goomb...

I'd like to join in all the fun, but the faction sign-up thread is locked. Does this mean I'm too late?

Hey mate, we have a Greenskin on the edge of inactivity. If he hasn't reappeared in a day or so we'll open it up again for you.
