WHFB -
Empire "civil-war" campaign - Run by Gareth Hamilton
The human empire has been in turmoil these last few months as various
Elector Counts & Countesses fight for the right to be crowned "Emperor"
or "Empress". Alliances & treaties have been signed & later broken, epic
battles have been had. There are victors & calls for revenge. The
saga continues.
Update:
All hail the new Emperor:
Emperor Jaques Von-Vandervalk of the
province of Nordland, yep, Gareth is now Emperor!
Update:
"The Green Tide" that is the Orc & Goblin invasion has crashed
against the Empire defences with devastating effect. Fighting valiant
defensive battles, the Empire forces are running low on precious "Black
Power" for their artillery. Will the greenskin forces prove too much for
the brave human defenders? The battles rage on. Update:
"The Final Battle" is upon us.
The Orcs have finally made it to the city of Altdorf, but at
great cost. A valiant and defiant defence by the Imperial forces
have taken a heavy toll on the Orc numbers and the Waaagh is all
but spent. Grotti Snotgrub the Fantastic has gambled all on one
last big push towards the Empires capital city and centre of
government. To successfully sack the city of Altdorf would
ensure his place in the history of both men and Orcs, to fail
would most likely end in his death! The threat to the empire is great, but the noble sacrifice of
Ludo Minge, supreme patriarch of the colleges of magic has
bought the Empire time enough to prepare the defences and meet
the Orc tide head on outside the walls of the city rather than
suffer the hardship of a siege. Matters have been further complicated by the arrival of Countess
Dieter and her army of undead re-newing her bid for the Imperial
crown which Emperor Vandervalk denied her but 2 years
previously. Update:
The final battle is upon us! 6 Generals battle it out on a triple
size table, whilst 4 other scouting or flanking forces defend the main
battle area. Will the survivors of these two smaller games arrive in
time to turn the battle in one sides favour? Only time will tell, as the
battle rages into it's second week having only played the first 3 turns,
reinforcements must arrive soon! Page updated: 15 Nov
