Coming to a Warhammer Fantasy Battle Gaming Group near you, a game of empire building - through force of arms. Build your armies and send them out to conquer nearby territories.
This is Mighty Empires ‘Old Skool’. No pick a points value and gain any old territory. This time you’ll have to march to your battle site and you’d better watch out because you might be points behind when it comes to military strength.
In actual fact this is a board game and when two opposing game pieces meet the combat (if any) is played out using WHFB rules (or if ships, Uncharted Seas). There is rules for a quick resolution rather than using a wargame for those who don’t feel inclined to fight a 500 v 1500 point battle.
There are rules for character advancement, finding rare locations and conducting sieges. You can capture and ransom enemy characters and espionage can play its part.
Requirements to play: a determination to see it through and the ability to field a reasonable Warhammer army. The capability to field a 1500 point army is the minimum (IMHO). 3000 points is more nearer the ideal mark.
The campaign will probably play to a time limit (in real time) as in my experience campaigns peter out when people realise they can’t win. This way there’s (I hope) a dramatic finish as player fight to conquer as much as they can.
