Heh, was it Empire Cannons and Bretona cavalry then? I only played the game once :D Yep, Empire and Dorfs have gunpowder artillery while Brets have trebuchets

Chaos Lord riding his mighty steed....a pug.
This really sounds fun and random event would be best but evil sister stealing comrades for her tea party of doom could be even better.

Y wot m8? Although in all seriousness, mental image of FoW tiger battalion having gunnery duel with IoM battleship is pretty fancy. Or bring up those weird looking walker things from Dust Tactics: TANKS WITH LEGS!

Would be fun to mix it up with other sets like Warmachine and such. But that will be down to the GM and plus not everyone will be versed in the other brands. I have no clue about warmachine stuff for example, which would make it a bit more different to RP interactions or avoiding mistakes
EDIT: Just a thought, are we going to RP a entire force? (preferred) or just a single model? Assuming the former, are you wanting to keep it 40K related or allow any GW force? The former would be easier to do but the latter would allow for some really good schenaganens(sp) as long as no one powergames.

I`m going to be really lenient and so long as it is some form of 40kish sized models I`ll allow it, BUT you have to roleplay it in the right context that they would be, as in no Spartan models who act like ballerina`s, keep them in context to a point. But yeah it`ll be you are the leader of an army of models or squad, all depends on what you want to command. I may link the original thread to show what it`ll be like. Obviously something's will be changed, but it`ll mainly stay the same. Don't fix what aint broken right? (http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/list/382513.page) Link to the original thread.)
@judge, yeah I`ll model it after my family, animals, and house to keep things simple and easy to GM as. So if you want a dog steed you can have it. I want to make it fun and random, but I may add some structure to make sure we have a goal if things stagnate between player interaction.
On a side note, I`ll get the actual piece written up soon, and get a character sheet up as well. This will be on Dakka most likely though, to fill out our ranks and potentially pull some people over here as well, as the more the better in this.

I sent a jokey message to Judge on how you can RP this type of game, in that message I RP'ed the arrival of a boxed BFG game and the marines raiding it and building the ships to use for the scout scout to ride on.
Perhaps some of the events could be things like that as well as normal events, certain materials arriving in the room and the armies trying to make use of them. Like a collection of bits of wood get dumped in the room, the orks grab them and build weapons or the arrival of a Blood Bowl game and some armies that can work together have a bit of a bash playing football ... very bloody football.

Hahahaha, yeah and then we`d have epic events such as dog attacks, or the hoards of geese we get. Hell maybe even the grasshoppers and bugs that seem to roam my fields in plethora will invade, regardless it`ll be silly events. This wont be serious in any nature, but it`s loads of fun, and I really want to do this one again.

Just two questions:
1) What can we start with? (Numbers wise)
2) Is this in 1st person or 3rd Person. --------------------------------
GrassHopper hordes? Oh joy.

1) A huge army, or just a measly squad. I started with a huge army, so did Warork, but then some people like Darko had a small force. (Look at the first post in the original piece, it has spoilers of what we had. Ranging from my huge chaos army or Warork`s Death corps battalion to Kasrakai`s and Devestator`s small vertern squad.)
2) First person, you are your army and everyone in it, but you are mainly the hero of said army. But say I, as the overlord, take a few of your men because they were misbehaving, you can roleplay how they react to what I do with them. Hell you could roleplay more than one hero in your army, but it might get confusing at that point.
