lol :p

Managed to blag a copy of Crusade of fire for £10 (meaning myself and Chris have hard copies), will go in loft later and get out planetary empires. A PDF of CoF is also uploading to my dropbox as we speak.

From my read, think definitely use the crusade campaign system but use planetary empires for map.

I'm fairly sure I've got at least a PDF of Crusade of Fire. Will have a scan through and attach some fluff for you all to evaluate :-)

Great, think we just need to get the right size of map out, dotted with some special tiles and sounds like we will nearly be good to go! Anything you want to delegate Vince I'll be happy to help.

Whats the state of play with flyers? Limited before 1000 points to hover mode? Where does that pyt supersonic (must zoom) flyers?

Yeah Limited to hover mode, if it hasn't got hover mode it counts as having hover mode until we hit the magic 1250 Pts mark

Would be interested in this if there is still room. Would you be using a planetary empires style map?

I'll put you down you down Dave, assuming BA's?

Yep, planetary empires style map with crusade of fire system.

Summary/update so far-
500pts starting point.
Must fill out mandatory slots in your CAD (ie HQ, 2 Troops).
No allies.
Only one unit from each slot bar troops. (ie HQ, Elites, Fast attack, Heavy support) So no triple riptide, only one allowed, then crisis suits then stealth suits etc.
2 of each Dedicated transport allowed max. For Eldar, falcons can be taken as dedicated transports
2 Flyer/FMC max. No swooping/flying until 1250Pts for both.
Whatever unit you choose must stay in you army,the only thing that can be changed is upgrades at month end when you gain your 250 points.
Low Allowed
No Super Heavies
Losing 3 games in a row increase your point allowance to 300 for next month.
Invisibility nerf in effect
Chaos only can summon, 1 unit max per turn.
Maybe something to stop certain MC's
No AV14 till 1250 Pts has been reached?
4' x 4' till 1000 Pts, 6' x 4' for 1250Pts plus

Missed anything?

Anyone i have missed?
Currently have 16 by my calculations if all the above is correct, split into three groups roughly according to forces (imperial 6, Chaos/Dark 5 and own goals5).

Could do with one more for each of the groups (bar imperials) if anyone knows someone interested?

Not a massive issue as we have a very good core, would just balance numbers.

Could the 2 Dave's confirm their forces as well please?

Point limit on the LoW? Thinking of proxying myself a primarch if there isnt one?

Points limit is 250pts

You can only spend 250 Pts a month on new units, Primarch is 400+ i think?

I'd allow small over spends on points, chose 250 pts though as most standard units cost less than this. I can't even think of a unit that is more than 250 Pts basic bar super heavies lol.

I would probably be cool with a Primarch at 1750/2000 Points (which is when he is allowed anyway, 25% of points). Looking at stats they are good but not OP. What's others thoughts?
