So, after one play of the game I have started thinking about a quick campaign of Battlefleet Gothic. This would be the planned campaign map of the Gethsemane sub-sector. This is right out of the rule book but quickly redrawn by me.
The campaign would focus on a classic Imperial vs Chaos struggle with any other groups acting as lesser powers and or pirates. We would use the 'new' rules that can be found on the Battlefleet Gothic FB page. They are really just a clarification and somewhat updated version of the classic rules.
The Chaos and Imperial factions will each start with 2000 points, while all other factions (Eldar, Ork & Necron) will start with 1500 points. Chaos and Imperial will also start with one planet under their direct control, while the other factions will be treated as pirates and will each have a hidden base somewhere in the sector. Battles will range from 750 points up to 1500 points. We will use the scenarios from the core book but may add in 1 or 2 from some of the magazines. I should have enough ships to field two Imperial and two Chaos fleets. There is an outside chance that I can also field a surrogate Tau fleet, using ships from another game.
The campaign rules seem flexible and loose with players essentially picking their own opponents, so show up and play, no big scheduling headaches. No show, no game, no advance. Anyways this is just a thought right now, but it is inspiring me to inventory my collection and start to figure what else I can paint up.
