Well, this campaign really isn't like anything you have played in before unless you have played in another Asur.org campaign, so you are a new lad :P Although that does not mean you cannot play a great part. In the last campaign, an unknown player named Lady Giselle stepped in from the blue and organized alot of Druchii rogues into a battlegroup, something which the High Command had failed to do on numerous occations. She quickly became quite famous in our faction and became a valued member of the High Command within just a few days. To the end she was probably one of the best group leaders. So if you want to be a big player, do something about it. But be warned, if you don't have two hours a day to put on it, don't become a leader, at least not one high up in the chain of command. The amount of time it took to be in the HC last time was slightly absurd.
I don't mind them appointing leaders without asking us. Why should they? Its an Asur run campaign, we knew about it, so if we wanted a say we could just have joined. Just because we are the largest chaos mortal forum doesn't mean we can demand things from the campaigns of other forums. If we wanted to have a say, we should have joined the faction and spoken in the forums just like any other player there did. I don't really like the Chaos leadership however, since the leaders has done some pretty bad things right at the start which made alot of players and moderators angry. I hope he gets replaced. |

Actually, I participated in their first one, Flesh & Blood (or whatever it was called.) So there. ;) But I see your point. Unlike them, I do not have 2+ hours a day to put into the campaign, and would therefore make an inneffective leader. Oh, and don't think I'm angry about not being a leader...that would just be stupid. And rediculous. I've just noticed a few things about the current Asur.org Chaos leadership (like you have, LB) that would make me think twice about serving under them. But whatever. It's their campaign. |

That wasn't Asurs campaign :P That was Druchii.net, the Asur campaigns are totaly different. The first Asur campaign was the Sundering. The second was The War of the Beards. But yeah, the chaos leaders makes me think twice two. Not because they are not from here or anything, but because they use methods I do not like. Bur since the mods had a little "talk" with them, I hope they shape up. |

Oops. I was in both Flesh & Blood and Sundering, but fogot which one was which. My point still stands, though! ;) And let's hope so, LB. I'd hate to see Chaos (and, by default, the entire Forces of Ruin) go down because of a few leaders acting like idiots... |

I guess that makes me a new lad too.... *sighs* What is the Warhammer world coming to when 10 blood soaked years of commanding Chaos counts for naught..... Not that I'd really want a major part in a faction I hardly know. I'll be content to be a follower, all the while plotting the downfall of my "superiors" like any Tzeentch Worshipper worthy of the name. B) But then, since we aren't playing any actual games I guess it really doesn't matter how much actual experience we have. Any Idea when actual campaign registration will start? |

You can register for a faction now, they havn't said when you can start regestering a character. |

As a sidenote: my sister has decided to join the asrai, to represent the members of the house Eressea Nelmain that are misguided and do not follow the Everchosen. |

That's my general feeling as of now, too. Unless (until?) the leaders make some sort of drastic, henious error that I cannot live with, I'll just follow along. And, to make things even more pathetic, I'm just going to port my FoK character ('Kaas') to HotW. I figure that since 'Cheese' has a powerful daemon living inside him, he can travel through alternate dimensions like it was going to the grocery store. And I'm just too damned lazy to make an wholly different character. ;) And now Chaos membership seems to have grown, so there isn't a desperate need for players any more. I guess we'll just see how things work out... |

I doubt that would be liked by the chaos leadership, so no :P Copying information from the hidden forums into open ones is not very smart, and with all the accusations and stuff that flew around just a while ago on their forums I think its best to simply not do it. If you want to know, just go over there. |

I don't know if it is actually. The lists might be open if you go in and look at the groups themselves. But since I don't know, it seems like a bad idea to just post them here. But I must say that the guy leading chaos (chosen by the faction) is getting on my nerves more and more. We seem to dissagree on everything. That would not be so much of a problem if he could just discuss properly. It feels like he just ignores every argument he does not agree with instead of answering with argument for why his view is better. And when he does present his view, he presents it like anyone who does not agree has to be an idiot. |

Wow. Just within the last hour I have seen the main Chaos leader behave very poorly and not at all like a leader should. His 'arguments' (if you could call them that) consist of him saying that he is right and everyone that disagrees with him is an idiot who doesn't understand English. And he keeps on mentioning that he has 'inside information' that conveniently supports his point of view...right. Even if he does, that guy doesn't seem like much of a leader to me. |

Hey, Voodoomaster from Asur.org here, sorry for not becoming "Mr Advertisement" sooner but I have been caught up with exams until yesterday, so I have been busy. Anyway, I am here to answer any questions that you have in regards to the hour of the wolf, but first a quick bit of background information. This campaign is the third in a series called the “Dark Empires” timeline, basically it all started with the online campaign that Asur.org held back in 2005, which re-fought the Sundering entirely online. I will discuss how this was done later, but in a sense history was altered from that point. Malekith didn’t lose the Sundering and he wasn’t exiled from Ulthuan, instead he became High King of all Elves. Caledor’s remaining followers fled Ulthuan and established themselves in the Old World, where the Dwarf Empire was at its peak. However, Malekith followed them and launched an attack, and following the Dwarf King’s alert to the remnants of the Asur they Malekith returned to Karaz-a-Karak and murdered the Dwarf High king, sparking off the War of the Beard online campaign, which was fought in 2006. The Results of this war was that, the Remnants of the Asur adopted humans into their culture and survived creating an exiled kingdom called Sartholiar. The Dwarves mean while defeated Malekith and forced him out of the Old World back to Ulthuan. From this comes the Hour of the Wolf Campaign. Alith Anar, the Shadow King, who was betrayed by all the gods until he accepted an Oath from the Four Chaos Gods is the Everchosen, around the world darkness gathers. The First Mortal Incursion of Chaos is upon us, led by an Elf, who wants nothing more to kill all those who betrayed him. This is the Hour of the Wolf that will be fought in the next few weeks. To Fight the Campaign this is what happens, basically when you sign up you select a side and a faction and from there you select your Character (Eg Choice of Fighter or Wizard) and from there you go on to select your Units (1 Special and 4 Core Choices) of any choice that you wish so if you were a dark elf you could choose 2 units of Warriors and then 2 units of Archers and for Special a unit of Black Guard. There you have your army. After this you then move your army akin to a game of Risk around the map by sending you army to different nodes on the campaign map. and once every day (10pm GMT it was last time) the asur.org computers take everyone’s army at every location and pair it up with another army at that location and a battle is worked out akin to a real game of Warhammer, at the end you find out if you lost or won and from that you get influence points to spend on new units and increase your characters armoury, and the system then repeats the next day. That is it in a nut shell although there is a guide here Now, in regards to the Hosts of the Everchosen having chosen their leadership, there is nothing to stop you joining at taking up similar positions, for example as Lady Gieselle has already been mentioned, she turned up and led a battle group half way through the campaign, and became one of the best at it. There is also the example of Tarbo, who appeared from nowhere to actually become one of the Three High Commanders of the Dark Elves during the last war. So experience in the Campaigns isn’t an issue, all you need is around five minutes a day to re-build and move your armies around the map. If you want to get more involved, the amount you spend on it is up to you. The more involved you are the greater the enjoyment is (In my personal opinion that is, I led the Druchii last time.) This is already one Long post as it is so I will leave it at that, If you have any other questions feel free to contact me. This is the first Mortal incursion, All Chaos types are involved even the Chaos Dwarves have units in the Everchosen’s army. This is Chaos’ greatest Chance to take the World by storm…..will you give up that chance? Catch you later I hope Regards Voodoomaster, Loremaster of Asur.org |
