Warhammer 40,000 Campaign Rules
Armies
Armies are limited to 1500 points, but can be lower.
Map Rules
The campaign will be fought over a map. All of the tiles will be
equally divided at the beginning of
the campaign between all participants.
Each player has a single action per campaign turn. With this
action they may choose one of three
different choices:
1) Attack another player.
2) Defend their own territory.
3)
Expand into “no man’s land”.

Attack another player: This is as simple as it sounds. In
the Grim Dark of the 41st
millennium, simply
being far away from someone does not limit their ability to
attack you. The Emperor has gifted us
with the joy of aerial combat, and as such you can choose any
player on any part of the map.
Once you have decided which player to attack, you must then
randomly generate which type of
mission you will be playing. Roll a D6:
1-2: Roll again on the Eternal War table.
3-4: Roll again on the Maelstrom of War Table
5-6: Roll again on the Stronghold assault table.
Defend a territory: This is the defensive option. By choosing
this option you get to decide which
mission is played after rolling on the above table.
Example: If player A decides to attack player B they would roll
on the above table. The result is a
Maelstrom of War game. Because player B decided to defend his
territory, he gets to decide which
Maelstrom of War mission is played.
Expand into no man’s land: Sometimes the campaign map may
have tiles that have no one has
claimed either due to an odd number of tiles, or a player having
to withdraw from the campaign.
This option can be used to take one of these tiles and claim it
as your own. It is also the way in which
new players can enter into the campaign.

Conquest and Glory!
In order to win the campaign, each player is attempting to wipe
the rest of the players off the face of
the planet (or map in this case). After each game, tally up both
players’ victory points. The difference
between these victory points is the number of tiles you have
successfully stolen from your
opponent.
Example: Player A has defeated player B. Player A has 12 victory
points, and player B has 7 victory
points. The difference between the two is 5 points, as
such, Player B loses 5 tiles. Player A can now
claim those 5 tiles with the appropriate markers of his
army.
The winner of the campaign is the player who has managed to
conquer the largest amount of tiles
on the map.
