    So I hope I'm not the only one to express concern over this, but the way the game has been designed...you would need to tell a pretty friggin crazy story to explain 4 factions with 16 different armies all coming to one planet!

    What do you guys think it may be?

    IMO its going to be multiple things, since every faction has differing agendas...let alone the fact that each army (all 16 of them) have subtle variances on their own agendas! E.g.

    Space Marines:
    - Seek resources
    - Seek lost relics/templates
    - Seek to destroy enemies
    - Seek to gain control of planets for the Imperium

    Orks:
    - Seek shinies
    - Seek to destroy enemies
    - Seek to expand their territory

    Chaos:
    - Seek to violate places
    - Seek lost relics
    - Seek to destroy enemies

    Eldar:
    - Seek out lost relics/artifacts
    - Seek to protect them
    - Seek to destroy enemies

    So whatever the reasoning is for coming to this planet it has to consist of:
    - Relics
    - Important strategic location
    - Resources

    In conclusion....not such a hard a story to tell :p
  2. SM = expand imperium
    CSM = corrupt SM
    Eldar = try to stop CSM from taking over the universe
    ork = mooshing

  3. It's a secret ;)

    Joking, I really haven't got a clue how its gonna fit in with lore. Maybe alternate reality, using 40k ideas

    SM = Area or secret weapon protection
    CSM = Hidden Relic or Gain aquistion of resources
    Eldar = To deny Chaos and probably protect a webway gate
    Orks = Waagh!! looting and maybe trying to build up forces with feral Orks

    Its easy
    Its a
    Broken Warlord Titan
    Underground Craftworld
    Powerful Chaos relic
    Lots'a fightin'

    So what happens is, theres a damaged warlord titan on a underground craftworld, but somehow the titan became a powerful relic of chaos
    The orks come because theres fighting xD
  9. I'd love to see something massive that was accepted by gw as cannon....only if it's good mind.
  10. Btw, what's the name of the planet and where is it???
