Chose a Faction. Build an Army. Play Games.

The Classics campaign is a Warhammer Ancients event recreating the times of Alexander's Successors and the Punic Wars. Players are welcomed to participate in the year long battle culminating in a final battle royal at Adepticon 2010. Game results scored over the year will be tallied and the winning faction(s) will gain advantages in the final events.

Watch this site for special scenarios, rules updates, group meeting location/dates, and Adepticon event announcements.

Rules

The "rules" are simple and to the point: register to play in the campaign, play a game with another registered player and submit the results to WAB.Adpeticon.org . The victor of the game scores one campaign point for their faction. Battle reports (while encouraged) are not mandatory. Rules subject to change by the campaign administrator without notice. All judgments of the administrator are final.
