Skirmish Report

One of the most important elements of the entire campaign (apart from playing the games!!), is to report the results of the games so that they can be added to the ongoing campaign maps. Each region should make sure that there is at least one person who is attending a game who is familiar with the scoring requirements and can record all of the important details to be passed onto the campaign admins.

At minimum the report should include: Date of Battle Sub-Sector/System/Planet Iterator Forces Cultist Forces Stakes Results

However it is strongly encouraged that more information be provided to enhance the overall narrative of the campaign. Most sections can be expanded to add to the theatre of the game, below are some examples along with the minimum data for each category. For Scenario Games a single report could be submitted, or lots of smaller reports culminating in the final result, for Ongoing Games each individual battle should have a report.

Date of Battle

Not much that can be expanded on really, the date of when the game took place, this will then be converted into the Imperial Date format to coincide with the fluff of the campaign.

Sub-Sector/System/Planet

A simple identification of the area where the results should be applied, clearly note the Sub-Sector (the region) where the game took place, the System (tournament or gaming club) who ran the event and the Planet which was being fought over. Phonicas Sub-Sector/Kildrech System/Cerberus

Iterator/Cultist Forces

At minimum include the total points being fielded by each force, however to add more depth to the reports try to include a rough breakdown of what armies were involved and even include lists of significant elements like Titans and Super Heavies or Chapter Masters and Hive Lords.

Stakes

Clearly note what the stakes for the battle being reports are, for example; 2 Territories, 15 Territories or the entire Planet! For scenario games, certain facilities might have been the targets like a hive or factorium or star port etc, include these notes.

=Results

This should be in relation to the Stakes, so if there were 3 territories at stake, it can be as simple as Iterators 1, Cultists 2. The actual scores as per the Apocalypse Rules, if supplied, will be interpreted as best as they can. For more advanced results the record could include major units killed, like if one of the Titans fell and also whether tactical objectives were achieved.
