RE: Campaign System
Guys

Been reading this thread with interest.

I ran my own CMBO Campaign for two years Apr 2004 - Jul 2006.
http://www.667.hab.dsl.pipex.com/Wargami...epage.html

The scope of it was pretty limited, but not with standing that, there were some really exciting battles. The campaign was organised to run over five rounds, and I'm proud to say that with a great bunch of players, we played all five, and got a result.

I see lots and lots of great ideas being kicked around on this thread which is great. In addition to my own campaign observations on the web site, my advise, for what its worth, is not to be too ambitious, and pick your COs with care.

My own story, is that flushed with the glow of success after completing my first campaign, I felt I could expand the system slightly, and quadruple the number of players (to 80). With my campaign and tournament organisational experience I felt sure I could manage it. How wrong I was... :( Sadly I fell flat on my face (something I'm very unhappy about). Massive workload, comms problems with players, and several COs (there were 5 per side) who were just not up to the job, sucked all the energy and determination out of me.

Cheers
