Hi All

I wanted set this up here to keep things in one place.

The main thing I would like to see in here are Questions & Answers of said topics .


Starting with this:

You All know of the Armageddon Wars, and the Map I made for said wars in the v3.0 release.
So My Question is this:

I have a Mission that I got off some site some time ago and I be damned if I can find this site again.
In this Mission I got, it tells the Story of "The Battle for Phoenix island", which takes place on Armageddon.

Now I have found Info on wiki: Planet Armageddon

Quote:
 
Phoenix Island

Phoenix Island is a large mining area similar to the Fire Wastes, in that it has a mine, refinery and storage facilities. It has two large docks as well as a spaceport used to house Space Marine Thunderbolts and Imperial Navy Furies.

The main mine is known as the Nadala Gorge Ore Mine and is vital for the operation of Armageddon. Ancient machinery works in toxic conditions as the mine has been in operation for thousands of years. The ore is then shipped to the Valkyrie Bay Refinery which produces the chemicals and materials required for continuing the war on Armageddon. These are then shipped in turn to the Phoenix Island Mineral Storage Facility in the southeast of the island. The items are then shipped on to either the Jabiru Quay docks or the Ibis Reef Harbour for shipping to the rest of Armageddon.

The spaceport is named Victorinius and is home to many Thunderbolts and Furies as well as serving as a stronghold against the Ork forces. It is not the only way off of the island however. To the northeast is the Heliopolis Bridge, a vital connection to the north and the Fire Wastes region. Unfortunately, Ork Roks landed directly in the path of this bridge and blockaded it, preventing land forces from accessing the island, completely cutting it off from reinforcement by land.


But I can not seem to find it on a NEWER map Of Armageddon that I have ( the Complete Map .. yep I said the COMPETE MAP )

If any one Knows where this Island is located , would be the FIRST to get the Map to play/test on ..

Now is stating this " IF " I get a % of Members who state the Location at the same spot, there is a 78% chance that those members will all get the first map to test on.
Now here is the Map of said Island that I got the Mission from:

in all of the info of the Mission it does not state where the Island is, other then going north to the main land.. but in the smaller map , going north goes to a smaller Island , and does not show the "MAIN LAND" , and it dose not state the Island is below "The Fire Wastes" or "Armageddon Prime" or "Armageddon Secundus"

Thank You to all that helps in this .

Phoenix Island: The Steel Legion and Black Dragon Space Marines fought the orks on this island in the Boiling Sea of Armageddon. It is connected to the Fire Wastes by the Heliopolis Bridge.

I would a hazard a guess and say it is the island with the yellow triangle on the The Armageddon Land Map. It has two small islands on the right, the same as your Phoenix Island main map.

Another Armageddon Map which states where the island is.

@grin & @firedrake

You Two have given me a HARD ON.

Both information links will Finish this map by weeks ...

Both of you will be the First to get to test the map once its beta ready.

I will also aloud up to 3 more ppl who may find anything else or more info

As it stands, any and all map objects in the v3.0 release will be on the map, so no one should/would need to receive any other files.

Once again Guys .. Thanks ..

FOR THE EMPEROR.

Im glad I could help. cant wait to see your work :)

I think about mission according to battle of Calth (Word Bearers vs Ultramarines). Unfortunately there are no so much information and Im not sure which shall I chose yet. Also I made some simple missions but not based on WH40k storyline.

It could be nice to play something together, I have 3 friends for our small meetings.

Hi All

Just a little UP DATE to the NEW Armageddon Map.

Thanks to fellow members - grin & firedrake , the NEW Map is coming along better then I would have ever hoped for. Once again Thanks Guys.

Both the written info and map pictures they provided me with have made NEW Life to the Map, and a MUCH better Under standing
to the 3rd war and where all the Actions took place , as well as where Roads were, how Hives were set up .. factory's, Bases, defence lines, Ork ROC drop sites ...

There are still some sections of the Main Map ( southern pole ) south west section that I am not 100% sure how the map is cause of the Map KEY covers it, I could make a guess of it, and if so ,, don't get pissy cause its not the way its suppose to be .. LOL

other places that the site does not show at 100% are :

Fire Wastes - no name locations on map
Hive Acheron - no map info
Hels Highway - some detail and story line info
Hive Helsreach - no map info
the Deadlands - no map info
the Plains of Anthrand - no name locations on map

This is one of the Main Links I am Using at the moment :

Armageddon Campaign Map

will keep all in the loop as best as I can.
