Warhammer 40K's Siege of Death Mire Lets You Write Canon

Ever wanted your game night to leave a mark on the Warhammer 40,000 universe? Games Workshop's new Siege of Death Mire is a global campaign where the results players log actually decide what happens next in 40K canon. It pits the Imperium against the Orks for control of a hive world, and it is live now.

The fiction is classic Armageddon. Hive Death Mire, in the Volcanus theatre of Armageddon Prime, is under siege, with Commissar Yarrick in charge of the hive's defences and the Ork warlord Wazdakka Gutsmek leading the green tide. Every game you play counts toward one side. You log a result online at warhammer40000.com/deathmire through a My Warhammer account, with one result per week.

There are real rewards on the table. Each week the leading faction earns a new model reveal, and at the end of the campaign on 13 July the victors get an entirely new detachment. Registered players are also entered into a prize draw for one of 40 fully fledged armies, each worth 1,000 points of Space Marines or Orks.

This is the kind of event that rewards a crowd. Submitting a stack of results means getting bodies round the table, so it is the perfect nudge to rally your local scene. If you have been meaning to get a regular 40K group going, organise a few games and a meetup before the campaign closes, then send your wins to the front.
