In the realm of Metal, Chamon, the city of Kamala stands in a state of perpetual struggle. Once famed for its universities, schools of magic and cunning artificers unparalleled in their mechanical creations, roving bands of looters now fight for supremacy on its streets. The magical potency of the artefacts stored in the city’s great libraries and treasure houses is famed throughout the mortal realms, and many have come to seek their fortune or empower themselves with arcane knowledge.
Since the power of the Necroquake was unleashed by Nagash and secrets of the Stormvaults revealed, rumours of treasure vaults brimming with newly revealed riches have spread like wildfire along the trade routes. It is to reap this invaluable harvest that you have been charged, but time is of the essence as rival warlords intent on the same goal are descending on the city, and your masters will not tolerate failure.
Format
The campaign consists of four rounds, each comprising two battles held over a three-week period. The two battles in each round must follow the same battle-plan as described below. Scores must be reported back to the What’s App group. The points value of the armies will increase each round, starting at 500 points and increasing by 500 points for each subsequent round. For the first round, armies must comprise at least one battle line unit and one leader. For subsequent rounds, armies must follow the Age of Sigmar Pitched Battle Chart as below.

Objective
The objective of the campaign is to win as many battles as possible out of the four stages, culminating in a battle for the treasures held in one of the city’s towers of learning.
Each win gives a general 2 points, a draw 1, a loss nil. The general with the most points at the end of the fourth round is declared the winner, and will receive a fabulous prize. (In the event of a tie, there will be a battle between those tied, re-fighting the last scenario of the campaign, which must be fought till there is one final victor)
There will also be a vote by all participants on the best painted army, after the final battle in the fourth round is complete.
