I've been tasked with reaching out to you guys and have thus received the following message: What has to be made? The specific guidelines will be worked out soon but the basic concept is: Everything new from the scratch. The WHFB background is protected by GW IP - we have to come up with our own stuff guys. To be clear, we want to maintain the basic social concept of the races, their social structure ect. but besides that everything is blank. Our IP lawyer is going to check what we make because we don't want to risk any IP infringement. Something to note: Please take a look at the current project timeline ( http://www.the-ninth-age.com/news/index.php?news/44-etc-2016-q-a-part1/ ) - we would want to have some fluff in the first iteration of army books, this means we need: - a paper as an introduction for the world to the rule book - paper(s) / story that catches the flavour of the race, explains the society, social background, military structure, believes, ... - a short paragraph on each unit Furthermore the Art department will try to set up appropriate structures to supply appealing graphics. Due to the fact that most of the rules team does not have enough knowledge in this regard we trust in our supporters and Background & Art staff to come up with a world to fight for. Speak with players about this topic - if you know someone heavily into fluff invite him to be part of the process. Organize yourself - you will need people working on each individual army. We can only provide the organizational structure the content has to be community-made. Pip Hamilton (9th Age staff member) will be making the guidelines, work as an editor and recruit a team of writers. @Scalenex is this something for you?
