I'll be getting my books soon and I wanted to start thinking up some campaign ideas. Anyone want to share some ideas with eachother? Even if its still early in devolopment.
So far a have a couple ones involving jungle warfare. My buds want to play a Catachan regiment.
Anyone else care to share?

Avernus is a subsector capital in open secession from the Imperium. The Planetary Governor has earned the loyalty of the PDF, the bulk of the planet's Guard regiments, a number of Chaos Reavers, and a Renegade Astartes Warband. The traitors control all but one of the planet's hive-cities and the majority of the valuable promethium refineries. Hereteks mine the ice caps for something important, but none are quite sure what (it's probably Necron tech) and heretics rule the world.
The PCs play as members of the Avernus Avengers, men of the remaining Guard regiments devoted to the Imperium of Man. They desperately cling to the last hive-city, using their trademark Tauros vehicles and all manner of combat bikes to traverse the planet's salt flats. Word has reached them of a battlefleet en route to the world, bringing with it numerous regiments of Cadians and Kriegers, but for now they stand alone, outnumbered, and under-supplied.
The Avernus Campaign has been quite handy to me. The Ordo Hereticus would really like to know why the planet turned to Chaos so quickly and how the traitors took over so totally, the Officio Assassinorium dispatched operatives to execute the Planetary Governor and numerous secessionist officials, and the Adeptus Mechanicus would very much like to shut down the polar excavations. The Imperial Guard wage an open war with help from the Imperial Navy (the native regiments have a fondness for aircraft) and the much-diminished Ecclesiarchy and Arbites both struggle to survive.
It can be used for any of the gamelines; Dark Heresy for poor acolytes sent in under deep cover, Rogue Trader for those with a grudge against particular Reavers, Deathwatch for both the xenos threat and a hatred of their traitor brethren (the warband is left open-ended, but works best as Alpha Legion or Word Bearers), Black Crusade for the conquerors who seek to set up an alternate future, and Only War for the poor Avengers racing across the salt flats and fighting tooth-and-nail for their home.
I've converted Dark Heresy to the Only War system. Please take a look!
