Loved 'Seismic Activity' and hope to see semi-regular Public Events.


One thing that would help drive player engagement would be for them to pick what Chapter they were doing a particular event run for.  i.e. who they're 'fighting for'


The numbers could be posted in real time to encourage players to help their favored Chapter.  And then of course at the end, whomever came out on top had braggjng rights. i.e. something like:

  1. Blood Ravens 100,000 Trygons
  2. Ultramarines 40,000 Trygons
  3. Dark Angels 30,000 Trygons
  4. Space Wolves 20,000 Trygons
  5. Black Templars 9,000 Trygons
  6. Unaffiliated 1,000 Trygons 
  7. Lamenters 0 Trygons 

Thank you.

It would certainly give a sense which chapters are most popular and influential amongst the Pros player base--perhaps having a chapter selector on the Pros site itself to put your playthroughs towards.


I would make it about completing missions in general, that way you can quickplay into the event with any mission rather than ending up doing the same exact mission ten times in a row to prevent it from growing stale, or being held back by a player who just isn't going on that mission, thereby causing you--and by extension your favourite chapter--to underperform.


Maybe the reward would be chapter-themed items graded by how well the chapter performs--the better they do compared to the others, the more and better cosmetics they get.


[EDIT] Here's how I imagine it:


Select your chapter:

​The Unforgiven (Dark Angels, Angels of Redemption, Angels of Absolution, etc.)​Horde of the Khan (White Scars, Storm Lords, Mantis Warriors, Dark Hunters, etc.)​Vlka Fenryka (Space Wolves, Icefangs, Mooneaters, Wolfspear)
​Sons of Dorn (Imperial Fists, Black Templars, Crimson Fists, Hammers of Dorn, Executioners, Sons of the Phoenix, Exorcists*, etc.)​Sanguinary Brotherhood (Blood Angels, Flesh Tearers, Lamenters, Flesh Eaters, Blood Drinkers, etc.)​Sons of Manus (Iron Hands, Iron Lords, Sons of Medusa, Red Talons, etc.)
​Sons of Guilliman (Ultramarines, Iron Snakes, Novamarines, Mortifactors, Genesis Chapter, etc.)​Sons of the Dragon (Salamanders, Black Dragons, Dark Krakens, Storm Giants**, etc.)​Sons of the Raven (Raven Guard, Raptors, Ashen Claws, Death Spectres, Knights of the Raven, etc.)
Blood Ravens (or similar chapters)Carcharodons (or similar chapters)Minotaurs (or similar chapters)

*Yes, the exorcists are technically considered an Imperial Fists successor chapter. A lot of people in the community thought they were Grey-Knights successors, which apparently even made its way into official lore about how the Exorcists view themselves. I find it very weird that even common battle brothers are allowed to so much as know of the Grey Knights no problem, and the 1st company hides the horrifying secret that they're actually descended from... The Imperial Fists!... The single most mundane chapter secret in the entire setting

**Yes, the Storm Giants are in fact confirmed Salamanders successors contrary to what the "Unknown Foundings" menu would suggest


Each one gets a roadmap of 12 items with those higher up the list being of higher quality. So first place winning all twelve of their items, 2nd place only getting 11, 3rd place getting 10, and so on, until 12th place gets just one item. Based on my math, that would result in 78 items in total. That's just with my layout, though, and it's hardly final. Let's say they only use the First-Founding layout of 9 chapters. That would mean a roadmap of 9 items per chapter, with 1st place getting all 9, and 9th place getting only 1, which would equal out to 45 items implemented total. Still a lot, but more feasible.


This kind of event would also essentially act as a popularity poll.
