IN THE GRIM DARKNESS OF THE FAR FUTURE THERE IS ONLY WAR
Within the Ultima Segmentum, splinters of Hive Fleet Leviathan still ravage planets loyal to the Imperium of Man, diverting military aid to hunt the threat of the Tyranid down. Now, a clan of Ork FreeBooterz wages a campaign of terror and looting along the fringes of the conflict.
A distress message to the Ordo Xenos from the Mechanicum on the planet Diatrix reveals that the planet is soon to be overrun by the Orks, with a plea that a datacore of special importance be evacuated. A Kill Team of Space Marines from the Emperor’s sacred Deathwatch are dispatched to accomplish the mission.
Game Notes
Please have at least some familiarity with the 40k setting, an excellent source of lore can be found at http://wh40k.lexicanum.com/wiki/Main_Page
This will obviously be a combat challenge heavy game. Player interaction is encouraged, but as your characters are superhuman warriors, you shouldn’t be acting touchy-feely, and smiling all the time to ease group tension. Be dramatic, kill with flair or brutality, give orders with authority, snark at your rival if he performs poorly.
Character Creation
Character background needn’t be overly complicated as long as you include what Space Marine chapter you hail from. You are Space Marines from various loyalist chapters; men genetically altered into something post-human. You work as a team, but there may be friction between members of different chapters. Please add art to all your cards. Feel free to add your own Strength/Weaknesses/Subplot, as long as they fit the setting; think of your subplot like a battle cry, bonus points for 40k quotes. The Watch Captain should be willing to be very active, and give the squad it’s marching orders.
