RULES:
Warhammer 40,000 5th edition
PLAYERS: Any and all are welcome!
SCENARIO: The planet of Carina IV, on the frontier of Segmentum
Ultima, is a world beset on all sides. Its governor, suspected of
being under xenos influence for some time now, has openly declared
against the Emperor. Fully half of the Planetary Defence Force has
sided with him, and sightings of Chaos and alien forces are
rampant. The Ordo Malleus has organized a punitive expedition with
forces available in the area, but a shadow in the warp has prevented
communication with the planet.
The Imperial Force has
made planetfall, and has secured a base of operations on the
southern continent. The reclamation of the planet goes well - but
will the various Chaos and Xenos forces band together to stave off
their common enemy? Bring your 1500 point army and find out! We'll
aim to get two games in per player, 1v1 standard missions.
