Hey all! Todd (@Todd1 on discord) is wanting to run a small 40k narrative event on Saturday December 6th. Here is the info for the event:
Size: 8 players
Entry Fee: $5
Imperium vs everyone else
Story:
Sector Tiphus 2 is a critical area that holds the key to victory in the ongoing campaign. The Imperium and its enemies have been locked in a brutal struggle for control of the sector, with both sides fighting over vital supplies and powerful relics that could turn the tide of the war.
But the battle has taken a new turn, as the fate of the battleship Redeemer hangs in the balance. This massive warship, the pride of the Imperium's fleet, has been crippled and boarded by enemy forces, who seek to capture it and turn its weapons against the Imperium. The Imperial High Command has dispatched a task force to reclaim the battleship and secure its weapons and systems, while the enemy forces seek to hold onto it at all costs.
As the armies clash on the ground, the battle for the Redeemer rages in space above. The ship is drifting perilously close to a nearby star, and its reactors are unstable. The task force must move quickly to board the ship, secure the critical systems, and get it back under control before it's too late. But the enemy forces are determined to repel the Imperial assault.
The fate of the war and the sector itself hangs in the balance as the two sides clash in a desperate struggle for control of the battleship Redeemer. Will the Imperium be able to secure the ship and turn it against their enemies, or will the enemy forces hold on and turn its powerful weapons against the Imperium? Only time will tell in this epic battle for Sector Tiphus 2.
Missions:
