Set before the fall of Cadia, the players must defend key Imperial worlds.


Author's Note: Premade characters start at Cadia Gate, generated start in Necromunda. The premade players are agents of the Inquisition/Deathwatch, tasked with eliminating Chaos threats spreading from the Eye of Terror in The Shattered Imperium universe. Set before the fall of Cadia, the players must defend key Imperial worlds, confront dangerous secrets, and navigate moral dilemmas. They will travel to both well-known and obscure Warhammer 40K locations, uncovering forgotten relics, hidden Warp rifts, and the rise of a secret Tzeentch cult. Chaos corruption will test their sanity and faith, while powerful allies like the Deathwatch guide them through the Imperium’s darkest days.

Description

The Mountains of Torment are towering heaps of rusted metal, ancient war machines, and the discarded remains of Iron Warriors' conquests. They loom over the landscape, blocking the sky and creating an environment where hope feels like a distant memory. Dark Mechanicus servants roam these heaps, reclaiming resources for new engines of destruction. Players experience hazardous exploration and opportunities for sabotage. Players must navigate hazardous terrain, avoiding unstable wrecks while hunting for valuable salvage or infiltrating enemy-held foundries. Scavenging may provide rare upgrades, but each step is a risk, with traps and lurking mutants potentially lying in wait. This is a place where ingenuity is rewarded, and recklessness punished.
