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

Located in the mountainous regions of Cadia, the Bastion of Macharius is a strategic fortress now controlled by an Inquisitorial Task Force. Named after Lord Solar Macharius, this fortress serves as a base for launching campaigns into Chaos-infested areas. It is occupied by both loyal Astartes and Guardsmen. Players are sent here to assist in the war effort by coordinating with Commander Severus, who issues high-risk missions into enemy territory. The Bastion also serves as a staging ground to access other locations such as the Obsidian Reliquary or Infernal Fissure. The success or failure of missions affects the fortress’s defenses, with Chaos forces threatening to overrun it if players fail.

Appearance

Aerial view of a massive, heavily fortified stone structure perched on a craggy mountain peak, with battlements bristling with weaponry and lookouts scanning the horizon, shrouded in a haze of ash and smoke from distant battlefields under a perpetually overcast sky.
