Narrative Campaign | Peril of Liava | Mission #1

[tylertt]

Had a chance to finally edit and complete the first mission for a narrative a friend and I are running. First time doing more of a narrative style for my battle reports, which has been a lot of fun thus far. Eager to see how everything unfolds and share with you all.

 

The campaign sees the planet of Liava send a distress signal when Tyranids come bursting forth from the jungles into the populated areas of the planet. With no Hive Ships or reported incursions, it is a mystery as to how all of these Tyranids arrived. Answering the call is the Astartes of the Dragonborn Chapter (Successors of the Salamanders), who break from the warp and race to aid the local PDF of Liava before it is too late.

 

If you're interested in learning the full background of this narrative series, there is an introduction video on my channel that highlights both the story and rules being used for our campaign.

 

Enjoy,

Really liking the narrative- Tyranids needing to retreat to keep the infestation level up really changes the game up- thinking about the war, not just the battle.

 

Go team Grey Spitters!

 

One suggestion: in the rules link, you may want to explain the death markers a little more clearly- I figured it out during the battle when the Centurions aided the fallen captain, but just reading the rules summary alone, I wasn't sure exactly what a death marker was or why it added to death chart rolls rather than subtrated. Certainly makes sense once you see it in action though.

 

Looking forward to the next battle. I will eventually check out the other stuff on the channel, but the Crusade is the big attraction for me.

 

INQUISITION INCOMING!

Awesome!

Thanks I really appreciate that!

 

Working on getting Mission #2 edited this week, holidays and family time kept me very busy the past few weeks. But almost back in full swing again.
