And there are options to have something wrong with loot such as Warp poisoning or a hidden blinking beacon to call to a likely hostile force. Loot tables vary both by species and by weirdness. Three large tables are filled with events that GMs can flesh out into full adventures. And rooms can become more dangerous by adding hazards. Rooms can be generated ahead of time or on the fly. Each space hulk has one or more occupants with an objective. Space hulks include Imperial, Chaos, Aeldari, Ork, and mixed origin hulks. Random tables help design and fill out space hulks. Space hulks enter and exit the Warp randomly and draw rogue traders, explorators of the Adeptus Mechanicus, xenos, scum, and more to come and try to pillage whatever they can find while waging war against competitors.

Space hulks are covered in the first 32 pages. The bonus for this Framework helps with understanding and using arecheotech.


Mechanicus Agents may purchase an Exploration Mechadendrite (spine mounted limb that helps in navigation, scanning, and tracking) for 10 XP. Each one is named, has a description, and provides a unique bonus.Įach Agent will get wargear that aids exploration: a Data-Slate for information, a Monoscope for recording, and a Survival Kit to help in hostile environments. In addition, four Forge Worlds are included that those from either Framework may call home. So Xenos, Scum, Rogue Traders, and more can sign on as well. While half the Agents need to be from Mechanicus (the book has a typo that reads Ministorum) that is the only limitation. The Framework that works best for exploring space hulks is Explorator Maniple. If you have the Forsaken System Player’s Guide (PDF only), the Tech-Adept is Tier 1, Sicarians Infiltrator and Sicarian Ruststalkers are Tier 3, and Tech-Priest Dominus is Tier 4. The Skitarius could Ascend per Chapter 7 to make them Tier 3. In Redacted Records there are two Frameworks for the Mechanicus so Agents of Tier 3 would work well since the Skitarius is Tier 2 and the Tech-Priest is Tier 3. In Wrath & Glory, a Framework sets up a campaign and the types of agents that players run.

In the grim darkness of the far future there is only war. Thanks Cubicle7 for providing me a copy for review.
