Description:
Dargeling Prime used to be a common Imperial Hive World. The planet itself had a unique continent, divided in four distinct areas, each with a different climate. When the Imperium first land on the planet, feral humans were already living on this world, scattered on the entire surface. Today, only a few tribes deep within the jungles and the forests remain, as the others have been killed or integrated to the five Hives of the planet.

Then, the Cicatrix Maledictum cut the Imperium in half, and in the following events, the lone Hive World was completely forgotten by the Imperium. Years have passed, and for a great portion of Dargeling Prime inhabitants, the Imperium of Man was nothing more than a ghost of the past, a forgotten legend that shall no longer dictate their life. That was the beginning of the now year-long civil war on Dargeling Prime.

Despite the Planetary Governor being loyal to the Imperium, most of the population joined the Rebels. War is everywhere on the planet, and not a single Hive has been spared. The Rebels took the Capital, Hive Domilius, and control most of the Spaceports and infrastructures. Yet the Loyalists have relocated their HQ to one of the secret Northern Base, and keep on fighting.

The fights take their daily toll, but now famine and diseases have spread, and in the ruins of the cities, as well as on the desolated landscapes, heterogeneous groups of survivors fight for their own survival, gathering food and avoiding the moving battlefields.





Here is the setting. You are a newly formed group, you don’t know a lot about each other (except if two players decide that their characters do know each other, just tell me), but you must work together to survive.

I will be the GM, but it’s your actions that will shape your future. I’ll just have a character that will be part of the group, but it’s just for the beginning of the story, even her future will depend on all of you.

The survival aspect won’t be the main focus of the game, it will mainly be a storytelling mechanic, and something to keep in mind while interacting with others. (For example, if you have a lot of food, other groups of starving NPCs will come to ask you for some. Or attack you.)

The game will be rated Extreme, as W40k universe is violent enough to justify the rating, and I want you to be free to take every decisions you want.

You are free to play any character you want as long as it is human. (Imperial Guard, PDF, Civilian, Chaos cultist, Genestelar Cultist…) If you have a doubt or an idea, feel free to pm me.

We will be using a fairly simple dice system for actions with a chance to fail. I’ll send the players my discord for every question or doubt about an action. You can also ask me about it on E.
