Coming soon... the campaign for Azmodov 7

Azmodov 7.  A barely noticeable, unintresting and agricultural planet in the Pax Arcadia empire.  Life is calm there.  Barely anything happens... and then they came.


The immanterium burst open and the sons of Fulgrim, the Emperor's Children, started to make landfall, bound to grab every soul for themselves in an orgy of pain, excess and pleasure.

It all started so innocent.  Bored youth?  Greedy communal masters?  Who knows, but they started hovering together on the backward planet.  And from the small population of just under 1.5 billion, a cult began to emerge, looking to put it's frontiers ever further in the quest to find thrills.  But this small drop started to ripple, and as the cult grew, as did the craving for more amongst the populace influenced by them, it slowly but steadily became a beacon in the Warp.


The Pax Arcadia lawmen noticed an increase in petty crimes at first, in the cities around the planet.  But as with all smaller cities, the communication between the various districts failed and most where classified as isolated events.  But it was not to be, as the cult kept growing, and their deeds became ever more violent.


And then a hole tore open in the sky, and dark energies washed over the once verdant planet.  Embroiled in storms of eldrytch energies, the battlecruiser "Intensio Seducto" arrived in orbit over Azmodov 7.  Dropships and pods where launched, and a warband of the Emperor's Children, the fallen legion of the primarch Fulgrim, made landfall.


The Pax troops rallied and prepared to make a stand... but can they save the colonists from utter damnation of both body and soul?



Okay, so that was a piece of fluff for a mini campaign me and Nemesis are going to play.  After years of FWC'ing on and off, we are going to give the six "Colonisation" scenarios from the rulebook a go, at a ratio of about 1 scenario each month to keep intrest high.

But it is of course more fun to actually tie them together into a small narative, and as we decided on the fact that my (Chaos) Marine Corps will be the attackers upon a small world defended by the Pax Arcadia, the story will run here on the blog as the battles are being fought.

Will the colonists be saved, or will Slaanesh gorge on their essences?
