Description

The sinister schemes of the Chaos Gods have shattered the galaxy. The Great Rift tore through space and reality, pushing mortal life to the precipice of oblivion. The Gilead System has lost contact with the vast Imperium, trapped in the silent darkness. As the shadows of extinction loom, hope fades but is not yet entirely extinguished. Rallied by the Rogue Trader Jakel Varonius, a disparate group are dedicated to doing what must be done to keep the Gilead System from being consumed by the darkness. Can they resist the machinations of Chaos as well as the plots of those who see the rift as an opportunity to further their own power?

Time is running out in the 41st Millennium. This accursed age needs heroes more than ever before.

Will you answer the call?

What is Wrath & Glory

Warhammer 40,000 Roleplay: Wrath & Glory gives you the freedom to roleplay Warhammer 40,000 your way. Sit down with your friends, decide what kind of story you want to tell, and assemble your squad from a host of iconic Archetypes. Warhammer 40,000 is a vast and phenomenally exciting setting, offering up a massive range of customisable characters to play and a million ways to adventure.

A new era has dawned, and the galaxy is more dangerous than ever — the perfect time to dive into epic and terrible tales. The vastness of space is rife with opportunities for exploration; can your Rogue Trader find profit from an Aeldari alliance? What strange xenos will you find (and purge) with your Inquisitorial retinue? Where will you get enough red paint to make this Kill Kroozer go faster?

The Game System

Wrath & Glory uses a d6 dice pool system that will be instantly familiar to Warhammer 40,000 players and easy to learn for anyone else. There are a lot of cool features to the system, and learning is far more fun when you’re actually playing!

Whenever your character tries to do something and the result is uncertain, you roll a Test based on your character’s Attributes and Skills. A result of 4 or 5 on a dice counts as an Icon. Get more Icons than the Difficulty Number, and you succeed at whatever you’re trying to do. Results of 6 count for 2 Icons, and can also be used for extra effects, like gaining more information from a task, or doing it quicker.

Add in the Wrath die for extra drama on any roll. A result of 6 on the Wrath die awards you a point of Wrath and triggers a gloriously gory critical hit in combat. A result of 1 on the Wrath die triggers a narrative Complication, regardless of whether you failed or succeeded; the perfect opportunity for players and GMs to work together to create a more engaging narrative.

‘Your communion with the machine spirit was successful, but you didn’t just open one door – you hear another slide open, and another, followed by the unmistakable skittering of chitinous claws on plascrete heading towards your warband!’

Combat is fast, fluid, and undeniably deadly with powerful weapons, bolters, and brutal critical hit tables — just what you’d expect from Warhammer: 40,000. Interaction Attacks let characters who aren’t 7-foot tall ceramite-clad transhumans get in on the fun too. Use your Tech Skill to distract an enemy with a Cherub, or Intimidate them with your Commissarial presence.
