Been working on a few other projects so it's been a bit slower going than expected but figured I'd post an update since I know a few people are looking forward to it.

Mission generation for the campaigns is pretty much done now. I decided to go a lot simpler with the missions, since if you're the kind of gamer that digs the Necromunda/Traveller?Laserburn style of game, you are probably also okay filling in the blanks.
So each type of mission is just a few lines with the objective and any particular tweaks needed.

You do get a full blown random terrain generator of course. Quest rules are also done. I just need to flesh out the patron mission objectives a bit.


Starting work on a section with pre-configured sample characters and small units for people who prefer a more "stand up fight" approach. 5 marines taking on a gang of hooligans, that sort of thing.

Once that is done, content is mostly done.

As an aside, without spacing things out for readability and without any images, this is the same page count as Five Men in Normandy. It'll be pretty beefy :)
