Description

Operational Turning Points: Widowmaker Absorption is the fifth release of the Operational Turning Points web-exclusive PDF series produced by Catalyst Game Labs, which provides a scenario pack based on the Chaos Campaign/Warchest system.

From the Back Cover

“

In 2834, the feud between Clans Wolf and Widowmaker came to a head, and the resulting Trial of Refusal led to the tragic death of ilKhan Nicholas Kerensky at the hands of Clan Widowmaker. Furious at the ilKhan’s death, the Wolves took it upon themselves to hunt down every last Widowmaker warrior in a bloody Trial of Absorption that spanned multiple Clan worlds. Using the Turning Points PDF-exclusive format, Operational Turning Points: Widowmaker Absorption lets players experience the events that turned the Clans’ world upside down and set Clan Wolf on the warpath. Witness firsthand the unbridled savagery that forever altered the course of early Clan history. This campaign series uses the Chaos Campaign rules and gives players the option of fighting individual Missions or Touchpoints, following a campaign arc, and inserting it into their own campaigns. This PDF exclusive includes detailed information on every world where Clan Wolf hunted down its prey, a rundown of the forces involved in the conflict, an overview of the historical campaign, and several tools and tracks that players can use to run historical characters and battles from this time period.
