MISSIONSMISSIONSMISSIONS VS. GAMES: Missions consist of several games linked
together. Each game has it's own objectives and rules. Until you have completed
a mission by playing all the games in the mission, you may not start another
mission. Note that you may not replace or aquire troops or weapons during
a mission, only between missions! You may promote during a mission and
may buy skills during a mission, however. For more details, check the Imperial
Explorator Campaign Rules. Remember that for each mission, you must
select an Environment too. Click
here for bonus missions.
BATTLE GAMES: (vs. normal EXPLORATION games) Some games are
described as BATTLE games. Generally (but not always), encounter blips
are not used for battle games. Instead, one player must volunteer to run
the enemy forces. Each Squad must total up it's CAP, LOY and EXP spent,
then deduct losses to determine their VALUE. The total value of all the
squads added together determines the number of points the enemy player
may use to purchase their forces, using the ENEMY CHARTS. Typically the
enemy player will set up his forces using Enemy Blips- place the blips
face down and treat them as hidden models. The Enemy player always goes
last in a BATTLE game unless otherwise indicated. In exchange for running
instead of playing, the enemy player's squad earns 2 LOY, +1 CAP for each
MISSION they have already run (so the third MISSION they ran, they would
earn 2 LOY and 2 CAP). They do not earn any default points for completing
a game or mission.
HIGHWAY GAMES: Highway games use the following special rules.
Squads may requisition vehicles but not troops. Any squad that wants to
may use a civilian vehicle for free instead of requisitioning their own
(choose either a car or a truck). TRUCK: Move 10, Transport 10 troops (open),
includes 1 vehicle card. CAR: Move 14, Transport 5 troops (open). Any vehicle
can transport an additional 3 models beyond their normal amount if need
be, but the models will not get any cover!
SET UP: Place a road (or river!) running the length of the board. The
road may not be more than 6" wide, but it can branch if you like, as long
as all possible paths end off the far side of the board. Place 6 blips
per squad along the length of the road such that vehicles will have to
reveal at least one blip per player to travel the length of the road. Start
all vehicles at the head of the trail.
ROUGH ROAD: Unless your vehicle is a skimmer, vehicles use the following
rules Instead of the usual TRAP effects. Do NOT remove the trap blip once
revealed. Trap blips do not have an area effect. If the vehicle drives
over a TRAP blip, it must roll once on the SKID CHART (roll 1d6)- 1: No
effect. 2-3: Vehicle turns 45 degrees left and moves forward 3". 4-5: Vehicle
turns 45 degrees right and moves forward 3". 6: Vehicle rolls on it's side!
Vehicle cannot move until three models (or one BIG model) spend an action
adjacent to the vehicle to upright it.
OFF-ROAD: If a vehicle leaves the road for any reason, randomly draw
one blip and play it on the vehicle immediately. Off-road movement is at
half normal. If the vehicle continues to drive off road, draw and play
a blip on it every turn it spends off-road. Boats that hit the shore will
stop, and take OO in damage.
RIVER RULES: Treat "road" as a river. If a boat is destroyed, surviving
troops will fall in the water and drift 1/2 their normal move downstream
(back towards the start). Troops armed with special or heavy weapons will
have to drop the weapon to stay afloat! (Treat as lost). Troops in the
water may either move or spend an action, not both. It takes a full move
to climb up onto any adjacent boat. Each squad earns +1 EXP for the mission
if river rules are used.
MISSION:
SUBJUGATE
BACKGROUND: You must bring rebellious inhabitants back into the Imperial
fold.
GAME 1: FORAY
SUMMARY: The squads must locate the entrance to the rebel hideout.
SET UP: Place 5 blips per player, plus one objective blip that represents
the entrance. Squads start on any board edge.
GAME ENDS WHEN: Objective blip is found.
REWARDS: Squad that finds the entrance: +1 LOY
GAME 2: SUPPRESSION
SUMMARY: You must recover rebels, alive and intact if possible.
SET UP: Place 5 blips per player, plus 3 Ambush blips per player. Squads
start on any board edge.
SPECIAL RULES: Ambush blips are REBELS: M6, A1, H1, Melee oo, Shooting
1 Basic weapon. Rebels will attack, then move towards the nearest board
edge each turn. If they get off the board, they escape. Rebels will not
move within 1" of any player character, and will only move over obstacles
if they have to (so you can "herd" them if you place your models cleverly).
GAME ENDS WHEN: All blips are resolved.
REWARDS: +1 LOY for each rebel knocked out.
MISSION:
NATURAL DISASTER
BACKGROUND: A tornado, flood, earthquake, etc. hits an imperial outpost.
GAME 1: SEARCH AND RESCUE
SUMMARY: The squads are sent out to rescue any survivors.
SET UP: Use the ADVERSE CONDITIONS rules for this game. Place 5 random
blips per squad anywhere on the board. Squads start on any board edge.
SPECIAL RULES: If you find a LOOT or a BOGUS blip, roll a red die and
add 1: you find that many civilians huddled where the blip lies. To rescue
a civilian, you must assign them to one of your adjacent models-- you may
not have more than two civilians assigned to each model. The civilian will
move with that model until you get them to a board edge, at which point
they will be rescued. Civilians have a move of 6, no armor, and 1 hit,
and roll 1 white in melee- they can be affected by hazards and will be
the preferred target for any enemies revealed by Ambush blips.
GAME ENDS WHEN: All blips are resolved and all civilians rescued.
REWARDS: +1 LOY for every three civilians rescued.
GAME 2: MARTIAL LAW
SUMMARY: Lowlife scum begin looting supplies during the confusion.
SET UP: Place several buildings along a central street in the center
of the board. Place 10 civilian looters per Squad anywhere in the street.
Looters have a move of 6, no armor, and 1 hit, and roll two whites in melee
(armed with clubs). Squads start on any board edge.
SPECIAL RULES: The looters get their own turn before each turn of the
first player. During the looters' turn, any looters in the street will
move towards the nearest building with the least number of looters already
there. Once next to a building, they will try to force entry (two whites
in melee). Once inside, they will spend an action looting: roll a d6 on
the chart below to see how they behave:
1: SQUATTER- The looter hides, and will not do anything until
revealed, at which point they will try to go to another building (roll
again when they get there). 2-3: SCAVENGER- The looter picks up
supplies (mark them with some kind of marker). They are treated as CARRYING,
and will head for the nearest board edge. 4-5: CRIMINAL- Replace
the looter with a Ganger model: Move 6, armor 1, hits 1, armed with 2 points
worth of basic/ pistol weapons. They will attack the nearest Squad member,
or if no squad member is within 12" and line of sight, will take extra
move
towards the nearest board edge. If armed with a pistol when meleed, they
will snap fire- otherwise, they will parry. 6: TERRORIST- Replace
the looter with a Ganger model armed with a special or heavy weapon - move
5, armor 1, hits 1. They will shoot at the nearest Squad member, or if
no squad member is within line of sight, they will move into cover and
hide. They will AMBUSH anyone that reveals them.
SUBDUING MODELS: looters, squatters and scavengers must be KOed. Criminals
and Terrorists must be killed.
GAME ENDS WHEN: All looters have escaped or been subdued.
REWARDS: For every 3 models subdued, earn 1 CAP.

last player, roll one red die per player- that many enemies (as described
in the AMBUSH rules) will appear in the center of the board, and move towards
the nearest player model to attack them, preferring to attack models with
artifacts.
SPECIAL RULES: Use ADVERSE CONDITIONS for this game. Indicate which
models are carrying any artifacts found in game 2. If they take any kind
of hit, they will drop the artifact. The dropped artifact may be recovered
by any adjacent player model by spending an action.

from the beast (as KB). The beast will stay in place until the end of the
turn of the team that revealed it, and will then "Disappear" into the terrain-

as in darkness. By spending an action next to a spotlight marker, any troop
may pick up and carry a SPOTLIGHT, which is treated as a Special Weapon.
If fired, place a Flamer Template that reveals hidden models but does no
other damage. Note that ENEMY refers to the enemy type indicated by the
Environment's AMBUSH rules. Because it is dark, enemies start hidden, so
use markers to represent enemies until they are revealed. The enemies get
their own turn before the first player's turn. At the start of an enemy
turn, roll two red dice for each entry point- that many enemies will move
towards the wreckage from the entry point. If they reach the wreckage,

anywhere on the board and 12" away from the nearest civilian (they may
start hidden). Squads start on any board edge.

MISSION:
NITRO BRIGADE
BACKGROUND: The team must blow up a remote bridge with unstable explosives.
GAME 1: EXPLOSIVE CARGO (Highway game)
SUMMARY: You must transport unstable explosives on rough roads.
SET UP: Each squad must take up to 3 cases of nitro in their vehicle(s).
Light vehicles (like bikes) can only carry 1 case of nitro each, so you'll
have to take at least 3 light vehicles.
SPECIAL RULES: Keep track of the number of turns played, and the number
of nitro cases you have at the end of the battle! (you'll need to know
for the next game). Use the Highway Game rules for this game. Vehicles
are recommended against taking extra move (it could set off the nitro).
Treat LOOT blips as AMBUSH. Each time a vehicle carrying any Nitro A-takes
a hit, B-leaves the road, C-flips on it's side (from the Wipeout chart):
Roll a red die, plus one red for each case of nitro carried, +1 if you're

bridge over the divider and run roads from the bridge to the farthest board
edges. Players start on the road at one board edge. Enemy forces enter
from the opposite board edge. ENEMIES:The enemies get several turns before
the players: take the number of turns played in game 1 and subtract 3 from
it. Play that many turns with the ENEMIES before the players enter the
board on their own turns. Each enemy turn, roll 2 reds per player- that
many enemies enter the board on their edge and move towards the bridge.
Once at the bridge, enemies will fire at the nearest player model, then
move forward onto the bridge to get closer to the players if they haven't
moved yet. They will ignore demo charges.
SPECIAL RULES: Treat the Nitro cases as demo charges that roll OOOO+4.
You MUST place demo charges in the center of the bridge to do any damage
to it. The bridge has 2 armor and 10 hits. When it has taken all 10 hits,
it will collapse- anyone on or under the bridge will take OOO +3P (so vehicles
will take at least one hit). If you run out of demo charges, you must hit
the center of the bridge with melee or ranged weapons to finish it off!
ALTERNATE RULES: You could have to destroy buildings instead of a bridge-
place 5 buildings per player.
GAME ENDS WHEN: Bridge is blown and all squads have escaped off their
own board edge.
REWARDS: Team destroys the bridge: +2 LOY. Team kills the most enemies:
+1 EXP.
MISSION:
LAIR OF THE SPIDERS

spiders. Place ALL the AMBUSH and TRAP blips, plus 4 random blips per Squad.

(# players -1) SPIDER ENTRANCEs on the board, near the prisoners. You will
also need the following models: at least 1 GIANT spider, 2 spider SWARMS,
and at least 4 Medium spiders. HINT: Use toy spiders if you don't have
enough spider miniatures. Make sure you have as many spider models as you
can, esp. MEDIUM ones.
TRAPS: Trap blips are WEBS. When discovered,
roll OOO vs. Target's melee. Graze = Stun- may move directly AWAY
from web on your next turn (as stun). Kill= model is TRAPPED. Use a marker
to indicate trapped models. While trapped, may not move, and melee is awkward,
May only fire PISTOL weapons. If trapped, may try to escape by beating
the WEB in melee (as melee attack). If you fail to beat the web, you are
still trapped, and if it grazes, you take a stun! Webs may be DESTROYED
by any weapon with a BURN or BLAST effect- attack the square with the blip
in it. Treat as 1 armor, 1 hit- any graze will destroy it. Flamers add
+1 against webs.
AMUSH: Ambush blips are, of course, SPIDERS.
Roll a 1D6 on the SPIDER chart below to see what type it is. If you don't
have any more models for the type rolled, the Spider player may CHOOSE
a type to place! Note that spiders found by blips will move at the end
of the player's turn who discovered them, then AGAIN on the Spider player's
turn if they haven't been killed already.
| Roll | Spider Type | M | A | H | Melee | Special |
| 1-2 | Swarm | 8 | 1 | 3 | OOO RO (-1 / hit) | EVADE: all incoming damage -O (As forcefield) |
| 3-5 | Medium | 6 | 1 | 1 | OOO | AMBUSH: May attack immediately if revealed! |
| 6 | Giant | 6 | 1 | 3 | OOOO RO Scythes | SHOOT WEB: Flamer Template. As TRAP hazard for target models. |
RULES FOR ALL SPIDERS: Spiders
ignore hazards and do not reveal blips. They do not have to attack the
nearest target- they may move however the Spider Player wishes them to,
including hiding, taking extra move, etc. They may NOT loot or carry anything!
POISON- If a spider ties in
melee (or wins when Parrying), it will automatically do a WOUND to the
target (vs. living only).
RELENTLESS- Spiders may ignore
awkward melee penalties resulting from being stunned, wounded, etc.
CLIMB- Spiders may move along
ANY surface as part of their normal move. They may move past enemies this
way!
SCUTTLE- spiders stay close
to terrain- treat them behind front cover at all times (unless adjacent).
FLAMMABLE- Flamers, Hand Flamers,
and Heavy Flamers add +1 to attacks against spiders.
SPIDER PLAYER'S TURN: After the players go,
the spiders get a turn of their own! Roll 1 red die for each SPIDER ENTRANCE-
bring that many spiders onto the board of a random type (as Ambush above).
Then move and attack with all spiders on the board however you see fit.
GAME ENDS WHEN: All prisoners have been rescued.
REWARDS: Get a prisoner off the board: +3
LOY
SPIDER PLAYER: +1 LOY for running. If you

place them anywhere on the board. Teams start on any board edge. Treat
Bogus blips as Crazed Crew ambushes.
SPECIAL RULES: AMBUSH blips are Warp Beasts- they will move
towards and attack the nearest model they can get to (even if it is another
warp beast!). They will attack non-psykers with MIND WAR (See RC psyker
rules), and others with Melee. Although they have a psy value for Mind
War, they do not draw or use any Psy cards.If a warp beast kills a model
with Mind War, replace the victim with a Crazed Crew! If a
Warp Beast kills a model in Melee, replace the victim with another Warp
Beast! Use Chaos Spawn or other hideous models to represent them.

GAME 1:
SUMMARY: Locate any survivors before they die of exposure
SET UP: Central outpost building, plus surrounding hostile terrain.
Place 7 blips per player, plus 3 objective blips (the survivors),
anywhere but in the outpost.
SPECIAL RULES: AMBUSH blips should be nasty- after all, they took over
the base! Try Warp Beasts or Chaos Spawn... Also, adverse conditions
are ideal for this scenario, especially snow or sand storms...
ELAPSED TIME: Keep track of how many turns elapse. When
a survivor is found, roll a D6- if your roll is equal to or greater than

GAME 2:
SUMMARY: Reclaim the outpost
SET UP: Set up a space hulk interior to represent the underground
portion of the outpost. Place ALL of the ambush blips, plus 5 blips

MISSION:
SOMETHING'S IN THE HOLD

SUMMARY: You must eliminate the threats, and recover valuable supplies
before they are eaten!
SET UP: Set up a space hulk interior to represent the hold.
Place 8 blips per player.

damage every turn! At the end of each turn, roll a white die- that
much will be deducted from your earned Cap at the end of the game!
If you have a tech priest or techmarine, you may reroll the damage roll
at the cost of 1 action.

MISSION:
OUTBREAK
BACKGROUND: A deadly new virus has wiped out a research station
and must be stopped before it spreads...
RESTRICTIONS: None. Note however that this is a very tough scenario,
and it is recommended to bring as many medics as possible.
GAME 1: SEARCH AND DESTROY
SUMMARY: A deadly virus has been discovered. It may be a genetic
experiment gone wrong, a nasty alien spore, or even the work of Nurgle.
You must destroy any potential carriers of the virus while warding off
it's effects yourself, plus you must rescue any surviving scientists as
they may know how to stop the virus.
SET UP: Place scenery to represent a research station, lab, plague
ward, or any location a virus would break out. Randomly place one
objective blip per player (maximum of 3 blips), plus 8 random blips per
player.
BLIPS: Loot blips are accompanied by a Plague Marine! Bogus blips
generate 1 red die +1 worth of zombies. Ambush blips are Plague Beasts.
If "extra" objective blips are found, treat them as an ambushing Plague
Marine Lord, and award 1 Loy to the squad that kills them.
SPECIAL RULES: When a model is killed, leave them on the board, face
down. Note that the bodies cannot be recovered nor can progenids
be extracted, as the body is contaminated. If a medic spends an action
within 1" of a killed model, or if the killed model's armor is beaten by
a flamer attack, the body may be removed.
NOTE: any squad equipped with an immunizer may reroll Infection rolls,
but they are not completely immune, and mutation still takes full effect-
no reroll allowed!
INFECTION. At the start of the "enemy" turn, roll a red die for
all wounded models (except enemies). 0= No change.
1= Fever: If there are any models within 3" of the wounded, they will
shoot at the nearest model, whether friend or foe! 2= Model dies!
Place face down. (survivors take a Wound). 3= Corrupted!
Replace armor 0 and armor 1 models with a Plague Zombie (stats below).
Replace armor 2 or better models with a Plague Marine (stats below).
Replace armor 2 or better models that have multiple hits with a Plage Marine
Lord.
MUTATION. At the start of the "enemy" turn, roll a red
die for all dead models on the board (except enemies). 0=
Remove from the board. 1= Decaying. Leave on board, check
again next turn. 2= Corrupted! Replace armor
0 and armor 1 models with a Plague Zombie (stats below). Replace
armor 2 or better models with a Plague Marine (stats below). Replace
armor 2 or better models that have multiple hits with a Plage Marine Lord.
3= Plague Beast! Replace the model with a plague beast.

squad killed- if you roll anything, earn an extra Experience. Earn

game). Loot blips are worth a minimum of 1 Capital.
