Deep in the void of space, deep in shadow a lonely ship glide softly through the utter darkness. Peacefull and sereine it slides through the material realm like every other day before.

But this is no other day.

Something has gone wrong, horribly wrong. It is the 41st millenium and there is only war, and you my friend are about to experience your first taste of it.

Drifting lifelessly through space, life support and power failing, you, a young acolyte of the Raven Guard chapter, must use your wits and skill In an all new infiltration based Rpg. Fight an unknown enemy, Horrific monstrous creatures and even the environment itself as you struggle to survive.

Do you have what it takes to survive, or do you have what it takes to be a true Son of the Shadow.


In the Shadows everyone is equal, Save those that embrace it.

ok so that was the blurb hope it sparked some interest. now onto the aims of the project.

The aim of the project is to create a fully immersive game that allow you to think and act as a Raven Guard. Struggle with enemies far more skilled then you, forcing you to choose will you fight with your heart or wth your mind. Experience an in depth world and an ever changing environment, in this game not even the world you are in is safe. survive Hull breaches, force shields, automated systems and more as you try desperately to escape.


I'm trying to make the most of GW rules so it isn't too much of a jump for you all, and well it makes my life that bit easier :P Hopefully the game can be played as a drawn map adventure, space hulk, or through a mysterious and well undescribable game aid thingy.

The game is in the Design and development stage, so will be a while before you see anything substantial, but just wanted to get some feedback on the idea.

as always C&C is appreciated.

Well, I love it!
Not only because it steals the name of my RG-Successor Chapter as the title, but also because it really does sound deep and intense! The very fabric of our 'fluffy' games is based on a desire to roll-play the battle, and having a side-game dedicated to role-playing as a Raven Guard is simply an amazing idea!

I'll back it with all my effort! If you need help, give me a shout =)

Sounds interesting. :)

So what is a game aid thingy ?

Could expect an "space hulk" style game as having lots of terrain either from the old/new game, RPG, or just the gaming terrain.

I really like that.

I can seriously see this as an RPG game working out. As stated, i'm expecting something like Space Hulk?

If so, that's just wicked cool.

Good job and keep at it, i'd like to be able to have a go when i get to the uk :)
