Every fight I write follows a little rule from a pre-written DH adventure that states 'An Average fight should have X+1 enemies' (X being the number of party members) However I am still stumped on how encounters should be written.

I've DMed a few games and i'm familiar with how most things work with checks, attributes, combat, etc. They often cover info introduced by the 40k RPGs too.I'm a fairly new DM getting used to the DH & RT systems. Two huge wikis with all the information on all the parts of the universe. Get answers from the guys who wrote the books. Give them a break and do some googling/searching the forums first, but they will answer this! Usually takes a couple days though. Submit your rules question here and they will answer it. The Official Fantasy Flight Rules Question Form Tons of great advice, house rules, adventure ideas, world discussions and more are packed away in here. For example, the Deathwatch errata completely rebalances all weapons to reduce the number of dice you need to roll.ĭark Heresy | Rogue Trader | Deathwatch | Black Crusade | Only WarĮach game has a set of official forums on the Fantasy Flight site, including subforums for GMs. Often very useful extras, but the errrata are critical for GM's. Look up monsters by name, type, book, setting, or association in just a couple clicks.Įach system has an official support page with errata (must have) and free extras for the published books.

My list of all 1400+ npcs, vehicles, and starshps from all the books with book name and page number. Furthermore it's often very useful to be able to easily copy text and images from the books into your own documents/maps or to send to players. I love owning the physical books, but they are far less efficient when it comes to pulling up information quickly. Warhammer 40k RPG PDF's From DriveThruRPG Seriously, between the speed and the tabs, it will make you love PDF's when gaming! And of course almost all 40k products are available as PDFs now from. It also has tabs just like a modern browser making switching back and forth between lots of PDFs a breeze. It is by far the fastest pdf viewer out there, including foxit, adobe reader, etc. The only pdf viewer you should ever use on windows. Memetix is a great guy and can be reached on the FFG forums in this thread if you have issues. This will handle all calculations and options for you for those systems. If you are working on your character any other way you are working too hard. It handles Dark Heresy, Rogue Trader, Deathwatch, and Grey Knight characters, and supports all rulebooks.

Hands down the best tool for building a character.
