Well, today I rediscovered my interest in some called Warhammer 40k RPG (40kRPG). What is Warhammer 40k? Well, actually, its Warhammer 40,000, which stands for the 41st Millennium, the time in which the game is set.

But, before I get into to much detail, what is Warhammer 40k? (Henceforth abbreviated to 40k). 40k is a table-top miniature wargamming where armies of a gothic, dark, corrupt, and amazingly cool, human empire of the future set in our galaxy, fight against evil, nasty aliens trying to destroy his empire (the Imperium of Man).

So 40kRPG is set in this realm of horror and despair. In the game, the PCs (player characters, for all you non-rpg people) are members of an inquisitor’s (people with lots of power whose job is to defend the Imperium from daemons, evil chaos worshippers, and aliens) retinue. These people can be everything from a former member of the Imperial Guard (read, army) or perhaps a member of the faction of the Imperium that worships and controls the Imperium’s technology, the Adeptus Mechanicus (or something, its shorted to Ad. Mech. usually).

Anyways, 40kRPG is being created by Black Industries, they have a blog on blogger.com, a forum for discussing the game, and a few other things, links to which can be found at www.blackindustries.com.

So check the site out (if you already haven’t) and remember if you haven’t already, LEAVE A COMMENT! I WANT TO KNOW THAT YOU ARE HERE!

I think next time I’ll tell you guys a bit more about 40k.
