I sit down to discuss my thoughts about the new Warhammer 40k roleplaying game from Cubicle 7 Entertainment. Imperium Maledictum promises plenty of action and adventure across the Macharian Sector as players take on the roles of trouble shooters for the Empire.

I also reveal the three winners of the Imperium Maledictum contest!

8.5

SUMMARY

A very solid new addition to the lineup of Games Workshop licensed roleplaying games from Cubicle 7 Entertainment. I especially like the core mechanics which are very similar for those familiar with Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay. The production quality is a stand out, although I do wish there was more artwork in the book as it feels a bit sparce. I'm quite interested in seeing where this TTRPG goes.

    That is exactly the kind of review I needed. I went large on Fantasy Flight’s first edition. Never really ran it. I will demur and not essay this disingenuous Imperium. There are a few, very few, reviewers I trust and despite the late unpleasantness in 1776 you are one of them. May it long continue so. I shall take the opportunity of wishing you an early Merry Christmas. I often take the opportunity of reminding my wife how fortunate she is to marry an RPG player. Oddly her mileage and memories vary. I have often taken the view that she is a hobbit and trusted her with rings to happily bind me.

    Take care Jeff, And thanks.

    Of course I ordered it. I blame you entirely Jeff. When my wife queries why we cannot afford to go out for a meal I just blame the suggestions of that dreadful American. Works for me. I bought twenty two Ars Magica books, thank god you never reviewed it, it could have been more. I have never run it. Dear reader she married him. That’s roleplaying and levelling up. As always, best wishes. Try and avoid doing reviews. I do like to eat out occasionally.
