Half a million words. That’s equivalent to nearly 10 of the old-style “Doc Savage” paperbacks of my youth. It’s a lot of words. Yet that’s how many we’ve written about our incredible adventures in the Corvus Cluster. As this is quite a milestone for our little band of […]
TheGM: My five-battle solo campaign for control of the Thar Desert Basin, on the desert world of Morkai, has concluded. The mutants now control four of the five regions of the basin. So, what does that mean for the planet’s fate? And what did I learn from playing […]
“The mutants of Ungolath are preparing for war. Over the centuries, they have rebuilt the forges and manufactums of their ruined hive city, and the fires of industry—and a bitter hate for Imperial rule—has burned bright. We also must prepare for war—a war for control of our doomed […]
“To the shock and dismay of Imperial citizens across the Sculptor System, Imperial authorities announced today that the besieged city of Port Aruna on Dar Sai has fallen to the Tau scum. Imperial casualties are reported to be heavy, with the xenos bombarding the port’s harbor as Imperial […]
“The 740.M40 campaign for Port Aruna was a critical point in the war for the agri-moon of Dar Sai. Troops on both sides suffered terribly, as the fighting was the fiercest so far in the Tau invasion, although neither side realized how the campaign would be only a […]

To help broaden the narrative story of the Corvus Cluster, I’m going to host a series of 40K narrative battles at Shorehammer 2019 in Ocean City, Md., Nov. 21-24. I wrote about this sci-fi/fantasy convention last December. It was a delightful little get-together, with great people. But I […]
One of the more delightful aspects of a narrative campaign is that your gaming adventures go in directions you never expected. So, while I am going to make some predictions of what may happen in the next year, the fact that I’m TheGM doesn’t mean I “know” what’s […]
TheGM—I’ve just returned from a small but delightful wargame convention in Ocean City, Md. It was a great experience. Set in a hotel right on Ocean City’s boardwalk (my room had an ocean view), Shorehammer 2018 offered up Age of Sigmar and Warhammer 40K tournaments, a few minor […]
I’d like to introduce a new region of the Corvus Cluster: the Varrenshall Subsector, henceforth known as “The Burning Frontier.” The author/GM of this subsector is Jakup (aka Thurservor), a gamer who was intrigued by an entry on this website about collaborating with other hobbyists. He dropped […]
