+++Mission Highlights+++

The guy playing Carrius helps kill the character he played when I ran the demo adventure "Shattered Hope". Irony is a funny thing sometimes.

The party is greeted by a frightning room full of horribly dismembered bits of people. Both Guardsmen, the Adept and 2 NPC Guard that are with the party run away in terror.

Carrius (who uses a flamer) jumps into a room that reeks of promethium and shoots a mutant with his shotgun, not realising the danger after failing the Int test despite getting a bonus to the roll (I think he rolled about 97). Mmmm BBQ Acolytes.

The players find a Heavy Stubber and decide to take it with them...serves me right for sticking one in the adventure I guess.

Yada makes a nice mutant friend called Fred, who then gets shot at by Cutter, Krak and Inez and then gets killed off by mutant cultists later on. Still at least Yada managed to grab his nifty good quality sword so it's not all a loss.

Zethina manages to roll about 6x 9s in the space one 3.5 hour session! That was a long night of checking the Psychic Phenomena table I tell ya.

The party prevents an evil ritual to summon something nasty by lobbing loads of frag grenades at the evil warp crystal, mutant cultists and cult leader.. sometimes the simplest approaches work the best.
