Special Event - Unrelenting Hordes- NOW LIVE

A platoon of Moebian 21st soldiers has been infected by the Blight. Their armour will make them harder to deal with than the usual hordes you encounter.

Rannick’s sure there is something afoot. Keep your eyes peeled for any clues as to what the Cult are doing.

Play missions with a set of new Special Conditions, “Infected Moebian 21st”, and as a team collect Grimoires or Scriptures to earn rewards.* This condition will only be available during the event and will appear on both the Standard and Auric mission terminals.

*Similar to past events, the progress will be shared across all members of the strike team.

This event will start on Thursday, September 26, 2024 and it will end on Thursday, October 10, 2024. The rewards will be Ordo Dockets, Plasteel and Diamantine.

Note: Players will need to collect the grims on missions with the condition. It won’t count if it’s from any other mission.

why is this about 30 books in a week and not slay 40,000 groaners & Pox walkers in a week?

Because literally noone gives a rats ass about the book pickups and basically ignores them and I imagine they want to give players a reason to bother xd

wonder if this special condition, but also the older ones, will ever return?
having them in the game even after the special event, would be cool.

I’m wondering if this is the old assault mode they removed… Guess we’ll see!

THIS EVENT IS AMAZING!!!

Never mind the train, this is the most exciting bit of the new update!

On auric damantion I’ve not had so much fun in a long time.

Please for the love of the Emperor, keep this as a normal condition after the event. Pretty please with a cherry on top! :pray:

Do only missions with the condition count towards the book objectives or all books?

Are books guaranteed on missions with the condition?

I think so yes. On the mission board it indicates whether it has scriptures or grims in the mission description.

Yes! You’ll need to make sure it’s the special condition though.

Well, well, well.
It seems tonight, tomorrow and next two days I’ll be… fully booked!
The new condition is worth… checking out!
You know why scribes are cold? Because they are surrounded by drafts!

Hmm… I’ll walk myself out. Time to book it!

What heresy doest thou speaketh? I pick up and destroy every grimore I find in the name of the emperor. The corruption of Nurgle must be denied!

this is also a clutch move for carrying your team of corpses through a level. tossing grims can clear corruption past a wound, its like a gimpy HP stim. clearly intentional since its worked since launch.

as for the event, eh…I think they could have added more patrols into the condition as well, to reflect more Scab activity. Maybe even make the Scabs have the blue skin as well…just kinda seems like its barely even a change. or maybe I was playing with too many Psykers earlier, they really didn’t seem to notice the hordes being any more durable.

I don’t have the 75 grim penance yet, so this is nice for me to get it out of the way.
