Deathwatch - The Emperor Protects
Deathwatch | Campaign
About the adventure
Welcome to the frontlines Battle-Brother! You are a Space Marine, one of the Imperium’s supreme warriors. Genetically enhanced and engineered with special implants to be the ultimate soldier, you are far stronger, tougher—and deadlier—than any human being. You have been selected to join an elite warrior brotherhood of alien-hunters known as the Deathwatch. As a Deathwatch Space Marine, your duty is to seek out vile alien ruins on forbidden worlds, venture behind enemy lines to perform special missions no one else can accomplish, and confront the most dangerous challenges the galaxy possesses...challenges that only the heroes of the Space Marines can defeat. And Jericho Reach is full of such challenges.

Captain66 is a great GM, I highly recommend him. I’ve played Warhammer Fantasy, Delta Green, and Discworld games with him as GM. He runs fun campaigns, really knows the rules and campaign, is helpful with beginners learning the rules and how to play in Foundry, and is a nice person with a good sense of humor!

Playing Twilight 2000 under this GM has been pretty amazing. Unfortunately Real Life is making me step aside from the game currently. Highly recommend

Captain was an excellent GM/Handler. He painted a vivid picture for where we were in the scenario and what options were available to us. He gave us freedom to make our own choices and do whatever we wanted in the scenario. I had a great time and I would recommend him to anyone. I liked how he used Foundry and incorporated music into the scenario the music was atmospheric and entrancing. I am grateful He was our DM and I would choose him to DM for me and my group in the future.

Joined a mothership one-shot, was plenty of fun! Surprisingly, and partly thanks to lucky rolls, our party made it alive!

Playing Deathwatch campaign and Captain66 is not only very friendly but extremely knowledgeable of the content. Presenting massive amounts of information in a clear and understandable way from an extremely confusing and archaic system!

Fun intro game! Great for a beginner
Additional details
How to prepare
Pc with browser and microphone is needed, webcam and stable internet connection is appreciated. I will explain the rules at the start and handle character creation at the same time. Dice rolling and character sheets will be handled by Foundry VTT. Discord account for group discussion is a bonus.
What I provide
I will bring VTT, tokens, maps and rules and sourcebooks. And also experience and hopefully fun.
Gameplay details
Deathwatch is a complex and quite combat heavy game. There will be a few houserules adapted from other W40k games aimed at smoothing some mechanical problems and speeding the game.
