IIRC, e.g. "There's a space vampire hiding out in the planetary governor's palace!" There are dozens, scores of these hooks to design a game around.<br /><br />That being said, there's no reason not to have narrative games of 40K 5th edition.<br /><br />Astronomi-con, though a tournament series, has lots of weird and story-driven scenarios. You might interrupt a human sacrifice, fight off monsters, or capture a downed pilot. <br /><br />A good Apocalypse game is fundamentally story-driven, since there's no real balance required for the forces.<br /><br />Hopefully, an entertaining plot/scenario idea is rules agnostic.DaveVhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08629682074533048304noreply@blogger.com
