| From 5th Edition 40K rulebook, page 126: “The Time of Ending: 757.M41 – First recorded incidence of the Zombie Plague occurs on Hydra Minoris. Quarantine is imposed, trapping 23 billion uninfected Imperial citizens alongside a rising tide of the undead.” |
| The Hydra Minoris Project is an attempt to create a world in the 40K universe which strengthens the sci-fi punk origins of the game and enable players to create all manner of races/aliens/species for use in 40K gaming. Games are intended to be 1K pts or less, and story driven. |
| At this point I am working on the background of Hydra Minoris and beginning to populate the "codex" with models I have on hand before beginning the conversions. The planet itself is a Lost World, a remnant of Imperial rule on the fringes of human civilization. The zombie plague has largely subsided, but the quarantine and a series of warp storms has isolated the planet from most outsude contact. Fear of plague, a dearth of natural resources and general lawlessness make this planet undesirable for colonisation by organized races, though many aliens find Hydra Minoris the perfect place to seek refuge or plan their next move. In the meantime, the Planetary Lord clings to control over most populated areas as he struggles with the nobles and guilders. Ever since the Zombie plague, what happens on Hydra Minoris, stays on Hydra Minoris |
