Space Marines. Adeptus Astartes. 8 foot tall, genetically engineered, cybernetically augmented. In great armour shall I clad them and with the mightiest guns will they be armed. And They Shall Know No Fear.

The Deathwatch has been requsitioned to intervene after a series of lightning strikes with uncommon co-ordination on the supply planet of Hydraxus IV. Acting as material and munitions center for ongoing war against the Orks in this sector, it is far enough from the front lines to have minimal armed presence. The Planetary Defence Force has failed to respond adequately to what should be easily tracked Ork forces, and ongoing losses are becoming unmaintainable.

Your Deathwatch squad is en route to prelimiary reports of another raid, and have orders to eliminate the Xenos.

Oath of Moment is a game designed to give humanity and character to Space Marines, by presenting them with humanising flaws and personality. Space Marines have Demands, from Duty, Honour, Blood and Conscience. And they can and will conflict. How you resolve these, how you navigate these emotional perils will speak who who you are.
