The Frameworks are very specific to certain patrons and their goals a sample Framework might be “an Archdeacon in the Ecclesiarchy employs you to punish blasphemy and enforce Ecclesiarchal law.” Each Framework comes with an associated set of mechanical benefits and equipment and also a set of limitations. Each campaign of Wrath & Glory starts with a Framework laid out by the Game Master which describes the overall concept of the campaign and the types of missions the party will encounter. That’s not to say that it’s a wild free-for-all every time. In fact, depending on your campaign you might even have an Aeldari Warlock join the fray. You’re not limited to the sort of characters that you might find on a Rogue Trader vessel or serving in an Astra Militarum Regiment your party could easily consist of a veteran Guardsman, a Techpriest, a Sister of Battle, and a Tactical Marine. Instead it aims for a broader experience, where your options are (to a degree) more open. Unlike the earlier Fantasy Flight Games lines of 40k RPGs, Wrath & Glory doesn’t focus on one facet of the galaxy to explore in depth. The C7 version streamlined the game, cutting some of the more unusual gameplay aspects such as the Campaign Card deck that allowed players to drastically alter play or the Threatening Tasks minigame that represented intense and time-sensitive situations requiring multiple resolutions (think Skill Challenges from 4e D&D). This new edition was still based on the same core mechanics and ideas but was recognizably its own different game.

In a surprise move, Cubicle 7 picked up the license in 2019 and by early 2020 a new edition of the game hit (digital) shelves. Originally put out by Ulisses Spiele in 2018, Wrath & Glory sputtered out not long after launch, putting out only the core book and one adventure pack.

I did however run a campaign for about two years so when the demand came for a Goonhammer review I leapt at the chance. In the interest of transparency, I want to mention up front that this review is neither paid nor sponsored Cubicle 7 has not provided me with any material or content for review purposes. Much like its cousin Warhammer Age of Sigmar: Soulbound, Wrath & Glory is a fully contained game, requiring nothing beyond the core book to run a perfectly cromulent campaign.

Warhammer!Ĭhances are pretty good that if you’re on this particular site reading this particular article you probably don’t need an introduction to Warhammer 40k, but you might not be familiar with Warhammer 40,000: Wrath & Glory, the tabletop role-playing game published by Cubicle 7.
