Caluphel: Eternal War — Juventius Imperial Regiment

With the Juventius Free Regiment absorbed in responding to the fall of Caluphel Prime, sedition at home has grown to insurrection and open rebellion. Xeno cults have spread unchecked among key planets in Gamma Euphorion and Vela Odysseus, while the ideals of Independent Juventius are subverted by vain, ambitious aristocrats.

In reaction, Narcus Grine’s cadre of hard-line Imperial loyalists have seized control of the Juventius system and deployed reaction forces to Spearpoint and Borysthenis.

Grine has renamed his government the Juventius Provisional Imperial Authority, and claims sovereignty on behalf of the Emperor over the entire sub-sector. He chafes to enforce the Emperor’s will upon the iniquitous rebels, but knows he has only enough forces to the contain their growth for now.

Campaign Goal

The JPIA knows it needs allies in order to bring the rebels to heel. To that end, the Juventius Imperial Regiment is tasked with proving their legitimacy as servants of the Emperor and convincing other faithful factions to aid in the reconquest of the Juventius sub-sector.

In particular, Grine seeks to legitimize his own political mandate and set his sub-sector in order before it draws the eye of the Inquisition. General Boden complies for the sake of his own ambition, while Admiral Helles quietly plots to supplant Grine herself and keep the Imperium at a comfortable distance.

Great stuff. Love seeing a good guard company and with a nice backstory to boot.

Is that a punched token sheet used on the right side of the backdrop? Brilliant!

Awesome looking Guard force there. I really love seeing a good looking set of IG, and it’s so relatively rare to see one.
