The Hidden Hive

By LETE, in Dark Heresy Gamemasters

Hiyas!

Am I the only one perplexed by the sudden appearance of a brand new hive-city in Fenksworld - Hive Tertiam - in the Chaos Commandment adventure? sorpresa.gif

Officially (by my recollection), up till know, Fenksworld only had 3 Hives: Nova Castillia (sic), Magnagorsk (sick?) & Volg (sick!). Yet now we have, fully sprung, a new hivecity, which, BTW isn't even fully described in the adventure (unless it's described somewhere else I don't know of). Am I wrong in being blindsided by this? Maybe this hive is a "minor hive" (like so many others in the planet - not that important)...? babeo.gif

Is this location already described somewhere else?

Thanks!

I dont recall any information on this hive in any of the books i have (dont have chaos commandment), but i was pretty sure that the 3 you mentioned we're examples of hives on the planet and that there could be more.

I'm pretty sure that is the first reference to a fourth hive on Fenksworld. The descriptions of the three dominant hives in other sources (most notably Inquisitor's Handbook ) don't necessarily preclude the existance of other minor hives. I haven't bought Chaos Commandment yet, so I'm not sure how it is described, but, given that Fenksworld is described as a grimy industrial wasteland, with Magnagorsk responsible for fabricating and Nova Castillian doing the assembly, I would assume that a fourth hive might have been established to support a large-scale mining operation (to provide the raw material for Magnagorsk), maybe on a seperate continant from the other three. My guess...

Hiyas!

Well... Tertiam means (inna loose sense) "third."
