Awesome to see a 40k LARP!

I wish you great success! Thanks for taking the time to put those together!

Thank you for the kind words. We're all looking forward to the convention, and if these two events go over well, we'll be doing more next year.

As of this posting, only two pre-registration slots remain for Nox Terminus. As such, we are adding 10 additional characters to the event for players with generic tickets. These new characters include a Deathwatch Kill-team and the crew of a Chartist vessel.
