Imperial patrol fleet [photo by RIP] Schismatic class light cruiser in Steffenrith's Nebula (Segmentum Pacificus) [photo by MKG] After a few months of hard team-work, I can proudly present the Book of Nemesis – the complilation of the best Battlefleet Gothic rules we have published on the Cypra Probatii portal. Most of them were extensively playtested during a few events and uncounted number of home games. Marcin K. Gerkowicz The idea of this publication was born at the 'Charkov System' event in July 2007. We created and accepted at our events such a number of additional rules that I realised that they should be compiled in one place to avoid confusion. The Nemesis sector itself was invented in the Spring of 2006, when I was preparing the for first BFG event in Poland - 'War in Nemesis Sector' . In the next year, piece by piece, I created its history, starting from loose beer discussions to methodical work, and soon this region of the WH40k universe gained its final shape. Although we tried to make The Book as balanced as possible, remember that the rules presented here are unofficial and you should consult your oppontent or event organiser to check that you can use them. I would like to thank to all Book's co-authors for their fine job, to Iain 'Cybershadow'Werry for proof reading, and to Andy Hall for giving me the motivation and allowing me to use GW owned graphics. And finally, last but not least, one technical note: the Book of Nemesis is designed for 2-page printing. You may print and bind it as a normal book. main editor Lublin 15.IX.2007 EDITOR'S NOTE Forgotten conflict, in forgotten place with no meaning Honour, which is no longer needed Sins, which will not be punished There is more important, to survive the next day Abandon all hope, because it is Nemesis sector... -from Francis Esterbanach's „Tales of the Heroes” CONTENTS History of Nemesis Sector ...............................................................................................................................4 Pirate War-the greatest conflict in the region in 41st Millenium ........................................................................................................................... 6 Ships of Nemesis Sector ................................................................................................................................. 9 Defences of Gehenna System ...................................................................................................................... 24 Warhost Nemesis fleet list ............................................................................................................................. 26 Ordo Xenos Expeditionaty Forces fleet list ................................................................................................. 28 Additional Rules ............................................................................................................................................ 30 Tau appeals chart .................................................................................................................................................................................................... 30 Dark Eldar refits ...................................................................................................................................................................................................... 31 Necron refits and appeal chart ............................................................................................................................................................................... 32 Sub-sector maps ............................................................................................................................................ 34 Gehenna System campaign (incl. rules of tree-based campaigns) ........................................................... 36 Scenarios .............
