Hey guys,

My groups usual DM is going to be out for a little while and so we've put it off a few times and haven't played in about a month now. I'm looking for a 1 session Dark Heresy adventure to keep the group going, so we don't die off from lack-of-playing. Does anyone know which books have a good one off adventure with pregenned characters/a good one off adventure and I'll just do the characters? There would be 3-4 PCs. The game is tomorrow, so any help would be appreciated sooner rather than later ha.

If you haven't already played them, how about you do one of the free Introductory Adventures offered on FFG's website? I think they're designed as one-shots to get people interested, and should be pretty easy to get into.
Personally, I don't like pregenerated characters, but if you think this would be easier for your group (admittedly, it saves the time from chargen), the Intro adventures do have some.

Bonus: You could even try out one of the other 40k games while you're at it. How about being baddies for a change? Black Crusade has you covered.

- Dark Heresy : Shattered Hope
- Only War : Eleventh Hour
- Rogue Trader : Forsaken Bounty, Dark Frontier
- Deathwatch : Final Sanction, Oblivion's Edge
- Black Crusade : Broken Chains

I'll be GMing a FFG game when we rotate again (another few months), so I was just picking the one that I am most familiar with since I only have a day to get the rules back into my head. And yeah, I dislike pregens as well, but my group will take 3/4 of a session just to put them together, and since it is just a one off, there is no real point if we do it that way

How are the Purge the Alien missions? Are they one session or more likely to stretch?
