Northern Manufactorum

Special ability: Additional ablative armour: Exhaust this card to give one unit with the VEHICLE keyword the ability to negate 1 point of AP from any attacks it suffers until the end of the battle round.

This district has a large concentration of factories in clusters that all look set up to build various imperial troop transports, although the machines are silent save for the occasional mono-tasked servitor still slaving away on a single part of the production line to no avail.

All of the factories funnel into a single point of entry into Tithe’s End Docks, and at the border there is an inspection facility where you assume the troop transports would be given a final inspection before being loaded onto ships and distributed elsewhere on the planet.

You find scattered signs of fighting throughout the district, with the concentration of dead bodies and destruction categorised by sustained firefights building up closer to the border with the southern manufactorums. You find a combination of bodies of workers and mechanicus adepts. A small number of them wear a purple sash across their wargear. There are also signs that the fighting was recent, with smoke still rising from some of the small craters left behind.
