[Travis · Rating 3 out of 5]

Not a bad story, though I would have liked it better if the woman didn't have such a terrible accent. Word pronunciations were pretty bad in some cases, and often the background sounds didn't really fit the story as it was playing out, but that seems to be par for the course in these audio dramas. Anyway, a relatively quick listen, and a fairly decent story.

Perfectly serviceable and well acted audiodrama. Nothing new here, but scratches the 40k itch.

It didn't have enough "Warhammer" feel to me. More like a generic role playing story. In hindsight, I'm beginning to wonder if all the Blackstone Fortress stories are this way.
