Grand Bazaar Campaign

Welcome to the Grand Bazaar! A campaign set inside the largest market in the Underhive. A campaign defined by each gang having their own Guild Trader, a representative of one of the local guilds that have aligned themselves with your gang to gain more control over the Grand Bazaar. As this is the greatest market in the underhive, everything can be found depending on the day. Each real time day a new trader will appear which you can buy items from, these traders will be very specific with a much more limited selection of items, e.g. an Armour merchant. So the question is do you part with your hard earned credits now or wait for a better deal later in the week.

Campaign Modifications

The following modifications apply to the Grand Bazaar campaign format.

Living Trading Post

The Grand Bazaar is a labyrinthian maze of market stalls, where everything and nothing can be purchased depending on the day of the week. Gangs must keep their ear to the ground if they're hunting a specific piece of wargear, as there are always deals to be made, but time and limited credits are working against you!

The Grand Bazaar campaign uses the Living Trading Post modifier to the trading post section of the game.

Post Battle Rewards

The Grand Bazaar campaign uses the Post Battle Card Rewards system.

After each scheduled battle players are given a selection of cards, (5 for winning, otherwise 3) of which they may pick one

Guild Representative

The Guild Representative is your Gang's way in to the inner workings of the Grand Bazaar, without their knowledge and connections, you'd just be another tourist.

A Band Apart

While the Guilder works with your Gang, they're certainly not a member of it. The following applies to both the Guild Representative and their Bodyguard.

  • Always Shows up to every battle, does not use up a crew slot.
  • Never gains XP or takes a lasting injury.
  • Does not contribute or detract from bottle tests.
  • Cannot be Group Activated, or targetted by Overseer.
