INSANE RIG table for extra random

This table was created for when the usual table is just a bit tame. Sure, many things on this table is very mundane, but it's the variation that is key. This table has 100 entries with several of them having multiple options.

When using this table do know that random entries are very potent, like the Vortex grenade. So only roll on this if your players rolled kinda well. Or got a 1 or exact on the Regimantal commands order. This table does have a few possibly game breaking items so use caution when implementing them. Also be sure to use relevant lore skills for the characters to realize what has been delivered to them.

And lastly, as game builder and/or GM you can always just forbid certain entries. Now enjoy the Insane RIG table.

Some things are marked with a *, this is a limited item and overrides any altered numbers other rules might imply.

1 A set of extremely detailed, highly classified, maps for a battlefront on a planet none of the PCs have heard of with a date indicating they were current ((2d10+3)*10 + 1d10) years ago.

2 A large collection of boardgames, card-games, and dice-games. They all have a religious theme, but can be reworked as gambling games with minimal effort.

3 A box of spare wrist-guards for Imperial Navy issue armoured space-suits.

4 A case of towels. Sizes and colors are highly variable.

5 A dozen mousetraps.

6 A large case of lasgun power packs, with the wrong fitting for the Regiment's weapons. Three adapter kits.

7 Bow and 10 arrows.

8 Bootlaces. Thousands and thousands of bootlaces.

9 x10,000 standard pattern infantry boots. All left boots.

10 Pallet of Earthshaker shells, fuses not included

11 x1000 litres of Promethium

12 x1 crate of spare track links

13 x6 prefab barracks sufficient to house a platoon, some assembly required.

14 One (1) Imperial Guard Standard Issue Type-II Feudal World Artillery Piece (a blackpowder cannon). Comes with twenty projectiles and enough black powder and wadding to fire them all, as well as the correct tools for use and maintenance.

15 x50 Best Craftsmanship Precision Drill Lasguns (no firing mechanism, specially painted for visibility, basically exists for people to do fancy drill stunts with).

16 The bones of a saint, sent as reliquaries to inspire and console the troops. (By mistake, the regiment has been sent three skulls, all identified as belonging to the same saint). *It's only ever a single box, but the contents may vary. Perhaps 2 full skeletons? 50 index fingers?

17 x300 copies of a different version of the Uplifting Primer which includes information which is censored in the version the PCs have.

18 If the unit is all one gender (like all male) they get hygiene products for the opposite gender. Otherwise 10 Helmets for space suits.

19 A live Tyranid, locked in a stasis pod marked with the Inquisitorial seal. For bonus points, a large status display indicates the power is low. Mess with it and risk offending the big I? Or leave it alone? *Can only arrive once on a frontline, but not limited by number.

20 Letters and packages. From Home. Congratulations, that doesn't happen very often. OR                                                                                                                                                                                                                                              Alternately, letters and packages from the home of another regiment. Could be interesting if it's one serving on the same front.

21 A box full of Tau propaganda bound in covers that make it look like the uplifting primer.

22 A crate full of model tanks, model soldiers, and model aircraft, a large set of boards resembling the terrain of the local area, and some sticks for moving the models around on the boards. This should probably have been sent to HQ.

23 Ecclesiastical materials, prayer books, etc ... all intended for a regiment from a different sector. The content is mildly heretical by the standards of this regiment's chaplains.

24 An urn marked with official seals of the Adeptus Munitorum. Inside there are ashes.

25 Porn. Officially authorised porn. It's ... kind of dull.

26 An Astartes bolter in a box with the note: "Chapter iconography unknown to us. Set the Adepts to identify this ASAP - recovering a relic like that should score our Crusade major political points with that chapter, whichever one it might be."

This grenade tears open a vortex into the Warp that is 3 meters wide. Anyone in this radius must pass a -10 Agility test or be immediately sucked into the warp. (This usually means instant death.)

At the end of every round, roll a d10, and apply the following:                                                                                                                                                                 1-4 - The Vortex winks out of existence, leaving behind only deafening silence. 5-7 - The Vortex continues to greedily drink reality, but does not move or expand. 8-9 - The Vortex moves ten meters in a random direction, absorbing everything in its path. 9-0 - The Vortex doubles in size and radius. *Only one at a time can arrive.
