A fun enough story with some insight into Ferrus Manus's general 'tude. Still, I feel like it really bumps up against the shortcomings of fiction within an RPG universe, which is that certain interesting questions can be teased but never resolved. I instinctively wanted a whole thing about Warp time-fuckery here but instead it's just a brief glimpse of the concept followed by a tactical retreat.

Pursuing the fleeing remnants of the greenskin Rust empire and determined to finish them off, Ferrus takes his flagship – the Fist of Iron – into a strange warp rift. Instead of orks waiting for them, the Iron Hands find an unknown Imperial ship which appears to belong to their legion. What they find upon boarding that ship appears impossible, though it hints at a strange future.
The setup is solid and engaging, if somewhat disjointed, but when the action kicks in things get a bit over-complicated and the expected payoff never really materialises. There’s the core of a great story here, but it needed a longer word count or a tighter narrative to really be effective.
