What line of minis that fit with 5 Parsecs? I am looking for robot figures to use. I have some Stargrave mini packs but no bots.

Planetfall sector map management

Planetfall colony management

I've just released support for Five Parsecs: Planetfall in the app https://fiveparsecs.online

You can now manage a Planetfall campaign with:

• Colony research, applications, buildings, upgrades, and resources
• Surface map with sector editing
• Local enemies, known threats, and lifeforms
• Planetfall encounter and mission setup
• Planetfall roster creation
• Turn recording for colony progress, research, development, enemy updates, BP/RP income, morale, and campaign changes
• Play and print support for Planetfall enemies and lifeforms

Planetfall can be played either as a full standalone campaign or alongside Core Five Parsecs content.

This was a big release, so feedback is very welcome. If you find something odd, missing, or confusing, please let us know.

So I've been trying for a while now to get my hands on a 5 Parsecs rulebook (physical) for a while now but it is seemingly constantly sold out now.

Are the other books extensions of the core, like Planetfall for example, or are they able to be used as a standalone system? I want to start using the ruleset for some games but I don't like operating from an online PDF, I like a physical book

Greetings, faithful citizens of the Imperium and sanctioned abhumans. I present to you 40,000 Parsecs From Home: Starstriders, a Warhammer-themed 5PFH supplement for those who wish to drench their campaigns in grimdark vibes and nuln oil. In order to get the most out of this supplement, you'll need a copy of the 5PFH core rulebook and a decent understanding of the setting.

Consider this PDF public domain; it may be shared and edited freely.

I am currently working on a second supplement (40,000 Parsecs From Home: Imperial Agent) that incorporates ideas from Bug Hunt and other parts of the Compendium; I wanted to share this in the meantime for those looking for a closer-to-vanilla experience.

Moving from Five Parsecs and Leagues into Haywire.

I really enjoy the campaign Parsecs and Leagues has for play outside of the skirmishes. Having to spend money on upkeep, a base or space ship, taking different contracts for pay, quests, random encounters and events that impact your group, recruitment, buying equipment, the list goes on.

I’ve dabbled in converting all the Five Parsecs stuff outside the skirmishing, into something more modern and applicable to Haywire, to allow for this additional to the game.

Is there already something like this that exists, or something other people have been using to accomplish this?

I find 8 members way to many, i have five leagues and fhe compendium with deep below, I wanted to play deep below coop with my wife, how would we go about using only 6 or 4 members?

I know 5leagues you can start with 4 and it mentions the battles can be scaled.. but i dont see the same option in deep below, seems to force 8 members.

I’m trying something new: a story-driven campaign episode for Five Parsecs from Alderaan.

Episode 01: Checkpoint at Vesh Gate is a linked three-part scenario packet built around a refugee route, Imperial checkpoint pressure, forged papers, informants, hard choices, and consequences that carry forward into later episodes.

The idea is to keep the normal campaign feel of Five Parsecs intact, while giving players a more structured story episode they can drop into their own campaign. You still play the battles, make the decisions, roll for outcomes, take the risks, and deal with the aftermath — but the packet gives you a focused narrative situation with recurring NPCs, mission-specific rewards, and an end-of-episode outcome reader that helps interpret what your crew’s version of the story means.

What’s inside

In this episode, your crew is drawn into the situation at Vesh Gate, an Imperial checkpoint controlling movement between a port district and an Alderaanian refugee quarter.

A small Rebel-aligned cell called Blue Lantern is trying to move people through the gate before the Empire closes the route. Someone has leaked names. The checkpoint commander is watching. The papers may not hold. And by the end, your crew has to decide what matters most: saving people, exposing the traitor, or breaking the gate.

The packet includes:

• A complete story-driven episode built as a linked mission chain.
• Three named scenario sections: Papers at the Customs Shed, The Blue Lantern Route, and The Gate Decision.
• Blue Lantern, Lieutenant Tesk, Olan Mev, Mij Sorna, and other NPCs who can become allies, rivals, or loose ends.
• Episode-specific rewards and unique finds.
• Flexible success, partial success, and failure outcomes.
• A campaign log and outcome reader so your table can see what kind of ending they created.
• A setup path for the next episode, The Detention Ledger, based on what happened in your game.

The goal

I want these to feel less like isolated scenarios and more like playable campaign television: each episode has a situation, a problem, a few key people, and several possible outcomes. Your crew’s choices determine what survives, what burns, who remembers, and who comes looking for them afterward.

No two runs should end exactly the same way.

One crew might quietly save the refugees and earn Blue Lantern’s trust. Another might blow the gate open, draw Imperial attention, and leave half the district in lockdown. Another might fail, lose the route, and have to chase the consequences into the next episode.

That’s the part I’m most interested in testing.

Feedback wanted

Since this is the first release in this format, I’d really like to hear what works and what doesn’t.

The most useful feedback would be:

• Was the episode easy to run at the table?
• Did the three-part structure feel natural?
• Did the story material help, or did it get in the way?
• Did the end-of-episode outcome reader make your result feel meaningful?
• Were the unique rewards interesting without feeling too strong?
• Did it make you want to play the next episode?

Comments, actual-play notes, screenshots, messy campaign outcomes, rules questions, and “here’s what my crew did” stories are all welcome.

If people enjoy this format, I’ll keep going and post more episodes. The next one is planned to follow the fallout from Vesh Gate into an Imperial records chain known as The Detention Ledger.
