Since Devlan is mainly a mining planet, it hasn’t faced war before. This lack of experience leaves the local garrison unprepared for a serious threat like the Red Terror. In a desperate move, a specialized unit called Spectre Squad, known as Jester, is sent in to confront this menace. With battle scars from fights against Ork walkers, Drukhari raids, and Aeldari Wraithguard, Jester is the best option available.
As they track their target, the tension builds. Are they the hunters, or are they being hunted? The climax unfolds in a dramatic showdown where the squad makes a valiant stand, recognizing they are the only barrier between the Red Terror and the terrified civilians fleeing for their lives.
The Mission Pack
Joint Ops: Terror on Devlan offers a fresh narrative with nine missions designed for cooperative or solo play. Each mission centers around the Red Terror and its formidable Termagants and Ripper Swarms. While you can jump into any mission at random, the real depth comes from the campaign mode.
Starting with “Mission 01: The Hunt Begins,” your victories and defeats shape the campaign’s direction. After the fourth mission, the paths split dramatically, leading to different outcomes—from triumphant victories to crushing defeats. Flexibility is key; you can adjust the number of NPCs or their health to ramp up the challenge.
