from the preamble: The Argent Empress is an adventure location for Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay 4th Edition suitable for characters of all levels and can be easily converted to prior editions of the game. from the introduction: A new luxury river boat plies its trade on the River Reik, taking passengers from the spires of Altdorf to the metropolis of Marienburg and back. No-one knows which conglomerate owns the vessel but despite coming from nowhere the vessel outstrips even the Emperor-class vessels of the Hindelin Lines for luxury. Its captain, Georg Meinhart announced that his vessel, with its dwarven engine, would soon beat the record for the trip from Altdorf to Marienburg by Hindelin’s Emperor Magnus – a vessel that relies on conventional oars. What started as a drunken boast has become a matter of pride for the vessel. Of course the truth about the vessel, its amazing wealth and the vast silver-gilded dining saloon that is open to the good-and-great of the Empire and beyond is more sordid.
