I know we've got a lot of bits and pieces ongoing in the Nook at the minute, but I was wondering if a Deathwatch (kinda) SM short game would be of any import. Beginners looking to take the plunge are welcome, we'll handle the crunch, but please bring your own lunch. Premise: Third War of Armageddon. Location gets chosen to allow everyone to get the band together, so Hemlock River, Equatorial Jungle (probably this, or some bloody awful plonk of desert somewhere), possibly in a hive, so it's Cityfight all day, every day. My initial thoughts (restrictions): Only Armageddon Chapters No homebrew or Marines who simply have no lore being there. No BT characters (They're busy or in crusades etc) No FT characters (They're busy killing civilians) No Relictors (They're busy stealing stuff) No Blackshields However, 1 x Player (with GM work) may buy the 'Return to Duty' deed, which will make the Marine a DW Veteran. This then opens up the full gamut of DW stuff only for that Player. This Player cannot be a Libby. No Tyrannic War Vets No Goddamned Tom Cruise No human, or Xenos characters 1 x Libby character max, highly GM/Player engineered (i.e: I will work with you) No other restrictions on Specialty No Deathwatch training (all RF will require Tests) Spec Ammo restrictions Ammo comes from a limited D10 pool of types I randomly roll, can be taken by whoever, no need to Req Ammo = Rule of 3. Start Play as Rank 1 Start with 1500xp Start play with 20 Renown (Respected) All Marines get 3 Fate Points (you don't roll, it's 3) All starting weapons are Standard Marine gear, no shot selector, extra flamer damage, etc. Deathwatch gear may be Req for Sig Wargear Deathwatch gear will be available to obtain/req at plotpoints. Chapter Trappings are unaffected. Squad Modes: Normal. Codex, Chapter etc. Cohesion works as normal. XP and Rewards: Limited. If the game goes to extra chapters, we do it, if not: Morituri te Salutamus. Comments, complaints, screaming and peanut throwing welcome.
