Lord_Reven Posted May 20, 2010 Share Posted May 20, 2010 Well, im working on my DiY Chapter the lord of pwn (Not really, there called Blazing Angels, lord of pwn is a joke) and wile i was working this crazy idea hit me. Since im trying to avoid my chapter interacting with the chapters of ledgend (Space wolfs, Dark angels, Emperors Children ect.) I was thinking of a way to have them come into conflict without having to invent new chapters for my chapter to interact with! Then the forum hit me and i thought "Wouldent it be cool to have some other DiY chapters in my chapters history". So here is my challange to you: My chapter claims to be a Index Astartes chapter (meaning we follow the Index Astartes), but in practise my chapter uses its forces quite differently from other chapters. Companys 2-9 consist of 6 assault squads, 2 tactical squads, and 2 devastator squads, with full support from Dreads, Rhinos, Bikes, and Land Speeders. (Note; i know i cant make them uber lol with accses to an absurd number of dreads or land speeders. We work in the way of splitting all the forces out evenly between the companys.) Also when my chapter goes to war we always go in pairs. The pairs are 2nd with 6th, 3d with 7th, 4th with 8th, and 5th with 9th. During the course of a campaign one company (lets say 3d) will be the spear head. They will make most (if not all) of the assults on enemy positions and the like, wile it will fall to the other company (the reserve company) to fortify captured positions, defend my chapters supply trains, preform scouting operations ect. If needed they will assist in an assult. This way one company works as a battle company, and one acts as a "reserve" company. To make sure 1 company does not take to many casualties the companies will switch "jobs" between every other campaign. One other thing i want to add to this is that my chapter consideres there duty to protect humans. This is the reason they were created and we would react strongly if a chapter decided to kill off a few thousiand civillians to get to a few dozen traitours.. though ofcourse, if one human needs to die now so 1 space marine can be saved, then this is a sacrafise worth making, for this 1 marine will surely save etleast 10 others. Kind of like "sacrafise a few to save the many" kind of thing. Now if your DiY chapter is a fanatic about The Index Astartes and consideres any diviation from it heresy, we have a conflict right there! Or if your chapter consideres killing civilians to be "ok" so long as you get to the traitor you were hunting we have a new conflict there! Or if ur a pesky traitor and would want to attack my glorious chapter for some reason then i can add that to. I promise to be fair in my fluff writing (heck, if you want to make it yourself and just have me add it thats fine to) so even though my chapter is obviously better i wont totally stomp your chapter... much -_- (read my sig regarding the ultimate fate of mutants, aliens, and heretics.) Or if your chapter has taken place in some great battle, and you would decide to do battle along side my chapter i would be honored to add that to my fluff :lol: P.S. Please forgive my... stinky spelling... its late here and i have never been very good at it ^_^ Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/202027-my-diy-interacting-with-your-diy/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Normish Posted May 20, 2010 Share Posted May 20, 2010 Sounds fun! I'll submit my Chapter for your consideration A link to my IA is in my sig. Hopefully we could fit me in to my current events or something. We're sort of "the ends justify the means" in a lot of cases. We're pretty much Codex adherent too, though not fanatical about it. We are devout followers of the Cult Imperialis, which sets us apart from a lot of Chapters, so maybe we have something there. Hope I can get in on this.

Lord_Reven Posted May 20, 2010 Author Share Posted May 20, 2010 Hey ill join as well how long has your chapter been around. Havent totally decided on this part yet.. i was thinking of making them young, but now i think making them a bit older would give the fluff i HAVE thought of more.. realistic. I guess the 20th founding is a good place to start (if my intel is correct and there are a total of 26 foundings).

Brother Deadmeat Posted May 20, 2010 Share Posted May 20, 2010 Yes there are 26 founding i was think of starting mine in the 17th. I think this i before the Age of Apostasy. Edit: This might help it a short timeline and further down it has the Foundings http://www.bolterandchainsword.com/index.p...mp;hl=foundings Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/202027-my-diy-interacting-with-your-diy/#findComment-2406923 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lord_Reven Posted May 24, 2010 Author Share Posted May 24, 2010 Think i might drop the idea actually.. turns out that trying to tie in other peoples ideas into my origional... "story"... messes it up a bit. Maybe ill give this idea a nother try after i have etleast finished the 1st draft. Thanks to everyone who signed up tho :) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/202027-my-diy-interacting-with-your-diy/#findComment-2409974 Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Normish Posted May 24, 2010 Share Posted May 24, 2010 That seems like a good idea. If you build up a basic Chapter, then we'll know where ours stand in relation to it. In addition, we should be careful not to turn this into a role-play, and more into a submission of ideas for Chapter improvement by using other Chapters.
