The Gauntlet of Fenris


MaveriK

Recommended Posts

I will be proud to hunt alongside a brother, or I will go it alone.

 

*bows in recognition* hail mighty brother, I solemnly request you to join myself and another whelp (Khine) and teach us the true path of Fenris. With your help we can bring honour to the name of RUSS and ofcourse a few pelts and chunks of troll to the hearth haha

@eyeslikethunder - Indeed brother you may join our pack

 

@Dragan Stormwolf - we are all brothers and sisters of the Aett, welcome *passes flagon of ale* we shall run the Gauntlet together.

 

*... and lo did the Troll-Hunters of Fenris march unto the great plains of Fenris, two eager young whelps - Brother Khine straining at the leash, his chainsword growling like the warrior himself, bolt pistol held at his side and Young Blood Russ, chain axe revving, double edged short sword glinting in the weak sun, behind them strode the massively armoured form of Honoured Brother Warhorse - power fist clenching and relaxing, bolter across his back as eager as the young pups, following in his wake came Brothers eyeslikethunder and Dragan Stormwolf, Stormwolf's plasma pistol holstered, his grip two-handed and steady on his relic boltgun "Kraken Tooth" and eyeslikethunder carrying the pack's meltagun, strolling as if in the tavern, all arrogance and calm - yet all know beneath that demeanour was a warrior the like of RUSS himself - and so this band of brothers marched onwards... To Glory! To Honour! and The World's Ending!! ...*

:: RUNNING THE GAUNTLET ::

Users have to right to ignore this thread just as people have the right to participate. Please keep the roll-playing within this thread. We have to be more responsible with our words and actions, and try not to let the mindset cross over to other threads. This is the Fang, and we represent the Sons of Russ. Behave yourselves or see yourself cast out deep into the underfang.

:: SET UP ::

1) Pick your troop type and or teams

2) Roll for beast type (unlocking map associated with result)

3) Users place themselves on the map.

4) Roll for storm effects

5) DM/Fleshmaker decides where to put 3 of the same beast types on the unlocked map (unknown to players during the first round)

6) Roll scatter dice for wind direction

:: TURN SEQUENCE ::

1) Movement

2) Shooting (optional)

3) Close Combat

:: PACK WIDE RULES ::

And They Shall Know No Fear

Acute Senses

Counter-attack

gallery_24878_5332_53841.jpg

:: SIDE QUEST RULES ::

1) Indicate your character's location and actions to a designated DM/Fleshmaker. Post your instructions, it helps keep track of everyone on the trend and keeps everyone entertained at the same time. Lastly... PRAY to the dice gods!

2) Only three users (including beast) may occupy one tile. Each character has the Independent special rule.

3) Users have an option to join a pack of up to a limit of 5 members. Your pack may team up with several other packs. The more the better! start a gang just in case other Astartes chapters decide to try the gauntlet of Fenris.

4) Users are allowed to move two tiles in any direction, and assault on their third. Close combat weapons are temporary and are destroyed or left behind as your character moves onto the next tile. You can throw weapons, which counts as your shooting.

5) Predator and Prey. Using a scatter dice will determine wind direction for an entire round. If you're upwind from your prey, the beast gains +1 Initiative. If you're downwind from your prey then you gain the +1 Initiative.

5) Once a user fails his armour save, a leadership roll is made to see if he can still stand and fight with negative modifiers (-1 WS, -1 A, -1 I) the player breaks off from combat and restarts one tile back in any direction from their current location. Once a user fails his final armour save, the character is rendered unconscious either waiting for his pack mates to bring him back to the tavern or the Fleshmaker to bring him back to the Fang.

6) Once a user kills 5 of the same beast type, he or she is granted league member status for the Inglorious Drunkards thread. Once a user kills 7 of the beast type, he or she is granted to challenge previous Inglorious Brawler champions to a solo fight.

:: TROOP CHOICES ::

Blood Claw

1) Headstrong. As indicated at SW: Codex

2) Berserk Charge. As indicated at SW: Codex

Grey Hunter

1) Mark of the Wulfen, no rending

2) Wolf Standard. May re-roll only one failed armour save

I will add more troop choices... I'm just going to test this out by starting small and slow.

:: FENRIS STORMS ::

At the beginning of the game, roll a D6 and consult the Fenrisian Storm table below. Roll again at the start of each game turn, adding +1 to result for each full turn of the game that has passed.

1-2 The Storm Abates: The wind howls and snow smothers the ground. No effect.

3-4 Blinding Flurries: The driving snow obscures all vision. All shooting attacks suffer a 25% penalty to their range, rounding fractions up.

5-6 Brutal Winds: The winds buffet and pummel anyone caught in the open. Non-vehicle units moving in open ground must pass a Strength test or move as though in difficult terrain (One tile).

7-8 Howling Death: Moving swiftly during an intense storm such as this can bring death. Users that travel more than two tiles on the map must take a Dangerous Terrain test. (If failed, user is stationary for a full turn in their tile)

9-10 Ice-storms: Shards of ice lash the users, flaying the unfortunate. Every user on the map suffers 1 wound/glancing hit on the roll of a 2+

11+ The Wrath of Fenris: All of the above effects are in play.

As we are born to battle, so are we called to prove our worth time and again, through strength, courage and guile. War within. War without. War unending. That is how we live, little brother.
