YEAH SLIPSTREAMS!

(it's Brother Loghir here )

Now you can finally make your apothecary

Regarding hatred, fluffwise The Wraiths work mainly under Inquisitors of Ordo Xenos in The Ghoul Star and will utilize whatever weapon is possible to exterminate xenos that are a threat. So they have fought alongside Eldar and also use weapons taken from dead Eldar. I'll put "Necrons" as Hatred since there is no way to ever fight alongside them.

I Actually made Devastator 'Sniper' from the Iron Snakes

So yes, BS 64, Ignores BS Penalties to Long and Extreme Ranged Shooting and 0 Penalty for Called Shots. Since Full Auto is +20BS in Deathwatch, he's got BS 84 and can fire called shots up to 450m with his Heavy Bolter at no BS Penalty.

I hope he gets a Lascannon at some point so that he can shoot at peeps up to 900m away

He's totally gunning for Sternguard Duty.

[Black Cohort]

The plan for Irad Farsight is to make him a knowledgeable marine able to divine things well and with some ability at handling tech. My bionic hand counting as mechanicus implants will be handy.

[Skinrider]

haha sniper indeed!

Get a lascannon and you'll be able to make carvings at 900,with it

I tried to balance offence, defence, melee and ranged. Lets see if I'm the jack of all trades, or just "can't do jack"

We get a reroll and a stat swap? I had pretty terribad rolls, I'd love a reroll and a swap. I'm at 36 Int and 37 Per. I can't see anything, but it's fine I'd be too dumb to know what it was even if I did

[Slips]

Typically we've had 1 Re-roll and the possibility to swap two stats with one another so thats what I went with.

 

Also, I'll wait for our GM to confirm that my sheet is all fine and dandy before proceeding.

[Karack Blackstone]

One re-roll is fine, and a stat swap is also fine here.

 

Your character, Slipstreams, looks fine with a cursory glance; otherwise, everything after further review... looks great!

 

Your skills will likely prove a welcome addition to the squad!

[Slips]

\o/

 

Alrighty!

[Karack Blackstone]

Slipstreams, please review the OOC and IC threads at your leisure; I think that will best aid you overall, looking forward.

 

I am readying now the next post, and shall await both your post when able; as well, as noted in the OOC thread, there's the issue of a holiday weekend here in the States. I will endeavor to get out the next post and her reactions to you each in time, in one, likely massive, post.

 

Thanks for the sign ups and playing all, editing the OP of this Sign-Up thread now!

 

Edit: after reviewing this thread, and noting that no one has thus far applied a +5 of their choice, while each of you has applied properly the two +5 Chapter stat bonuses, I am thinking that each of you may hereby take the free, by your choice +5 stat bonus, with one, two part stipulation: said +5 must go into a stat that both does not receive another +5, and it must not go into your highest stat.

 

This is not set in stone, however, I think the idea that bringing up one stat limited to one of the "lesser" stats makes sense, while focusing too much on a great stat may end up really causing the character to overly specialize into said stat.

 

Rebuttals, thoughts, please? As always, please keep it civil, and according to board rules.

[Slips]

oh! I Totally missed the extra +5. Completely agree on it not going to our highest stat. Because I would 100% put it into Ballistic Skill to push Apollus to BS 69 (heh) before combat/gear modifiers.

 

Or other shenanigans.

 

I've updated my Character Sheet with a +5 to Intelligence.

[Boudan]

I did help myself to the free +5. I did not put it in a stat that received a chapter bonus.

[Skinrider]

Rerolled Int for 42, and put +5 into BS. I then switched Int an Toughness ...only 1 difference :D (I'll update my character sheet)

 

I SO want to get my Strength up to 60! ...but it was my highest stat :D sitting at a damned 54, how do I get it up by 1?!

hey if there is still a spot open i would love to fill the spot of an apothecary. ive learnt the basics for DW because ive got the books but ive never played or really looked at OW so im not sure how these aptitudes work. at work at the moment so ill have to wait till i get home to roll myself up a proper character.

[Skinrider]

Hi! We'd love another brother to our kill team

If I might make a suggestion. I play an apothecary in another game. What makes you different is the extra "+1d5 healing" on first aid rolls and the Medicae skill. However, in this system it's much easier to take skills "outside" of your standard skillset.

What we'd really love is a Techmarine that has the medicae skill and high Int (you'd want that for a techmarine anyway). Getting a Narthecium is only 10 req, and it gives you +20 to medicae and double the healing when you use medicae. The Techmarine has a lot of options only available to him, while he can do the job of an apothecary quite well with 1 skill and 10 req. This whole campaign is about retrieving lost tech

It's just my suggestion, I'm not going to force you to play any role you aren't going to enjoy. We'd love to have you regardless.

Irad has all the tech aptitudes and as a iron hands successor counts as having mechanicus implants for anything that is a pre-req for. He isn't and will never be as good with tech as a tech marine, but he can cover a lot of tech stuff.

You've got all the skills, but perhaps we might need some of the equipment as well that requires a servo harness. Plus it would be great to get 2 rolls on all the tech-use and knowledge skills, I think it might help us more than +1d5 on first aid

[Lord Heremes]

i would be fine with that idea. from a fluff perspective would anyone have any issues with me running him as an apothecary/techmarine mash up for my own custom chapter. something along the lines of how the space wolves have an apothecary/chaplain or how iron hands have iron fathers for techmarine/chaplain roles?

An Apothecary would be a great addition to the force.

All character info should be in the OP of one of my threads; I will link dive and put it in here for you, Lord Heremes.

Cool name Sand Wyverns! You'll need to tell us what chapter you use it as (it's easiest to just "re-skin" an existing chapter due to the aptitudes) although it seems it's Imperial Fists.

 

Remember you also get a free bonus "+5" in addition to your chapter bonuses AND you can swap 2 abilities.
