A.T. Posted June 7, 2020 Share Posted June 7, 2020 If a roll is needed for Atratus' combat sight: 44 (vs awareness 65 without sight/hearing bonuses, or 90 with) To scan ahead if chosen for the first group, or to track the first if not.

Noctus Cornix Posted June 7, 2020 Share Posted June 7, 2020 (edited) Alright, and we're back! I think my trial assignment went extremely well, lads! Here's to hoping I hear back from them soon. Now, let's murder some bugs... Someone remind me to use my 'Scars of Experience' ability before we get into a big battle. Montesa will be able to impart his experience in dealing with Tyranids and I can give you all the Hunter of Aliens Talent for a full combat. That's +10 ws and +2 melee damage for everyone! :D Edit: @Molotov - I've updated my post here that involves my Augury test, Unfettered.

Commissar Molotov Posted June 7, 2020 Author Share Posted June 7, 2020 Awesome posts Noctus - I am happy to pause here to try to allow any Swordhand members to post. Reyner - removing your armour (and particularly exposing a wound to the open air) will expose you to microbial threats that could assail your transhuman biology. Vorr would know that - is there another way he can express his solidarity with the Librarian?

A.T. Posted June 7, 2020 Share Posted June 7, 2020 Post up. Atratus shall make use of his improbably high sneak skill (just need some stummers now...) to move up and spot for the group until the killteam can swim through and reassemble. Or at least he would if I didn't keep rolling 70s and 80s. At least he got the sneaking part right and stopped short of bringing total shame to his chapter.

Commissar Molotov Posted June 10, 2020 Author Share Posted June 10, 2020 Thanks for your posts, Apologist - really like Yeng's perspective. You players face a few decisions - will you attempt to destroy these spore flumes and affect the void battle outside (at the risk of bringing the swarm's attention upon you)? Or will you attempt to sneak through the chamber? Additionally, deciding the order in which the Kill-Team will move through the chamber may be a factor - although I can decide this for you.

Nineswords Posted June 11, 2020 Share Posted June 11, 2020 I say stealth. We're miles off course and increasing our chances of destroying the hive ship is better than any delay.

Slips Posted June 11, 2020 Share Posted June 11, 2020 Same, as much as blowing the sporeshield out could be helpful, having the whole ship begin to white bloodcell us right now might not be the best.
