[DW] Blackthorn and Swordhand: OOC Thread

[Commissar Molotov]

Feel free to go back and edit, should you wish!

 

There are an overwhelming amount of rules to absorb - too much for any one person!

[ashlander47]

It doesn't help with FFG changing the rules a little bit between the "settings". Like you said, Full Auto in DW is +20 and the multiple attacks with Swift or Lightning are completely different as well. Makes for a brain strain when you're used to one edition over the other.

[Mazer Rackham]

Yes, between that and the copy-paste, it gets a bit...sticky.

 

However - there's a very good reason you get the boost in DW, and I have been thankful for it many times

 

@ Reyner:

Pallan in the Apothecarion Placeholder filled

 

More to come once I finally sort Pallan's character sheet.

I even checked the rules and found out Lightning Attack doesn't have a penalty, even though I thought it did. If I ever mention incorrect rules or modifiers in my posts, could you guys help correct me?

In the earlier versions of the rules (dark heresy, rogue trader, deathwatch) lightning attack is three individual attacks.

 

In later versions they changed the rules to work like autofire - one attack that can result in multiple hits.

Does anyone in Blackthorn want to join Ekieo in a small tactical outing using Incariel shreading rounds as cover to trash the Rangers? ill be rolling for Ballistic if thats ok?

[Komrade_Atomic]

Would either Atreus or Vorr mind if Gideon took point as they entered? As a Tactical Marine it would make sense, but if you want your characters to lead I don't mind.

That was kind of what I was envisioning. The descritption said it was well fortified so I figured I'd claw a hole in the defences and let you take the lead as a tactical marine and our devastator can cover us as we go in. something like that.

I'm glad Blackthorn is taking to this prompt so well, and I've been impressed with what I've seen so far, well done everyone!

[Reyner]

Vorr actually did a stealth move he must be poorly!

[Commissar Molotov]

We need to discuss Vorr's XP expenditure - I think he needs to go on a shopping spree!

I updated my sheet earlier spent 2k on sound constitution, hip shooting and target selection. If he has any left to spend we can go shopping haha :D think last time he levelled I just put it in stats.

[Jeremy.Phillips]

Updated my Placeholder, hope you're fine with how I used Yeng and Argus to describe events!

 

All good, I think you did well. Exactly how Argus would've acted.

 

Apologist, any ideas on how to approach this situation? I was thinking we both just run in shooting to support Embe and close distance, but if you're already working on something different  we can go with that.

Placeholder updated!

Really loving the posts, brothers. It's been great to read!

[Steel Company]

Place holder replaced:

The surprise is sprung!

[That Beyond the Light]

Place holder updated and filled. If i need i can change bits so it either includes people or its just Ekieo on his own going hero mode!

[Commissar Molotov]

Well, looks like Blackthorn needs a hero (or heroic team-up) before tomorrow's update!

[Steel Company]

It's only a Wraith Guard, not a Wraith Lord.... but yeah, a good team up should drop it no problem.

[A.T.]

Does anyone from Blackthorn want to make their introduction via wraithguard?

[Necronaut]

Does anyone from Blackthorn want to make their introduction via wraithguard?

A dynamic entry?

[ashlander47]

It's as good an entry as any. Who do we have left who is unaccounted for?

[Commissar Molotov]

Greysight and Sabaan (both Nineswords and Xin are a bit absent at the moment.)

 

Artemios? Might be interesting, narrative-wise?

[Deadass]

I've got my own bit ready to post - should I wait until someone can get a placeholder up for the Wraithguard scene? It'd end up being easier to follow that way.

[Petragor]

Thursday is almost here! Can't wait!
