I really liked how he formatted his. It did inspire me to play around in a different style of background delivery.

 

And now that I look at them side by side, there are more similarities than I thought. Being noted for toughness, the tattoo (though Solomon's is more of an upper arm Marine style) and having been lone survivors. I really didn't mean to step so far into his theme. Though I think there are some differences. I'm not playing as much in the space of shame and atonement as Scourge seems to be, and I won't be going for Power Armoured Knight as my advancement angle.

 

I'm willing to make some changes if I need to though, no sweat.

No I think that you're OK with how he is

Welcome Valkenhayn, great to have you aboard!

 

Very happy to have another fighter on the team, I suspect in this final part of the story we will need them!

 

I wouldn't worry about the last survivor bit being similar. It's 40k, right? Everybody dies or watches all their friends die! :laugh:

Welcome Marshal Valkenhayn to our little band of doomed misfits.

 

Success so far: most of us can board a train, complete breakdown of public order and two dead hives.

In the business, we call this: foreshadowing.

 

And, officially @Marshal Valkenhayn welcome, good sir, to the arena of death!

Speaking of which @Necronaut are you going to get out of that room?

@Mazer Rackham sorry mate, I fell asleep while typing up my post. I have been run ragged this week.

I appreciate your time, mate. Go and get your head down. :turned:

The beeping and flashing lights get louder and faster and then...there is no explosion. The mechanical spider hops up and runs awkwardly away as a crude approximation of Yakety Sax blares from its internal mechansims.

The Arbitrator that offered Lady Gwynne a nice comfortable couch. I hope that with all the foreshadowing that he doesn't look like Paul Wingfield. 

 

That line about the couch is straight out of Terminator.

There are a lot of comfy couches...funny how good ideas just stay around, eh? :cool:

 

@Necronaut You might need to tweak your post a bit, as you're still in the Gallows, awaiting your ride. Maybe Scourge finds a shrine, and has a conversation with the Emperor instead of Locke? You can count it as a rest period.

 

And - at the moment of his doubt, as he asks for guidance and purpose, the sound of the Valkyrie comes in.

 

EDIT: Partially ninja'd, I'm busy wording my wisdom... ;) Nobody sweat it, easy to lose your 20 in a byzantine plot like this, after only 2 hours of sleep.

@Mazer Rackham well I screwed that up royally. Going to need to scrap most of that post and possibly save it for later. Sorry about the mess. I'll see if I can get something beaten together during my lunch.

 

Stay tuned!

TBF, there's not that much wrong with it. You didn't screw anything up - it's a good scene, just location is a bit out - that's all. :)
