[DW:30K] The Serpent's Cowl (OOC/Discussion)

[Mazer Rackham]

@Necronaut No. Your familiarity with Legionary trophies etc, whilst generic at best, would be satisfactory to conclude there is no unit champion or leader. It is perhaps due to the attrition already suffered.

 

@Machine God The red is perhaps a unit marking or some such, or simple embellishment, and then of course the remains of whoever they've been inviting to breakfast.

@Machine God I had assumed that was just blood.

[Mazer Rackham]

It was intended to be blood, but by all means, deal with it as narratively as you will.

[Lysimachus]

To be fair, whether it's paint or blood, the WE covered in the most of it is likely to be the dude in charge!

@Necronaut - That's why I said that the person with the most claret all over him must be the leader

[Mazer Rackham]

I really think we must end this stereotypical assumption about the World Eaters, I'm sure they're all cultured, peace-loving folks who enjoy nothing more than a good walk on the beach, Barrymus Manelowus and a drink with an umbrella in it.

Gives a whole new meaning to 'club' tropicana, doesn't it...

Is that when Pina Colada becomes Poena Collider?

Changed Psychic Power and increased Strength.

 

Doesn't change anything in IC as Ashmon hasn't been in melee yet, Good for Hordes.

 

 

 

[Mazer Rackham]

Just as an aside lads, if PC's are going at the same Init Step, feel free to wade in when you've got five.

[Machine God]

Well if it's @Xin Ceithan that we are waiting on, then the waiting will be good.

No doubt a heavy flavour of fluff

Yay, Christmas!
Lock your doors, fraters!

So it's more of a Doctor When, as opposed to a Doctor Whom?

 

Regardless, he will see us now!

And to you, sir!

OOC: No sweat, daddio.

 

The World Eaters, either ignorant or contemptuous of the shot, continue to piledrive forward, great chugs of black sand spurting into the air as the train of blood-addled maniacs continues to peddle downhill, down the track to the fatal terminus.

 

Full Action: Run.

 

Torken [ ]

Sharrak [ ] 

 

 

Fixed that for you Torken has been and the World Eaters had already gone with a Full Action of Run.

 

 

 

[Mazer Rackham]

So they did - appreciated!

 

Next victim! Player!

I don’t have a good grip on the distance / technicality here -

Guess Sharrak either needs to get closer to the Battke Automata or / once he does there will be some sort of Tech Use Check to initiate the linkage / combat protocols?

For speed, we'll say a half move gets you there.

[Xin Ceithan]

So it‘s half Action for move and half action for tech use? 

[Mazer Rackham]

Yes mate, that's fine.

[Machine God]

Will post Sunday evening as I'm at Contingency in Norfolk at the moment. 

 

 

 

 

[Mazer Rackham]

No worries, fella, have a good time. 

[Machine God]

Posted, but I cannot edit the spoiler text.

 

29 = 92: Left Leg.

 

 

 

 

 

 

[Xin Ceithan]

First placeholder replaced…

@Mazer Rackham 

Before I roll for EPT for round three did Sharrak’s action in turn two count as making a connection to the Castellax ( I can see the intention but not the result of the tech use) and if so would that give me a bonus to the EPT willpower roll, or is this just to connect me to the squad comm. And be actually able to communicate and coordinate with the others?
