Lysimachus Posted January 16 Author Share Posted January 16 (edited) OK, posting again so it's visible. So we've (maybe) got so far: 1. Tactical Marine - Brother Gerhardt, Black Templars (Necronaut) 2. Tactical Marine - Mantis Warriors (Mazer Rackham) 3. Tactical Marine - Space Wolves (Urauloth) 4. Tactical Marine or Assault Marine - Brother Asterius, Black Shield (Machine God) 5. Tactical Marine or Devastator Marine - Red Scorpions (AT) 6. Tactical Marine or Apothecary - BA Successor? (Xin?) 7. Tactical Marine - Star Phantom or Death Spectre? (Ikka) 8. Inquisitorial Acolyte - (Trokair) and if all of the above slots get filled, there are also: 9. Tactical Marine or 2nd Assault Marine (or Techmarine) 10. Tactical Marine or 2nd Devastator Marine (or Techmarine) Keep filling up those slots, Fraters!

Urauloth Posted January 16 Share Posted January 16 55 minutes ago, Lysimachus said: @Urauloth I know you did mention doing a SW, but if Iorek Redfang is transferred over and already ready to go, would you mind picking an alternative Chapter? Aw shucks. Sure thing, I'll save my Space Wolf for another time. Looking at the date, the Swords of Haldroth haven't been recognised as Blood Angel successors yet, they're still officially Ultramarine descendants who happen to be bloodthirsty berserkers - that's an interesting idea, but it also sounds like a bit of a hassle, and there's absolutely no info out there about what their heraldry etc was like before they became the Carmine Blades. I'm going to pass on that one, and go with... Guardians of the Covenant. Still want the tctical role!

Lysimachus Posted January 16 Author Share Posted January 16 (edited) Hiya I was just about to PM you, Mazer has decided to switch to a Mantis Warrior, so the SW is still open if you want it! Edit: Though either is good, I'd always be happy to have a Wolf and a DA (Successor) in the team, just for all the extra fun it brings!

Urauloth Posted January 16 Share Posted January 16 Ooh, tough call then - I do love the GotC for their First Legion throwback vibes, but I'm going to grab the Watch Fortress kennel while it's open and start rolling up a Space Wolf.

Mazer Rackham Posted January 16 Share Posted January 16 I like your moxie. Unfortunately, dude, I'm a few hours into flavouring my Mantis Warrior Tactical.... Xin Ceithan and Necronaut 2 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There seems to be an overwhelming desire for berserker type characters and urge of general blood letting in this set up… I’m not sure if the proposed murder mystery in question will even require leaving the Watchstation … Trokair, Lysimachus, Urauloth and 3 others 1 5 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord_Ikka Posted January 16 Share Posted January 16 Sorry for the late reply, I blame the cold. Looking at a Star Phantom or Death Spectre Tactical Marine. Will think up/fully make my decision tomorrow night when I can go through my books (will stay a Tac marine, just need to decide on chapter).

Well, if Ikka does a Star Phantom, that might be close enough? ...or I am I right that they don't do DA type stuff? 54 minutes ago, Lord_Ikka said: Sorry for the late reply, I blame the cold.

OK, so if Ikka goes Tactical, we don't have a Techmarine? That isn't a huge problem, and if we later get another player who does want to do a Techmarine, I can push Ikka's Tac down into slot 9.

Lysimachus Posted January 16 Author Share Posted January 16 (edited) As promised, I've created a Drive Folder with the blank DW Template inside and shared with everyone who has selected a Chapter+Archetype. I think I've got everyone's emails right, but if you haven't received anything, PM me? Otherwise, feel free to make yourself a copy and start rolling your stats and armour (and let me know which table you want me to roll the Armour History on?) If you've already got your Sheet together then please move it over to this Folder?

Machine God Posted January 17 Share Posted January 17 My Black Shield could swap Assault for Techmarine if that helps? I don't mind. Lysimachus 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Urauloth Posted January 17 Share Posted January 17 Vafri Bloodsong is almost ready, just a few last details to hammer out. (Do I need to take Carouse as a trained skill for 200xp? I feel like I should, because if it comes up and I don't have it, a Space Wolf getting drunk under the table by some non-Fenrisian would be worse than death, but I kind of want those points for an advance in Tracking or Performer... maybe the best thing is to get the skills now and worry about getting bonuses later?) @Lysimachus I rolled Mk VI armour, could I get one history roll from the core table and one from Battle Scars?

Lysimachus Posted January 17 Author Share Posted January 17 @Machine God I'll leave it up to you to decide, though I will say we don't need you to be a Techmarine if you'd rather stay Assault, as Tro's Acolyte has good Int and has taken Tech-Use Skill - she'll be like Mr Holger... but probably a nicer person... @Urauloth Of course, let's see... Core: Roll=10, giving you a choice of 9, 10, or you can wrap around back up to 1 Battle Scars: Roll=3, giving you a choice of 1/2, 3, or 4 Mazer Rackham and Urauloth 1 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that's a total of -20 to Silent Move and -30 to Concealment? I'm still new to keeping track of where all the modifiers are in the book.

I rolled a 10 for Armour so I'll choose Mk V and you can roll Armour History's from any table. Lysimachus 1 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xin Ceithan Posted January 17 Share Posted January 17 I rolled up a MK VI - which means I’ll probably have to brave the new GW Website soon when those new FW Apothecaries show up For history, I think that’s two? One from the core and I thought either “Legends of War” or “ Skill of the Artificer” might be fitting? (GM’s call) If we go with the Charnel Guard (which is my first choice, though the Space Sharks keep snapping up from the dark ) - are these allowed to be Sanguinary Priests (which is the first 500 XP ) and what Chapter Traits would they use?

Lysimachus Posted January 17 Author Share Posted January 17 (edited) Superb, I've got to go do some actual work now, but I'll sort out those Armour History rolls later today. As a side point, MG is looking for a copy of HtC. Does anyone know where he could purchase a copy? I've got a pdf, but I can't honestly remember where I downloaded it from... Edit: As another side point, would you believe that out of six players' Armour rolled so far we got 3 Mk6, and 3 rolls of 10 (letting people decide which they wanted to take). I had thought that by making it 1-5 on the d10, we'd get at least a few Mk7, bu it seems the dice wanted to give us something of an old school 1980's RT feel to this game! Beakies for the win!!!

Don't actually know were they are even sold these days, but I got mine (and a bunch of others DW books) from a Humble Bundle sale. So if you are after one to buy keep an eye on Humble Bundle, I think in the book section. Xin Ceithan and Mazer Rackham 2 Back to top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
