I only got to run this game once for a group of friends but it was a complete mess. Would love to take another shot at playing it. This would be PbP, correct?

Correct, this will be a PBP game, hosted here. Welcome to the mayhem!

So, confused about what to roll up, I used @Lord_Ikka's Patented Randomiser, and got a Ministorum Priest.

 

Given this:

 

I was tempted to delve into Lieutenant Valea Konstanz, and her Trusted Bodyguard BoneEAD Sergeant (Brevet) Gratthogg from my short series of Ogryn-centric Rapid Fire pieces in the Fan Fic forum, but I think Sebastian Korlack, ex-Elysian Drop Trooper Padre is required by this unit...

 

Thoughts?

That sounds extremely entertaining, and tbh I was hoping at least one person would roll up a Priest.

Unless someone else wants to take the Priest?

 

I can change to whatever, really.

 

The Aptitudes thing is baking my noodle a bit - as Ikka says above, it's annoying, but I see the point.

 

From my limited understanding: If the Regiment gives me Weapon Skill and my Specialty gives me Weapon Skill, I don't double up - but I can swap for an Aptitude that is a Characteristic, like BS/Agility/ etc. Correct?

I’d be game if you’ll have another player. Haven’t played Only War before, but I am sure, as with the other games, that with some help I can figure it out. I think one of the humble bundles I picked up had the books, so should be able to figure things out.

 

I se we have a Rattling and a Priest, how about a Ogryn?

There's plenty of room still. Drop me a PM with your email and I'll get you invited to the game's Drive.

 

I am always happy to answer any questions you might have, don't be afraid to reach out.

 

An Ogryn would be totally acceptable, and I honestly think one in this campaign would be quite funny. Welcome aboard.
