Rogue Trader Posted June 29, 2005 Share Posted June 29, 2005 No need for PMs - we can sort it in thread, so everyone can contribute their ideas - it is collaborative after all ;) Ok, so far, what do we know? A crusade (which needs a name) is attacking the planet Odion. What else do we need to know? 1. Who's in charge? (I can write that if you want to use your dread character, No-one) 2. Who are the Orks on the planet? (Does the Waagh have a name, Who is the Warboss? Is it a major force to be reckoned with, or just starting off?) 3. Why are the Orks on this particular planet? 4. Why is this planet so valuable to the Imperium that a crusade force has been sent to liberate/capture it? Is it even the planet itself that's valuable, or some thing on it instead? I'm sure the answers to these questions will give us more questions in turn, but the more detail we have going in, the better <_< Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/78353-for-the-emperor/page/2/#findComment-903535 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Librarian- Melechor Posted June 29, 2005 Share Posted June 29, 2005 I think it would be interesting to have some kind of twist for Odion, nothing like a c'tan under it or anything <_< , but maybe it is a mechanicus experimentation world, or some other Important place. As for the orks, i think we should have a HUGE force if so many space marines are being sent.

Ferrata Posted June 29, 2005 Share Posted June 29, 2005 I suggest you do the battle vs a Chaos uprising, as this allows Chaos/Renegade DIYers to join in. The imperium side can be one of those armies where a number of chapters send a squad to, thus you dont have to have a really large battle to get everyone in. Its kinda like the B+C Legio, but not (because I would be shot if it was) Ferrata Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/78353-for-the-emperor/page/2/#findComment-903539 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Librarian- Melechor Posted June 29, 2005 Share Posted June 29, 2005 Sounds fair, maybe have chaos attack and a giant 3- way ensue. (because I would be shot if it was) Hoo man that would be funny. :ot: Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/78353-for-the-emperor/page/2/#findComment-903542 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest No-One Posted June 29, 2005 Share Posted June 29, 2005 the waaagh!! is led by warboss snotglob <_< and is a massively huge force hence large crusade, cant think of a good name for the crusade also maybe chaos is influencing the orcs ;) ;) Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/78353-for-the-emperor/page/2/#findComment-903545 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ferrata Posted June 29, 2005 Share Posted June 29, 2005 Good thinking Batman! You sound so like my real life mate (one you can actually see and poke) that I would think you were him, if it wasnt that you seem to have some interlect, while he doesnt <_< Batman Just because Melechor had a go at me, I will add some usefulness to this post. If you do the chaos idea, maybe have them just attacking a weak planet near the eye of terror, and a Space Marine "honour guard" have been sent, like the ultramarine one. Those chapters unable to send a large force can send a few specialist or marines to help the battle.

Librarian- Melechor Posted June 29, 2005 Share Posted June 29, 2005 Ok lets get back to the story, the marines being gathered to attack Odion, a world under attack by orks, why>we dont know, >Why the marines are there> we dont know. We need to figure out the why's. Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/78353-for-the-emperor/page/2/#findComment-903555 Share on other sites More sharing options...

ironloki Posted June 29, 2005 Share Posted June 29, 2005 Well you need to sort out all the details before writing up a finished article. So far im confused about the involvement of Orks and chaos <_< You need to have a good basis then you can start a new thread.

Librarian- Melechor Posted June 29, 2005 Share Posted June 29, 2005 Persona: Sergeant Galrain Warmongers 3rd Company Sergeant Galrain, Veteran, Chapter decided to send him and his veteran squad for their experience and skills/tactics against orks. Sergeant Galrain peered out of the window block of the thunderhawk gunship. Around him, the members of his squad sat with their hands clutched together, giving thanks to the glorious emperor. Over the vox, he heard the Pilot report"ETA to destination 20 seconds..." Galrain hadn't been in a major fight in almost a year. He had been busy training Warmonger Recruits, and he felt something, a ping, nervousness? He dismissed the thought as the Thunderhawk rear door slammed down. "Squad, check bolters, FOR THE EMPEROR!."

Ferrata Posted June 29, 2005 Share Posted June 29, 2005 You need to bash out the details of the story before you start writing. If you rush into this, it might be hot for small amount of time but it will slowly fall apart. The more time you put it organising it will help its survival Orks - His original suggestion Chaos - My suggestion so those who have fallen from the emperors busom can fight too <_< Ferrata Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/78353-for-the-emperor/page/2/#findComment-903569 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest No-One Posted June 29, 2005 Share Posted June 29, 2005 the main objective at the moment for the marines is to secure a battle outpost and rid the canyon mentioned earlier in my story piece i'll rewrite it in the new thread when we make it Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/78353-for-the-emperor/page/2/#findComment-903571 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Librarian- Melechor Posted June 29, 2005 Share Posted June 29, 2005 Ferrata, i was just writing a preview to my character, and as for the fluff, i think everyone should pile ideas in and choose what works together the most. So orks are attacking, and the space marines have to capture a small spaceport to land, we have that much, now what else?

Guest No-One Posted June 29, 2005 Share Posted June 29, 2005 im thinking that the chaos are slowly corrupting orcs to get to the relic in the planet and the marines have no clue about the relic but will find out later Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/78353-for-the-emperor/page/2/#findComment-903575 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Librarian- Melechor Posted June 29, 2005 Share Posted June 29, 2005 That sounds really great, though its a rip-off of many stories <_< Now we need to figure out who will be the commander, we need someones marine who is old and wise, maybe your dread?

ironloki Posted June 29, 2005 Share Posted June 29, 2005 im thinking that the chaos are slowly corrupting orcs to get to the relic in the planet and the marines have no clue about the relic but will find out later Are you sure Orks can be tainted by chaos? I never thought they could. Also why dont chaos get the relic themselves? why leave it to the orks unless this is going to be similar to the Dawn of war game storyline <_< Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/78353-for-the-emperor/page/2/#findComment-903580 Share on other sites More sharing options...
