OOC thread

Full disclose... I searched the internet to know how long it took to put power armor and found that on a reddit post (it quoted the text of an old GW book). I just found too awesome not to copy it...

Hehe, nice find!

While we're waiting for the Servo-Skull to process our questionvomit, is anyone hankering for some expensive equipment we should budget for?

@TheVagrant
How does the ammo count work during a mission ? Do we have a fixed number of spare clips or unlimited normal ammo ? If we have a limited number of spare clips (let's says 3 for exemple), does that mean that a bolter with a clip selector has clips of 84 ammo instead of 28 ?

Each weapon comes with 3 clips as a general rule, nicknamed the Rule of Three (some special circumstance may provide more or less but they will be mentioned, also an ammo backpack does not come with extra clips unless requisitioned). Extra clip can be requisitioned for a cost. Clip loaded in the weapon count in this rule of three so a Bolter will be loaded and have 2 extra clips for reload and a bolter with fire selector will have its 3 clips loaded and no extra clips.

Special ammunition must always be requisitioned separately unless it is automatically supplied for a specifics mission. The special ammunition clip in the Starting gear of the Tactical Marine is in addition to the rule of three.

If I have a jump pack, can I also have an ammo backpack or do they occupy the same slot ?
By the way, sorry for all the questions.... ;)

Both jump pack and ammo pack use the same slot.

Questions are good, especially before we get into combat and realize we missed something that would have been obvious to your character ;)

Switching Chapter trapping is permitted at this time. Changing Chapter Trapping between mission is also allowed provided there is a reasonable reason for your character to do so.

For now, I think we are all feeling exactly how we'll rollplay our characters. For me, I think Stein won't help much in the planning part. He'll probably throw his two cents, even if unasked for :), but should follow orders most of the time. I'll try to play him as a (barely) patient and pationnate fighter. I swear once in a while (feel free to tell or pm me if it's too much... we are all here to have fun) and try to throw a few sarcastic joke from time to time....

I do think that a bit of antagonistic talk in a Deathwatch game adds to the experience, each character are expected to have very strong beliefs by definition. As long as it does not lead to sabotaging another character (with some notable exception if opposite core beliefs are triggered on both side, but that should not be an issue :P)

Hey Group! Could we please make a thread with each of our Characters names, appearance, chapter, specialty... so we can keep track for use in each other's role-play?

Okey dokey, will do

Hello Eclipse,

The player are just about to start the first mission. While it's too late to join them for the start, have a look at the forums, settings and character creation to see if you wanna create a character to join in at a later point!

New player? Fun! I hope most of us survive to meet them.

Phew, sorry, no IC post tonight I think. New meds making me pretty wobbly... gonna call in and see if I need to change anything.

No worries, take care!

Oof, if we don't get a decent success, I'm going to fate point that.

I think I've got it covered...
